Contract With Alpha Logan

Chapter 98

Rebecca POV Luce Norton was my close friend. Her mother liked me a lot when they had visited my pack. Two years ago, my father had hosted an ally meet in which Alpha Soren was also present. Luce and Beau had accompanied Alpha Soren and his Luna. We both gelled well, and it was then Luce told me about her brother, who would be the future Alpha of the Viking pack.

Ace Norton was the most beautiful wolf I'd ever seen. It was said that the Viking pack wolves were descendants of the Vikings and hence the name. The wolves in this pack were incredibly muscular and attractive, making it impossible for me to resist drooling. However, I had to school myself and my eyes were only on the Luna's position.

Luce gave me first-hand information about the traditional Luna choosing called "Selection" and enrolled me for the competition personally. However, she had also informed me about Katy Hanks and Ace's interest in her.

I knew who Katy was. She was the sister of the famous Alpha Logan and his Luna, Kylie. If I didn't do things right, I knew Katy could potentially damage my chances of winning the competition because of her family's influence. It didn't help that she was alpha blood and a trained warrior.

I abhorred her for all her qualities and then some more. She was like a thorn in my eye, who I wanted to get rid of asap.

When I heard Luce hadn't invited her for the competition, I knew why. Luce feared that if Katy married Ace, Ace would undoubtedly become the Alpha of the Viking pack. After all, Katy's family would have been a powerful alliance. And that's where Luce's interest clashed.

Alpha Ace had his eyes on Katy and for my plans to flow smoothly, I suggested Luce to cast a spell on Alpha Ace.

What can I say the family was foolish enough to cast a spell on him. In fact, Luce was stupid. She was driven by her ambition to take over the Viking pack along with her chosen mate, Beau Jordon. As if I didn't know.

Until my plans panned out, I had to keep her in my confidence. I constantly filled Luce's ears with my thoughts, influencing the competition. After it got over, I was going to kick her out like the ass she was.

For the tour of the pack, Luce and I made sure that we sat with Alpha Ace. He was driving the jeep, looking his usual handsome self in his dark shades. I tried to converse with him, but he gave monotonous replies and that got me irritated. Anyway, my focus was to keep him away from Katy.

We stopped in a clearing in the heart of the pack's territory where I saw that several pack members had gathered to see the potential Lunas, their excitement palpable. I stepped down from the jeep and walked to stand right next to Ace, who clearly was a towering figure of strength and leadership. I flicked my hair and plastered a smile on my face to show them I was going to be their Luna.

From the corner of my eyes, I saw Katy stepping out of the last car and standing with some lowly omega girls. When our gazes met, I snickered. I deserved to be the Luna of the Viking pack. In a show of dominance, I curled my hand around Alpha Ace's arm and jerked my chin up. The envy on her face was so satisfying.

However, the next moment, Ace removed my hand from his arm and walked to where she was standing. He gazed at her through his shades intensely. The attention of the whole crowd fell on her, and my jealousy flared. I wanted to scratch her face, but Luce stopped me. "Not now, Rebecca," she whispered. "We'll punish her later."

"This is where we gather for ceremonies," Ace said to the other contestants who had gathered around him. "The Moon Goddess temple is close to here. We honor our ancestors and celebrate our victories."

Clenching my fists, I walked to where Ace was and pushed the girls around him to reach him.

Suddenly, a spectator who seemed like an omega asked the contestants, "We know that most packs have hierarchy and that is why several packs don't have very developed societies. What is your take on this?"

Ace smiled and said, "Would any of you like to answer that question?"

I narrowed my eyes at the omega.

How dare he question those who

smack him and maybe beat him up

so that he would know his place, but

I stayed calm and looked at Katy.

She was looking at the omega with

amusement. I knew she was going

to reply to him, so I replied before

her.

"Hierarchies can't be destroyed," I said with confidence. "We are what we are. However, all a Luna can do is to engage with the pack members and help them when needed."

The omega gave me a tight smile, and I knew I had put him in his place while saying that a Luna was far above him.

My skin crawled with raw jealousy when Ace removed his shades and looked warmly at Katy. "Would you like to answer that question?" Why was he asking her only and not others?

I interjected, "I'm sure all other contestants would like to answer the question."

Two girls raised their hands, and I

nodded, giving them permission to speak. They gave ass answers, and I couldn't help but gloat at my answer. I thought we were done, and started to leave when Katy stepped forward, her eyes meeting those of the pack members. In a soft and soothing voice, she said, "We are

more than just hierarchies. The pack

members are like a family to the

Alpha and the Luna. We have to support each other, trust in each other and only then can we thrive.

Our strength lies in being united, and each of you plays a vital role in the pack."

The pack members erupted in a loud cheer as they clapped at her answer. Dark and oily, soul-deep rage

exploded in my chest as my mind

raced on what I could do. Should

challenge her? But if I challenged

her, Ace wouldn't like it and was not

ready to do so openly. I burned

silently and vowed to remove Katy

as soon as possible from the race.

We all dispersed and went back to our cars and jeeps. This time, Alpha Ace didn't come with me. He went to sit with Katy and her friends. Luce couldn't protest, but I was so angry at her I didn't talk to her.

As soon as we started leaving, a scream emanated from the back side. I jerked my head back only to see that a mother was bent over her toddler pup who had fallen to the ground and blood was oozing out of his head. She was bawling. "Help!"

"We have to stop," Luce said. "It seems the pup fell out of his mother's arms in excitement!"

"Why?" I asked with irritation. "Use your mind link to call a doctor. What are we going to do? Let's continue with the tour. Ask your brother to go on. That's just an omega pup!"

From the periphery of my vision, I saw Katy jumping out of her car and rushing to the pup. Ace and a few other girls followed her. I rolled my eyes. She was trying to show that she was much better than the rest. What a bitch! Reluctantly, I also got out of the jeep and went to see the pup.

Katy tore the sleeve of her shirt and pressed it on the pup's head. "Call a doctor now!" she urged Ace. He nodded and made the call. Katy remained next to the pup until the doctor arrived, making sure that we got delayed for the rest of the tour.

Once the pup was sent to the hospital, we resumed the tour, but Katy didn't join us. "I'll be going back to my room," she said, looking at her torn shirt that had blood on it.

I scoffed, "Good riddance!"

Icy-hot rage engulfed me when Ace said, "I'll accompany you."

Hi all, I had continued Katy and Ace's story due to popular demand. Like I said earlier, Kylie and Logan will keep appearing in the story. Hope you're liking it.
