Scarred Alphas



I continue to release my anger by punching Ezra over and over again even though mostly I am hitting him in the arms because he blocks his face with them. But then I am suddenly pulled from behind by the hair.

"Get off of him!" Bryn shours.

She manages to get me off of Ezra. I fall to the ground and then she kicks me on the side of my ribs.

The pain doesn't register at all. I get to my feet and as I am getting up, I put all my weight into my lunge, taking her down with me. We roll on the ground trying to take a bite out of each other. Even though we don't shift, these are definitely our wolves fighting.

She gets the upper hand on me and gets on top of me. Bryn lifts her hand up with her claws out and then swipes down at my face. Luckily, she suddenly goes flying back and I do mean flying. It takes a few seconds for her to come back down and hit the floor with a loud thud.

Colt growls at her and Ezra with his fangs and claws out. Ezra quickly helps Bryn up. She looks hurt but is still fine. "What are you all doing?!" The Luna and Alpha run outside. 'Are you crazy?!" Bryn screams at me taking deep breaths.

"Yeah! Apparently, I am!" I scream back as I get up. "Everyone here is quick to call someone crazy when they lose it but no one takes into consideration how they got to that point! And you two are part of those reasons!" I point at them.

"Shut your mouth, you filthy girl!" The Luna says walking in our direction.

'Let her speak!" Colt growls at her and suddenly takes me in his arms in a hug.

This shuts everyone up, even me. I was not expecting that, not in front of everyone.

The Luna stops in her tracks with wide eyes. The way she was coming my way was the way she always had done when she was about to strike me but Colt's words made her freeze.

The rage inside of me suddenly diminishes when he starts to caress my hair and I am even more stunned

The Alpha steps closer but looks calm. "What is happening here?" He asks.

While Bryn starts giving their own version of things, I close my eyes and cling to Colt, feeling a sudden sense of safety. Like nothing bad will happen to me because he won't let it. I have never felt like this before. I don't understand this feeling but... I like it.

"What the fuck are you doing?" Ezra suddenly asks staring at us.

Everyone stops talking and they look at us.

"What you should be doing," Colt says without even turning to him. His eyes fixed on me.

"What?"

'You heard me. You are her mate. It should be you doing this. But I'll gladly take over."

"What did he just say?" Bryn asks.

"Get your hands off!" Ezra shouts. "It was...it was you?"

Colt now doesn't say anything but Ezra is livid.

"It... WAS YOU!!" With so much speed. Ezra rushes in our direction.

Colt lets me go and turns to him. It happens so fast that all I see is Ezra flying back with a bloodied face.

There are multiple gasps from everyone who watches.

"Ezra!" Bryn and the Luna rush over to him.

"What did you do?" The Luna screams Colt.

"He got what he deserved," Colt says and then saunters back to me where he holds me.

'Colt!" The Lama yells.

"I think it would be best to take this inside." The Alpha says, looking around at the spectating pack members. 'In a more private area."NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Agree, Colt replies.

'War room,' the Alpha says and Colt nods.

Colt takes my hand and takes me towards the pack house leaving the others behind questioning each other. "Colt, what are you doing?" I whisper.

'It's time, Angel. Don't worry. Everything will be fine. No one will hurt you again."

I don't know how everything is going to be fine but when he says it, I believe it.

We walk past the Alpha's office until we reach a huge room with books and maps everywhere. There is a huge table in the middle that is just as big as the dining room table.

Once there, he closes the door behind him and leads me to the table where he turns around and takes me in another hug. We are completely alone at this moment waiting for the others to arrive.

"This is going to just make him angrier."

"Let it. This is about you, not him." He caresses my cheek as he looks into my eyes. "Are you okay?"

Now calm and assessing my body, my ribs hurt but I know I am okay so I nod.

"Good. You don't have to say anything if you don't want to. Let me do the talking." He kisses my head and then

goes to kiss my lips but the door opens and I pull away but Colt won't let me go. He still holds me.

They all walk in, talking and asking questions to each other. I can't understand a single thing.

"Enough!" The Alpha shouts. "Someone explain to me what the hell is going on!"

"Gladly." Colt says. "Cass is-"

The door opens, interrupting him.

Kaccy, Miles, and the Beta-Christoph-walk in.

"You called us?" Kaecy asks.

"Yes. Family meeting." the Alpha says.

The three of them look at me with confusion as I am in Colt's arms.

Ezra suddenly grabs our attention when he slams his fists on the table. 'Stop holding her like that!"

"No," Colt says in a calm manner.

Ezra growls but the Luna holds his shoulder. 'Calm down."

"What the hell is going on?" Miles mutters.

"As I was saying..." Colt starts again. "Cass here is Ezra's mate."

Well, there it is. It is out of the bag.

The gasps start. Everyone in the room was surprised except for those who knew. Ezra, Colt, and me.

"That has to be bullshit! He can't be mated to that Runt!" Bryn spits out.

"Watch your damn mouth!" Colt growls.

"Is this true?" The Alpha asks Ezra who doesn't answer because all he does is stare at me and Colt with anger.

"It is true." Colt says.

"Then why are you holding her in such a way?" The Alpha asks. "You didn't tell me this before and what is

worse is that you knew and you still chose to do this? She is your brother's mate."

"He doesn't want her!" Colt says.

Ezra growls at him. "Regardless of whether I want her or not, she is mine!"

I explode at those words. "Yours?! Are you fucking kidding me?! From the moment you found out we were mates, you hurt me, slept with women, ridiculed me, belittled me, and treated me like an animal. His face doesn't change. There is not even a twitch on it. I laugh. "You mean I am yours to do exactly that? That is all you want me for. To hurt me."

"Is this true, son? You knew all this time and did all this?" The Alpha asks Ezra.

"Of course not!" The Lama says. "She has to be lying."

'I am not!" I shout at her.

'Don't you dare talk to me like that!" She shouts back.

"This pack has a problem, and it is you." Colt suddenly says to her.

Her eyes widen. "What?"

"You coddle them. Make them believe that they are above everyone else. And look at them now. All they care about is what people will think of them, material things, and status. That is why he treats her this way. Because

to him, she is beneath him."

"You do coddle them too much, Alice." The Alpha says to her.

Colt shakes his head and continues. "People like him and those that would do something like this to their mates do not deserve mates. HE doesn't deserve her." Colt pulls me closer. "And if he doesn't want her, that is completely fine because I do."

"What is wrong with you?" Bryn asks. "There are more than a hundred she-wolves in this pack and you choose

to have her? Not just a low nobody but your brother's mate?"

"Bryn, shut the fuck up, you stupid little girl." He says to her.

She looks shocked, I am shocked, we all are but suddenly Miles laughs.

We all look at Miles and he now looks embarrassed. "Sorry." Ile says.

The Alpha takes a deep breath and looks at Ezra. "So let me get this straight. You knew she was your mate for

how long?"

'Since I turned eighteen,' I respond to him because Ezra stays quiet.

The Luna and Bryn quickly look at me with anger. They really don't want me to talk.

The Alpha doesn't seem to mind and continues. 'So, you knew she was your mate for this long, but you didn't want her and you chose to torture her instead of just rejecting her?"

'I never said I DIDN'T WANT HER! Ezra shouts.

Now I am the one that is confused here.

"She is my mate. I'll want her regardless of how I treat her. SHE IS MINE and she is mine to do what I want

with!"

This pisses me off so much. 'FUCK YOU!' I shout.

I start sprinting towards him but Colt immediately grabs me by the waist. "YOU SADISTIC SON OF A BITCH! You tortured me all these years and you think that I will ever want someone like you after everything that you did to me? NO! So fuck you! Fuck you because now. I am the one who doesn't want you."

"You are MINE!" He shouts again.

'I reject you, Ezra Beaufort. I reject you with ALL OF MY SOUL! I HATE YOU!"

He suddenly jumps in my direction but Colt immediately pulls me back and grabs him by the throat. He

slams Ezra to the ground and squeezes his hand on his throat.

"Colt! Don't!" The Luna shouts.

"Son!" The Alpha shouts. Colt slowly gets close Ezra as he loosens his hand. Try to touch her again, and I will break your neck.' He

whispers with a growl.

"That's enough, Colt. You've made your point." The Alpha says.

Colt lets him go and backs away but takes me with him further from all of them. Almost to the end of the long

table.

The Luna helps Ezra up but you can tell that she is now angry.

'No. I will not allow this!" She shouts.

"Allow what, mother? She is mine now," Colt speaks to her but he doesn't take his eyes off me.

'No, you can't have her. I forbid it! Neither of you can have her!"

"Yeah?" Colt says. His voice now scares me a little. He looks at them with a few seconds of silence until he

speaks. "Well, I dare any of you to try and stop me. Go ahead! Try!"

The silence now stretches. No one speaks up. 'Enough, enough..." The Alpha says sounding tired.

He paces for a few seconds and then stops. He looks

Ezra. 'I do not have the power to make you reject her

but if I could, I would. Colt is right. After what you have done, you do not deserve to have her as your mate."

"But-" The Luna tries.

complain.

'It doesn't matter who she is! If he didn't want to be with her, he should have rejected her from the beginning. Instead, he-' He takes a deep breath. 'I have no idea where you learned this shit behavior but it sure as hell

wasn't from me! I would never do something like that to your mother!" He looks at Colt looking agitated. "Colt, you'll have no objection from me. Do what you wish."

"What the fuck?!" Ezra shouts. "You are only doing this because you want him to be Alpha! You always favored

him!"

The Alpha turns around with a ludicrous stare. "Do not test me, boy! You do not want to be on my bad side.

And word of advice, if you don't want to feel what comes next, accept the girl's rejection. Don't say I didn't

warn you." Ilis eyes scan them all. "Now leave us!"

Ezra is pulled out by Kacey and the Beta. He doesn't try to stay but he doesn't want to leave either.

The Luna walks close to us and points at me. 'I don't know what kind of spell you have over them, you witch!

But I will not stand for this!"

"Enough, Alice, the Alpha says.

"No!" she shouts and walks away slamming the door behind her.

The Alpha-now looking stressed-gives Colt a sideglance.

"He wasn't wrong. I favor you, always have. You were born to be Alpha...so don't make me regret this."

'I have every intention of taking over the pack." Colt says.

The Alpha nods. 'Good."

He now looks at me and I freeze.

"Are you ready for this? Being the Luna of a pack this big won't be easy."

Uhm...what? Did I agree to this? I don't remember saying yes but...I never said no either.

Well...shit...
