“This Is WAR!” he roars.
“As if you. Alaric, and Owen weren’t already planning that, regardless of the outcome of this meeting. I’m not stupid and I don’t underestimate the situation I’ve put myself and my pack in. They are aware and they have chosen to stay and fight for what is right.”
“How will you stand against three packs at once, Hunter? Is it worth it, to die for them?” Aiden asks.
Before he has a chance to answer, Robin steps in.
“You should be very careful, Aiden. Alpha Hunter already warned you about leaving your pack unprotected. If you are off fighting a war with Hunter, who’s watching your pack?”
“It wouldn’t be hard at all for, say, a neighboring Alpha to just walk in and take over, would it, Robin?” Kayce asks, as if they are having a simple conversation.
The room erupts into arguing, words slinging across the room all around me. The more I hear, the angrier I’m getting. These men, these Alphas, acting as if they have a right to decide the fate of women, as if we’re incapable of deciding for ourselves what we want.
“Enough!” I shout with enough Alpha aura to make the room stop and look at me.
Sophie
I move to stand in front of Hunter. He cocks his head at me curiously, and I feel his mind touching mine to see what I’m doing, but he doesn’t stop me.
“You are all forgetting one very important thing,” I snarl.
“And what is that,” Alpha Elias chuckles condescendingly.
“While I have no doubt that my mate would crush each and every one of you, decimating your packs for me, for our pack, and for what we believe in, I will also be waging my own war. How quickly you forget who I am. I am Sophie Meyers–Reynolds. You all know me as the face of this ‘revolution‘. Your ranked she-wolves have stood behind me, without me even knowing it, killing themselves in my name and for the future generations of ranked she–wolves. You do not want me as your enemy Alphas, because I guarantee you, if I were to actively start a revolution, none of
would be left standing. I would rally every ranked she–wolf together and we would fight, side

by side as sisters against each and every one of you, and we would win.”
I look at all of them, some shocked faces, some admiring faces, and some arrogant, disbelieving faces. “Because even if we lose, we win. We have much, much more to fight for than you. You, and the werewolf population, cannot survive without us. If you want to weaken the packs, leave only warriors and omegas to mate with, be my guest, although, I’d bet that soon enough, those she–wolves will join our cause as well,” I say, glaring at Owen,
“Do not push me, Alphas. You cannot afford to fight a battle against me and my mate on two separate fronts. You will lose. you will die, and your bloodlines will end.”
I stand my ground as the room stays quiet, everyone staring at me. I feel the heat of my mate as he comes to stand behind me.
“You heard my mate,” he says. “Come for us and you will die. Good day, Alphas,” he says, taking my hand and walking me out of the room.
The moment we’re outside, Hunter presses me against the wall, taking my mouth in a hot, dirty
kiss.
“You are so fucking sexy. I want to bury myself inside you and roar to the world that you’re mine.” he growls before kissing me roughly, desperately again.
“Isn’t there somewhere we can go?” I pant, as desperate for him as he is for me.
He pulls away, pressing his forehead against mine, panting with the nearly unbearable desire that I feel flowing through me.
“No, there’s nowhere that I can ensure that we won’t be interrupted. Fuck, Sophie. I was already so turned on by your submission, then you had to go all Alpha on that room full of Alphas. I swear I almost orgasmed just listening to you.”
“}
I giggle at that, knowing my mate has more control than that, but also knowing that seeing him taking on those Alphas was a huge turn on for me too.
“Sorry, am I interrupting?” Alpha Calvin says from beside us.
“No. Well, yes, but no,” Hunter says, pulling away from me and not so discreetly adjusting himself while I fix my clothing.
“Umm, I uh…” Calvin says, looking down then back up at me.
“I wanted you to understand my pause earlier, in the voting. It wasn’t about whether or not I believe that your mate deserves to remain an Alpha. You do, of course,” Calvin says, looking at
