The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 207
Raizel steps beside me, slipping his arm around my waist. He drops a kiss to my forehead before. leading us inside. I try to search for anything in our bond, his feelings are completely open to me. 1 don’t sense anything from him. Either he was excellent at keeping a facade or he simply didn’t think much of this at all. Regardless, it helped me calm down. We reached the entrance just in time as the door creaks open.
It’s Opal who greets us, sending us a small smile as she wordlessly walked us to the conference room. Noah, Isaac, Weston and Emerson lag behind, looking around on high alert as they silently make note of our surroundings. Meredith and Raizel’s parents stayed behind. The two Locksworth’s had made their way back to Ignis Red to keep watch for the duration of our time here.
The power from all the Alphas being in the same area put everyones wolves on edge; almost tense to the point their muscles bulged out in preparation in case something happens. Even Noah himself hardly said a word since we set out for the Capital. He didn’t bother bicker with Weston either which in itself, was a surprise.
Walking down the corridor, Raizel and I step into the conference room, immediately catching the eyes of everyone inside. Williams is sat at the center of the wide wooden table, his face grim and hard as his brown eyes scanned the room. Elizabeth sat beside him, her face more weary than I anticipated. There’s complete silence.
So silent you’d hear a pin drop. The gravity in the room was thick- heavy with trepidation. It was the perfect setting for a fight to break out. One wrong move could quite possibly trigger aggression from anyone. My wolf was on alert, not liking the way how some gazes felt. More specifically, Nightwake gazes.

I sensed them before I even laid my eyes on them.
Hestia sat beside my mother, their hands intertwined as my father stood.
Her face was pale, blue eyes hollow and sunken in. Her blonde hair in a half-hearted ponytail and the hand mark around her pale neck was evident enough that what they’ve accused of Landon was true. Somehow I still couldn’t believe it. Had someone told me this would happen four years ago, I’d never believe it. The stress of pregnancy and the current situation shows in her expression. The way her posture was loose, shoulders hunched forward and head tilting down. Still, I turn from her and look at Williams. He nods at us, gesturing to the seats. Silently Raizel and I sat down, taking note how the Alphas in the room all stared at the marks at our necks. The power shift is almost incredible. One minute no one is saying anything and now, a second later everyone is whispering amongst themselves.
“Landon Walker is in detainment as you all know.”
Williams looks at me before shifting his gaze to the rest of the Alphas. All conversations cease as they listen to him.
“There’s a question of his capabilities as Alpha. The assault on Luna Walker and his recent…actions” He emphasizes the word, obviously hinting at the brawl between Raizel and Landon. There’s no question that word had spread. Everyone in this room knew of what happened. There’s simply no way no one knows about it. Something as big as that would definitely make it far across wolf territory.
“-Have led to a dispute of whether he is worthy of keeping the title. You’re called here to set a vote, to discuss what should happen to Nightwake. The pack involved is here to offer their own ideas. Should any Alpha in this room make a challenge, it will be discussed after casting vote.”
Chapter 267
I glance over to the group sitting with behind Hestia. Familiar faces stare back at me with what seems to be desperation. Desperation for what, I’m not so sure. Surely they don’t expect me to come and save them, do they? Nightwake couldn’t possibly think I was going to involve myself willingly.
“Beta Dixon is here to speak for Alpha Walker.”
Benicio steps forward, his eyes never straying from mine. I can feel it deep in my bones that he’s about to start something. I see it in the way his eyes glint against the light in the room. Before he even opens his mout h, I brace myself for what he’s about to say.
