The Council Chapter 4: Jara

Jara

It was so good seeing Mignon and Annabel again. It was better knowing that they were both happy. I’m really excited for Mignon and her pregnancy, and I hope that soon, I’ll be pregnant as well, if I’m not already.

“So, are you all going to be in the meetings this weekend, or are you just here because your mates couldn’t part with you?” I ask, only partially teasing. I know Mason would have brought me along even if I didn’t want to be in the meetings. It’s too soon after being marked to be apart.

“Are we allowed in the meetings?” Annabel asks me.

“Why wouldn’t we be?” I ask.

She and Mignon look at each other. “Because we’re not Alphas.” They say in unison.

“But we’re Lunas.” Hana says. “We should be given an opportunity to speak and give our opinions. Especially since we are the future of our species. If anything, we should be the ones with they say and the voice, not the Alphas.”

“I guess you’re right. After the whole seating arrangement thing, what are they going to do? Tell us to leave? They can try. But if we refuse, the worst they can do is cancel the meeting. And that will just anger the Alphas.” Mignon says.

“That’s the spirit.” I tell her. I’m beginning to realize just how much power the four of us hold. And it’s not just us, it’s just that we all became friends during the claiming. We’re young, strong, of childbearing years and with mates who adore and support us.

When it comes to making change for the claiming process, we will definitely have a voice.

“Listen.” I lower my voice and look at Hana. She nods and I continue. “Hana, Seth, Mason and I are putting in a petition to change the way the manage the claiming process.” And Hana and I explain what we want to do.

“That would be so much better.” Annabel says.
