Chapter 242

Yorick

I’m so excited that Cyra is here. I didn’t want to ask her to come because it means she’s missing classes, but I really wanted to see her.

“We don’t have time to do a full round of introductions. They’re ready for us inside. Can you stay afterward, Cyra? We can all go to lunch.”

“Of course,” she says. I kiss her again and then lead the group inside. When we get to the court room where the Council is already seated, i make sure Cyra is settled beside my mother and sisters and then I lead Wendy to the front. I squeeze her hand briefly to let her know that I’m

here for her.

As we walk forward, I see the Tech Team on my left. They are in a triangular formation with Tracker at point. They are standing in the exact same position, legs shoulder width apart with their hands clasped in front of them. As we walk up, I’m pretty sure I see Hacker and Hijack wink at Wendy. When I glance at my sister, I see her blushing.

Standing to the right of the room are Alpha Nevaeh, and Warriors Callie, Soren, and Ronan. Directly in front of the Council is Alpha Leo, surrounded by what looks like a military squad.

“Alpha Yorick Hill?” the lead councilman asks. There are four council members seated on a raised platform with the lead councilman standing

at the front.

“Yes,” I say. Connor said to only answer what is asked and nothing more.

The councilman turns to Wendy.

“Alpha Wendy Hill?”

“Yes, sir,” she says.

“I am Councilman Edward Richardson. My fellow council members are Rebecca Kaufmann, Jared Jackson, Leslie Sneed, and Nicholas Fellows. Do you know why you’ve been summoned before the Council today?” he asks.

“Yes, sir. We are here because of the allegations against Alpha Leo, allegations that probably came to light because I had questions about a student that was admitted to the Academy this year,” I answer

“A student that you ended up killing, is that correct?” he asks.

“Yes, that’s correct. He went after my mate. I retaliated.”

He glances at my neck, then looks behind me. “You seem to have brought a small army with you today.”

“They’re mostly here for Wendy. She’s underage as I’m sure you know,” I say.

Councilman Richardson looks at Wendy. “That’s quite a group of people you have here supporting you, young Alpha,” he says kindly.

“Yes sir. My family is very close. They love me,” she says, turning to smile at our family behind us before turning back.

“I can see that,” he says. “So, Alpha Yorick, how about we start with you. You noticed that the warrior, Jory, wasn’t up to the standards of the Academy, is that correct?”

“Yes, Councilman. I noticed during sparring matches that he was the weakest in the group. And while there will always be someone who is the weakest, his lack of skills on the sparring field were obvious when compared to the others in the class. One of my friends is a warrior and he’s much more powerful than Jory was,” I say.
