His plump mate (Rebel and Austin) by Buchanan novel Chapter 589

Adrian POV

The pack not respecting Sinclair is my fault. Now she doesn’t trust them to do their jobs, and I can’t blame her.

I grabbed her hand and led her out of the room, down the stairs, and into the dining hall. When we get there, everyone looks at us. Noses went up in the air.

I marked her; she’s mine. They better not test my patience.

“Who dares disrespect the beta female of this pack and my mate?” I asked in a low growl.

Everyone’s eyes widened. Sinclair’s grip tightened on my hand. She is nervous. She is a fierce fighter, a fucking genius, and yet she is nervous.

“Let me be clear about something right now,” I said loudly. I noticed my family sitting with smiles on their faces. I’ll deal with that in a minute. “When I walked out of my welcome party, it was from shock. Not because I was rejecting my mate. I needed time to come to terms with having a second-chance mate. Thoughts of rejecting my mate were NEVER on my mind. If I see my mate being disrespected, starved, or mocked behind her back again, you will answer to me.”

Aiden snarled and stood up. His heavy aura pressed down in the room, and necks were exposed in submission. “WHO DISRESPECTED MY BETA FEMALE?! STAND NOW!”

Five people stood. I looked at Sinclair. “What did they do?” I asked.

Sinclair looked shocked. “Um, the three women were saying that you were stuck with me and I wasn’t pretty like Amber. The two warriors were short with me when I went to the security room. Honestly, Adrian, I’m fine.”

I looked at the five standing. “KNEEL AND APOLOGIZE!”

Their eyes went wide, and then Aiden snarled again. Thalia also stood and growled loudly. The women, seeing Thalia growling, immediately kneeled and apologized. Then the guards apologized.

“You two are running extra patrols for the next week. If you need an attitude adjustment from there, I will ensure you get it!”

I demanded the omegas that let Sinclair starve come out as well. They were shaking. “KNEEL AND APOLOGIZE TO MY MATE!”

They immediately kneeled and apologized. I growled low. “You two will serve my mate from now on. You will do what she asks, without question. One slip-up, and you are in the dungeons. Understood?!”

“Yes, Beta Adrian.”

I looked at the other three women. “You three will move my mate’s things after dinner to the beta floor. You will unpack everything and put it in its place. If even one item is mishandled, you are going to the dungeons. Understood?!”

“Yes, Beta Adrian.”

I looked at the room. “This had better be the last time I have to address this pack about showing your beta female and my mate the respect she deserves. Without her genius, you wouldn’t have the security you have right now. Get your heads out of your asses and remember who she is!” I snarled.

Then I led Sinclair to our family table. Thalia jumped up and hugged her.

“Let me see! Let me see!” She said, jumping happily.

Sinclair looked at me, and I nodded. She pulled the collar of my shirt aside and revealed my mark on her neck.

Thalia hugged her. Followed by Rory, then Mom. After that, it was the guy's turn. Aiden, Dad, and then Jonah all hugged her.

While that was happening, Thalia, Rory, and Mom were hugging me.

Thalia raised an eyebrow. “About damn time!”
