REAGAN'S POV.

Kyle is organizing the girls and the guys who are going to testify against Alina. Ronald and my military men have Alina bound and prepared to make her walk of shame into the hall and I'm seated at the high table, my eyes hovering around the hall, eyeing the crowd before me and preparing myself for the drama that's about to take place.

Whether you were here to witness that incident or not, I'm sure you know about it by now because it has spread not just all over the pack, but to the neighbouring packs as well and right now, it's on the lips of every pack subject and high ranking official." I step away from my seat and go to stand Infront of the table, facing the crowd. They are all staring at me curiously, probably trying to figure out where I'm driving to with my speech.
