Chapter Thirty-Three Book Two Chapter Thirty-Three Future Alpha Aspen | cringed as the front of my father’s truck met the metal gate of the council building. The sound of metal on metal caused goosebumps to cover my body as | threw my arm out to brace myself on the dash.
“Dad,” | shouted as the truck cto a halt in front of the building. Warriors surround the truck. Our warriors used their vehicles as shields as they caged in the truck and almost hit the warriors in the way.
My father jumped out of the truck and it was then I noticed the head of the coucil standing on the top of the stairs. A black blur flew over one of the SUVs before tackling the councilman.
“Damnnit, Dad,” | growled getting out of the truck.
| rushed around the front of the truck and through two SUVs before seeing my father’s wolf surrounded by council warriors. He was ripping apart the head of the coucil without a care in the world that they could open fire any second.
“Well, that was easy,” Luca exhaled beside me.
“Yeah, but what if he was the only one who knew where mom was?” | sighed as Gunner sat back and let out a howl.
“Everyone stand down,” | commanded as | rushed up Etairs. My father was now the head of the council.
“He can’t just storm in here without an official challenge in place. What he has done is an act of war,” a councilman argued coming out of the council building. Gunner growled as the member approached us.
“And taking his mate wasn’t an act of war,” Luca retorted.
“I admit we made a mistake but does that mean we should all be killed?” He gasped. Gunner got down, ready to pounce on the poor bastard.

“If you tell us where she is, then maybe | will stop him from killing you,” | said, crossing my arms over my chest.
“She? What are you talking about?” He questioned.
“Search the building. | want everyone who is inside to be brought ‘out here for questioning,” | told Connor who was standing on the other side of me.
“Yes, sir,” he replied before barking orders to the men.
“Luna Orion was taken from our pack earlier today and we want her back,” | demanded. The councilman looked nervous as he looked betweenand my father’s massive black wolf.
“I'm sorry that happened,” he stammered, “but it wasn’t the council.” Gunner let out a murderous growl and he paled before stepping back.
My father shifted back, covered in blood.
“You will giveback my mate, now,” he screamed as he pointed at him. Even | took a step back. I've seen him crazy before but he had reached a new level.
Chapter Thirty-Three “Alpha Orion, Luna Orion is not here,” he stuttered. “She hasn't been here since you claimed her as your second chance.” | stepped in front of my father before he could attack.
“We may need him.” My father stormed down the stairs, back to the vehicles, hopefully, to find pants as | ordered our men to take everyone down the the parking area. | didn’t need anyone falling down the stairs before, we got a chance to interrogate them.
My father stepped up besideafter our warriors had cleared out the building and their warriors were disarmed. Everyone made up two lines.
“We are looking for information on the whereabouts of Luna Orion,” | called out. My father let out a murderous growl with the mention of his mate. | knew this was going to be difficult for him but we needed information first before we could kill anyone. Everyone | could see took a step back away from us, but the commotion down the line caught my attention.
| marched over there and was surprised when a young girl pushed through and wrapped her arms around my waist. A furious older man followed her.
“Please, help me,” she begged.
“I'm sorry, Alpha,” the man spoke and reached for the girl with the death grip on me.
“Step back,” | ordered the man.
“She is a child, Alpha, she didn’t mean any disrespect,” he pleaded.
Chapter Thirty-Three “Don’t let him take me,” the girl cried as she held on totighter. | looked at my father before looking down at the girl. | brushed shair from her face to see bruises. She winced when | unwrapped her arms and kneeled to see her more clearly. | pulled up the sleeves of her shirt to see track marks.
“Please,” she mumbled and | looked up into her big brown eyes, filled with tears.
“I won't let them hurt you again,” | spoke softly to not scare her, even though | have never felt a fury like this before. “But | need you to stand with that man,” | pointed to Luca who stepped forward. | couldn't trust my father with this since | didn’t want the poor girl to see everyone getting ripped apart.
“No, please,” she pleaded.
“My nis Aspen and he is Luca. | trust him. No one is ever going to hurt you again.” | assured her. “I just don’t want you to see this.” She hesitated before nodding.

“That fucker is dead,” Bliz growled in my head “It's okay, Sweetie,” Luca held out his hand and | nudged her towards him.
When she was out of sight | grabbed the fucker by the throat. His eyes bulged out as his face turned red.
“Now, someone is going to tellwhat you have been doing to that poor girl,” | commanded.
“Alpha, Hailey is a Luna wolf. She had wandered into a pack and was
Chapter Thirty-Three brought her,” a staff member stepped forward. The man in my grip gargled as | crushed his throat before ripping it out. His limp body fell to the ground with a thump. Everything took a step back and my skin rippled with the need to shift. Luna wolf or not, how the hell do you justify testing a child? “Separate the staff and warriors from the members,” | ordered.
“If they would do this to a child, they would take your mother again,” my father grumbled stepping up beside me.
“This council needs to be cleaned up and even if Mom isn’t here, this was long overdue,” | glared at the remaining members.
“Luna Orion isn’t here,” a man shouted.
She may not be but | know what she would do if she was here and saw that poor girl. We had men at the pack tracking the SUV she was put into so we had tto deal with this shitshow.
“Dad, Mom would never allow this. We can’t just leave,” | told him.
“I'm going to sniff around inside to see if | can pick up her scent.” He gripped my shoulder. “I trust you.” He took off towards the front doors of the building, leavingto deal with this corrupt council. Little did they know, | was just as brutal as my father.
“Who knew about the girl?” | demanded. When no one stepped forward, Bliz forced the shift. He shook out his white coat before bearing his teeth. Everyone here was guilty and the punishment was death.
