Rosalie's POV

It been a week since Evita and I had our awkward meeting and since then I saw less of her. She rarely came to the pack house or anywhere people were frequently seen.

"Mummy." Cage called as we walked to the dinning room for lunch as grand Luna Elizabeth had ordered everyone to be present.

"Hmm?" I hummed a response making sure not to miss a step.

"Is Evita coming?"

"First off don't address her by her birth name, she's your grandmother." I scolded making him frown.

"Hey it's not my fault, daddy said I shouldn't call her or anyone granny."

"Well she's your grandmother and I'm telling you to address her as that ok?"

"But then daddy will get mad."

"He won't, I promise." I pecked his forehead. "And to answer your question I'm not sure, maybe she will."

Reaching the dinning room I put Cage on the seat beside mine. Most of the people were already seated patiently waiting for whatever was going to happen apart from eating of course.

"If they take 5 more minutes I swear I'm leaving." Charlie whined. "I'm hungry."

She had gained a lot now and her belly was visible.

"Me too." Shaun groaned.

"Last I checked only Charlie is pregnant you glutton." I teased him.

"Well working with Dash requires one to have a tone of energy little missy." He retorted.

"True." Angelo said under his breath making us all laugh.

"How did you even stand him when you were together." Ericson asked making my mood sour.

I knew he was joking but I didn't want anyone bringing it up especially now that I was pregnant.

The room went silent and we all just waited for everyone to arrive.

10 minutes later Evita stormed in anger written all over her face then Elizabeth and Titus followed similar expressions gracing their faces.

"Where's Dash?" Titus asked looking around and not finding him.

"You should know better." Ericson rolled his eyes. "Can we start eating already some of us are starving."

"Not until Dash gets here." Evita spoke straightening her posture.

"Last I checked you don't have a right to give any orders in this place." He retorted glaring at her.

Evita was seated beside me and opposite Ericson giving them both a great angle to glare at each other.

"Well my son is the alpha and no one will eat without him." She smirked knowing he wanted to be the alpha and it pissed him off that Dash held the title instead of him.

"So when I become alpha no one will eat without me right?" Cage beamed as he stared at Evita.

"Yes little one, no one will." She stared back with a small smile that quickly vanished when Dash walked in with Lucinda.

"Finally the alpha graces us with his presence." Ericson spat bitterly.

"Stop." Penelope warned in a whisper as she squeezed his hand.

She barely had a conversation with Dash ever since the fight as Ericson wouldn't let her go near him, he watched her like a hulk and she couldn't even escape.

"What, it's not like I said something wrong." He scoffed. "Are you afraid I'll make the almighty one angry."

Unbothered by his taunts Dash gave Cage a quick kiss on the forehead before taking his seat at the head of the table.

As we eat you could sense the tension at the table, it was so intense most us just moved the food on our plates around as we had lost our appetites or were afraid of choking.

"What did you call us all here for." Penelope who had barely touched her food set the fork in her hands down and turned to face her mother who sat a few seats away.

"Can we eat first at least." She took a bite of her steak and chewed harshly even though it was tender and we had sharp teeth.

"I'm not hungry and so is everyone at this table." She pointed out, guess I wasn't the only one who noticed. "Except for Charlie that is."

Charlie's head was craned downward as she stuffed food into her mouth unaffected by the tension.

Elizabeth was about to answer when Dash interrupted.

"I've decided to mate Lucinda."

His words felt like a sword was pierced right though my soul.

"Your must be a fucking joker if you think I'm gonna sit here and let that happen." Evita rose glaring daggers at him.

"It's not your choice Evita." He's tone was cold.

"Here I was thinking you would turn out better than your bastard of a father." She sighed defeated.

For the first time since she had come here I saw her eyes get glossy with the tears that she blinked away.

"Maybe if you had raised me I wouldn't have ended up just like him don't you think." Dash rose from his seat too.

"You are ruining your life." She breathed. "This is a mistake why can't you see it!"

"What I decide to do with my life shouldn't concern you." He stared straight into her eyes as he talked. "My life is already ruined."

Lucinda flashed a smirk at me before getting up and making an attempt to calm him.

Right now Dash's thick veins where showing through his skin signaling just how infuriated he was.

"Baby calm down." She cooed.

Hearing her talk to him like that made me realize a few things. One, if he mated with Lucinda that meant he rejected me and there was only a 1.99 percent chance for me to survive it. Two, he never cared what happened to me despite us completely the mating process.

Something deep inside me snapped and with full force I got up from my seat walking over to were he stood and pushed him.

"You selfish fucking bastard!" I yelled not holding back my rage. "I can't believe you!"

"Leave my mate alone." Lucinda pushed me back and I fell to the floor.

"Are you ok." Evita run to my side but I didn't bother answering or taking the hand she offered. Getting up and taking slow yet dangerous steps all I could see was red.

"Your mate." I laughed sarcastically. "Then why did he mark me huh." Pulling down the collar of my shirt I left the mark Dash had made on my skin on full display for everyone to see.

Gasp could be heard but I paid no mind.

"Rosalie stop it." Dash warned.

"No, let her see it!" I tried moving closer to a shocked and teary Lucinda but he held me back. "He marked me cause I'm his real fucking mate you whore!"

"I said stop this bullshit now!" Dash's grip on me grew tighter with each word he uttered.

"No you stop, why won't you tell your whore how you fucked me on the night of the blood moon and got me pregnant!"

"What." As though I was fire that would scotch him Dash let go of me me quickly.

"You heard me, I'm carrying your child." I said louder this time and as though the marking news wasn't shocking enough I had to drop another bomb on everyone.
