Gibson isn’t alone either and I take a picture of the scene in front of me before I turn towards the device. I shoot at the device and again it switches from “Alive” to “Dead” in a split-second, I smile as I walk out of his room. Kianda is waiting a few feet away and she tapes the picture to the door the moment I have closed it behind me.
“I hope Kali and Elinor find the pictures,” Twilight says and I know that if they find the pictures all hell will break loose. By the time I have killed both of them and have returned to my room, it is near four in the morning. I place the device on my dresser near the door before I turn in for a few hours of sleep.
Roaring from the floors above me wakes me a few hours later and I smile as I realize that Donovan and Gibson just discovered that they are out of the competition. I quickly get dressed and exit my room at the same time Dad exits his room, and both of us run up the stairs to find Donovan and Gibson on the landing of the Beta floor.
Alpha Brad looks at both of them as they show him their devices and he shrugs his shoulders, “Too bad. I had hoped you would make it further into the competition.” He says and I see two very pissed-off Sisters walking toward their Brothers, even Alpha Brad takes a step back from them.
“What the fuck is this?” Both of them ask in unison as they hold the pictures in front of their Brothers, Donovan tries to take it away from Elinor but he hasn’t counted on his Mother. Luna Hester grabs both pictures and I see a murderous look appear on her face when she sees what the pictures show, she turns them towards Alpha Brad for him to take a look.
Alpha Brad roars as his eyes are glued to the pictures, the entire Pack-house shakes from the aura that seeps out of him and everyone submits to Alpha Brad. I lower my head out of respect for him but his aura doesn’t affect me, it has never affected me and I learned quickly to hide that fact from everyone else.
Alpha Brad orders everyone to the dining room through the mind-link and I know he will expose Donovan and Gibson’s little secret, I hope he will reveal their elimination from the competition first. Dad places his arm around my shoulder as we walk down the stairs and I see all of our Pack-members walk to the dining room.
“I will not waste too much of your time.” Alpha Brad says. “Our leadership has been taken out of the competition. I had hoped they would have gotten further into the competition, but we don’t always get what we want. The next thing I want to address is something I had hoped would never happen with my Son, he chose to sleep with a Pack-member and so did Gibson.”
I can hear murmurs all around me and everyone is looking around to find out who they might have slept with. Alpha Brad clears his throat and every head snaps back towards him, “I have decided that Donovan and Gibson will not take over the Pack, their Sisters will form the future leadership for Moon Stone Pack.” He says.
Kali and Elinor stare at him, while Donovan is growling at his Father. Luna Hester doesn’t hesitate to smack him on the back of his head.
Donovan
I never liked the way I was raised, a female shouldn’t be allowed to fight or to have a high rank within a Pack and as I grew older I found out I had to hide my true feelings. Dad made it very clear that if I didn’t follow his rules I wouldn’t be allowed to take over the Pack from him and I had to bite my tongue a lot.
Zalia is an excellent Warrior and she is a well-trained Gamma, but I never wanted her as my Gamma. I kept an eye on Slater as he followed his Father and Sister around and I knew I wanted him as my Gamma, when I asked Gibson about it I found out he agreed with me.
We also didn’t like the rule on not sleeping with Pack-members or sleeping with females who offered themselves during Pack visits, luckily for us, we could sneak off under the pretense of training. Our last night at the meeting we finally were able to convince the females that caught our eye to sleep with us, but we had both fallen asleep.
Hearing Dad in my head woke me up that morning and I hoped no one would be in the suite anymore, Gibson and I had already discussed how to get into the shower fast. The moment I saw Zalia and Deimos I knew they would smell the scent of sex on us, but I had not counted on my Father being there with them.
The moment I heard Zalia speak I knew Dad would know we didn’t use protection and after that, it went downhill fast. She ruined everything for me and Gibson, I talked to Gibson about asking Slater to become our Gamma and we decided to wait until we got home to sit down with him.
That didn’t go as planned either, because Slater was offered the Gamma position in another Pack and all the paperwork was already taken care of. I was stuck with Zalia whether I liked it or not and if I wanted to take over from my Father I had to make sure I played according to his rules.
Then the news about the competition for the title of Royal Pack came in and I knew we needed Zalia to win this competition, but I probably screwed up when I didn’t respond to Rick’s remark. Gibson and I were trying to come up with a way to fool Zalia, that we forgot about her when we left Blue Blood Pack and Mom nearly bit my head off because of it.
This morning was the worst when I woke up and saw the word “Dead” on my device, someone came in at night and took us out of the competition. I left my room so fast to find Gibson that I didn’t notice something being taped to my door and I knew I was in deep shit when Elinor held the picture up in front of me.
I watch our Pack-members quiet down as Dad looks at them and I see the disappointment on their faces when he tells them we are out of the competition, but I never thought he would discuss my sleeping around with the Pack. Well, technically he didn’t as he just informed them of it and I can hear the murmurs as I keep looking ahead.
I growl the moment he says that Elinor will take over from him and I know I will fight him every step of the way, I am the firstborn Pup of the Alpha. I will have to talk to Zalia and make sure she sticks with me and Gibson when we talk to Dad about this, he needs to see that we are a complete leadership.
By the time everyone has calmed down I look around for Zalia, but she isn’t in the dining room anymore and when I try to link her, I run into a block. I will talk to her at lunch and make sure she meets us in my office. “Donovan and Gibson, my office. Now.” Dad growls as he walks out of the dining room.
Beta Fred guides Elinor and Kali to Dad’s office and I wonder why he wants them in there as well, guess I will find out soon. We all sit down in Dad’s office, “Donovan, you will clear out your office. Elinor will start using it immediately as she needs to find herself a new Gamma, Zalia will never accept the position of Gamma within this Pack and that is all thanks to you and Gibson.
I am glad you are already out of the competition or I would have pulled you out. My only regret is that Zalia didn’t get to prove her worth to the other Packs, she will make a great Gamma one day and I will ask King Alwin to help her find that position elsewhere.” Dad says.
Zalia
I leave the dining room as everyone tries to wrap their heads around the announcement
Alpha Brad just made, “Dad, I will be staying with Gaia for a while. I don’t want to see Donovan and Gibson until I know what I am going to do.” I say through the mind-link and he tells me to take all the time I need to make a decision.
I pack two bags to take with me and I place the device on before I sneak out of the Pack-house, Gaia is waiting for me outside the Pack-house to walk me to her house. “What are your plans for tonight?” She asks as she shows me to the guestroom that will be mine for a while.
