Chapter 53 Trial Deimos Zalia letslisten to everything that happens through our mind-link and I am still amazed that we can actually use it without having marked one another. I listen as she talks to Luna Hester about Benjamin finding Alpha Brad, that he probably put a block up to avoid getting disturb and that he just lost track of time.
She even reminds Luna Hester of a few occasions where Alpha Brad actually did that and that he probably be apologizing for the next two weeks. Luna Hester sees to calm down a bit after that and both of them. drink their coffee while Zalia tellsthat Luna Hester seems nervous to her.
"She doesn't have anything with her, but I don't want to turnay back on her for a second. How much longer before they get here?" Zalia asksand I look at my watch to see that they can be here any minute, I ask Leander to link Eryx while I tell Zalia that they are almost here. Leander givestwo thumbs up and I know that they are at the gate.
"Dad just linkedthat the Warrior at the gate informed him of the King's arrival. I will inform Luna Hester and tell her I will meet her downstairs, I can't face the King in my sweats, now can I?" I hear her say before I hear her tell - Luna Hester about the arrival of the King and Zalia is right that Luna Hester doesn't want her to face the King dressed as she is.
The moment the door closes behind Luna Hester Leander and I walk out of her bedroom and she rushes past us to get changed into a bit more appropriate attire. Leander and I pay our prisoners a visit, but all three of them are still unconscious and as we walk out Zalia exits her room. She smiles atbefore she walks into my arms and I guide her out of the door.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeander walks on her other side as we head down the stairs and the moment we step onto the front porch the King's convoy stops in front of the Pack-house. Luna Hester is looking rather nervous and if she knew what I know she had every right to be nervous, but right now I think she is nervous because her Mate isn't here to welcthe King.
Benjamin, where is Brad?" Luna Hester whisper yells as King Alwin steps out of his SUV and I chuckle when Eryx falls on his ass when Sila pushes him because she wants to get out of the SUV. Luna Hester's face pales when she seesstanding behind her, "Any dea where your Mate might be now, Luna?" Zalia asks her with a sweet smile.
Leander calls out to a few of our Warriors to follow him and Luna Hester looks from Zalia to Leander but neither one of them says a word, "What is going on, Mom?" I hear Elinor say from behindand I know she will be in for the shock of her life. Luna Hester seems to be unable to answer her question and I doubt Alwin wantsto tell her too much, "There will be a trial at the Palace soon and unfortunately your Father and your Brother will be the ones on trial.
If anyone else in this Pack will be joining them depends on what we uncover in the next few days. From this day until King Alwin decides otherwise Moon Ston Pack belongs to the Royal Family, no one is allowed in or out without permission from King Alwin I reply, not only to answer Elinor's question but also to answer any question the Pack-members might have. I watch as Dad passesinto the Pack-house and I know that within five minutes no one can enter the Alpha Office or the Alpha floor.
"King Alwin, what are my Father and Brother accused of?" Elinor asks and I can tell she has paid more attention during her training than most future Alphas do. King Alwin looks at Elinor as he thinks about how to respond to her question, "Elinor, your Father and Brother discovered something at the Palace and they made three attempts to forcefully mark someone. We are going to investigate what they did exactly and who was involved, but also who was aware of their plans." He answers her.
1/3 Finished Elinor looks at her Mother but Luna Hester seems to be deep in thought and Elinor continues to look at her Mother, but she doesn't react to the stares she gets from her Daughter. "Why are Pack-members telling.that you were here before the King arrived?" Elinor asks as she looks at me. “None of your business." Is my short response to her question and it is clear to see that she doesn't like my answer, "Zalia, care to explain?" Elinor asks.
"No." is Zalia's very short answer and before Elinor can ask anything else Sila asks where they will be staying, "With us, of course." Zalia says smiling before she turns her back on Elinor, not because she hates or dislikes Elinor. No she just doesn't want to answer any questions regarding this investigation, she knows better than to give Elinor a peek into her cards.
Leander walks out of the Pack-house followed by six Warriors, each pair is carrying a male between them and I see Elinor staring at her Father and Brother. "Get them to the Palace, place them three cells apart. and guards around the clock down there. I want to know about every word they say, no matter how insignificant it might seem." King Alwin commands and the Warriors place the three males in three different vans "Ith guards.
I stay outside with Leander on the front porch, while Zalia takes Sila and Asha up to the Gamma floor and Eryx follows them because he will be removing the bugs from their floor. He will also check the Beta and Alpha floor for bugs, because I doubt Brad or Donovan placed them and something tellsthat our mystery guest from last night knows more about them. The moment the vans pull away from the Pack- house Luna Hester seems to get pulled out of her thoughts and Elinor has the honor to tell her what happened.
"What trial are you talking about?” Luna Hester asks when Elinor is finished talking and we tell her that we can't say anything about it until the investigation is over but that it involves forceful marking. “Has that fucking bitch been spreading lies?" Luna Hester yells and I am glad that Zalia isn't here right now. "Mom, calm down. Who are you talking about?" Elinor asks and Luna Hester words shock the hell out of all of us.
"Zalia will take this Pack away from us, she is claiming that she is the rightful Alpha and she has done everything to ruin what your Father has built. The tapes we listened to were fabricated, Donovan never said any of those words." Luna Hester keeps telling lie after lie, but suddenly Kianda steps forward to tell her side of the story and we all find out that there is a third witness to the conversation. The future Luna of Little River Pack and I know she will testify on Zalia's behalf.
Luna Hester demands that Zalia leaves the territory, but only the Alpha of a Pack can do that and he is nowhere near here. Besides that King Alwin has taken over the leadership of Moon Stone Pack, so even if he was here it wouldn't have done them any good. "Beta Fred, take Luna Hester to the Beta floor. Elinor can pack a bag for her Mother and herself when Sila gets down here to escort her, no one is allowed on the Alpha floor." Alwin orders.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuna Hester wants to object but one look from Alwin has her shutting her mouth, after Beta Fred leads her inside the quiet returns to the front porch. Alwin has a strange look on his face as he looks at me, I wonder what is going through his mind, something tellsI will get an answer to that question soon. "Deimos, I found bugs on all top floors and in the srooms as on the Gamma floor. He fargeted the rooms you would would be safe to talk in." Eryx says through the mind-link.
"Did you remove all of them?" I ask him and after he confirms that they are all taken away I suggest to Alwin that we head up to the Gamma floor. I walk up the stairs with Alwin and Leander right behindand along the way many females ogle us openly, even the King who has a Mate but it doesn't seem to stop them from staring at us. "I want Zalia, I miss my Angel" Goliath growls as a female smiles atand she givesa very unpleasant feeling.
We walk up the stairs as fast as we can and I don't care, we look rude, I don't want any of these females anywhere near me. Two Warriors stop on the landing of the Gamma floor and I sigh in relief the moment 2/3 Finished Leander closes the door behind us, "Which female chased the three of you up the stairs?" Benajmin asks teasingly as I walk into the living room to find my Mate in an armchair near the window, I lift her out of her seat to place her in my l and I bury my face in her neck.
She wraps her arms around my neck as she snuggles closer to my body and I feel myself relax in her arms, while Goliath is finally settling in the settling in the back of my mind. No one says a word when Eryx places the bugs he found on the coffee table. "Don't worry, they are no longer operational." He says as he sits down and we are all waiting for Sila to return to the Gamma floor. I know our King well enough to know that he won't ask any questions until she has returned.
I hear the others talking as I enjoy the comfort of my Mate, I didn't get much sleep with two attempts on Zalia during the night and 1 slowly O drift off to sleep "Handsome, you have to wake up." I hear Zalia say in my head, but I so do not want to wake up. I muzzle her neck as I mumble for her to leavealone, "Handsome, you better wake up or I am going to allow Alwin to do it." She says and I open my eyes to look at her in disbelieve. "You wouldn't." I growls softly.
"Well, you're awake now. So you will never know if I would or wouldn't have." She says with a smirk on her face and when I look at Alwin I see a devilish smile on his face, Yeah my Mate would have soldout. Sila is seated on a couch with Eryx, but this tAmmon and Asha are not present and neither is Benjamin. "Dad is showing them around the Pack-house, Asha wanted to see how people react to their presence here." Zalia says. Looks like Alwin has to wait a little longer before he can ask his questions, but something tellsthat Zalia will point out that Axelle isn't here and that it would be best to discuss this either at the Palace or during the trial.
