The Alpha's Unwanted Mate
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 58

Celeste tilted her head, confusion printed all over her face. “A t-test? What do you guys mean by a-a test?”

“You were never taught this, but every Luna has to withstand a test before the ceremony. Although I don’t see the sense because even if you didn’t pass, the ceremony would’ve still went on…”

“But you…but he…you said you were going on patrol…”

“I was right over there, there was a time when I thought of breaking the neck of the man that pushed you down, but I had succeeded in controlling myself. Pushing you was absolutely not apart of the test, but everyone makes mistakes, right?”

The pack nodded enthusiastically, bowing their heads in utter respect. “Yes alpha.”

“And you’re sorry, right?”

They nodded again, turning to Celeste. “Sorry Luna Celeste…”

Celeste smiled awkwardly, bowing her head to them. “I-I’m sorry too, I shouldn’t have said what I did, even if it’s just a test…”

“As kindhearted as ever, kitten.” Zillon snapped his fingers and the light went off. When they came on again, the lights were dazzling and colourful, much like they were at parties. “After the test is passed, a little celebration party is held, but even if you had failed, I’d still h—”

“Yes yes Zillon, we get it. You’re hooked, now shut the f*ck up so the music can start.”

“Hey Freddy, you can’t tell me what to d—”

With suddenness, music started to play, cutting Zillon off.

“See? You had to shut up anyway.” The man Zillon had previously called Freddy smiled, stepping towards Zillon. “College was nice, but I missed it here.”

Celeste tilted her head as she looked at him, she knew him, he was Zillon’s best friend. Back in highschool he was like Zillon’s tail, wherever one went, you’d undoubtedly see the other and there was another guy too. What was his name again?

Lamb? Liam?

It must’ve been one of those. He was always with them as well. They were the hottest trio on the school compound, but after graduation, Celeste hadn’t seen them again.

What was this one doing here now though?

And where was the other one?

Celeste was curious, but not more than she was lonely. The pack members had now scattered, some were drinking, some were dancing and some were sitting or just standing. She didn’t really know anyone here, she had no friends. Zillon was really the only one she could talk to and he was now having a conversation with somebody else.

She didn’t want to intrude, they probably had a lot to catch up on, so she instead spun on her heels, unexpectedly bumping into someone. She gasped, gripping onto the staircase to prevent herself from falling. “I-I’m sorry..”

Her eyes floated up, meeting familiar hazel eyes that stared back at her. Red lips twisted into a sly smile and a hand was flung over her shoulder. “I guess you are as Zillon described; you look like an adorable little kitten indeed.”

“B-But y…I thought y-you—”

“Celeste, right? I’m Liam; Zillon’s gamma as well as your royal bodyguard, that f*cker had appointed me to such a duty the moment I got here… I can’t say I’m satisfied, but he’s the alpha.”

He twisted her around, leading her back in the direction she was running from. “And I bet he doesn’t want you wandering off, why don’t we go greet him?”

Celeste acceded to his steps as he hauled her downstairs, because what else could she do?

He was obviously stronger than her, he was a gamma, even if she tried, she wouldn’t be able to get him to loosen his grip….and he wasn’t going to hurt her, he was one of Zillon’s friends after all.

“Hey Zillon, guess who I caught running away?”

Zillon turned in their direction and immediately after the gamma or rather Liam pushed her right into his arms. “Hold onto your belongings.”

Zillon caught her, then glared up at his friend. “She’s not a thing Liam, she’s a human being, you can’t going around throwing her like she’s a ball.”

“She’s not a human being, she’s a kitten, remember?” Fredd; the one beside him chuckled.

“I’m really not happy you guys are back… especially if you’re going to tease me.”

“I’m not teasing you, you’re the one who called her kitten and I really do understand why, can I pet her?”

“Touch her and you won’t have a hand to touch anything else…”

He pulled back the hand he had stretched forward and chuckled again. “I see you’ve gotten possessive of your belongings, you weren’t like this with the last one. Celia? Was that her name?

“Yes, Celia…” Liam butted in. “There was a time when I almost slept with her, the only reason why I didn’t was because I pitied you, Zillon.”

“What a b*tch…”

Celeste peeked up from Zillon’s chest and up at them. She didn’t like the way they spoke about Celia, it might be true, but they didn’t have to speak so harshly.

“I really couldn’t see what Zillon saw in her. She was nothing special, she was overly talkative which only made her annoying and she was jus—”

“I…I don’t think you s-should speak about her like that r-regardless of whatever she’s like.”

“Why? We’re throwing flames on Zillon’s ex, shouldn’t you be happy?”

Celeste shook her head at Liam. “Not when she’s my twin sister…”

Instead of impertinence, a look of surprise took a stance across his face. “Holy f*ck! That b*tch is your sister?!”

A/N// So Zillon’s beta and gamma are here. They both seem to be troublemakers to me though…
