Nate grabbed Lisa’s hand, but she shook her head and snatched her hand away from Nate’s. “I must do this. I won’t run away from my responsibility.” Her stare was calm but sad. “I admit everything. I brought Anna from the Wild Wolves Pack to the Hurricane Dawn Pack. Then I threatened to harm her because I hated her.” Lisa shut her eyes for a few seconds. “But in my defense, I did it outside of my conscience. I just discovered yesterday, it was my father who drugged me so I couldn’t differentiate between Nate,” she said, glancing at Nate, “the father of my pup, and Cameron. My memory was messed up badly until I thought Cameron was my pup’s father. That’s why I hated Anna ….”Nate stood and held Lisa’s hand. “Please, Elders, don’t punish Lisa for this. Yes, what she did is a hideous crime because she is our Luna. She must protect her pack member. However, she wasn’t herself when she was under the drug influence.”“Nate, Lisa, please sit down,” I commanded them. When Nate glanced at me, I
The Elder glanced at his friend, and they might discuss through the mind link. Then one of them said, “Alpha Cameron, the peace treaty is important. Will you sacrifice our pack for one person?” They challenged me with their questions. It was outrageous! How could the Elders who supposedly protected our people defended and supported outsiders? Yes, the Hurricane Dawn Pack was our ally, but their Alpha broke the peace treaty by his action. I growled and glared at the two Elders. I already prepared for the worst. But then, the Great Assembly room’s door opened, and Anna walked into the room. She bowed her head to my father and Elder Tom, but also to other Elders. I immediately glanced at the youngest werewolf in the room. The youngster understood, and he took a chair and placed it next to me. “Thank you,” I said. “Anna, please sit here.”Anna rushed to cross the room and took a seat next to me. When she looked at Lisa, her eyes widened, but then she glanced elsewhere. Lisa coughed an
Some Elders didn’t budge to hear what Elder Tom said. Instead, they glanced at each other. Finally, one of them shook his head. “If we don’t send Anna Warren back to the Hurricane Dawn Pack, Alpha Bill may think we want to end the alliance. It will start a war!”I stood and glanced at each of those Elders in the eye. “Mark my words. The day when I must send our pack member to be ravished by others will be my last day as an Alpha of the Wild Wolves Pack.”“Son ….” My father warned me. But it had been too far. The Elder should support our people instead of outsiders. With all the facts they had listened to, they didn’t change their mind and kept suggesting to send Anna to the Hurricane Dawn Pack. It made no sense.I took a deep breath. “I will ask one more time. Do Elders agree with the decision to send Anna to the Hurricane Dawn Pack?”My father, Elder Tom, and some others instantly said, “Nay!”But those evil Elders said, “Aye!”“As Elders are separated into two poles, let me say my
The two wolves growled and ran toward me. I waited for them to start their first attack. A wolf jumped, aiming to bite my nape while the second wolf targeted my neck. What evil Elders they were! How could they attack the deathly points?I kicked the second wolf in the face and stomped on his body to attack the first wolf. As the first jumped in the air, he couldn’t defend himself against my attack. When both wolves lay on the ground, I kicked both heads and growled. Those weaklings fell on the ground and moved no more.Some guards showed up immediately in the Great Assembly room. They gasped to see us fight each other. An Elder approached the guards and told them what happened. Then I shape-shifted back to human form and put on my clothes. “Guards, put them in the dungeon!” I yelled, then pointed at the rest of the three Elders. “Also, these three. They will be executed after a fortnight.”An Elder yelped and kneeled. “Alpha, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to take sides against you
Lisa bent her head and gazed at the floor afterward. I was sorry for breaking the bond with her because it would be odd to be here after we had no relationship anymore.Nate stepped forward and held Lisa’s hand. “Are you okay?”Lisa nodded. She still bent her head. “I’m okay, but I don’t know where I must go now.”“You can still stay here. You are my mate,” Nate said, caressing Lisa’s back. “Yes, Lisa. You are the former Luna of the Wild Wolves Pack. The pack is your home too. If you want to stay here, our door will remain open for you,” I offered her. Lisa glanced at Anna who still sat far from us and then me. She sighed and shook her head. “I think it will be the best to return to my pack. I feel guilty for Anna for what I’ve done. It’s not good if I stay here.”“Lisa, I know Anna well. She is merciful. Before our meeting today, she told me she understood your situation and didn’t blame you.” I put my hand on Nate’s shoulder. “You are my brother’s mate, the mother of his pup too.
My father leaned his body backward, resting his back on the couch. His fingers tapped the couch and hummed. I didn’t know why he didn’t ask his question right away. So, I asked him again. “Father, your question?”“Mimi, what do you think of serving Anna? Considering your rank is higher than her, it is quite unusual for you to serve her.” My father tapped the couch again. Mimi smiled. Glancing at Anna for a few seconds then back at my father, she cleared her throat. “Elder Horace, Mistress Anna is good to me. She also considered it weird for me to serve her, but I’m happy to serve her.”“Why?” my father asked. “She is nice and kind. Mistress Anna actually did most of the job.” Mimi shrugged and let out a sigh. “I feel bad to know I can only serve little things for her.”My father hummed for a while, then suddenly he asked Anna. “So, Anna, why did you do most of the job Mimi should do?”Anna bowed her head to my father. “Elder Horace, with all due respect, Mimi is my superior. She is
~ Anna/Victoria ~After Elder Horace and Elder Tom left Cameron’s house, Melanie held my hands and grinned. “So, what do you have in mind about the dress?”“The dress?” I stared at Melanie, confused by her question. “Oh, come on! You will be our Luna soon! I think they will announce it soon after the marking ceremony.” Melanie let out a dreamy sigh. “Imagine how beautiful the scene will be: our Alpha and you as mates on the marking ceremonies.” She giggled and raised both hands, expressing her excitement by moving her hands. “Congratulations, mistress!” Mimi hugged me. “It’s a wonderful day!” Then she kneeled before me. I frowned and offered my hand. “Psi Mimi, why do you kneel? Please rise.”“Mistress, I have a request, please? Can I continue being your maid?” Mimi asked, staring at me with a pleading look. “I enjoy working for you, and being your maid is a great honor.”“Also a prestige,” Cameron added. “You will be a Mu, instead a Psi.”Mimi shook her head, but she blushed. “I d
We had a busy morning afterward. Mimi guided Rhos to enter the living room while she disappeared into the kitchen to prepare snacks and drinks. At first the Rhos were perplexed when they came. They stared at Cameron to get a clue of why he asked them to come to his house. “Please, have a seat first,” Cameron said, gesturing his hand to point at the couch. “My woman will join us soon.”I could hear Cameron as his living room was connected to the hall. I didn’t move fast because I was careful when I stepped downstairs. When I was in the living room, the Rhos stood as they might already guess that I was the one Cameron referred to as his woman. I smiled at them and nodded. “Thank you for coming. I need your help a lot.” “We, not only her,” Cameron corrected me. He offered his hand to me, and I held it while I took a seat too. “I think my father or Elder Tom hadn’t told you anything. But besides Mimi and Melanie, you will be the first people who know about our upcoming event.”The Rhos
