Killing My Alpha Mate
Chapter 60

Jaden pulls me in his arms protectively and I judder underneath him. Ride takes the note from Dimitri looking at me then back at Dimitri. "Where did you get this?" He asks.

“Aella... When I found her dead she was holding it" Dimitri says sadly "Sorry bro" Ride states, genuinely folding the paper in his hand.

"This wasn't on the last notes before what are they trying to tell us" "Wait, they are others?" Dimitri asks.

"Welcome to the gang of victims against the war of the crown"

Dimitri looks at him not in the least amused, so mature of Ride to joke about this when he just lost someone he cared about.

Certainly, they must have found out I killed their henchman, making them retaliate.

That is an open threat, a challenge. Rather, I'm happy that my message went through but upset by the fact someone else had to be killed as the after.

Rest in peace Aella, though I know nothing about her she doesn't deserve to die only to accomplish the ego of those monsters.

Not knowing how to take it in, I relax in the arms of Jaden.

Fuck the facade I was holding up I am paralyzed with fear.

Fear they'll finally get a hold of me.

Fear of what they'll do to me.

Fear of losing Jaden.

"Nothing is going to happen to you" Jaden whispers in my ears, coaxing me.

There's a way to guarantee that these people are dangerous and heartless once they attain the purpose they need me for they'll kill and dispose of me like yesterday's trash. Footsteps running this way agitates us all, we peer at the source till a guard comes into view followed by another.

"Alpha Jaden... Lord Perry sent for you" he says panting.

Jaden rolls his eyes, staring at me, I feel his muscles clench.

He runs his hand through his hair then stares back at me.

"What do you say I make you my luna?"

"I'll say you're crazy, the last person who tried is dead " Ride comments in a serious tone but I see a ghost of a smile settle on his lips.

"I'll love to" I say ignoring him.

Jaden smiles pulling me hand in hand as we return to the pack house.

The crowd had settled and Lord Perry stood tall addressing them.

It hits me, Lord Perry would want Carter dead. I always suspected he was part of the crown.

So many pieces of the puzzle but none seem to fit.

Lord Perry's eyes settle on us, his expression cold.

"Well ladies and gentlemen we wait no longer please Jaden, head up here "Lord Perry says loudly.

With a nod, Jaden pulls me struggling through the crowd to the front climbing the stairs to where Lord Perry is standing.

"It's with great sadness tonight that we witness the death of our soon-to-be Alpha but that shouldn't stop us, we have our very own Alpha who has brought this pack thus far since I stepped down, and tonight with open hands we welcome Jaden as or Alpha once more" the crowd cheers then Lord Perry steps back for Jaden to step up, with a nod of approval to talk to them.

"Good evening everyone not quite long ago Carter had come to claim what was his, but we pray, the moon Goddess guide so what happens tonight is of her will, respect to the decreased, Carter would have been an amazing leader and has started his journey on giving this pack solidarity today I am here to continue that mission with my Luna Hailey Stewarts" he looks up to me his eyes gleaming.

The crowd murmurs as the words leave Jaden's mouth.

And honestly, I can't blame them. We have been deprived of this moment for a long while and I'm glad the roller coaster ride is finally over.

He ignores them reaching his hand forward to me, I hesitate a little in fear something might go wrong.

He looks up at me and steps closer pulling my hand in his, drawing me to his side and looking at me directly into my eyes.

"Jaden," Lord Perry says. "It is too early to make Hailey your Luna she had just decided to be Carter's Luna she could easily betray the pack"

Yes, that is true! The crowd supports.

She has betrayed you once she can do it again.

"Hold on everyone" Jaden yells in a strong tone. "Hailey has been misunderstood, the lady in front of you saved my life by sealing a promise with Carter that if I live she belonged to him she sacrificed herself for me, you can all agree to she did that out of love, and tonight she tracked down Carter's killer dashing after him after the shot was fired ab act if bravery this woman in front of us all possesses traits of being a luna I understand why the throne wanted her no matter who ruled on it"

Holding my hand again he looks into my eyes gripping my hand firmly.

"Hailey Stewarts from the time we've met to this moment I have never been so sure of anything besides you being mine, in sickness and in health, when trials and challenges come along to face them with you, to protect you and keep you safe on rainy days or sunny, in spring, summer, autumn or winter to grow this pack to support me when things go bad, to carry my children and stay with me till death will you be my luna"

My heart melts and I have to blink back a few times to stop the tears from rolling.

It's happening and I'm wearing no fancy clothes, no make-up, my hair is a mess, and an oversized shirt with shaggy jeans but to me it's perfect. Holding his hand firmly I take a deep breath.

"Yes... yes Jaden I'll love to be your luna" I say confidently, I love Jaden Perry there's no doubt about wanting to spend the rest of my life with him.
