Pursuing My Rejected Alpha

55 Another Toast For Another Happy Couple

The congratulatory cheers from all the banquet participants drowned out the sound of shattering glass at Ronan Silverback’s table. The Alpha had one hand bleeding severely after getting cut by the glass that he was holding. Alone the sight was enough to make witnesses cringe, but Ronan could not care less about his bleeding hand.

He had both hands grabbing the edge of the table when he rose to his feet, preparing to jump over the table and rushed toward Kinnon Youngshaper to punch the hell out of him.

For sullying the lips of his beloved.

For taking what was his.

Asshole.

Ronan.

Ronan!

Ronan!!!

“Ronan.”

.....

It was Lillian Woodland’s stern voice and the strong grip on his arm that caused Ronan to regain his sanity. The usually playful and flirty Alpha’s daughter shot him a sharp look.

“Calm down,” she said in all seriousness.

“What?” Ronan asked, frowning at Lillian Woodland. What was this woman talking about? Calm down? How was he supposed to calm down?

Lucien just shared a kiss with another man!

Lillian Woodland did not loosen her grip on Ronan’s arm. Her eyes took on a sharp glint as she looked at the man in front of him. He was so obsessed with Lucien that he was about to desecrate the temple with a fight and he wouldn’t even regret it. All for a single man.

Some distance away, Kinnon and Lucien broke apart. The intensity of the kiss was enough to make the hearts of the younger werewolves skip a beat. Lucien lightly shoved at Kinnon’s chest while looking away. Embarrassment colored his cheeks pink and enhanced his handsome features.

Onlookers could not help but swallow hard. It was no wonder that Kinnon Youngshaper was so adamant about making Lucien Clearwater his Luna.

Ronan’s father, Dane Silverback, leaned with his back against a pillar in a corner of the room. He was watching the scenes unfold with a great deal of interest. His gaze shifted from Kinnon and Lucien to Ronan and Lillian.

Certainly, he had not made a wrong choice when he decided that Lillian Woodland was the right woman for his son. She might look superficial at times, but Dane knew that there was more to Lillian than what met the eyes.

Dane Silverback suddenly had a great idea.

“Attention, everyone,” he spoke up.

Dane Silverback had been a renowned Alpha his whole life. Even after retiring, his presence was enough to command the attention of the whole room. All eyes were immediately drawn to him. Silence settled in the room while everyone waited for Dane to speak as if he were the messenger of the Moon Goddess herself.

Dane Silverback raised his glass of wine in the direction of Ronan’s and Lillian’s table.

“What a joyous occasion for the Night Prowler Pack and the Silent Walkers Pack indeed. I too would like to share another joyous occasion in the name of Infinite Eclipse Pack and Ironclad Claws Pack.

My son Ronan has also decided to settle down properly, and his chosen Luna is none other than the lovely Lillian Woodland.”

Both Ronan and Lillian were surprised. They froze on the spot while everyone turned to face them and started clapping animatedly.

“What wonderful news!”

“Alpha Ronan and Miss Lillian Woodland are finally going to tie the knot!”

“Congratulations, Mr. Dane Silverback. Congratulations, Mr. Conrad Woodland!”

Mr. Conrad Woodland, the currently reigning Alpha of the Ironclad Claws Pack was also baffled. Since when did those two become an official couple, let alone give each other their hands in the promise of marriage?

Unless he had somehow grown senile in the past weeks and forgotten about a few things, did Lillian herself not tell him just a few weeks ago that Ronan was still chasing after Lucien’s shadow?

It was not after the surrounding werewolves started to line up to shake his hands that he broke into a nervous grin and thanked all those who came with best wishes for the couple.

Ronan narrowed his eyes at his father, who raised the glass in his direction.

Lillian thought that the whole thing was a very bad idea. It was clear to her that the Night Prowler Pack and the Infinite Eclipse Pack were rivals, but did it mean that they even had to compete in terms of marriages?

Lillian was racking her head for solutions. How to properly do damage control without causing both packs to lose face? And her father looked so happy, too... Goddess.

Was there any easy way out of this outrageous lie?

Unexpectedly, Ronan put his arm around Lillian and smoothly pulled her toward his chest. And then, he lowered his head and sampled the sweetness of Lillian’s lips. The latter was so shocked that she had her eyes open the whole time during the kiss.

Ronan Silverback seemed to be determined to win even in a kissing competition. His practiced tongue pried Lillian’s teeth open skillfully and plundered the inside of the woman’s oral cavity with the prowess of a true playboy.

Those who did not know that Ronan Silverback had never even held hands with Lillian on his own accord would think that these two had done more than just kiss.

The crowd was roaring with cheers. This year’s Moon Banquet had blessed four packs altogether with two very harmonious unions. The werewolf society truly could not ask for more.

A few meters away, Kinnon and Lucien watched Ronan kissing Lillian with uninhibited passion.

Kinnon clapped together with the other werewolves. Lucien had one hand looping around Kinnon’s arm while the other was holding the sleeping Ralph up.

For once, he was glad that both of his hands were occupied.

For once, he was glad that he did not have to clap.

Ronan broke the kiss after a long while. He smiled while caressing the dumbfounded Lillian’s cheeks while the latter snapped after fresh air to fill her lungs.

The ladies in the room had to fan the heat out of their cheeks. All of them would love to take Lucien’s or Lillian’s place for the night.
