Jasper's POV
For some reason, I became instantly angry after Charlotte gave me a piece of her mind. Maybe because her words which might seem like an indictment to many are actually true. Yes, whenever I set my eyes on her, I have this lustful feeling that clouds my reasoning, or should I say that's my animalistic side at work? Probably.
But that's not the only feeling I have towards her because there's this feeling of possessiveness that makes me want to kill anyone who looks at her way because she's mine alone to look at. Mine!
"Alpha, here." Fred said as he stretched a bag of clothes towards me.
I took the content of the bag and put it on, then walked out of the training ground. Today has been a hell lot of unpleasant dramas to crown it all, I have this feeling it just started.
"Alpha we received a message that…"
"That what!"I exclaimed like a wounded lion, and he quivered backwards with his head bowed.
To be Frank, I don't even know why I'm letting out my frustration on him, but it just felt right. Had he uttered another word I could have smashed his head on the ground since I can still feel the rage in my heart?
I continued walking towards my office, deliberately leaving my car behind because I felt that I would feel better if I track for a while. The thought of Charlotte's facial expression when she said those words made my anger escalate more, and I swear that I'm trying my best not to shift right now.
"Jasper, she just stepped on our ego and pride, and you didn't do a thing about it, you just stood there listening to her as she made her words trample on us." my wolf said within me
"What the hell are you trying to gain by doing this? Leave me alone!"I screamed at it.
"Maybe you've really lost your ability as an Alpha for your mate to talk to you in that manner with resentment in her words." He said again.
"What do you expect me to do to her? Fight her? Beat her up? What? And in case you've forgotten we're the cause of her hatred towards us."He's not helping at all, rather this mind argument with him is making me lose it the most.
"We caused what? You should know that when you decided to fall in love with Anna, you didn't confer me and neither was I ever supporting you choosing her as your mate!
And then when we finally found our mate you decided to only use her for your benefit, the worst is against her people and when she opened up her emotions in front of you, you didn't even attempt to pacify her, all you did was to stand and…"
"Enough!"I roared out in anger as I halted in my movement.
Fred moved five feet away from me and bowed his head while trembling, I must have acted like a mad man. Ohh this is crazy and irritating at the same time.
"Hey there son, are you alright." My mom's voice brought me out of my train of thought and I turned to my left and saw my mom and Anna walking out of the car.
"I'm fine you don't need to worry about me, please carry on, the elder must have arrived."I said then pecked my mom on her cheek though feeling reluctant to do the same to Anna, I did anyway.
"Take care." She said to me while still boring her concerned looks on me.
In no time after the nagging of my wolf subsided we arrived in front of my skyscraper. I was about to walk into the first floor when I saw a convoy arriving and I knew immediately that it must be the elder. I stood and waited for him to step out of his car.
"Good afternoon, great Alpha of the Crystal moon pack." He said with an obvious fake smile as he walked towards me.
"Good afternoon too."I responded to him while bowing briefly then took his outstretched hand into a shake.
"I'm very pleased to be in one of the greatest packs of our time, indeed you've done an impressive job, what people say about the Crystal moon pack can never be underestimated."He smiled broadly while pretending to be looking around his surroundings, but I know better than to believe any word that will ever come out of this mouth of his.
I have been in my office as the Alpha for over five years now, and I have met corrupt elders like him who comes to a pack and demand for the moon to come down on earth and roll.
"Thanks for the compliment, I will be pleased if you would dine with me upstairs before we begin." I offered for mannerism's sake.
"I will be pleased to." He responded with that funny sinister smile of his.
We walked beside each other into the first floor and all the staffs walking their bowed to us. Then Fred led us to the elevator and in no time we arrived in my mini apartment which is on the top floor. While dinning he engaged me in random conversations and I contributed where, I think, is necessary.
After eating we walked out towards my car as my driver had already arrived with it. He drove us directly to my house as he wants a secluded meeting and I see no reason to deny him that.
At our arrival Fred ushered us again and the first person we saw is Charlotte. She was walking out of the kitchen and the anger she made me feel resurfaced just by staring at her.
I turned to the elder when I heard his words, "We are here for an important discussion and not for chitchat."I said as I stared into that forest green eyes of his.
"Oh! Now I recall that you have an alliance with a particular Alpha's daughter right?" He asked and turned to me, but then I turned and began to climb the stairs.
But I didn't hear nor feel movement behind me. I ceased on my steps and turned back and saw the supposed elder staring at my mates back as she walks into her room. Mine?
My eyes flipped to blue and I balled my fist together. Trying to stop myself from bouncing on him. Just then he turned towards me with that devilish smile of his never leaving his face.
We walked inside my office, and he sat down on a swivel chair facing mine as I took my seat as well. "Jasper I heard from a reliable source that you want to wage a war against the Lotus Pack." He stated with a creased eyebrow.
"Why would I do that to a pack I just formed am alliance with? How does that concern you in any way?"I asked as I was getting impatient with his presence in my pack.
"The existence of the council of elders is to maintain peace and tranquility. You can't just wage a war against a pack that didn't do a thing to you, I know that you think your father's immunity covers you but then…"I interrupted him immediately.
"Enough of that! You aren't here to interrogate me, are you? So, drop that? Whatever I do or doesn't is none of your freaking business!" I yelled on top of my voice.
"You can take your leave."I said as I stood up from my seat.
The fact that there's a mole in my Pack is enough reason for me to be angry, and then he has the offertory to spout rubbish as though he controls my life.
"Jasper how dare you speak to me in that manner!" He yelled.
"This is my Pack and I have the right to drag you out of here!"I groaned in annoyance.
"Jasper, please have your seat, it hasn't gotten to that." He said with a pleading voice.
"I have numerous things to do, please what else do you want to say?"I inquired while sitting back on my seat.
"Well, won't you give me a little token before I leave?"He asked with a devilish smile and I narrowed my eyes at him.
"Like what?"I inquired and his smile broadened.
"I want to have the lady I say downstairs, I want her to warm my body for the…"
TAA H!
