Of all the times that Jeff would come, he chose the moment I was having an internal battle with myself when my heart told me who I loved, but my soul was pointing me to another, to the one I was made for.
Jeff is the last person that I need right now.
I was holding by a thread and he was only there to cut it.
He found me instantly even though I hid behind the mountain of food.
“There’s the guest of honor.” Jeff cheered, pointing towards me and making the entire area go quiet. It was obvious he was drunk, his legs barely keeping him up.
Sebastian and Benedict stared at each other from across the table, my mate’s hand still on my thigh. As if a silent order was given, the nameless pack sitting around the tables stood up, their faces hard and intimidating.
Jeff grinned, looking delirious as he waved everyone away. “There’s no need for that.”
“Jeff,” It was my old Alpha, rising from his seat and giving Jeff a reprimanding look. “You’re not supposed to be here. I commanded you to stay away.”
My father even gets up, his frown present as was his disappointment. “Listen to your Alpha, boy. Leave.”
The old Alpha visibly swallowed as his gaze nervously drifted towards Sebastian, who had not moved. He knows what Sebastian can do and would prefer not to have it on his lands. We were a peaceful farm pack and our old Alpha had done his best to make that happen. “Go back to your house and do not leave until I tell you to.”
But Jeff merely walked forward, ignoring the Alpha’s command, too drunk and stupid to follow it. “This is a pack celebration. I should be here. I’m from here. She’s not.”
He stares at me again, eyes wide and eager.
“What’s your name again?” It was Benedict, standing from his seat to intercept him. The charm was on, smiling and looking mischievous. He was trying to deescalate things before it destroyed the night.
Jeff looked offended that Benedict didn’t know his name. “It’s Jeff. I was at the School of Love with you. Don’t you remember?”
Benedict blinked in confusion. “What? I didn’t catch that. Did you say Parker?”
“No, uh, Jeff.” He says dumbly, staring at the beauty of Benedict.
The Beta was glowing under the twinkling lights, all the attention on him. Pretty boy. With his golden hair and bright blue eyes, his smooth milk skin and easy smile, there was truly no one as beautiful as him.
And the entire pack was in awe of him.
The hungry stares of the girls followed his every move.
Even Jeff had to take a step back from Benedict, overwhelmed by the man’s incomparable good looks.
“Oh, it’s Patrick? Of course.” Benedict guessed, his hand to his chin as if he hadn’t heard Jeff’s name at least a dozen times already. “I’m really bad with names.”
“Jeff.” My supposed best friend repeated impatiently. “My name is Jeff. You know me.”
Benedict snapped his fingers, smiling widely at his eureka moment. “Oh, yes, I know. It’s Paul.”

Jeff growled, frowning at the Beta. “It’s-”
Benedict interrupts him, his smile ever present. “Listen, Pablo.”
“Pe-” He didn’t get to finish.
Benedict shook his head. “Pedro, don’t talk when someone else is speaking. That’s just rude.”
Jeff was red in the face. “My name is not,”

“Pinocchio, shush.” Benedict humbles him by placing a finger in Jeff’s face. “You’re being rude again. Let me finish.”
By the end of it, I even forgot what his name was. I’m sure everyone forgot as well, enthralled by the playful Beta.
“Pringles isn’t a very hard name to remember. I know what I’m doing.” Benedict shrugs, taking Pringles- Jeff by the arms and tugging him away from me. “Listen, you should leave before you’re escorted out by someone else. And you will not like that someone. Trust me. Let me take you back and we can continue our night peacefully.”
“Shut up, pretty boy.” Jeff yanks his arm away from Benedict and squares his shoulders. “You have no power here. The city pack isn’t welcome in these lands.”
Even with his bravest expression, trying to make himself bigger than he is, he was obviously no match for Benedict or anyone from the nameless pack.
But Jeff still thinks he’s the best warrior.
The best of everyone.
Jeff turns to the silent crowd of onlookers before chuckling. When he spoke, it was as if he thought himself the Alpha making a speech. “We’re here tonight to celebrate an old pack member. She’s my best friend. My neighbor. My childhood partner in crime and she was supposed to be my mate. She promised me as much. Didn’t you, Vareesa?”
I’ve never felt so small as everyone turned to look at me.
From beside me, Sebastian is sitting and drinking a dark liquid in a crystal glass/He purses his lips as he continues to hold me, his hand possessively on my thigh while his fingers try to soothe my tenseness. If he was angry or amused, he did not
show it.
It was clear Jeff was beneath him and he glanced at Benedict with a blank stare, making his Beta step forward once more. “Time to go.”
Jeff merely walked closer to me. He was so out of his mind that he didn’t even notice the large monstrous man sitting beside
“I have to say, I’m proud of you, Vareesa. She is the perfect example of the girl that can get whatever she wants by using her pussy.” The air felt like it was squeezed out of me then. But he wasn’t done. Of course he wasn’t. Jeff points towards Sebastian, a smirk on his lips. “Weren’t you just having sex with his Beta? Everyone was talking about your time at the lake with the pretty boy. You were always alone with him. And now you’re mates with his Alpha. Is the nameless pack’s Delta a boy? Because Vareesa would sleep with that one too.”
The entire area was even more quiet. No one took a breath, no one even moved.
Except my father, who jumped out of his chair. “Boy!”
For the first time, Sebastian acknowledged Jeff by giving him a look that could kill. It was so chilling that even I had to swallow back.
Sebastian silenced everyone with one look, even my father, who could not move or speak.

The air around Sebastian felt toxic and before I could react, Sebastian’s glass was suddenly soaring through the space between them and was smashing against Jeff’s face, shattering the glass into millions of pieces. The shower of broken crystal glass made everyone duck and shout.
Jeff falls backward, the force of the throw knocking him down. Sebastian stands from his seat then, throwing the table in front of us to the side, hitting against the wall of a house and shattering even more things. Sebastian didn’t care. Nothing stopped him as he walked towards Jeff in a deathly stride.
Each step, each muscle was like a death sentence as the monster showed itself. No more was quiet Alpha standing supportively beside his mate. In its place was every rumor, every scary story that was told about him.
