Chapter 600 Joanna Stepped Forward To Help

"You said so and not me," the man defended himself.

"That is what you were driving at but you dare not admit it. I wonder who is the bigger coward here," Joanna murmured despite knowing too well that everyone there heard her.

But the elderly man was wise enough to avoid her remarks and focused on why he was there in the first place.

"If you love your brother and want to protect his position then you will fight us. Not only will you be able to protect his position by winning but you will become the next Alpha…"

"By asking her to fight with all of you, isn\'t that the same as indirectly asking her to hand over the Alpha\'s seal to you?" Carl growled, glaring at the man who brought up the absurd suggestion.

"It\'s easy to say I want to protect something and whether or not you are really capable of protecting it. She needs to do this if she wants to protect what is precious to her. Don\'t you agree with me, everyone?" The elderly man asked the crowd and the response wasn\'t short of what he expected.

"Miss Jocelyn, you have two choices. You either hand the seal over to us or fight with us. And if you are lucky enough to win then none in the kingdom will bring up this topic again. In fact, we will respect you as the next Alpha even though your brother never returns," The man said, knowing well that no choice was a better option.

He and his followers will still win no matter what decision Jocelyn makes.

"You know that she is not a match for all of you, that is why you are pretending to give her leeway when this is clearly a trap," Carl grunted, his accusing fingers pointed at the elderly man.

"You can do whatever you want Elder Bruno but read my lips, I am never going to bring out the seal nor will I contest with any of you for the position of the Alpha," Jocelyn asserted angrily.

If it was just one person she had to fight with she wouldn\'t have hesitated to accept their challenge as far as she could protect her brother\'s title and honor.

No matter how powerful she was, she was not a match for the twenty rough-looking men especially since they were gonna make her fight without any rest.

Also, there was no guarantee that the number wouldn\'t increase if others learned about the contest.

She would be at a disadvantage either way so it was better she avoided anything that would make them hold the ridiculous contest that would enable them to easily steal her brother\'s position.

"Then you leave us with no other option but to take it by force," the men chorused and immediately advanced towards them.

"The contest, we will hold it," A lady\'s stern voice echoed in the air stunning Jocelyn who knew she wasn\'t the one who made the statement.

As she expected, they halted and paid attention to her.

"Anna, what do you think you are doing?" Jocelyn demanded angrily but Joanna only beamed at her and stepped forward from Jocelyn\'s shadows.

"In this contest, you won\'t be fighting against her but me," Joanna declared to Jocelyn\'s further annoyance.

"From your earlier statement, as long as one has the capability he or she can become the Alpha. Although you didn\'t mention, I guess another requirement to being an Alpha is that the person must be a werewolf right?" Joanna asked rhetorically.

Judging from the looks on their faces Joanna couldn\'t tell whether or not the men were happy she stepped forward.

"Fortunately, I am a werewolf and happened to meet the requirements…"

"This is no small matter. It concerns the position and honour of my brother who has been missing for months. I had everything planned out. How could you just step forward and ruin things for me," Jocelyn said emotionally.

"Jocelyn, I know what I am doing…"

"From what you did it\'s pretty obvious you don\'t," Jocelyn snapped and angrily brushed Joanna\'s hand off her shoulder.

"My brother went through a lot to become the Alpha. He worked his ass off to maintain his position and protect everyone in the pack. All I wanted was to protect that which he cherished the most but everything is about to be ruined because of you," Jocelyn said angrily.

"I wouldn\'t have intervened if your plan was foolproof. As you can see, these people won\'t leave you alone as long as you don\'t put them in their rightful place. Even if not today, sooner or later they will get what they want…"

"And you think you are the right person to do that?" Jocelyn retorted.

"Don\'t forget you can\'t shift. Let\'s not mention you failing, but you might get killed if you go against them. They are brutal, Anna!" Jocelyn whispered.

"I know you are worried about me but believe me, I have got this. I am not sick of living yet, this should tell you that I have other designs for them…"

"But…"

"Your brother is a good person. None of them here are worthy to be his competitors. Just as you want, I will help you to protect your brother\'s place and at the same time put them in their rightful place. Trust me, hmm," Joanna muttered. She raised her hand and squeezed Jocelyn\'s shoulders. She turned and faced the crowd afterwards.

"If you all agree, then we can hold the contest at the Pack\'s square in an hour," Joanna threw them an offer she knew the greedy men wouldn\'t be able to resist.

[Since you all dared to bully a little girl whom you should be protecting and consoling, then you can\'t blame me for doing the same thing to you. I won\'t show mercy this time around!]

Joanna clenched her fist as she waited for the men to come to a decision.
