The Luna’s Choice by Kat Silver

Chapter 80: Ayla

Three days.

It had been three days since we had started the trial and it finally felt like we were getting close to a decision. We didn’t think we would get a unanimous agreement on the executions, but we didn’t need it. The majority support would be uncontestable in this situation. Protecting us from any retribution from other pack members.

After Theo had closed out the proceedings for the day, I invited the women for dinner and drinks in the cafeteria. I had reserved the private room off the main dining area thinking it would be a good opportunity to decompress before making any decisions the following day.

Annabelle had helped organize the get–together, which was a goddess- send with it being such short notice. I extended the invite to all Lunas, but it wasn’t a requirement, so I was curious to see who would attend. I was pleasantly surprised that all of them showed up.

It wasn’t a large group. Out of the nine packs, only five currently had mates. Six, if you included Theo and I as acting Alpha and Luna. However, there were three Beta’s mates that had also come along as well as Mina and Maggie, of course. But it was a nice balance. Even when the evening was in full swing, it still felt intimate.

“Thank you for coming,” I said as I handed Luna Victoria, Alpha Harden’s mate, a glass of wine. “It has been so nice to finally meet you. Alpha Harden has spoken so highly of you.”

“I can say the same about you, my dear,” Luna Victoria replied with a bright smile.

“Oh, honey, most Luna’s aren’t,” Luna Emma said. “Rarely do those who plan to be Luna actually become one.”
