Beta Dan's POV
There is silence in the room, my mate is looking at me with her beautiful doe eyes and I smile however, hunter growls menacingly when I notice Jason is holding her so closely against his chest.
"Mate," he growls again,
"Oh no no," my mate mutters, her voice delicate and smooth. She mutters a few cusses in another language as she struggles to free herself from Jason's grasp " Let my mate go," I growl and my eyes glow a different color.
Jason releases her and my mate walks out of the room but I grab her hand and the tingles I've heard from mated members of my pack erupt all over my arm and my inner Lycan howls.
"Where are you going, mate?" I ask,
"She's my mate!" An annoying voice across the room snarls. Jason's jaw is clenched like his fist.
"You're not my mate, you rejected me," she spats.
"Rhea, let's talk privately," I stare at my mate, so her name is Rhea. A name as lovely as her.
"No," she declares. Her eyes stare at me with blank emotion " let me go, beta," her voice is cold towards me and I whimper.
Her eyes dart to Leondre and she bows respectfully like a true subject to her king. We watch her leave, me staring towards the stairs she disappeared to.
"King Leondre, we are pleased to_"
"Save it and tell me why your pack members were beating her before we came," Leon says in an Alpha voice
My eyes finally trail down to Bailey, I forgot that she and her friend were cowering in fear in the corner.
"Well, well King Leondre," Jason is stuttering, at a loss for words.
"Rhea can defend herself just fine from puerile bullying," he says
"Alpha, your sister was beating a pack member and insulting her, do you call that ignorant bullying," I all but growl, making them flinch.
"Dan, baby, that cunt bitch insulted me simply because I asked her to make me a drink," Bailey tries to come close to me but I revolt against her. I don't ever want her close.
"Go to your mate, I'll deal with this Alpha," says Leon. I nod and go in search of Rhea but Bailey is on me like a leech.
"Baby, stop! That bitch can't be your mate," she screeches. I ignore her and follow my mate's scent but just like before it's everywhere.
