Chapter 13

" Are you guys kidding me! Rosie is the best. She is ger than Jemima" Ashley input.

Seriously speaking, People need to learn about fighting logic. It's not about being popular but rather the strength from within. They all underrated Jemima just because she was of lower rank.

" Who cares, what I need right now is my Tommy" Lena said as she dragged us by our hands.

We all chuckled but allowed her to dragged us to the dining room.

***

Jemima was annoyed, she had put her all in practice but still ended up losing. This isn't right at all, the same thing always happens all the time and it's becoming quite suspicious.

She punched the wall and winced when she felt the pain in her palm. Jemima pulled off her now dirty clothes and went into the shower. All her life she has always been the loser and she hates it with passion. The pack members aren't even giving her the respect she deserves all because she was a mistress daughter.

Losing her mother was the worst in her life. If her mom was here right now, things would have been different, she thought. Life has its way of setting things that now she doesn't care anymore about what people think about her.

A few minutes later, she came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body. She started at the mirror at her now puffy eyes from the tears. She was the definition of her mother. The dark hair brown eyes and the body were all inherited from her late mother.

This is why people look at her differently when she is being referred to as king Alpha's sister. They all have blond hair unlike her.

The King alpha is the only one that stands by her, he always believes in her and this is one reason why she respects him a lot.

Speaking of Rosie, Rosie is more like a family friend but the Queen welcomed her into the palace-like her daughter. At times she does rub it in her face just to make Jemima jealous.

Jemima sighed loudlyicked a dress to wear and went down to join the rest for dinner.

***

King Alpha sighed already getting tired of how Rosie kept going on and on about her win. She just won't shut up. His parents praised her making it even worst.

" oh..poor Jemima" his mother the queen said in fake pity.

He rolled his eyes. He picked up his fork to start eating when the sit beside him got dragged. He raised his head to see who it was when it turned out to be Jemima.

" I'm sorry I was late," she said curtly then sat down.

" It's nothing dear" Her father the former king said. " I just got informed now by Rosie about the fight "

Jemima faked a smile " Oh yeah. I'm sure she told you she won anyways"

" Don't speak to your father like that " the queen scolded and Rosie grinned secretly.

Jemima took a deep breath " I'm sorry"

King Alpha dropped his spoon " Allow her to breath for goodness sake, the girl did her best and the least you could do was to hail her but here you are scolding her for something she didn't even do wrong. If I was in her shoes I'll also give you the same reply as you" he got up and left the table after saying this.

Jemima smiled happy that someone was on her side, after all, her big brother. The queen glared at her sane with Rosie.

The former king sighed " Let have our dinner"

Jemima needs to be told twice, she dived in immediately.

***

The beta walked into the study looking restless.

" Alpha I think we have a mole in this palace "

King Alpha closed the myths book he was reading. He looks relaxed " What happened?"

" The new instrument you designed was found in the Savannah park. We got information that someone sent the picture of the instrument to the pack to spite you" he explained.

" This is outrageous! I need you to find the mole. I want him dead!"

The beta nodded " Will get to it now " he bowed and made his way out.

King Alpha glared at the door in a daze as if having a word with his wolf.

***

" By the way, Melissa? When are you joining the fighters?"

I gave Lena a look " I don't know. "

" Yeah, that's true. Melissa has always love to learn how to fight and I think this is the best opportunity for you to join" Ashley input as she took a sip of her water.

" Girls calm down, I'll join when it's time for me too. I don't want to rush things since we just got in." I explained.

Lena nodded " Yeah you are right "

" Anyway, has anyone thought of who the two fighters were? What is Rosie's rank in the pack? I want to know especially how the pack members were supporting her, unlike Jemima who doesn't have many supporters" I asked wanting to know.

Ashley wiped her mouth " Well from the information I got, her father is also an alpha. He is a close friend of the former king Alpha" she whispered.

" Really? How? Wow, this explains a lot then. What about Jemima?"

" I don't know much about her " Ashley said with shrug.

Lena told us to come closer which we did " I heard some people saying the is a daughter of a mistress. The former King Alpha's mistress who is late now "

I was flabbergasted" This makes her the King Alpha's kid sister!"

She nodded " Yes but in this pack, they don't respect any mistress child which is why you saw what happened at the arena."

" This rule is useless. Jemima has more rights than Rosie, she is also an alpha's daughter even worst a former King Alpha's daughter. This is not fair to her at all. She has all right " I was angry.

Ashley gave me a look " Why are you so concerned for her? She doesn't even care and shockingly enough she doesn't know you. Truth be told, Rosie is far way better than Jemima "

.

" That's your opinion but in my own opinion, I kinda prefer Jemima to Rosie. Rosie seems greedy for power and if I'm not mistaken, she wants the king Alpha" my wolf unexpectedly growled out surprising me myself.

" are you sure you are ok Melissa?" Lena asked in concern.

" I...i I don't know why my wolf growled out" I said in confusion.

" Maybe she's been wanting to talk to you but you weren't answering"

I nodded trying to believe it's for that reason " Let get going since we are done "

We all stood up and made our way to our rooms. Lena gave us a good night hug before entering her room.

Suddenly I felt a little bit tasty and the urge to have water was too much so I said " erm Ashley, I need to get water in the kitchen. I don't know why I'm feeling so tasty" I said.

She nodded " Go ahead"

I turned around and made my way to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and felt calm after picking up a jug of cold water. I drank from the jug instead to show how tasty I was. I returned the jug to the fridge when a voice stopped me.

" Isn't it bad to drink water directly from its source and worse return it without washing it "

I knew that voice too well to miss it.

Granny Joanne smiled at me. This smiling of hers is already getting too much and I believe there is always a motive behind it.

" Erm. I was a little tasty that's why. I'm sorry"

She sat on a stool with her mind far away " How come in can perceive her scent? " she wondered out loud not knowing that I can hear her.

"Huh"

She faced me " oh don't mind me. It's nothing."

My heart began to race. Does this mean she finds me suspicious? It seems I need to always have my necklace kept in my room anytime I'm going to be crossing paths with her, I thought to myself.

My hands began to shake unexpectedly. I felt heat rush all over me like someone that was in an oven. I clutch my cheat tightly feeling as if it's going to cut off. It was shocking.

Granny Joanne was by my side in a minute" What is happening?!"

I couldn't respond instead I was going down to the floor. She caught me in time before I could fall.

" I don't know what's happening" I wheezed out in pain. My body was on fire.

" it seems like you're having your heat!"

How is that even possible " I haven't found my mate yet "

" Then how come you are having your heat. This isn't good at all. You need to have your mate closely to reduce the heat if not you'll bear with the pain till it subsided. " She explained...
