"STOP IT! Stop!" Charlotte rushed to separate the two men fighting. And though she was weak and no match for their strength, Jack obeyed Charlotte's command as he beat his younger brother to a stupor, not minding that he was in Teddy's house and also that Teddy was the ruling Alpha of Norfield packs. "Charlotte..." Jack reached to touch her, but Charlotte moved away from him and rushed to meet Teddy. "Are you alright?" Charlotte asked Teddy as she crouched in front of him, but Teddy moved his hands away from Charlotte's touch. Anne quickly rushed to help Teddy stand up on his feet. At the speed that Jack had used to attack Teddy, both Anne and Charlotte were shocked. It was as if Jack had disappeared from where he was standing, and the next minute, he was standing in front of Teddy, attacking him and dealing with him, not giving Teddy the chance to retaliate. Charlotte saw how Teddy pushed her hands away from helping him stand up, but he accepted Anne's help. However, as Teddy stood up, staggering as the alcohol he had drunk also made him weak, he stared at his elder brother angrily and barked, "Get out of my house! You're not welcomed here anymore. You arrive at my home, and the best you could do is kiss my wife and attack me!" Teddy moved his hands away from Anne too, and he told them all, "Get out! I don't want to see any of you here, except Charlotte. Leave!" Jack cleaned his lips, as he hadn't expected the event to turn out like that. He had arrived home not long ago, as the flight journey from the human city to their werewolf land took several hours before he arrived. And he had arrived home, wanting to see his only brother who was now ruling the pack in his absence. Jack hadn't intended to fight with Teddy. He came to greet his brother and the wife. Now, he had kissed his brother's wife and fought with Teddy too. His wolf had pushed him to attack his brother because he saw how hurt Charlotte looked. Before Jack could speak, Anne said, "Babe, are you sending me away too?" Jack was stunned to hear Anne refer to Teddy as "babe." Teddy didn't reply to Anne; instead, he went back into the room door that he had walked out from. Anne looked back at Charlotte angrily, and she didn't want to leave the mansion at that late hour. There were rogue attacks at midnight, and Anne was a Beta, not strong enough to face the rogues. Anne looked at Charlotte angrily and spat, "You see what you have caused. You shameless woman." Anne quickly looked away from Jack, who glared at her for insulting Charlotte, who was still standing there speechless. Charlotte didn't reply to Anne, and Anne went downstairs to ask the maids to show her to the guest room, as she couldn't leave the house at that time. Besides, she was Teddy's mate, and he wouldn't just send her away. After Anne left the top floor, Charlotte was left alone with Jack, and she didn't want to look at her brother-in-law's face. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for any of that to happen," Jack apologized as he tried to move closer to Charlotte and apologize to her. Charlotte knew Jack was her true mate, but he was not around for ten years. He had grown more handsome, charming, and masculine. He was also stronger than Teddy, who was the most feared Alpha in their pack. "It's okay, you don't have to apologize, as it's not your fault. If I hadn't switched off the light, then we wouldn't have kissed each other, so I'm to be blamed too," Charlotte said, as she looked downward, not wanting to meet Jack's gaze. Jack licked his lips again. He wasn't satisfied with the kiss, as Charlotte's lips tasted so soft and sweet in his mouth. He wanted more kisses, but now, he couldn't take her with him, as she was still married to his younger brother. Jack had so much to say to Charlotte, but he had just returned home, and he couldn't say all that to her now. "It's alright. It's already late, and I have to allow you two to sort yourselves out. It had been long since I left this pack, and I don't know what had been going on. What had changed in my absence, but now that I'm back at home, I hope I will be able to assist in the best possible way that I can. And if you're in need of my help, feel free to reach out to me, okay?" Jack said as he moved closer to touch Charlotte again, but she moved away from him. "Okay, I will keep that in mind. It's already very late now. Why don't you go downstairs and stay in the guest room until tomorrow morning, then you can return home," Charlotte said, as she avoided looking up at Jack's face. "Okay, that sounds nice, but you heard my brother dismiss me. He said I'm not welcomed here, and it's only right that I obey his command first, being the Alpha of our pack. I have to head home now. It's fine, I can protect myself, but I will be here tomorrow to apologize to him again. Take care of yourself," Jack turned to leave, and Charlotte finally looked up at him. Charlotte wanted to chase after Jack, to go with him and leave Teddy for good. But Teddy was still the Alpha of Norfield packs, and disobeying Teddy would warrant her to be punished in front of their pack members, and she didn't want that. Also, she had cheated on Teddy too, by kissing his older brother, and not a total stranger. Charlotte was sure Teddy would kill her, but she couldn't just leave the mansion and return home to her father's house. It was late, seeing the time was already 12:45 am, Charlotte sighed and walked back to the master bedroom that Teddy had entered. Charlotte took a deep breath as she stood in front of the door. She knocked and finally unlocked the door as she entered the room to meet Teddy. Teddy was standing there in the room by the window, boiling with rage as he remembered how Jack had attacked him. Jack was fast, his movements were precise, and Jack was very good with combat before he left the Norfield packs. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to kiss your elder brother," Charlotte said as she stood motionless in the bedroom, just beside the door, while Teddy was gazing out the window and saw that Jack had left his mansion. As he saw Jack walk away. "Hmm...." Teddy's anger boiled. Not only did he detest Jack, he didn't like Charlotte too, but seeing the way Jack and Charlotte had kissed so intensely, Teddy knew that Jack didn't lie to him when he said he didn't know it was Charlotte, and he perceived her as his true mate. "Did you perceive him as your true mate? Is Jack Hudson, my elder brother, your true mate?" Teddy finally asked the troubling questions that had been raging in his heart as he turned to look at Charlotte. Charlotte looked hurt, the recent flogging that she had received from Teddy downstairs were partially visible on her arms as she was dark-skinned. Likewise, she wore a pink dress as her body was revealing. Her breasts, which were big and fuller than Anne's, were visible, and her hips, which were curvy too, were on full display in the semi-nude pink nightdress that she wore. Teddy's green eyes rather moved to access Charlotte from her chest, and down to her sexy, curvy waist, and to her face again. As for the first time in their four years of marriage, Teddy was aroused by looking at this beautiful young woman.
