Two times rejected Luna, the desire of all Alphas - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 – Happy again
Allessia’s head lowered, knowing that Alpha Idris was right, but Alpha Denzel’s response caused everything in her to come alive once again. “That is why I will be here to train her.”

“You will do that?” Allessia crushed into Alpha Denzel, hugging him tightly as a result of the excitement cruising through her heart.

She had had enough of being belittled by Alpha Idris over and over again. His utterances caused her to lose her self-esteem at most times, but she never complained.

Alpha Denzel frowned and pushed her away, but Allesia was not upset, knowing that she had broken barriers.

She was even surprised that he didn’t change his mind about making her his beta. “Don’t think I will go easy on you.”

His voice carried a blend of threat and amusement, and Allesia smiled and asked him, “That sounds scary, so how long are you staying?”

She wanted to know how long she had to train with him. Alpha Denzel had no intention of training her, having someone to do the job for him.

However, he did not make his intentions known. “Until you get a better understanding of things. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

Allessia responded eagerly. “I won’t.”

Alpha Idris had enough of their exchanges, his glare on Allesia turning cold. It seemed that her admiration for Alpha Denzel paid off, as she got to work with him.

“Great, just great,” Alpha Idris said and stormed out in anger. Adira stared at Alpha Denzel once again, pain registered in her eyes before following suit. Alpha Denzel didn’t spare her the slightest glance, and her heart bled.

“Thank you, Denzel,” Allessia said excitedly. Alpha Denzel knew it was time to draw the lines for her. His voice turned cold.

“Show me some respect. It’s Alpha Denzel for you.”

Allessia stood up and glared at him. “Then it’s beta Allesia for you.” She stood akimbo and challenged him.

Alpha Denzel massaged his nape frustratedly. “I think I made a mistake. You should go back to your pack. I don’t think Alpha Idris’ car has left yet.”

“No. no. no. I will be good, Alpha Denzel,” she quickly began to haul her luggage upstairs when Alpha Denzel spoke behind her in a serious tone.

“You don’t like him much.”

“How can I like him when he always tries to get into my pants? He doesn’t see me as a sister, and I can’t complain to his mom,” Allessia said bitterly. She wanted Alpha Denzel’s comfort but knew it was better to keep her distance.

A blend of emotions swarmed in Alpha Denzel’s eyes as he felt like a failure. Allessia wasn’t happy in the Litha Moon pack but kept it all to herself. It was good that he made her stay.

“That’s because you are not his sister.”

Allesia nodded her head as Alpha Denzel took her luggage from her, carrying it for her to the beta’s room. The omegas and the few warriors around were shocked, wondering about the relationship between the two.

“I know, but his mom treats me so well,” Allesia said honestly. Alpha Denzel pinched her cheek when they got inside the beta’s room.

“That should be enough for you.”

Allesia looked around, her joy knowing no bounds as she sat on the bed. “So where is Luna Valerie?” She asked. Alpha Denzel smirked.

“I will assign her to you, so I will take you to where she is, but do you want to be announced to the pack first?”

Allessia thought for a while and retorted, “Let me see Luna Valerie first. After my training, you can introduce me to the pack.”

She had profound respect for Luna Valerie, hoping that with her around, Alpha Denzel’s help would not even be needed. After all, that woman had a lot of experience.

Earlier, when Adira had taken Valerie to the Luna’s chamber, Alpha Denzel instructed one of the warriors through mindlink,

‘Prepare the cottage at the secret garden. Get some omegas to clean it and move Luna Valerie and her things there.”

“Yes, Alpha,” the warrior responded promptly via mindlink. As the Alpha addressed Valerie by the title of Luna, he discerned that Alpha Denzel wanted him to treat Valerie with the respect of a Luna.

What was shocking was where the Alpha had instructed for Valerie to be taken. That garden was a sacred place he never allowed anyone. It was his late mother’s place of relaxation, and after the tragedy, Alpha Denzel ensured it was well kept, but no one ever lived there.

Not understanding why, his responsibility was to obey orders and not to ask questions. He went to the Luna’s chamber with another warrior after Adira left for training. As one of them carried Valerie’s belongings, the second one moved to carry Valerie.

“What are you doing?” Valerie had fear in her eyes. Though injured, she was ready to defend herself until she heard the instruction,

“The Alpha told us to move you from here.”

“To where?” She asked worriedly, wondering why he changed his mind. It wasn’t as if she had hope that Alpha Denzel would move her to a better place than where she currently was.

“I’m afraid I can’t tell you,” the warrior replied politely. Before she could say anything, she was blindfolded and moved through the back door of the packhouse.

Valerie fell in love with the garden the moment the blindfold was removed from her eyes and she was dropped gently on her feet. “This is beautiful.”

“You shouldn’t let the Alpha hear it,” the warrior warned. “This place is sacred to him. The late queen single-handedly built this place and spent a lot of time here with him before her death.”

Valerie was saddened. It was around eight years ago when the tragedy was announced. It was just like her when she lost her dad.

The Alpha and Luna of the Evergreen pack were found dead with no traces of the cause of their death.

“Is this where she was killed?” Valerie asked curiously. The warrior shook his head, pain registered in his eyes.

“No. But we can’t say any more.”

“I understand. It’s still beautiful,” Valerie remarked. She intended to keep the place well, just as she had seen it, but she could still not help but wonder why Alpha Denzel would allow her to live here when it was so special to him.

“Inform us if you need anything after checking the cottage,” the warrior said, awaiting her instruction, but to his amazement, Valerie was so in love with the garden, she made no move to look around the cottage.

“I don’t need anything. You can go.”

“You aren’t afraid?” He asked, looking around. The place was nice but also secluded from the settlements in the pack. It was deeper in the woods.

“What is there to be afraid of? Flowers?” Valerie remarked casually. Plucking a tulip, she lifted it to her nose, inhaling the sweet scent before stuffing it inside her hair.

Being here, it was as if she was in a different world. The warriors left, and Valerie remained in the garden, playing with flowers like a kid. She even had a lot in her hair.

“Luna Valerie,” a familiar female voice called. Valerie turned to see Allessia running towards her.

“Allessia,” Valerie responded before seeing Alpha Denzel and lowered her head. The only thing she felt for him after everything was gratitude and fear. He never tortured her like he promised in front of the crowd.

He was about to say something when his phone beeped. Quickly, he retrieved it. Seeing the caller ID to be Godic, he walked a distance away and answered it.

“Alpha, I have sent the video of Kyle’s confession to you. Please check.”
