Betrayed from Birth – Alpha’s Unvalued Daughter
Betrayed from Birth – Alpha’s Unvalued Daughter Chapter 85

Reagan's POV

My bath was nice. Getting to be alone, and clean myself off helped. But the dirty feeling inside of me remained. Cheryl picked a perfect punishment for me, but she is now on my list too. There are a few people on it, five actually. Raven, of course, is at the very top of it. Cheryl for this horrendous plan of hers. Blake for selling me off like I was cattle, separating me from the only family I have, and banishing me from his pack. Justin for betraying me at every turn, and insisting on loving Raven when he truly should have loved me. I had his very best interest at heart, and he could not give her up, no matter what I did. Last, but certainly not least, Brandon, because he failed to do what I needed him to. He should have killed Raven and then taken me as his chosen mate, as I would have been the obvious choice. I was just as attractive as Raven, more so, I believe as I have always gotten whoever I wanted. Some just needed a bit more encouragement than others did to fall in line.

I am not looking forward to dinner or the town hall tonight. An announcement of my being here, just to provide them with strong pups, was shameful enough. But what was worse is that those she-wolves will be telling everyone what happened. If the experience itself wasn't bad enough, the whole pack knowing about it would be even worse. I was looked at to be the lowest person in the pack, despite my former rank, and my strength. I will just be looked on as a pitiful creature. I think this punishment is way harsher than I deserved. Blake got it straightened out with Cheryl. Yes, I overstepped, badly. But I think that this is too much for me to have been given. I am absolutely glad that Clive will be staying with me, that is the only thing that gives me hope that I will not get hurt on his watch. Out of all of them, he is the nicest to me, and that should make him the best protector for me. I know that tonight will be a busy one, and I hope that Michael and his girlfriend stay far away from me tonight. Hell, I hope all three of them actually, can stay away from me from now on.

I took a shower too, and I felt a little better. I wanted to look nice tonight, as I know that all eyes will be on me, for the whole night. I dried off, went into my closet, and picked out some black dress pants, and a nice baby blue button-down silk shirt. It would bring out the color of my eyes, and help me build myself up in preparation for the full-on s**t show for tonight. I would be completely covered, and even look nice in this outfit. I wanted to sway public opinion as much as I could, I was to be a Luna, but things just fell short for me. I also wore the necklace my parents gave me when I phased for the first time at 16. I was so proud of it, it is a nice diamond pendant, and I had the matching earrings for it too.

I smiled thinking about that day, as it was one of the greatest days of my life. It was better for me because at the time, Raven hadn't phased yet, and that made my birthday the best one I had ever had. We were twins, we should have phased together. It made me start the rumor of Raven being wolfless, and it spread like wildfire. She should have phased for the first time when I did, and I was hoping that since we had separate dad's that hers was a dud, thus causing her to never get her wolf. Seeing her phase that night, and so quickly, was scary. She was much bigger than I was, almost the size of a full-grown Alpha wolf. Her wolf was strong, and I knew that if she had been able to, she would have killed me that night.

I heard a knock at the door, and after I called out, "Come in" I see Clive entering the room to pick me up. He had gone out to his house to shower, shave, and get dressed. He didn't want to use my bathroom to grab a quick shower, he could tell that I hadn't wanted company and was trying to give me some space. I also heard that he was taking Michael off the access panel, so he could not enter my room with his fingerprint anymore, and I have to say I was 100% behind that. He could use an override card, which lets them enter any locked door in the pack, but he didn't think that Michael would try it with his girlfriend on the warpath. He had dressed up too, in dress pants, and a button-down, and he looked very attractive tonight. Our babies would indeed be very handsome children. We headed to the office, and we could hear the argument before we got near the door. Tabitha was in there, and their words were muffled by the soundproofing, so she must have been screaming her head off. Clive put me behind him, as neither of us knew when that door was going to fly open. Aaron was only there in the office to induct me into the pack, clearly, she was watching him, and decided to get him to take her back. I shudder at the thought of her, being as pissed off as she was. She is going to attack me the first opportunity she gets. She blames me for all of this.

I knew Clive must have mindlinked Aaron because the door opened less than two minutes later, but Tabitha was refusing to leave the office. She continued to scream about being the Luna, and his woman for the last few years, and when she saw me, her rage just increased. She let out a huge growl and ran at me. Clive didn't move until she was right on him, and then the next thing I knew, she was on the ground and even madder.

"Stay out of this Clive. You have no business stopping me. Aaron was mine until she came, she deserves this" Tabitha shrieked out in fury.

"How is it her fault, Tabitha? Seriously, she had only one choice, if she wanted to live. She took it only because she wanted to live. Not because she was after the Luna title" Clive said to Tabitha, and he was completely calm.

"She should have picked death because Goddess help me, I will kill her. She will never be allowed to bear Aaron's pups. I will kill her before she can" Tabitha told him, and she wasn't screaming now, she is absolutely calm when she said it.

"Tabitha, we are done. Nothing will possess me to take you back. I told you I am still looking for my mate, but after all you and Jennifer have said today, I will no longer be willing to accept you as my girlfriend. You two have poison running through your veins. You two are attacking her on a physical, and emotional level. I demand that you come to the town hall tonight. If I don't see you there, I will either kill you or banish you tonight. So think carefully before you do anything stupid. Because what you just said was stupid. How could you know who the pup belonged to? We would only know when they got here, and we either scented the pup or got them tested. Now stop, go eat dinner, and do not eat at my table, or you will be sorry. We will be down soon" Aaron told her, and she nodded at him. She cast me another glare before walking away to go downstairs for dinner.

Aaron accepted me into the pack, and I immediately had to shut down the voices in my head in the link. Everyone was loud and wondering why we were having the town hall. There were a lot of pack links open to me, and a number of she-wolves were openly discussing me. I could tell that Tabitha was the ringleader in it, and from the way that Aaron's and Clive's mouth's looked, they are very angry about it. She did not think this through, at all. Aaron told her to stop, and she went downstairs, and started dragging others into it. They just didn't know that I was a member of the pack yet. I had not spoken in it, and they were all so busy bashing me, they didn't realize that I had been added to the link. Tabitha was at Aaron's table, despite what he had said. I guess she thought she had time as Clive and I were there to go into the office. I am assuming that she thought that I was going to have a quickie with them both before dinner. I know it was what she thought, as th at is what she was saying to the she-wolfs in the link. She leaped up from her seat and ran with her plate and drink to another table. I followed Aaron and grabbed some food too. It smelled good, but they don't have lighter choices here either. I guess they train so much, they don't need them, but I do. I like to have salads and fruit. I really didn't train before, and it was how I managed to stay slim. I got a little baked chicken and some asparagus, and this was going to have to do for tonight. I went to the ranked table, Darren and Michael both smiled at me and greeted me, but their girlfriends both glared at me.

"Who the hell does this b***h think she is? She has the nerve to sit here at the ranked table. She is just a breeder. She has no right at all to sit here, and poor Tabitha is sent away, and she has done nothing wrong. This is ridiculous. I am going to say something" one of the women said in the open link. I see Michael smile when she said it. I feel like it is his girlfriend Jennifer speaking. I see Darren frown, and the women with him frown too. She was the calmest of all of them, and I guess since she is with the Beta, she knew I was coming before they did, and why. She may know the whole story, as she hasn't said anything ugly. Just Tabitha, and this Jennifer girl, being the problem.

"She is with us, and she will continue to stay with us. You however may be a different story. Be at the town hall meeting tonight. No excuses, Jennifer. Oh, and you can just leave it. Reagan already heard what you were going to say" Aaron said, and I raised my hand to wave at her, and when she saw the cut on my palm to show he had made me a member of the pack, she growled out in anger.

The rest of the group was visibly surprised at Aaron doing that and not letting them know. It showed us all that Michael was allowing his girl to talk trash with Tabitha about me. Never once trying to stop them from doing it. Darren and his girlfriend, who I learned was named Judy, were very pleasant after Michael and Jennifer left the table. Judy was a strong she-wolf, but she had been hurt by a rogue when she was a child. The rogue attack almost killed her and ended up messing up several of her organs, including having one of her kidneys destroyed by his bite. She could not bear pups, but it seemed like they really loved each other. I had a feeling that when/if I have a pup for Darren, he and Judy will be the ones to raise it. I am fine with that, but I won't provide Michael and Jennifer with one to raise. That won't be happening, as I can tell neither of them will raise the pup well. It would be better off being raised by Judy and Darren.

I just realized that I do not know what is going to happen to the pups after they arrive. Will they be given to deserving people to be raised? Or are they expecting me to do it? I mean, with my background, I cannot see them doing that. It would be a dumb move on their part. I am quite sure that this will be a forced situation too. I guess raising mine and Clive's, or mine and Aaron's pups is OK. But this will have to be discussed. They will need a nanny or assigned caregiver. I am quite aware that I am not qualified to be a great mother. I kind of lost my appetite after hearing what those jealous she-wolves were saying, but I know I need to eat. As bad as today was. I am sure tomorrow will be worse. I have to start training with Clive, and I know how worried about me he is, he will want me up to speed and quickly.

I follow them out to their meeting hall which was abuzz with gossip. They were not trying to hide anything either. I wonder why the stage only has 4 seats up there. I see Judy in the front row, and she waved at me, and Aaron motions me up the stairs of the stage. Clive is behind me with a hand on the small of my back. Clive sits down and has me sit next to him. Darren sits down in the chair on the end, next to Clive. Aaron takes the chair next to mine on the opposite end. We all sit there facing the audience as Aaron waits out the last 5 minutes before he begins. There are a lot of people dragging in, and I see my best friends Tabitha, and Jennifer entering the room, with Michael right behind them. He seems shocked to see that no one set up a chair for him, and I am beginning to figure out that this is going to be really bad, for Michael.

I can see Michael mind linking someone as his eyes are glazed over, and apparently, he did not like what he heard in response. I could hear his growl, and it had a real threat in it. Whatever was decided, he was not happy about or included in the decision around it. Jennifer and Tabitha both leaned over to speak to him, and then they got angry too. They come up front to sit by Judy, and they wait for the meeting to start. I can already tell that both Tabitha and Jennifer are spoiling to get the pack against me. I do not know what had been decided yet, but if Michael gets driven out of the ranked members, that would be great. He is strong, but he is a complete jerk. Didn't give care that I didn't want to be involved in what happened earlier today.

Aaron got up to approach the podium but didn't need the microphone, because this pack was kind of small, and when he spoke the whole room could hear him. "Please give me your attention for about 5 minutes please, Blood Tracker. I know your time is valuable, and I wanted to just make a few announcements. First off, I wanted to congratulate our two newest mated couples. I pray that you are blessed with beautiful pups. I want our pack to grow and flourish. Finding your mate, and having pups is a big part of that. As you all know, my ranked wolves have been attempting to have pups with their girlfriends for a while now. Up until now, that has not worked out for us at all. I had mentioned wanting to find a strong she-wolf who would be able to carry pups for us. My goal this whole time has always been to make our pack stronger. I know that having these pups will help our pack to be able to achieve the greatness that I have always dreamed of. I have made a deal, and we have been blessed to have received a strong, beautiful she-wolf to help us attain those goals" Aaron's voice rang out in the hall.

"She is a breeder, she is not worthy to carry your pup. Why would you break up with me, one of your strongest female warriors, for her? She is nothing but a slut, and do not forget, we all saw that video. We know exactly who she is, and she is not worthy of any kind of rank here in the pack. You need to kick her out of here now, before she does something to you, Aaron. You are not thinking clearly, you are being led by your d**k. Wake up, and get rid of her Aaron. She will never be worthy of this pack's approval, and shouldn't be worthy of yours either, Aaron. I cannot believe that you are willing to bring her in here, and try to make people believe that she is worth anything. I for one will never believe it" Tabitha said, and Jennifer vehemently agree with her.

I agree, she is just a slut, and is not worthy of sitting up there with the ranked wolves. Why is she up there? Why is Michael down here? It doesn't make any sense at all, I think you have a spell on you. There is no other reason for it. I think you owe him an apology, for creating all this drama within the ranked team. She came here just today, and I'll be damned, if she didn't let all four of you f**k her," Jennifer never pauses at the collective gasps ringing out across the room, "and now you guys are acting like she is worthy of respect. Well, I won't be respecting her. I refuse to do it. She disgusts me, and I bet she disgusts a number of people in the pack too." Jennifer gave me a smug smile, before sitting down. She did what she came to do, telling everyone what happened today. I am glad that I put a little foundation on, as I am sure my red face would have shown for the whole pack to see. I just sat there with a bored expression on my face, but inside I was completely humiliated. She just had to tell the whole pack. She was trying to hurt me, and she was successful at her mission. Thankfully, I knew what she had been out to do to me, so I managed to keep my face neutral, so she wouldn't know how much that little truth bomb hurt me.

"Well Jennifer, that is the reason that Michael is down there, and Reagan is up here. Michael is being demoted. We will have the warriors all test, and see who the next Delta will be. Michael forgot that whatever happens in the office, stays in the office. It doesn't get repeated or shared. What I say goes, or do you think that your opinion is higher than mine, Jennifer? What about you Tabitha? Because I am doing this in the best interest of the pack. I do not fully understand why, but I do know that I have never felt an aura as strong as the one I felt in Reagan. So we get to the main point of this meeting. Do not put your hands on Reagan, for any reason, other than to save her from someone who clearly has a death wish. Clive has been assigned to protect her, but things happen. I am warning you all now, that anyone who sees her being mistreated, or hurt, and doesn't immediately tell me, Clive, or Darren about it, will be dealt with, harshly. You should be linking us, as you are trying to stop them. She is going to carry the future leaders of the pack. It doesn't matter whose pup it is, we will care for our own. Please think clearly about it, before you make a decision that could end up getting you killed, or banished from this pack. I paid to have her here, she belongs to me now, so you have all been warned of the consequences of noncompliance. I will be dealing with anyone who cannot follow my instructions. " Aaron told the group, and you could have heard a pin drop.

I heard what Aaron told them, but I know that they will be doing whatever they want to do. They will leave me alone for a little while, and then try to catch me alone a month or two from now. I will never be safe here, as long as those 3 are still here in the pack, especially since Michael lost his position as a ranked wolf. I am suddenly very glad for Clive, and that he had changed the fingerprint access to my room. I wouldn't put anything past Michael now. The glare he is giving me, he is not even trying to hide. It tells me the same thing that I can feel in my bones. I am not looking forward to getting whatever they are planning to do to me.
