The guards had no option but to spill the beans and prepare for the worst from May, but as they were about to say a word, another guard interrupted."Your Highness, the Elders said it's urgent, and you should be fast."The guard announced."This is not over, and you better have some clear explanations before I come back." Jake glared at them and left and they held their chest, releasing the breath that they had been holding since.*Alpha Jake matched into the pack Elders hall and Elder Cyril stood up welcoming him.Jake carried a firm face that showed seriousness, while he folded his hands behind him."You are crossing your limits. Elders."Jake snapped and they glanced at each other."But what have been done to you, your Highness?" Elder Cyril asked."Here goes you, doing all the talking. I'm sure you know that today is my wife's birthday, it was so wrong for you to wake me up that early in the morning." Jake lamented, hoping they would find sense in what he was saying but Cyril jus
"Really? What's the idea? Please tell me." May asked anxiously, shaking Lara."Ouch, easy." Lara laughed."You don't understand! I need to throw her out ASAP, please don't waste time. You don't know what I had on the ground to lose if this plan fails." May exclaimed."This time it won't fail." Lara assured her and grinned."What's the plan?" May said and pulled her into her closet so they could have more privacy."We should drug them." Lara replied and May raised her brows."What's the difference between that and the aphrodisiac." May questioned."I don't know, but what I know is that this time, it will surely work." Lara retorted, her confidence as strong as ever.May sighed."Anything to throw that witch out." May stated."In fact, I have to do it right now. I will make sure Amby drinks the juice, because of course, she's the stupidest person ever, and then you make sure Williams also gets drunk no matter what, please." May pleaded."You can count on me." Lara exclaimed.*Amby sta
May tabbed her fingers nervously as she watched Amby drink the wine."Thank you May, it tasted great." Amby beamed"I told you," May replied, waiting for the drug to take effect, and it did, immediately.Amby started feeling somehow, she could hardly keep her eyes open."Are you okay, Amby?" May asked.Amby held her head."I...I don't know, my head just..." Amby couldn't complete her statement, she dozed off.May waved her fingers at her before bursting out in a horrible laugh.She laid Amby on the chair and rushed to grab her phone."Lara! Amby is sleeping, bring William here, quick." May said over the phone and hung off.*Lara hid her phone and added the powdered drug to a wine, then entered Williams's room."Hey, my love." Lara waved, seductively walking up to him.Williams glanced at her and back to a paper he was working on, he wore reading glasses too."Lara, come on, in," Williams replied and Lara entered."I brought you some wine," Lara said."God knows I need this. Thank you
Amby couldn't understand everything that was going on, especially how Williams and she ended up on the same bed, that too naked.How did that even happen? Whatever happened between them?Williams dashed from the bed."You two should be ashamed of yourselves. You had brought disgrace to this pack." Elder Cyril spat."No, this had to be a misunderstanding. I don't know anything, we didn't do anything." Williams said and rushed to where Alpha Jake was standing.Jake was standing, not blinking his eyes at all."Alpha Jake, you trust me right? I swear I don't know how we...""What are you even saying, Williams? Do you even have the guts to say something? I had loved you with all my heart. Now I understand why you always talked about Luna praised her and admired everything about her. I should have known that you had been cheating on me with her!"Lara cried loudly."What are you even saying? I don't even know what happened after the wine you gave to me!" Williams yelled."Stop talking Willi
Alpha Jake looked at them with a stern face."What's going on here?" He inquired."Are you asking us? Don't you know what she has done?" May replied."What has she done?" Alpha Jake asked."Seriously? What has she not done? You saw it with your own eyes, she was having an affair with the beta and...""And who do think you are to be in this place? You are no one in this pack aside from a breeder and don't forget that." Jake spat, cutting off May.May was enraged by what he said and addressed her as a nobody despite finding Amby with Williams."You can't talk to May like this because of this thing. Your wife had committed an offense, a huge one which is a taboo and must face a trial according to the provision of the tradition." Elder Cyril exclaimed.Jake's looked at him."My wife cheating on me is no one problem, she is my wife and that is my house problem, not yours, and you can't decide her punishment or tell me what to do," Jake replied.Amby felt a bit of relief, seeing how Jake wa
Jake watched heartbroken as Amby was taken away.He was caught between choosing love or duty.He ignored the Elders' talk and went to Amby's room.He stared at their pictures.He felt alone, with her laughter encoring through every corner of the room."Stop!" He screamed and covered his both ears with his hands.The image of smiling Amby appeared right in front of him."My love, do you know why you are hurting? Is because I didn't do it." Amby's image exclaimed.Jake slowly uncovered his ears and was stunned as he blankly stared at her."Amby..." He tried touching her but she disappeared.Then appeared behind him."Why would you do that to me? You promised to be my protector! Jake! They took me away! They insulted me! Why didn't you stop them? Why!" Amby's voice yelled."Stop, please!" Jake burst into tears and fell to his knees crying."Please stop Amby!" He cried.He felt like a tab on his shoulder and this time, Amby's image had tears in her eyes."You are a just Alpha, not for the
*The next Morning*The sound of the cell opening jotted Amby from her sleep.She slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes welcomed the sight of the bright sun.Her head hurts due to the pain she went through yesterday."Jake..." She muttered as she saw a figure standing in front of her."Jake, I know you will come for me. Jake, I had a...a terrible dream." She muttered."Stop talking nonsense and get up!" A voice yelled and she fully opened her eyes and her heart sank seeing the cell officer standing in front of her.So it wasn't a nightmare after her, after what had happened and that's it."Get up!" He ordered, and she did, holding her head."The pack heads are holding your trail, let's go." He said and chained Amby like a criminal and the thought of that made a tear fall from her eyes.She was taken to the courtroom for the trial, looking sick, and pale.Her eyes met with Jake and she stared at him for a minute, he couldn't take his eyes off her until the chief judge said something.Jak
"With all the evidence gathered and after hearing from all sides, the court however declared Amby, the wife of Alpha Jake, guilty of having an affair with the beta of this pack, Williams." The judge announced."No! You are crazy! I didn't do it! Why can't you just believe me? What would I gain by cheating on Jake after knowing I'm barren? Jake, I know you believe me, I know you trust me, please tell me." Amby yelled."Oh stop being so useless. Jake, it's all confirmed, we can't let a barren and shameless cheater, who despite being caught right in the act refuses to accept her deed but rather try to blame it on May. This is the wrong model for the pack and we will not accept this! You have to divorce Amby, right now!" Elder Cyril exclaimed."Yes! Divorce her! Divorce her!" The rest of the elders, minster, and members of the pack chanted repeatedly.May smirked while Amby stared at Jake with tears in her eyes.No, that's not how she planned her marriage to be, she doesn't want to lose A
