Leondre's POV

I woke up at 10 am, showered, and got ready for the day and I went to Amos's office. I didn't wait to hear a come-in before I enter. I find him sitting in his chair, the former Alpha and Luna are on the couch along with two other men. They all get to their feet at my arrival and bow.

We exchange pleasantries and I take a chair in front of the new Alpha.

"I found my mate in your pack," I inform him, from the looks on their faces, it seems they already knew.

Amos knit his eyebrows in interest while the other people in the room cheer forcibly as if they were wary.

"I found her in the dungeon, being molested by your guards," I say, repulsed. Amos's face shows anger and fury as I continue to tell them. A growl rips from his chest and he hits his desk, breaking it in half.

"I'll kill them," he declares.

"Already did," I grin sarcastically.

"What happened? Why was she locked up?" I asked, looking into his eyes and he fidgeted uncomfortably. I believe it has something to do with him. He swallows thickly.

"Which one?"

"Don't play dumb with me, you're already starting to irritate me."

He looks offended but doesn't say a word. He inhales and puts his arms on the broken table, looking at me.

"Anaiah," he starts, and I repeat her name silently. Anaiah. It's a beautiful name for a lovely girl. A smile makes its way to my lips.

'It suits her,' adds Saga.

"There is a mistake. Anaiah is not yours, she's my mate,"

I growl and get to my feet. In a flash, I'm in front of him, holding him by his neck. I lift him off the ground and squeeze his neck. His face starts to turn purple but I don't release him. How dare you claim my mate, the former Alpha, and Luna, are pleading, but I turn a deaf ear.

"Anaiah is my mate and I'll kill anyone who tries to touch her," My words are slow and calm, I throw the little Alpha to the ground and he gulps for air greedily. His parents are going to help him up but he growls and pushes away, stupid prick.

"With all due respect, my King, she was mine first."

"If the Moon Goddess gave her another, it can only mean you rejected her, especially considering the condition I found her in. Alpha Amos, do you lock your mate in a dungeon?" I know for sure that if the goddess blessed me with her, the moron must have rejected her.

"I was wrong, I'll take back my rejection!" He challenges.
