Spurned Luna’s Return: On Your Knees, Alpha Chase

Rolandro rubbed the back of his neck and smiled sheepishly before wearing the serious face again.

At this time, Lavana had already stepped out. She stood at the indicated spot where the other participants once stood to showcase their talent and another music that was catchy was being played. When Rolandro saw her earlier fidgeting, it was true. Do you know why?

This damn Thora suddenly felt weak and went into slumber, just like the others had been. The reason was that she’d used up quite a lot of energy in the dancing show-off earlier on the board during the human table game. Now, she heartlessly ditched Lavana like this. How could she not fidget? She can not dance, for heaven’s sake.

“Even though that guy got booed at, he at least was able to dance a little and spin four hoops. Can I even spin one?” she thought in distress. She had no tears to shed. Everyone was staring at her now, wanting to see how she’d perform with the hoops. Maggie was more excited.

Since Lavana was going to teach her dancing when she was free, seeing her about to display her talent made her stomach flip. Maybe Lavana could even handle 20 to 30 hoops? Or even more? She’s a queen of dancing, alright.

The assigned pack member in charge of the hoops threw one yellow hoop at her. She hastily caught it, almost falling in the process. Maggie’s expression changed.

“Could it be she wanted to pretend to be weak and then show off later?” she thought in puzzlement.

Now the hoop was in her hand. She looked at the others and saw Beatrice and Maggie smiling at her. She was sure that they were smiling for different reasons. Her heart was beating hard.

How should she spin this thing? She recalled the hoop is placed around the waist. Hopefully, her waist will not break from this.

She started trying to spin the hoop slowly. Her movements were awkward and the next moment, the hoop fell.

Everyone was stunned! She couldn’t even spin one hoop successfully? Was she weak or what? Their little ones could spin one or two with the exception of genius Pedro.

Why was it like this?

“Hehe… I got distracted.” Lavana picked up the fallen hoop and gave it back to the assigned pack member with a sheepish smile.

“Alright. She’s shown us her wonderful talent. A round of applause for her.” Rolandro said and everyone applauded for a short time. It wasn’t even loud but it was better than nothing. This was meant to encourage the Omega.

“We look forward to a better performance next time. You surely amazed us in odd ways. Thank you very much for your effort.” Rolandro said.

“Alright. So Pedro is the winner of this last game. It’s been a fun night. We get to learn a lot about each other. We got amazed and laughed. Thank you very much you all for being present tonight. I’m humbled that you deemed this activity worthy of your attention. Thank you very much. The triennial competition is at hand. Let’s work harder and push ourselves to our true limits. If any of us could become Alpha, that’ll be a good thing. For now, it’s late. Let’s all retire to bed and enjoy the best night’s rest ever. Tomorrow is a big day.”

At this, the pack members rose and thanked Rolandro and Mel for being good hosts for tonight’s events. Then they retreated to their various homes while chatting happily. There were many who commended Lavana, not wanting her to feel down at her inability to spin one hoop.

Maggie pulled Lavana to a corner.

“Lava, be honest with me. Did you pretend to be unable to use the hoop?” she asked with a questioning look.

“I’m not an all-rounder,” Lavana replied.

“Even so, at least with the moves you showed earlier during that human table game, you should be able to spin one hoop. How can you not? Or could the fact be that you can’t dance at all? It was just your wolf was in control during that game?”

“Er… You can say that. Well, enough of the questions, Maggie. I’m exhausted.” she said leisurely.

“Yeah. We’re both exhausted. I’m sure you, the temptress is tired too. Why don’t you go sleep and hopefully your brain will reset back to factory setting?” Beatrix who just arrived said.

“You…” Maggie was rendered speechless. Was this kid telling her she had a nut loose from her brain? What guts she has!

“Rix, apologize.” Lavana said in a serious tone. Unwillingly, Beatrix turned to look at Maggie again and sighed.

“I’m sorry. But you should select your words next time. If you make my big sis mad, I vow, I’ll deal with you.”

“Is this an apology?” Maggie asked in shock.

Was this little unshifted baby threatening her, an adult Upsilon wolf? Seriously?

“Rix!” Lavana looked unhappy.

“Big sis, she should learn to overlook things. If I don’t butt in, she’ll ask too much. I’m tired. I need to sleep. Big sis, you can join me when you’re done here.” Beatrix started to walk away.

“Hey, Boss…”

“Get lost, annoying pup.” Beatrix barked, causing Pedro to flinch and just not block her path.

“What happened?” Mel asked while walking over to the ladies.

“I don’t know why Beatrix is angry. Is it because I took the crown for Hula hoop dancing?” Pedro asked in distress.

“Don’t worry. She has that temper. I’ll go calm her down. Um… thank you for the amazing night. I loved it. Wish you all sweet dreams.” Lavana said with a small smile before turning around and walking away quickly.

Maggie sighed.

“Well, Magnolia, care to tell me what happened here?” Regina asked as she arrived.

“She… She showed great moves during that game earlier. Why in the last game, she was so… Now I know she was under the control of her wolf and can’t really dance. That kinda hurt me. She should have said it from the beginning.”

“Does she answer to you just because you brought her here? Magnolia, go reflect on yourself.” Mel chided.

Magnolia sighed and nodded her head.

“Alright, Mel. Goodnight and thank you for the event,” she said before leaving.

Rolandro and Carmelia walked over, holding hands.

“What happened?”

“Magnolia seems to have brought down the newcomers’ mood,” answered Regina with folded hands.

“We’ll settle this tomorrow. It’s late. Goodnight, Mel, Regina.” said Roladro as he took his little boy’s hand.

“Goodnight.” the couple replied before leaving.

“Carmelia honey, I have a feeling that Lavana is not an ordinary Omega. Her aura in the living room wasn’t a joke.” Rolandro telepathed to his wife.

“Do you mean…”

“Yeah. I plan to train her. You know, there are female Alphas too. Though they are on the minority side, their packs are doing well. If we can train her and she proves us right, then she can become the Alpha of this pack. She has got that fighting spirit inside her. Hearing that the triennial competition was approaching, she had excitedly asked if anyone was allowed to compete.”

“Okay. I see you have a point there. You can train her. Just don’t compliment her.”

“Are you still jealous?”

“Nope. A good trainer must be strict,” she said.

“A lax one can still produce excellent results, sweetie.”

“Andy, you remember you still haven’t collected your reward from me for tonight?.”

“Jeez! Mimi, you actually still recall that? I’m kinda tired. Can we shift it to another day, honey? Please!”

“A promise is a promise, Andro. You just have to lie back down and let me do my job.”

“Mimi, please have mercy on me, okay?”

Pedro wondered why his parents were looking at each other for an eternity. His father had even let go of his hand. How engrossed in this telepathy thing were they?

Yes, he knew that all shifted werewolves could telepath, but why did his father’s face turn from a serious one to that of someone afraid and begging for mercy, while his mom seemed to become an evil dragon with her smile? He could detect she must have evil intentions in mind.

“Mom, are you planning to hurt daddy?” he couldn’t help asking.

“Um… no. Why would I do such a bad thing? How could you even think such a thing of me? I’m your mum.” Carmelia asked, looking hurt.

“You looked like you wanna do something bad and dad seemed afraid.” Pedro pointed out.

“Me? Hahaha. That was to fool you. Mom and I are just playing a game and she won that’s why she’s happy.” Rolandro replied.

“Is it a mind game? Is it that fun? I want to grow up and play the game too. I’m pretty sure I’d win over Beatrix.” he said with determination, causing his parents to cough awkwardly.

This kid!

“Mimi, you said you’d send him to fantasyland, right?” Rolandro mind-linked his wife.

“I’m an expert.” she boasted.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“Good. Coz we really need that tonight.”

“I can see that.”

“Mom, Dad, I’m right here. I exist, you know.” Pedro said while waving his hands.

“We know,” they replied in unison while chuckling.
