CLAIMED BY THE IMPOTENT ALPHA PRINCE

Dera was scared at first, but soon she found herself slowly shifting too. Gray glared at them, wishing Dera would beat Sienna. He was ready to defend her in case the fight took another turn.

"What were you expecting before?" Dera mocked. "You didn't want him to touch his mate, but to come touch you, old girl?" Sienna was five years old, she was more mature in appearance which made Dera refer to her as an old girl.

She scanned her body with prideful eyes then turned to look with disgust at Sienna's. Her eyes were enough to pass on what she had in mind. Dera was mocking Sienna, showing her how young and beautiful she was.

This, she did before she completely shifted to her radiant brown wolf.

Just then the Beta arrived to tell Gray important news only to catch the side of both Sienna and Dera in their wolf form. It was a crime to shift inside the estate. Shifting could be done outside.

"What's happening here?" He growled. He was surprised to see the Alpha watch this without saying anything.

"Hey, stop. You two." He moved towards them to pull them apart but Gray grabbed him from behind, pushing him away.

"Who's asking you to pull them apart? Are you crazy?"

Fred stared at Gray with a puzzled gaze. Shifting was prohibited inside, the rule was even made by Alpha Gary himself.

“You will not get away with this!” His Beta snapped at him and walked away. He stormed out of the room, he couldn't contend with Alpha Gray's recent behavior.

Sienna was about to storm out too when Gray grabbed her violently.

“How dare you treat my fated mate this way? Do you know she's greater than you in rank right now?”

This was the last thing Sienna expected to hear. What she thought was happening right in front of her.

"But you said your mate doesn't stop me from being the Luna of this pack?" She reminded him with a smirk on her face. She was about to cry but seeing that Gray would be happy to see her hurt, she held back her tears. Instead of a tear, she held a smirk.

"How is that even possible when I've found my heart?"

"So you believed?" He chuckled, folding his arms across his chest.

"Oh God!" Sienna exclaimed, raising her hands to her head. She looked at both of them with a cold smile, not saying a word.

His conscience hit him hard, even amid his disgust towards Sienna, he was pushed to talk gently with her.

“I promise to hold you dear by my side, but my wolf beats for Dera. She's my mate and as the Alpha, I need her. I'm sorry, I can't help." He walked away from her to Dera. He draped his hand over Dera's shoulders, turned, and pulled her into a tight hug.

"I'm pretty sure I'll be removed as Luna soon, it's already obvious!" She shut her eyes so tight to prevent her from seeing Gray hugging Dera. She rose from the ground.

“Dera is here to stay. Perish whatever thought you have against her. You'll only be chasing after the wind!" Gray growled before leading Dera inside his bedroom.

"I don't want to see these when I come out," he pointed to the fruits on the floor. With this, he slammed the door hard in her face.

Sienna remained there.

It didn't take long when she began to hear moans and groans coming from inside the room.

"Gosh! They are making out while I'm here, standing like a fool!"

She stormed off, kicking at the fruits to scatter more. She warned all of her maids not to touch it. She wanted to see what Gray would do when he eventually came out.

"I wouldn't turn to their slave, not in this house!"

"So sad! When someone you have becomes someone you used to have." Sienna sighed, as she climbed into her bed. Thoughts of Gray and Dera making love recreated in her head. She tried to wipe it away, but it persisted.

It seemed this was the new tempest she had to battle with, she didn't know for how long.

"So I'm not included in his future?" She sighed.

As she lay on the bed, she heard a knock on the door. This was three hours later.

"Come on, open this door!" It was the Alpha. "Why didn't you clean up that mess on the floor?"

Sienna rose, walking to the door. She leaned on it without opening it. "Ask your mate to do that for you, she dropped it, so she has to clean it."

With this, she returned to her bed. Pulling her headphones over her ear, she folded her arms across her chest wilding away time while listening to music. Gray was at the door knocking, not knowing she wasn't even hearing.

"I have to punish her so hard so all this disrespect would end!" Dera balled her fist in support, she held a sinister grin on her lips.

Towards the evening, it was time for the President of the Alpha Council to visit. Carla, Sienna's cousin, had made a post about the Alpha taking a new mate after he promised not to. She tagged the president in the post which got him to see it eventually.

She had made a promise to her cousin, and she had to fulfill it.

For the dinner which was an honor to welcome him, everyone had to be present. The Alpha was sitting with his mate, Dera. The Beta and Gamma with their mates were also present and three other senior members of the family were in attendance.

Sienna arrived late. There was no seat in place for her, the Alpha didn't order for an extra seat. Even though Patrick was the President of the Alpha council, he was under Gray's control. This was the secret Carla didn't know but Sienna knew.

"What's wrong between both of you?" He asked, deviating from Gray who was meant to be the center of focus.
