Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 187

Almost instantly   Alphas started to grumble  and walked toward the aisle only for Mateo to block it. Yet my eyes darted to the woman the few men that got up to grab their mates were headed. About 20 other Alphas nodded to Kat, a couple even motioned to  their mates in a nice gesture that they would be waiting outside for them- 4 however tried to remove their mates when Kat’s command rushed over them.

“All Alphas leave, Mateo will deal with you ” She says and Mateo’s lips tug up, clearly liking that idea as he grabs one by the back of his shirt as he tries to fight the command. He hauls him out the door before closing it behind him. Everyone lets out a breath.

“I understand some of you are afraid so I won’t force any of you, just hear  what  I am  asking, that is all, you are free to leave if you want” Kat tells them. They talk amongst themselves and one woman goes to get up, clearly petrified wanting to leave when  the woman beside   her jerks her back into her seat.

“Grow a backbone” The woman spat at her. The woman sits down, head hung.

“If she wants to leave she can, but I assure you everything said here, stays here. I will not force anyone to sign, it will be completely up to you if you want your names on my petitions. I want to change a few laws and- ”

“ No, you want to help your brother don’t pretend this is about the  laws”  A woman  calls from  the back somewhere.

“Yes, that was initially my intention until I came across a few laws that are in favour of no one, laws that are outdated and wrong. I won’t lie, I only looked  into these   laws and practises    to find help for my brother but once I started digging through them, I found more that desperately needed changing, you can sign whichever ones you agree on”

‘Yeah right you can just command us to sign” Another woman chimes in. Kat takes a breath rummaging  through the  documents before holding them up and showing everyone, she then dumps them on the table with a heap of pens.

“I   am not your mate’s, I am not Dominic, I don’t come here as your Queen, I am not here to dictate or force your will. I am here  as a woman, as a mother. The same as you, we are just women wanting a voice, wanting change, and the certainty our children will be safe, that is why I am here, I just want to fix things. I want to give you a voice too, everyone here is free to voice their concerns and as one we can work on changing them, helping each other” Silence falls and a few murmurs reach my ears.

“We sign, you will back us when we want something changed? You will hear us out?” Another woman asks.

“Yes, of course. You all think you are powerless because you aren’t the Alpha. Well law says you are just   as equal as them, you have every right to be heard , you have every right to stand beside your Alpha as equal, you are Alpha females. I am just asking you to step into the role, I know you are scared of  repercussions  and those  that do fear that. I promise,  you will  and can  have sanctuary  with m y pack. I have my own pack but as your Queen you are all pack, every pack is pack to me, we are one pack.  I  am not  fighting for  my  rights but  all ours, all our childrens so just hear me out” Kat says.

No one says anything and after a few minutes Kat picks up the top petition stapled together.

“ So how many of you have heard of this law? If a man of title finds their mate and the mate is underage, he has a right to take them, to preserve

their maidenhood to ensure purity and to ensure their bond will be completed or for other circumstances and the man or persons of title is in need of an heir for pack transfer? This is the stuff I want to change, how many of you would be revolted if your underage child was taken from before they could tell if the person in fact taking them, is his or her mate, ” Kat asks.

“ I will sign that one” Says a meek voice I instantly recognised as the woman from outside. The woman turned in their chairs and looked at her, some smiled sadly at her.

“What’s your name?”  Kat asks her.

“Blaire my Queen, I will sign. Garret found me and took me when I was 15 and half because he knew that law, killed my  father when he tried to stop him, my father was an Omega like me” She says getting out of  her  seat and strolling forward.

She hesitates before bowing slightly and taking the paper from Kat and walking over to the table, I see her look at the other woman. “I know at least 4 here who were dealt the same hand as me, get up!” She says yet none do.

“I have to go home with mine and I am willing to sign this, so get up! If not for yourselves do it for us who had no choice” Blaire says. Three more get up

and so does Terra and they walk over. Blaire turns and signs the document before handing the pen to the next.

“You call me spineless but yet you are scared of a piece of paper” Blaire says before walking back to her seat, the other woman I noticed followed her instead of sitting back in their original seats.

Kat stares at the crowd but no one else gets up and she sighs.

“Why?” I step forward and ask.

“Why what?” Amy asks.

“Why do you all demand change but  when offered a chance to change it you sit on your hands and do nothing?”

“ It’s not that simple, they are our mates, we live with them, they would see this as a betrayal” She explains.

“And why is that? Is it because they feel threatened, de -manned in a way? Or is it because they realise they broke that very law we are asking to change? How many here have kids?” Most of them raised their hands.

would fight to protect their kid, why aren’t you signing because signing that is fighting for the next generations right to remain children until they recognise their mates themselves, if your Alphas would fight for them why aren’t you, over ego is why. Kat  hurt  their egos because she is a woman, not because what she is fighting for is wrong
