Chapter 52

Decker

I wake up long before my brothers and Emery. As I near the kitchen on my way to start some coffee, I can already smell the delicious aroma and know that I'm not the first early riser of the day. Before I even enter, I know exactly who it is that beat me to the first cup of joe, even the second cup be- cause both fathers-in-laws are sitting at the table when I en- ter.

"Good morning, you're up early." I state as I make my way over to the coffee pot.

"We wanted to get an early head start on my dear broth- er." Ledger smirks.

"What do you mean, a head start?" I lean against the counter and sip on the hot liquid.

"We were up until the wee hours, catching up, but appar- ently Colin can't hang. I spelled him so he could heal slowly over night, just so we could start all over this morning."

"Why don't you just kill him? I mean, the torture is nice, I guess, but I'd rather just be rid of him." These are my thoughts any way; not sure what the others think about it, though.

The former Beta sighs, "Your mother reminded us that we have to go through the Elder's first. We need to present the situation to them and hope that they grant us the power to decide for ourselves."

"Are you fucking serious? They will only end up saying no and sentencing him to a life in prison like they did with that Alpha that sat down there for years before he found a way to off himself. That should have been my mother's kill, not let him have the coward's way out!" I can't believe that we have to deal with the Elders on this!

"It may be different. Alpha Benjamin was one of us, a shifter, and an Alpha at that. Yes, he should have been exe- cuted for all the lives that he took in search of your mother, but the Elder's thought life in prison would be worse than death. Colin, he isn't a shifter, and because he is Ledger's blood, I'm hoping that they will take his plea into account." Spencer squeezes his mate's hand.

"I think it's time that the Queen and King get rid of the El- der's for that purpose. I feel that they have grown soft in their old age." I scowl.
