Rejecting the Alpha Twins

Chapter 172

Fiona POV

“Stay here where it’s safe,” he instructed, and then before I could make a sound, let alone refuse, he was gone and racing out of the doorway, leaving all of us dumbfounded. Alpha Max was right behind them. Celeste cowered behind the desk, causing me to give her a disgusted look. For somebody who claimed they wanted to be Alpha, she certainly wasn’t doing her best to live up to the title. She was acting like a complete coward. Regan and the others abandoned us, also racing off to save the pack, leaving Celeste and me in the room together. Great. The last thing I wanted or needed. I expected Celeste to take off running as well in support of her parents and to help save the pack, but she just stood there, looking completely lost. What in the hell was wrong with her? Why was she acting like this? I knew she could fight because I had seen her training before. She wasn’t exactly weak, but that had been in human form. Now that she was an Alpha wolf, she should be even stronger, I thought dumbly.

“Aren’t you going to help?” I hissed, motioning to the doorway and raising my eyebrows as I looked at her expectantly.

She bites her lip and then shakes her head. “I can’t…” she stammered as I looked at her incredulously. “I’m pregnant, remember?” she pointed out.

As if that was an excuse when innocent people were dying. Sure, she was pregnant, but she could at least help the young ones to safety- do something. Even without shifting, there were jobs to do.

“You’re also an Alpha wolf, aren’t you? Is the loss of pack members truly nothing to you?” I vented. “You’re able to shift while you’re in the early stages of pregnancy. These are our people out there. You wanted the title of Alpha. Shouldn’t you prove you can perform the job?” I glared at her, unable to hold back my feelings. I had never been so disappointed in her my entire life. Even my own mate was out there fighting for the good of the pack and this wasn’t even anything to do with him. How could she just act as though this didn’t affect her?

care? Innocent lives could be lost, and she was standing behind the desk, refusing to help her own people. I had never stared at her so disbelievingly. Celeste had her faults, but I never thought she could sink this low. I despised her now.

I lose the baby, then what will Alpha Max do? I don’t see you going out there,” she added darkly. “So how about you don’t judge me when you’re doing the same?” she accused, her voice rising

selfish, arrogant, condescending, pathetic excuse of a human being I’ve ever met. You’re right,” I told her as her eyes widened and she stared at me, “I’m not out there, but I’m about to be. You stay here,” I told her meaningfully, raking my gaze over her and shaking my head in disappointment. “We wouldn’t want you to break your nails. If this had happened when you were made Alpha, you wouldn’t hesitate,” I said knowingly as she flushed and bit her lip, “but because you lost the title, you’re about to make everybody in the pack suffer. I can’t believe you, Celeste. I always thought you were selfish, but this…” I gave

then took hold of myself. I couldn’t let these people die, regardless of the grudge I had against this pack. It wasn’t in my nature. I looked around desperately for my mate, but

my claws down its back as it bucked me off, and then 1 rolled easily back onto my paws, staring challengingly at it. It lunged towards me, its jaws snapping, foam frothing at its mouth. I dodged it easily and ran my claws against its midsection, hurting it severely as it let out a small howl of pain. I didn’t have time for this. I was aware of how many innocents were still on the grounds. I jumped back on top of it and quickly severed its neck from its spinal cord, allowing its lifeless body to drop to the grass, and then raced
