SWNOVELS The Lycan’s Rejected Mate: The Epilogue: Chapter 114
Anaiah’s POV
Many people have come to witness the fight. They are cheering and Alpha Juan Potter is nervously talking to his Beta in the corner while glancing at Rhea. The Alpha female looks confident enough, and many people are supporting her, however, I can tell she’s anxious but her mate holds her hand.
I walk up to them and smile.
‘Hi!’
‘Luna!’ They say at once, they didn’t expect me to come here.
‘Are you ready to kick that scum and take back your pack?’ I ask, touching her arm. Rhea chuckles at my choice of words but nods. The chattering crowd suddenly goes silent and I turn my head to see what had caught their attention. A smile makes its way on my lips; Leon. He is walking towards us and exuding an untouchable aura that makes everyone submit to him.
Once he reaches us, he wraps an arm around my waist and kisses me.
‘I thought you weren’t coming,’ I say.
‘I changed my mind,’ I nod and he faces Rhea,
‘Good luck on your fight tonight,’ He says and to Danford he says; ‘ We have placed men everywhere and the Alpha’s family is been watched,’
Dan nods and Leon grabs my hand, we go to stand in the corner, no one comes two feet near us because of my mate’s intimidating aura.
The two opponents face each other as someone explains the rules, it can be a fight to the death but if one concedes, it’s over.
‘You seriously want to do this little girl?’ Growls the Alpha. Rhea scoffs. The two change words, while Rhea is calm, the Alpha is angry.
‘You were never worthy to be Alpha, you only got this pack because you ambushed us. Today, after years of waiting, I’ll take back what’s mine,’ She says exuding her Alpha aura
‘I’ll die first before anyone can take this pack from me! Your father was a weak man that’s why I killed him,’ Alpha Potter is trying to make Rhea lose control but she manages to maintain calmness.
‘And for that, you’ll suffer immensely,’ She spits and lunges at him, and the two fight in their human form. The fight is violent and fast, Rhea is a good fighter but Potter has had years to try. The advantage Rhea has right now over him is her agility. They are throwing punches and kicks at each other and are bleeding so much already. The Alpha is the first to change into his brown large Lycan and then Rhea does too. Her Lycan is a pretty dark grey one with red paws. She is not as large inside as Potter but she’s fierce and makes Potter run for his money. She is quick to scratch his eyes and nose, making him really uncomfortable and disarming his vision. The crowd burst into cheers every now and then, my eyes sway to Dan, he’s watching the fight attentively, his fist clutched and eyes glaring daggers at the Brown Lycan. Potter makes to crawl her arm badly and push her to the ground but before he can pin her, the female jumps up and switches their position, how did she do that? I watch in awe as the female bite down on his neck, Potter’s large frame is on the ground but he doesn’t surrender
‘Concede, Potter,’ Someone from the crowd shouts.
‘Yes, It’s over,’
‘Kill him,’ An older woman says. The Alpha’s daughter is shouting, begging her father to fight back but in that position she has him, he can’t escape, the only way out is to concede but Alpha Juan Potter is a prideful man. He keeps struggling.
‘What is she waiting for to put him down?’ The crowd wanders, and my pity-felt gaze falls on Rhea, she doesn’t want to kill him. CRACK.
A lot of things happened at once, Bailey screams and cries fill the air, I’m assuming from his original pack and the rest of the crowd burst into cheers, cheering at Rheanna for killing Potter. I am on my way to them when shots are fired and the crowd scatters, running in different directions. My mate pulls me behind a tree and not too far away a gunshot sounds again, and Leon is gone from me, I search in the crowd with my eyes for him and find him, tackling a man to the ground, it is the former Beta, he is lying on the floor in a pool of his blood. A howl sounded and I turn to see Dan, killing another man, there is a gun on the ground next to him. I rush to Leon and inspect him for any injuries
‘I’m Okay,’ He says, looking around in the crowd. The people were gone, only our warriors in uniforms remained, they pinned brut men to the ground.
‘Rhea,’ Dan calls and I turn to her too, she is sitting on her legs, her eyes watching the ground before I realize there is someone there, the Alpha’s son, Jason. I approach them and notice his chest has blood, he is shot three times in the chest and is barely breathing.
‘He… He – just jumped in front of me,’ She murmurs. Her hands are shaking slightly, not knowing what to do, Jason keeps chanting the words sorry to her with difficulty. Blood is coming out of his mouth.
‘Ja- Jas, Jason, don’t talk please, you need medical care,’ Rhea’s voice is quivering.
‘He won’t make it, the bullets used are silver,’ My mate says, he doesn’t give a damn about Jason as he shouts out orders to his men.
‘My love,’ Dan is overcome with calmness as soon as he sees that no harm came to his mate. He crouches down and closes Jason’s eyes.
‘Thank you for saving my mate,’ He whispers.
‘You FUCKING WENCH! You’ve killed my brother too!’ Shouts Bailey, she’s a crying mess and is being restrained by a warrior.
‘It should have been you who died, cunt Rhea, not my poor brother!’ She’s been hysterical, Dan waves his hand and they carry her toward the packhouse.
‘Rhea, how are you doing?’ I ask as Dan helps her up, her eyes meet mine and tears flow down her cheek, shaking her head furiously.
‘I’m not fine,’ She cries, Dan carries her into his arms and takes her to the packhouse, leaving my mate and me to clean the mess.
‘Well, we have a long night ahead of us,’ Leon sighs, and two of his men appear, instructing that the assailants should be locked away after getting their statements’ Also we need a report and how did they manage to bring in guns to such an event? Weren’t they searched first?’ I ask the head of security, the man looks confused.
‘We searched everyone for weapons, Ma’am but…’ He continues to… say what must have happened and after doing all we had to, it was almost in the early hours of the day, we were tired and I was hungry. We go to the packhouse and rest in a guest bedroom.
