Chapter 324
“No, I don’t. But I think we can set a precedent right now to have true trials when one Alpha disagrees with another. If the roles were reversed, if he had Sophie and you attacked his pack… Ezra begins but stops as Hunter snarls. The room goes quiet as I reach over to take Hunter’s hand
“I’m perfectly safe, my love.”
“And you’ll stay that way,” he growls, tugging me to his side and wrapping a protective arm around me.
“I think Alpha Ezra has a point. Again, not that I in any way think that you are wrong Alpha Hunter, but I do believe we have an opportunity here. We will have a new Alpha, and we’ve talked about bringing the Lunas in to be part of Committee, although, we need to change the name, since it’s not solely going to be a Committee of Alphas any longer,” Nikki says.
“What are you thinking, baby?” Robin asks his mate
“What if we have our new Alpha preside over the trial. It would be a good opportunity for him or her to get involved and to see what the rest of their tenure as Alpha will be like. But Zahn can’t say that there is any bias, as the new Alpha hasn’t been involved with any of this. Even if it is one of our Betas who wins the pack, they weren’t at the Committee meeting where Hunter and Sophie were on trial, they weren’t in the pack when Owen or Joshua attacked. It also gives us, the Lunas, an easy start to being in these trials, understanding how they run, when and how to ask questions, that sort of thing.”
“So, it’s not really a trial?” Dutton asks.
“Well, it is, but I think we already know what the verdict of this one will be. Although, having a new Alpha on board may change the way we look at things. And, it will be Amelia’s first trial too, if she can attend. It would be good for her as well, I think,” Nikki adds.
Robin looks at the group, smiling proudly. He’s trying to hide it, but he can’t. “Unless you have a really good argument, Hunter, you won’t win this one. My girl doesn’t like to lose, at anything”
he says
“He’s an Alpha, baby. He doesn’t like to lose either,” Nikki says a bit too sweetly, making Robin smile even wider. Those two…

“Okay then, let’s get through today and the second order of business for our new Auge will be a preside over this trial.” Ezra says
“What’s the first order of business” Margot asks him
“Getting his pack settled, of course,” he says, his gaze so intense, that she looks away blushing
“Well, then, let’s get this day started,” Robin says, rubbing his hands together excitedly
“How many do you have left in the competition” Hunter asks Robin and the Alphas all begin talking about how many pack members they have left. It seems pretty even
“Thank you for supporting me,” Nikki says, linking her arm through mine
