Rejected Mate novel Chapter 27

It’s been about a week since we announced to the pack that I was taking over as alpha, and it has gone so fast.

I knew that pack life was rough, but my god, is there a lot of paperwork. I have spent the last week stuck in the office doing non-stop paperwork; it’s tiring, but Hazyn has been super helpful.

“We need to get on the road, baby”, Hazyn smiles at me. I nod my head quickly in understanding before signing my name on my last piece of paperwork.

“Ben, you got this?” I question.

“Yep, Ashley and I will keep the pack running while you are away, have fun at the packs”, Ben smiles. I nod my head, quickly moving the paper I just signed into the send-off pile to make it a bit easier for Ben to deal with.

“I’ll miss you” I hug Ashley as I talk before turning to Ben

“Don’t burn down the pack” Ben laughs at my comment before moving in understanding.

“We need to go”, Hazyn butts in, trying to hurry me up; I just nod my head before taking hazyns hand before walking out of the office, through the pack house and to the packed car.

“You won’t like this, but river falls” I stare blankly at Hazyn.

“You didn’t think to tell me this earlier?” I question, making Hazyn take a hand off the wheel and rub the back of his neck.

“I’m sorry, but your alpha now, you can throw it in their faces, and they have to respect you now” Hazyn smiles before rubbing my leg quickly so he can grab the wheel again with both hands

This is going to be a nightmare
