The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate

Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Avery I don’t know why most people act like something was wrong when an omega is mentioned. I was an omega and I was proud to be one. Madam Romanos’ words triggered a primal anger within me. If not for my incredible self-control, I would have gone against my principles and attacked her. So, because I was an omega, I had no right to speak. I had no right to say my mind? So I just have to take everything people give me without retaliation? So I should just bottle everything up? So funny and ironic! Omegas were people too. We don’t deserve any degradation or humiliation. These people that look down on omegas would still exhaust themselves to search for omegas to give birth to strong pups with powerful bloodlines. Still, this was a disadvantage. People just take omegas as breeders or as a plaything with no thoughts of her own. It was the same thing that happeme. Because I was an omega, my former pack’s alpha didn’t hesitate to try to sell me off to alpha Jake, my first mate. I was like commodity to him. I was like something he can use without repercussions. A doll with no right to decide her life. Dante did not say a word but I could see that he was on my side like a stable mountain. That was enough. Madam Romanos looked at me like I was a girl from the slum that was trying to get into a rich man’s bed in a bid to improve my lifestyle.

Her look burned me. I had experienced being in the lowest rung of the pack so I despised these kinds of looks. It was as if she was looking at an insect with a vain dream. “You are just like those women out there. You are like those gold-digging women that seek to upgradé their way of life through my son’s love. I don’t approve of you omega.” Her dislike was as thick as it could be. It laced through her tone. She did not even try to keep up public appearance anymore. I laughed from extrerne anger. This was one of the reasons why I wanted to be settled and balanced in my own affairs before coming to the Lycan City. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

It was because of behaviors like this. “Do you know that gold-digging is life? I love using rich mates like Dante to improve my lifestyle. What can you do about it?” I said sarcastically, “Do you have the ability to seduce a man enough for him to want to give the world to you? I don’t think so.” She wanted to give a reply but I stepped towards her. I had tried to give her hints to back down numerous times but she was like a dead chicken with no fear of hot water. My laughs receded into a warm smile. Then, my smile began to have hints of chilliness mixed into it, “Besides, do you think I need your whimsy approval? If I want to be with Dante, I will stay with him and if I did not, nothing you say would tie us together. You don’t have any power in my territory.” The quiet hall made my voice more penetrating. I began to turn my hands and fingers into sharp claws. “One more thing. I don’t take well to threats.” My smile dropped at this point and only a bloodthirsty light remained in my eyes. If I did not talk, Madam Romanos would categorize me as a fat cow that she could milk anytime.

I would be a sheep that feared her. It was better to show my claws early so people would not think that I was some kind of pushover. “Y-you! H-how can you do a p-partial shift?!” Stammers came from Savina’s lips while Madam Romanos had a pale face. Whispers abounded again from the crowd. “Is she a lycan? Why can she do a partial shift?” A voice asked. “No. She is not a lycan. She is an omega but what I can not seem to wrap my mind around is why she possesses some of our traits.” Another calm voice answered. “Wow! A special werewolf. Maybe she can be a good match to our king.” Another voice chipped in with wonder in their voice.. I ignored the chattering voices as I stalked towards both Madam Romanos and her supposed daughter- in-law, Savina. Now that I had said what was on my mind, my anger decreased drastically. I flexed my claws, “This time is a warning. If you cross my bottom line again, I can B not guarantee what might happen. I have an issue, it seemed like I can not control my claws.” I looked over both of them coldly, “You better stay out of my range.” After addressing them and overturning Madam Romanos’s plot, I was ready to leave this nonsense party behind. I would rather have a good rest instead of staring at the sc ummy faces of the people before me. I tugged at Dante’s hand, “Let’s go.” As I walked to the exit, Savina approached me with a purpose. I did not bother with saying a word to her. I had already insulted her, it would be hypocritical to act like a saint now. I was holding one pup while Dante was carrying two. We could not spare anymore time to hold hands now. Dante was walking by my side. Suddenly, as soon as Savina and I passed by each other, she fell unceremoniously.

I looked at her from my standing position. I did not have any intention to help her. Savina fell down on her own. I had not even touched a strand of her hair so why would she fall down like this? I scanned the people that attended this welcoming ball. Most of them were looking at me with judgy gazes. Although I had already established a bad reputation with how I threatened my mother-in-law, this kind of eyes showed my bad impression had deepened again. I returned my sight to the sprawling Savina by my feet. If an outsider looked at this situation, the person would be able to vouch with all possibility that I did something to her. It did not help that she was the person that was lusting after my mate. So this was her plan? I sneered before I held out my hand to her. She grabbed my hand and I hurled her back to her feet. I did not release my grip on her hand. I tightened my hold till it was painful before rugging her closer. “Quit what you are trying to do while you are ahead. My limits are wearing thin.” I whispered my warning. I turned to leave. When this fiasco was happening, Dante opted to wait for me by the door that led out of the hall. I wanted to leave but Savina’s next words shocked me. “Sister Avery, you don’t need to be this cranky. We would soon be serving the same man so learn how to accept reality like I do.” Savina said with a sweet voice that I was sure most men liked. I narrowed my eyes. Savina did not look like a person that had accepted reality. She was still playing a trick. She was not giving up.

What was she relying on? I darted a look at Madam Romanos. Her pale look had disappeared and she had regained the dominant look of a matriarch that had a lycan clan under her fingers. It was like all my imposing words had vanished into thin air. I ignored Savina’s words and I hurried to Dante Right now, I did not want to deal with them. They should bring their best bets and I would be ready to thwart their plans. Dante soon brought us to the bedroom that was going to be our living space. I looked around curiously, “Is thise your room?” The room we were in had colors that were predominantly black and gray. Someone would have been able to infer Dante’s personality from this hints. He was made up of both ruthlessness and power. Abstractness clouded his behaviour and actions firmly. He was not the type to dawdle. When I saw that there was no reply to my question, I turned to face him. I caught him staring at me For a moment, I felt subconscious. I cleared my throat. “Are you angry that I lashed out on your mother and your supposed mate?” When I mentioned Savina, my tone of voice turned into a sour one without my knowledge. Dante dropped the two pups in his hands carefully before walking to me. He caressed my face, “I like what you did there. I was just appreciating the gift the moon goddess have me. My mood brightened up a little. His praise were doing more than I thought they would. I was becoming too addicted. I hated and loved this feeling. I loved it because it was all I ever wanted but I hated

it because it reminded me of my original fate with the sc ummy alpha Jake. I hated the small suspicions I had at the back of my mind that did not want to go– away. I was wary of him changing and leaving me in the lurch. I was afraid that all the glittering things I have now would fade away into nothingness. I was not sure that I would be able to handle that. I was in too deep. My hands are tied. It was too late to come out.
