I am proud of our Princess as she answers every question the Elders ask, the Elders I am keeping an eye on seem to be impressed with how well prepared Hunter is. The more questions she answers the more relaxed the Elders become and it looks like their respect for her grows with every answer she gives.
From the corner of my eyes I see that Elder Ward is still looking at her as if she is an insignificant Pup, he seems to forget that she is our future Queen and one day the Council of Elders has to answer to us instead of Dad.
Elder Matthew’s question on the consequences of Elder Ward’s actions pulls me from my thoughts and I hear the Elders gasp as she inform him that Elder Ward could be getting the death penalty. Soft murmurs are heard as the Elders are talking among themselves for a few
moments.
“Elder Ward was informed that he holds no power, just like the rest of you. Law states that you are allowed to give your personal opinion on Laws if an Alpha asks you about it, but contacting Alphas to tell them to oppose a Law is forbidden.
He feels like he is above everyone else and that he is allowed to force others to follow his lead, but even his own family stopped opposing the Law once they found out he had not been completely honest with them.
After careful consideration of all circumstances in this matter we have decided to strip him of his title as Elder, if he wants to continue working for the Council of Elders he will be on probation for five years. If he decides to completely leave the Council of Elders he is no longer allowed access to the Palace.” She says.
She explains the details of his probation and why we chose this punishment instead of putting him to death, but she surprises all of us when she tells them this is probably not what he had been hoping for, “Elder Ward has given up on life.
He lost his Mate and Pup about a year ago, but I have a feeling none of you were informed of that. I can’t tell you what he has gone through, because I never lost anyone I care about and I doubt I can imagine what he is going through.
However, I want to remind him that he is not the only one that has ever lost a loved one and using their death as an excuse will not be tolerated.” She says as she is looking at former Elder Ward and I believe he finally understands that Hunter is very smart for a seventeen year old.
As the Elders talk amongst themselves Hunter walks towards Ward and strips him of his title. She asks him what he choses to do and he asks if he can have a few days to think about it, which she grants him.

By the time we emerge from the Throne room it is time for dinner and I hear Hunter giggle as Jax shakes his ass, probably feeling sore from sitting down so long. Not that I am doing much better, but at least she can’t see that I am walking a bit awkward.
Gabe burst out in laughter as he sees Jax looking at his seat with a pout, sitting down for dinner after our meeting with the Elders is apparently unappealing to him and by the look on Jayce’s face I can tell he feels the same. Truth be told I think Justin and I would rather not sit down as well, even Mom looks a bit uncomfortable as she slowly sits down.
