Mindy turned to Talia. “She obviously came to seduce your man. What will you do with her?”
”You should make an example from her. Beat her, strip her, humiliate her, so that no other woman dares to come like this.”, Zina said from the side. Everyone knew about women clinging onto Dayson and trying to get close to him, but Zina remembered Cassie who was coming to their packhouse and bossing around everyone like she owned the place, and Zina hated it.
With Mindy being distracted, Jade scrambled up to her feet. Kneeling on the floor was embarrassing.
”You must be joking.”, Jade said breathily. “Ahh!” She cried and fell back down to the floor.
After a long second, Jade looked up to see who pressured her with Alpha’s aura now. Dayson, Talia, Mindy? But it was none of them because the one who was staring her down was Dawn. What the hell?
”Do you think it’s a joke to seduce someone’s mate?”, Dawn asked Jade through her teeth. “Even if you don’t understand how important a fated mate is, you should know that they are together because the Moon Goddess arranged it, and getting between mates is going against the will of the Moon Goddess. Prepare to face the consequences!”
Jade groaned as Dawn’s pressure increased to hold her down on the floor, and she struggled for her face not to get squished on the carpet.
Jade couldn’t believe this! When she saw Talia bringing food into the study, Jade assumed that Talia was an Omega, but now she wondered if all females in the room were Alphas. What the hell was this place?
George’s chest puffed with pride when he realized that Dawn was the one pinning Jade down. That’s his mate! He taught Dawn how to control her aura, and she managed to direct it only at Jade, and she did wonderfully.
Talia looked at her girlfriends who were angry with her, and Talia’s anger sizzled away. At that moment, Talia got an idea.
”Dayson”, Talia called.
”Yes!”, Dayson responded right away.
”What do you do with enemy spies?”
”Spies!?”, Jade shrieked, realizing that this was taking a very bad turn.
”You came from the Silverfur pack with an intention to trick and seduce Alpha Dayson so that you can manipulate him and use his resources. If you succeeded to become Dayson’s Luna, you would get access to what he has. Were you planning to use those for the benefit of the Silverfur pack? Isn’t that what spies do? Or is it better to say, thieves? Which one are you, Miss Jade?”, Talia asked.
”No, no…”, Jade stuttered, happy that she could get up, but she didn’t dare get all the way up to stand, so she stayed on her knees. “I had no malicious intent. I mean, I wouldn’t try anything underhanded. If Dayson was not interested, I would…”
”It’s ALPHA Dayson!”, Talia snapped. “You have no right to address him in a familiar way. Get it?” Talia waited for Jade to nod, and then she said, “Continue.”
Jade hated this treatment but there was nothing she could do other than cooperate. She swallowed her grievances with the thought that she will get her revenge, later.
”I came for a visit. If I verified that Alpha Dayson found his mate and that he was not interested in me, I would leave.”, Jade said.
”I see.”, Talia responded thoughtfully. “But I’m not sure if I should believe you. How can we confirm that?”
”I can use Alpha command on her.”, Dayson said. “Don’t strain yourself. Let me do it.”
Talia refused. “Her mind seems fragile, and she barely held it together the first time. If Jade returns to the Silverfur pack as an imbecile, Alpha Adam and Beta Milo might give us hard time.”
”Will you send her to the dungeon?”, Mindy asked.
Talia shook her head. “That’s for people who did wrong and Miss Jade claims that she didn’t come here with malicious intentions.”
”You don’t plan to let her leave like that?”, Dawn asked.
”How can we let her leave? She just got here.”, Talia responded. “Didn’t Miss Jade say how she came here for a visit? We should allow her to stay and prove her sincerity. After all, she is Beta Milo’s daughter, and that counts for something.”
Zina was frowning while wondering what was wrong with Talia. “You want to let her stay here?” It didn’t make sense.
Jade was also looking at Talia with confusion obvious on her face. Was Talia going to let her stay in the packhouse? Something didn’t seem right.
”It’s the polite thing to do.”, Talia said to Zina. “Ask Rose to prepare a room for Miss Jade in one of the buildings where Omegas are staying.”
”Omegas?”, Jade asked in disbelief. She never stayed with Omegas. It was either in the packhouse or in luxurious hotels. Other than being a world-renowned model, she is Beta’s daughter!
”You didn’t think you will stay in the packhouse, did you?”, Talia asked Jade. “That’s for high-ranking guests and being Beta’s daughter doesn’t qualify you for such a privilege because you don’t have any ranking. Don’t worry, our quarters for Omegas are satisfactory, and we won’t bully you. Just as when any non-ranked member visits, we will ensure you have a place to stay, and food will be provided. You can eat in the community cafeteria or cook for yourself. As a non-ranking member, you will get duties assigned during your stay. However, since you need to dispel our doubts about being a spy, we will have warriors watching over you. If you skim on your duties or do anything suspicious, it will be a reason for your residence to move to the dungeon.”
Jade’s mind was spinning. What the hell was this? Wasn’t she just being held here to work as an Omega? She had fashion shows and other things to do!
And why did Talia say ‘non-ranking’ a hundred times? It was on purpose!
”I came here to visit Alpha Dayson!”, Jade exclaimed.
”Did you invite her?”, Talia asked Dayson.
”No.”, he responded before she could finish her question.
”Are you friendly with her?”, Talia asked her next question.
”No.”
Talia turned to Jade. “Then, Miss Jade, your visit is one-sided, and you are intruding. Do you think that anyone can invite themselves as Alpha Dayson’s guest? You can submit to my conditions, or we can send you to the dungeon right away. It’s your choice, Miss Jade.”
Talia pursed her lips and spoke to Dayson. “We should call Calvin to do a scoop on Miss Jade. If WW Magazine publishes an article about how women coveting you are setting themselves up to work as Omegas in the Shadow Fang pack, it might deter some of these pampered misses so I don’t need to deal with trash.”
Jade’s face was arranged into a dejected grimace and if looks could kill, Talia would be sliced into a million pieces. Jade was never insulted like this in her life!
”Who are you?”, Jade asked Talia.
”That is something you should have found out before coming here, before assuming I’m an Omega, and before you tried to take my mate. Because you see, Dayson carries my mark on his neck, and he is MINE.”
Talia was distracted by the pride and love that poured into her from Dayson and he was definitely turned on by Talia claiming him as hers. Silly Alpha.
Talia needed a moment to compose herself before continuing to talk to Jade, “Instead of hating me for making you work for repentance, you should be happy that I didn’t break your legs. How will you model when you can’t walk? If you act suspiciously or refuse to do work, warriors who are watching you will break your legs without the need to check with us…”
Jade stared at Dayson who was nodding obediently at Talia’s words, and Jade couldn’t believe that she didn’t notice it before. It was there. He was marked. It meant that he submitted to his mate. Alpha Dayson submitted? It was unbelievable! And that only made Jade even more wonder who Talia was.
Jade cursed under her breath. After her last fashion show, she heard that Alpha Dayson announced his mate to the Elders of the Shadow Fang pack, and she decided to investigate the situation. On her way here, she called her father to confirm if Alpha Dayson really found his mate, and he told her that those were unconfirmed rumors.
Jade didn’t suspect that anything was off. Over the years, there were many women associating themselves with Alpha Dayson, so Jade assumed that it was one more fake news, but now she realized that she got herself into a heap of trouble. Will she be able to get out of this with her life intact? What if they really break her legs?
Maya and Jaeden entered the living room to find the scene of Jade kneeling on the floor with Talia, Dawn, Mindy, Dayson, George, and Gideon standing in a loose circle around her.
”What did we miss?”, Jaeden asked.
They were both out in the field when Dayson called them to come to the packhouse because Talia lost consciousness, and this was not what they expected to see.
