Game of Destiny – A Thrilling Tale of Power, Love & Fate

Chapter 121-2

We woke up the next morning and ordered breakfast in our room. We got ready to join the first of many meetings. I made sure we timed it so we would be about five minutes early. I didn’t want Amie to be there longer than needed. The meeting was held in a big auditorium with a small stage at the front with podiums for speakers Most of the alphas and their plus ones had already arrived. As usual, the room was filled with arguments, some merely friendly hater, others almost to the point of turning physical. It was always like this on the first day. I took a deep breath. Our seats were on the first row so I had to take Amie through all of this chaos. As we walked into the room, the chaos slowly died out and everyone looked at Amie. It made my wolf go on high alert until I understood they had all scented she was pregnant. I didn’t think it would have had this effect on everyone. I looked for my brother and saw him stare at Amie’s stomach. She was wearing a white suit with gold details. It made her small bump almost invisible if you didn’t know what to look for. I guided Amie down the steps, along the way we talked to some of our allies and got well wishes from packs we didn’t have any connection to. The conversations around the room had picked up again, but they were less argumentative. When we arrived at the first row, Elder and James met us. James was sporting a new mate mark. Amies parents had told us a couple of days before leaving for the Alpha meeting that he and Carol had mated.

“Congratulations, James,” Amie said, sounding genuinely happy for him.

“Thank you,” he said and there was a small blush on his cheeks.,

“I had hoped I wouldn’t have to come this year,” Elder told us.

“I was thinking of bringing Carol, but then thought better of it,” James said, glancing in my brother’s direction. I got it. His mate had suffered at the hands of my brother, he didn’t want her to be around him. “I’m surprised Amie is here,” he added.
