Chapter 0254
“We join future luna Lily’s request for an immediate and special council meeting.” Alpha Brett announced,
“On what grounds?” Councilmember Steven Herman demanded.
“We have two grounds to demand a meeting, Member Herman,” Alpha Aaron responded. “The first is that we have discovered evidence that very serious werewolf crimes have been occurring within West. Mountain Pack for years. We demand that the council immediately intervene and remove Alpha Randall from his position and replace him with his son.”
I heard a few gasps from the ballroom, but I let out a sigh of relief. Now I knew that everything was going to be okay. Thank Goddess that I had figured out a way to get to Neil last night,
“We have already completed our investigation of West Mountain Pack, alphas,” Councilmember Herman said. “We have been here investigating for weeks. We were going to announce the results of our investigation tonight. We have concluded that there was no wrongdoing by anyone but Jenny Brogan. The pack has been managed impeccably.”

I thought for a second about what I would say, and then I decided there was no harm in just saying the truth. The council would back me up regardless.
“I just find it funny that my former daughter is on this stage acting as though she has a right to be here.
James growled. “You have no idea what you are talking about, Margie. She is my mate and the soon-to- be luna of this pack. I encourage you to take back your words before there are consequences.”
