Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games

Chapter 109

Pack Councils vary in numbers based on the size and needs and politics of the pack. Westin Pack has seven council members overseeing pack needs. But the Grand Council only ever had five. And once on the Grand Council you were there until death. It was a lifetime commitment. They released all ties to their original pack, including their mates and pups. The thought behind it was that they have absolutely no loyalties aside from the greater good of the wolf shifter world.

Of course, that's how things were supposed to work. You often found Grand Council members to be extremely old and wise, but they were still fallible beings as well with self-motives and were not above corruption. In order to overthrow a Grand Council ninety percent of the established packs must join together to make it happen. Since packs were very territorial and rarely agreed on anything, this had only happened once in all of known wolf history.

The current Grand Council is comprised of Cedric, Omar, Titus, Victor, and Callum. Callum came to them on curious terms having been initiated far younger than his counterparts and without having taken a mate previously. The other four surpassed their mates in life making them more ideal for the positions. Then again, this council had issued more than its fair share of questionable laws and verdicts. I didn't trust them with the safety of my mate and though we hadn't discussed it, I knew Kelsey was aware of the bags packed and stored under our bed in case we found cause to flee for her safety.

"Titus, you know me, there is nothing underhanded going on here. I have told the Grand Council, we do not understand why their bond grew so quickly or why it began to forge prior to their actual consummation. They fought it for over two years. Clearly their wolves did not believe that time to be rejection." Jason's voice boomed from the front hallway outside his office.

"I hear what you are saying, Jason, but it doesn't make sense. We understand and witnessed with our own eyes the extent of their bond at the challenge. The Grand Council will support you in terminating any further mating challenges for either of them. However," I held my breath waiting to hear the bad news I felt in my bones was coming, "the Bulgarians are demanding a full inquiry into the female. Stories have floated around that she was a lone wolf permitted to live in Westin Territory and even protected by your own Council despite blatant disregard for you and your pack. It is unclear exactly what the special circumstances were around that situation, but we do intend to get to the bottom of it. There will be a full inquiry. I am sorry. There is nothing I can do to stop it."

to pursue this because I killed Andon. Going after my mate was nothing more than revenge, but there was no way for them to know the skeletons they were about to find in
