Rejected To Be Your Second Chance novel Chapter 69

　　~Kade~

　　The warriors circled us, but we kept walking. They followed behind us, keeping their distance until we reached the pack house.

　　The door opened up, and the former Luna stepped out with an apathetic expression on her face, and the fuchsia dress dragged on the ground behind her.

　　"Where is my husband?" Judging by her tone, she didn't really give a damn about him or her son. "He’s back at our pack, and he won't be leaving anytime soon," I said, inviting my wolf to step forward. The warriors braced themselves and got into their stance.

　　My warriors were calmly awaiting orders.

　　Her eyes shifted, and she looked around with her head held high. A nervous laughter echoed from her lips, and she shook her shoulders.

　　"What is this?"

　　I turned my head, looking over my shoulder.

　　One of my warriors grabbed a man who stood inches away from him and snapped his neck. The fight was on. Several of us shifted into our wolf form, and everyone moved in. It was laughable how badly they fought, and one after one, their bodies fell to the ground. One of my men took down three of their fighters, but they had orders not to kill unless absolutely necessary.

　　When I saw the first warriors panting, blood trickling down his face and one his fingers having been cut off, my wolf howled loudly up at the sky, and they all stopped.

　　We looked around, meeting each of their tired gazes, and my men stepped back. The first one, a young man, fell to his knees and lowered his head.

　　"No! What do you think you’re doing? Get up, you mutt!" Clarissa yelled from up the stairs with her hands grasping the wall.

　　"Get up! Fight them!" She screeched.

　　The door opened up again, and a girl walked out with her nose in her phone and a look of boredom on her face.

　　"Mom, why the hell are you yelling? I'm trying to listen to music, and you’re ruining it," she whined.

　　Finally, she lifted her head and saw the scene in front of her. She sighed, flipped her phone away from her face, and said, "Is Sebastian back yet?"

　　"Clarissa and Antonia, you are hereby banished from the grounds and will live out your lives as rogues unless you wish to challenge the Alpha," Mason called.

　　"What does that even mean?" Antonia, the daughter, asked with a snide tone, glaring at her mother. "It means that from this day forth, the Red Moon Pack is under the leadership of Alpha Kade." Clarissa ran down and approached me. Everyone else backed away, the warriors had gotten up, and were watching their former leader run in steam with smoke clouds coming out her ears.

　　"My husband came to help you, you ungrateful—" We emitted fierce growls while snapping our jaws towards her. She fell to the ground and crawled backwards.

　　I was sitting in their kitchen; Tracey came home not long after we arrived, and they all sat down around the table.

　　"Please tell what happened," Samira, Laylas mom, said and placed her hand over mine.

　　"What is this shit I'm hearing that you’re our new Alpha now?" I shared a glance with Layla's father, whom I had discussed this with when we came back to check on Tracey. She was all healed and looked good as new, which was nice to see.

　　"I am. Sebastian and his father are at this moment locked in our dungeon. His mother and sister have been banished, and I am your new leader." Tracey smiled from ear to ear and bobbed her head. "Cool. I always wondered why nobody kicked that shitty family out years ago," She said and took a bite from the brownie that her mom had put out.

　　"Kade, Layla," Henry said sternly, and I bowed my head. This was going to be a nasty conversation to have with them, but better I got it out of the way because something told me I'd be needing their help.

　　I told them everything, every little detail from start to finish.

　　The part where I had treated her like shit, though I phrased it differently, was especially hard. Their eyes condemned me silently, and as the story progressed, their faces contorted in worry for their daughter and sister.

　　Tracey leaned back, her chest rising and fell faster and faster, and she looked with a frantic gaze at her parents.

　　"We have to go to her." She pushed the chair back and got up as she headed for the door.
