Chapter 6
“No! I will not allow the transfer!” Jasper stood up and exclaimed as soon as the shock separated from all of them.
Lauren still stared, gaping at
“She isn’t your chosen Luna. I don’t see why not, Alpha Jasper.” Declan countered, still looking at her while Lauren stared in disbelief
“He was the one who wanted me gone! Why would he suddenly want to transfer me back to his pack?” Lauren thought,
He wanted his freedom from me! He wanted to live and marry Vivienne, whom he considered the love of his life, despite everything I did! What’s wrong with him? Does he want to punish me?”
Lauren clenched her fists when anger settled on her despite her wolf’s delighted murmurs in her head. They were in disagreement as she fumed at the thought that her animalistic urges wanted her to follow her mate.
Although it is customary for mates to immediately consummate their soul marriage” and Mark each other; and for the female to follow her male, their case is just different.
To hell I would! I was done being trampled over Lauren exclaimed in her mind.
She is not, but Lauren will remain in my pack!” Jasper raged, and Lauren could see how mad he had gotten.
Declan’s eyes turned to her Alpha who was being protective of her.

“Our relationship is none of your concern-
“Your indirect response tells me that she is not your girlfriend, nor do you have any sort of relationship besides being packmates to each other. Is that night?”
Declan leaned his hands on the table as he stared back at the fuming Alpha Jasper who remained silent. Lauren could sense how he was barely clinging by the tips of his patience.
I have given you a generous offer. I don’t even see why I should be giving you such generosity when I have all the rights to get them”
“You do not own them, Alpha Declan. You do not own any of us just because you’ve become more powerful than us.” Jasper gritted out.
Yes, I don’t. But Lauren and her children are.”
“Why?”
“Because she is my mate and she has kept our children away from me.”
Gasja resounded all over the room at the declaration. Even Lauren did not expect he would drop that information like a bomb to them.
She just stared wide–eyed at the man the once called her husband.
She could barely recognize him now. And she doesn’t understand why he would claim her and her children like that, when all he wanted was for her to get out of his life before.
She admitted she felt like she was wrong for keeping her children hidden away from him. But everytime she was reminded how harshly he treated lier, how unloved she felt under his roof, she realized she’d rather have her children not know their father rather than feeling the same rejection she had felt when she was with him.
And there was Vivienne. What if they married and got childrent What would happen to Damon and Dahlia? He, for sure, would favor the children he had with the woman fac truly loved.

Despite his fury, Declan sat still on his seat and didnot speak.
The others took that their cue to also wait and listen to her.
“First, you will give sis the same protection you offered to the other packs you conquered. Meaning, the same supplies and forces we’d need for our safety as a pack when enemies arrive. Second, Alplus Jasper will continue being our Alpha, and the system of Rocky Mountains Pack will not be touched. Therefore, you will not challenge Alpha Jasper’s authority over us no matter how many people see you as a stronger wolf—”
“You are basically telling me that you will get all of my help without giving anything in return.”
“The Rocky Mountains Pack,” Latiren continued despite Declan’s incessant comment. She gave him a hard look, to which he also reciprocated. But he kept his mouth sluit.
“Will not be touched and will continue owning the land we currently have, in exchange of you being allowed to visit Damon and Dahlia WHEN I allow you to Not just whenever you want it. That is our terms for this negotiation.”
