Alpha’s reluctance
He went to the supreme council… he left the packhouse without even telling her. She should be mad at him for not telling her before he went but she what she felt in her heart was more of worry than anger. Why had the council summoned him? For what reason? Did something bad happen? Ava could do nothing but fear and hope that her love returns to her safely.
“Dear moon goddess, please keep my mate safe from harm, don’t let anything bad happen to him…” she prayed in her heart as she returned to his chambers.

“Welcome Alpha Lucas De’ Clan and Gamma Filip Kirundi to this meeting. We are entirely grateful for the fact that you heeded to the call from our messenger on time even though such short notice was given. We apologize for any inconveniences you may have encountered due our sudden disturbance.”
“Your apology is accepted,” Lucas replied to council member Konrad, the first member. “Although I trust that it will not happen again.”
“Unfortunately, we cannot promise that, Alpha Lucas De’ Clan,” the second member, a she wolf, Saoirse cut in. “A situation beyond our control may occur at any time to which we must tend to immediately with the help of the respective leader involved, but if it is something that we will be able to make room for a prior notice next time, we will make sure to do so, sadly the matter of which we have summoned you here was not one of such.”
Lucas felt the need to get straight to the point. He didn’t like to keep his mate waiting. “Why have you summoned the leadership of the dawn pack here?”
Saoirse continued.
“Two days ago, you and Alpha Ethan Cambini engaged in physical combat, and the outcome was that you, Alpha Lucas killed Alpha Ethan Cambini. Is this information correct?”
“Yes, Ethan challenged the life of my mate, I killed him in self-defense. He attacked me even after I spared his life.”
“The reason for which you killed him is irrelevant Alpha Lucas, we only summoned you here because of the outcome of your actions against the late Alpha of the moonlight pack.”
“And what is it?”
“You, Alpha Lucas De’ Clan are by default supposed to take over the leadership of the moonlight pack the minute you ended the life of its former leader.”
