Chapter 59: Committee of Alphas Hunter

I can feel my mate's tension as we walk into the committee chambers. The Alphas, being pompous a**holes, made sure that their seats sat up much higher than those who were there to be heard. This way, they can literally look down their noses at you.

When Ezra walks in, he raises his eyebrow, looking at the seating arrangements. "Choosing sides already, I see," he says, sitting beside Kayce.

"That's Ezra," I say in an aside to Sophie.

"And that?" she asks about the Alpha who just sat down on the right side of the seating area.
