It is a good thing I was able to last and control myself until she tried out all five pairs of lingerie I got her. Macy was happy and thanked me for my gifts.
I had some paperwork to finish, so I left for my office, leaving Macy all alone in the room again.
The pack had many things at hand that needed attention, which I am trying my best to wrap up.
I had a meeting with the elders tonight concerning the betrayal of Finn, and also to discuss the news that I had finally found my mate.
My pack is one of the biggest in the States, and after what we discovered back in Alveria, all the packs in the States have decided to have a meeting by the next full moon to discuss the issues at hand.
I still had to mark my mate, there was a lot to do in a short time.
I heard a knock on my office door,
” Come in,” I ordered and Greg walked in, he moved and took the seat opposite my desk.
His countenance showed that he was not in a good mood,
” What is it?”
He shrugged before looking at me with anger in his eyes. ” Liam, I am just coming from the cellar, and Finn will still not spill a word about why he decided to betray his pack, and it is fucking annoying,”
” You should not worry yourself concerning, Finn, he will definitely talk,” I assure my Beta who seemed to troubling himself.
” How’s the preparation for the meeting tonight?” I asked.
” Everything has been arranged, Alpha, your Dad and I have made all the necessary arrangements.”
I nod my head at his words, “How’s Luna?”
I take a deep breath at my Beta’s question, as I remember all that happened in my room some hours ago.
” I finally told her that she’s mine and the Luna of our pack,” I tell my Beta, who is also my best friend.
” Did she take it right?” he asks curiously.
I stay quiet at his words without saying a word, I simply close my eyes, massaging my head with my hands.
” I’m guessing she did not?” Greg continues with a concerned look on his face.
” She is scared Greg, she doesn’t think she is capable of leading a pack of wolves when she’s human,”
” If I were in her position I’d be scared too, nevertheless, it is in your position to make her believe that she is fully accepted here, that she has you beside her to teach her the ways of the pack. Show her that there is nothing to be scared of,”
Greg speaks out, and all that my best friend has spoken of is correct, it is my duty to make sure that Macy does not see us as a threat and is willing to accept us and stand by my side.
” That is my sole responsibility Greg, and I’ll make sure Macy accepts her status as my mate and Luna of Waterfall.”
Greg stayed back in the office and helped me in wrapping up my remaining work, After we finished I decided to go for a short run and let Rage out.
In an hour, I was done with my run, I walked back to my room and found Macy sleeping on the bed. I quietly entered the bathroom and took a quick shower and wore something casual.
I walked up to my mate sleeping peacefully on the bed, and placed a kiss on her head, before heading out. It was time for the meeting. I strolled downstairs with the servants bowing their heads in respect as I walked past them.
Dad and Greg are both in the living room discussing something among themselves but cut it short as soon as they notice my presence.
” Has everyone arrived yet?” I asked as I approached them.
” Yes, Alpha, they are all waiting in the boardroom,” Greg answers.
” Let’s not keep them waiting then,” I said with a grin and led the way with my Father and Beta behind me.
The room was filled with both men and women seated in their seats, as I walked inside, everyone’s chatter died down making the room turned silent. You could hear a pin drop.
I walked over to the seat meant for me, it was higher than everyone, making it easier for me to see each one of them.
The Council of Elders consists of a total number of seventy persons, With the men having the highest number of fifty in total while the women were only twenty.
After taking my seat with my Beta beside me and Leon, my gamma beside Greg, the meeting commenced.
” All rise and pay respect to our Alpha!” Elder Andy, the head and the spokesperson for the elder’s forum, declares.
Everyone in the room rises to their feet and all heads are bowed in respect to me and thereafter, they all howl together.
I gesture to them to take their seat with my hand lifted, which they all do.
” Alpha, thank you for granting us an audience in a long time,” Elder Andy says, and I roll my eyes at his words.
” I have been extremely busy, Elder Andy,” I reply with no sentiments on my face.
” Now, all of you are aware of what one of our own has done, there is one thing that I would never accept and that is one of my own betraying me.” I continued.
They all had disappointed looks on their faces, a man raises his hands to speak,
” Speak I ordered.”
” Alpha, what Elder Finn has done is not forgivable we are all aware of that, he has put your mate and the future Luna of this pack in danger that almost cost her life. Nevertheless, we have to consider the reason he decided to work with an enemy against his pack, this is my thoughts.”
Another hand was raised and this time it was a female, who looked in her sixties.
” Alpha, whatever Finn’s reason was, he had no right to put the life of an innocent woman in danger, he had to be punished according to the laws of Waterfall, these are my thoughts.”
After a few remarks concerning Finn, some Elders voiced their thoughts, while the others only watched closely.
” Alpha, there are some concerns about your mate being a human tha….”
” What about my mate being a human?” I asked with gritted teeth, cutting off Elder Andy, whose head was bent in respect toward me.
” Alpha, with all due respect, this will be the first where a human would be mated to a Waterfall Alpha. In all the years of our pack being in existence, your lineage has been formed by Werewolves only. This situation might in some way affect your bloodline in the future. I am only stating a fact, Alpha.”
” Nobody will ever think about this nonsense again! She is my goddess chosen, and I will mark and make her my Luna, anybody who is not in line with that can forever keep silent!” I declared, with anger in my tone,
How dare these old folks think they can tell me what’s wrong or right concerning my mate.
” I am sorry, Alpha if my observations stirred up anger,” he says with fear evident in his eyes.
” Nobody says anything negative about my mate, from now onwards, whoever falls victim would have to be reminded why I am feared in the werewolf race!” I say with gritted teeth, my aura slowly seeping out.
They all nod their head in response. We discussed other pressing issues at hand and after two hours, the meeting came to an end.
My wolf and I were pissed with what Elder Andy said during the meeting, I missed Macy and needed her sweet scent to calm both me and my beast down.
I walked into the living and her scent hit me, she was downstairs, and she left the room again. I followed her scent into the kitchen, and I was surprised to see her with Mom preparing dinner.
Macy had a knife in her hand and was chopping up some vegetables, while she and Mom seemed to be in a happy conversation, she was laughing at whatever Mom said.
My heart melted at both of them, “Liam Son, you are here!” Mom says,
Macy looks up at me with a surprised look, just then I heard a gasp, Macy held her finger in her hand with pain showing on her face. Immediately I smelt blood!
I ran to her and took her hands in mine. She had cut herself with the knife,
” Macy! Please be careful, you are bleeding,” I scolded her angrily. Before she could say a word, I took her bruised finger and put it inside my mouth as I sucked on the finger.
Macy looked shocked at my actions, eyes wide as she stared at me, she tried to speak, but I hushed her with her hand lifted.
” Don’t!” I murmur.
