43 The Concil and Somemore

~Sylvester~

What Tamia did blew me away. She fearlessly came to my defence and put the

council in their place. I was blessed.

I looked at Dominic’s box and was

grateful that he did not come. The

hearing would have been difficult if he had shown up. Of everyone, he was the only one that could disrespect me without

consequence. It wasn’t that I could not deal with him, but I had to respect my mother and not hurt her by hurting him.

Larry seemed disappointed, and I figured he must have planned something with Dominic. I needed to investigate that man. Even though we all knew Dominic did not have the smarts to pull off

something of that magnitude, I could not say the same for Larry.

Tamia was right when she asked them if they traced the documents. As much as they wanted to end the conversation after emphasising attacking Bane and Leo, I had to decline their request to end the

meeting.

Pamela clamoured on Leo’s issue deliberately. She said many things about the eastern alpha while watching Tamia’s reaction. I knew what she was trying to prove, but I knew Tamia belonged to me and her heart beat only for me. 2

“Have you all finished?” I finally spoke,

and there was silence. Then Vino stood to

speak.

“Yes, we have, your lordship, and we ask to close the meeting,” he said, and I

shook my head.

“Today isn’t a silent day for me,” I said, and Vino sat back in his chair.

I looked at Pamela.

“What did you say were alpha Leonardo Albert’s crimes?” I asked her.

“Word has it that he has teamed up with Bane to help build his army, of which they plan on marching up north to overthrow you and take over,” she said with conviction, and I smiled.

“And where did you hear this?” I asked, and she did not look so confident again.

“We must keep our ears to the ground

and listen for harmful news that can

bring the downfall of our structure.” She

explained, and I smiled.

“In other words, it is a rumour,” I said,

and she was silent.

“And you ask me to launch an attack against this alpha based on a rumour that has no origin or facts,” I said so she could

understand the stupidity of her request.

“I also did not miss that you kept looking at my mate while you made that request, I said and smiled.

“Let this be the last time this council will try to use Tamia’s ex-husband as bait. It is low and disrespectful. It is stupid and baseless, and I am highly disappointed in all of you.” I said.

“You all called me here for a question and answer session based on baseless

allegations. I would have been impressed if you had done your work, but you didn’t.

” I said.

“While you are all trying to create an issue out of nothing, there is a serious matter pending that we are yet to discuss, ” I said, and they were attentive.
