Pursuing My Rejected Alpha

119 Lucien’s Woman Squad

Annalynne led Ronan to the pack house, heading toward the Clearwaters’ living room. Inside, Alice and Kendra were already waiting for them.

Alice gestured toward the couch area.

“Let’s take a seat. Anna, can you pour us some tea?”

“Sure, Mom.”

Ronan eyed the steaming pot of tea on the table suspiciously. He was an Alpha, but the three women gave off intimidating auras. Just what were they planning to do?

Anna served each of them a cup of tea before she took her seat on a single couch.

“Have some tea, Alpha Ronan.”

Ronan stared at the red-brown color of the tea. No one else was drinking. Was it poisoned? His instincts told him not to touch it.

He smiled graciously at Alice, “Thank you, Mrs. Clearwater. I am not thirsty. Maybe later.”

.....

Alice regarded him with a cold look.

“If you are not thirsty, then why did you have to drink my son’s blood yesterday night?”

All three women stared at Ronan with deadpanned expressions on their faces. Ronan cleared his throat. Did Lucien tell them?

All of them?

It was just an accident!

And that was also what he told the three women that were judging him harshly.

“It was an accident. Lucien and I, we...”

When Ronan looked at Alice’s face, the words would not come out. Apparently, no matter how thick his skin was, he still had some restrictions from speaking of his love life.

He should not have to tell Alice what was going on between him and Lucien, right? Right???

Could they not all just take care of their mothers? Lucien! Talk to your mother!

Ronan was unable to finish his sentence, so Alice decided to help him.

“I know that you have been doing unspeakable things, night after night.”

Goddess.

Ronan wished that the earth could open up and swallow him.

“My son is a grown-up. I do not wish to tell him what to do and what not to do.”

Thank you, Goddess.

“But it is in my interest to keep my son away from harm.”

???

Ronan was in a daze.

The three women looked no different than vengeful harpies at this point. Aggressive she-wolves were the worst. They used their claws and fangs effectively to maximize pain for the victims.

“So let me ask you again, was it really an accident, or were you bullying my son?”

“It was an accident,” Ronan repeated. “I would never bully Lucien.”

From now on, he continued in his heart.

If Alice knew everything that happened in South Bedford City, he would perish here and now before the war even started.

Annalynne’s face loosened somehow, but the lines around Alice’s and Kendra’s faces were still as tight as before.

Ronan started to get irritated.

Annalynne was Lucien’s sister and Alice was Lucien’s mother. So what was Kendra there for?

Was she considered part of the family or what???

As if reading his mind, Alice continued, “Kendra informed us that Lucien had openly confessed his feelings for you. Honestly, I don’t know what the two of you plan to do. All I want is for my son to no longer get hurt, physically or mentally.”

Ronan nodded. “I will take good care of Lucien.”

Alice furrowed her brows at Ronan.

“If ever I get another clue that you hurt my son... Then forgive me, Alpha Ronan. The next time we meet, I will not be as friendly.”

Ronan could not help but raise an eyebrow.

This is friendly?

What does unfriendly look like, then?

Alice sipped from her cup of tea, and so did the two other women.

Ronan swallowed hard as he scrutinized his own cup, partly hoping that the cup would suddenly strike an alarm and shout that it contained poison.

“Are you not thirsty yet?” Alice demanded.

Ronan forced himself to smile at Lucien’s mother.

He took the cup of tea in front of him and downed it in one gulp.

Then he placed the cup none-too-gently against the tea table surface.

“If Mrs. Clearwater has nothing else to talk about, I shall excuse myself.”

Ronan rose to his feet, and so did the three women.

When Ronan walked toward the door, Alice stepped before him.

The Alpha was a lot taller than Alice Clearwater, but Alice’s back was ramrod straight as she glanced up at Ronan. There was neither fear nor a sense of inferiority in her eyes.

When she stepped closer to Ronan, it was Ronan who felt a slight chill in his bones.

“I almost forgot,” Alice Clearwater slowly said before she landed a hard slap across Ronan’s face.

The Alpha unwittingly glared at Alice. Before he even opened his mouth to ask what that slap was for, Alice told him.

“Your mother, esteemed Lady Fangblade had given me permission to give you a slap whenever you hurt Lucien.”

“...”

Ronan was stumped.

Mom! He screamed in his mind.

How could you allow strangers to hit your son? I am an Alpha, damn it!

Ronan left the room without another word, slamming the door behind him.

Back at the training ground, Ronan grabbed Lucien from behind and bit into the latter’s cheek out of resentment.

“Ronan, have you gone mad?” Lucien pushed Ronan away and rubbed at his cheek.

He then narrowed his eyes at the red handprint on Ronan’s face.

“Did someone slap you?”

“Yeah.”

Lucien was dumbfounded. Who in this place even dared to look straight into Ronan’s eyes without blinking, let alone slap him?

“Who did it?”

Lucien pinched Ronan’s chin between his fingers and examined his cheek.

“Who else but your woman squad?” Ronan muttered under his breath.

“Huh? What did you say just now?”

Ronan cleared his throat.

“Nothing.”

Lucien stared at Ronan for a while but then he decided if Ronan was not going to tell him then he was not going to push for it.

When Lucien had his eyes on the contending teams, Ronan sneaked a glance at his lover.

What was with Lucien and all these women anyway? Even Ronan’s mother ended up taking Lucien’s side!
