Chapter 0270

“As a pack Alpha I would hope that your skills would be keen enough to handle the likes of fiverogues not much bigger than myself. Although, I’ve never seen you fight so it’s just an assumption.If a small fight like that renders you useless, maybe you are in the wrong position.” I stand next toAlpha Reggie, hands clasped behind my back doing my best to school my face into somethingneutral. “There are always threats, power has that effect on some people. It will never go away andas Alphas and Elders you should know that and understand that to be a huge part of your jobdescription.”

“Watch your tone, girl. You have no business being here in the first place. More regulations havebeen ignored where you are concerned than anyone I have ever heard of. You need to removeyourself from this official meeting with the leaders of our kingdom.”

“You are incorrect in many of your assumptions Emanuel. First she earned her way here, the agerestrictions are to help wolves replace their mates, nothing more. Second, she belongs in this meetingbecause she was involved in the fight and managed to capture and keep alive the one rogue wehave been able to interrogate. Something your warriors should consider next time, capture not kill,we get more answers that way. Third, as a leader in her pack she is representing her Alpha in hisabsence. You would do well to remember who is in charge, we have a hierarchy for a reason andyou have been selected to be a part of that, not in charge of it, but the Moon Goddess has alsoremoved those privileges too. Many of you have become too comfortable in your positions andforgotten what your position entails.” His pointed look swept the room. “Now, we were discussingopening the branding ritual for Skylar so she can communicate the next time she is required toassist us in battle.”

The same Alpha spoke up as an Elder looked ready to speak. “We have already done the ritual forwarrior branding and she is far too young. That level of connection is privileged, she has not earnedit yet.” I am seething inside, but doing my best to keep a neutral face. This is why I would not be

good in a leadership role, I really want to punch him and if he keeps talking sh*t I just might jumpover this table and give into my impulses.

“You really are a misogynistic moron aren’t you?” Another Alpha speaks up. Alpha Beau from theEclipse pack doesn’t usually speak up or say much unless he’s asked a direct question. He’s asilent observer, but from what I understand, he more than makes up for it on the field. “You werethere today, right? The training grounds where she,” He points at me, “managed to not only keepherself and her friends safe, but is also the only one to have a live captive to question.”

“My warriors did what was best, kill the lot of those filthy rogues.”

“But we can’t get answers from the dead. Things like how many of them are working together, wouldbe nice to know.”

“They are rogues. By definition they do not work together.” Alpha Emanuel spat, like this was anabsolute answer.

“The way that they fought today would suggest otherwise.” I finally say. This guy needs to stepdown and let his heir take over, he's going to get everyone killed with that narrow mind.

“You don’t know what you are talking about, silly girl. Let the men speak.” Amanuel hisses at me.
