A Gamma's Revenge by Ylyanah

3/3 Chapter 56 No One Liam My head is still spinning from the hidden compartments on the Alpha floor that I am not paying much attention to my surroundings and when I hear Alwin tellit is safe to discuss what we found on the Alpha floor I mention that what I am about to say has to remain a secret, but I hadn't noticed that Zalia was asleep because he was turned towards me. I look surprised when Benjamin took Zalia from Deimos' lap and walked out the living room, but I was stunned when I heard Alwin talking to Deimos.

I immediately understood why Benjamin had left the room and hearing Deimos talk I knew the King was in serious trouble. We all watch Deimos walk out of the living room to follow Benjamin to wherever he went and I wait until someone realizes what they just dil, but it looks as if no one understands why both men are angry. "I just hope that they figure it out before they have caused real damage." My Lycan says and I decide to keep my mouth shut for the tbeing.

All of them just sit there as they try to wrap their heads around what just happened, except for Leander. He seems to understand what just happened and I believe he understands a bit more than I do, but than he looks fromto the wall next to the kitchen. I follow his line of sight and I have to think of something very serious to not laugh my ass off, they forgot about the cameras Benjamin installed years ago and it wouldn't surpriseif he is watching us.

"We didn't find much of interest in the Alpha office, but the bookkeeping shows that the Pack is healthy. What surprisedwas to find out that Alpha Brad disapproved every idea Pack-members had to get more income, but that wasn't all that surprised me. This Pack has no businesses of their own, everything comes from investments and it is just enough to keep this Pack running." Alwin says. "Sila called one of our Tech-guys down here to open the safes for us, but he hasn't been lucky so far.” We talk about their books just a little bit longer before Alwin askswhat we found on the Alpha floor, I tell him what we had been doing when he linkedabout hidden safes and that we revisited every room we already checked. I tell him what Deimos figured out and what we found behind the bookshelves, that Warriors are placed inside the room to keep it safe. "Everything needs to be read and cataloged to be used. as evidence during the trial." I say.

A knock on the door stops Alwin from asking questions and Leander gets up to open the door, "Hello, Nyx. What brings you here?" He asks as he steps aside to let her in. "I am here to help Deimos and Benjamin move to Gaia's house." She says as she walks past him with a furious look in her eyes and I know it is safe to say that Benjamin told her what happened here. "Does Gaia have room for one more?" Leander asks as he follows her.

"I will stay here. See how long it takes before anyone comes to their senses." I say to Leander through the mind- link. "Tell Benjamin I didn't realize that Zalia was asleep. I could never ask him to lie to his Pup. Leander confirms that he heardand that he will relay my message to Benjamin. Everyone stops talking the moment we hear noises coming from down the hall and moments later I see Deimos walking by with a sleeping Zalia in his arms and the others follow close behind him.

I wonder how long it will take before anyone realizes what Alwin's words indicated, but I doubt it will be anytsoon and I hope it will not take until Axelle gets here for any of them to understand the mistake they made. Because if Axelle or I have to point out to them why Deimos and Leander chose to leave with Benjamin and Zalia, well use your own imagination and I think you can get very close to what will happen.

It takes a few moments after they have left before Sila addresses the elephant in the room, "What is Deimos angry about? He knows we never talk about sensitive subjects with someone that doesn't belong to the Rayol family." She says and for a moment I think she is kidding, but apparently I was wrong; she is dead serious.

1/3 Deimos The only thing that is keepingfrom going back to the Gamma floor is my Mate in my arms, I am fuming as I hear Alwin's words in my head again and I can't believe he actually said that. I wonder how Dad is managing to stay calm, he knows better than anyone how close Alwin cto losing his own Gamma and his Son's Gamma and now he wants to follow protocol. I guess I am not that important to his Son's leadership.

"Deimos, calm down. You will wake Zalia if you keep this up." Leander says. "I know you are angry and trustI would react the sway, but right now you have to keep in mind that you are holding your Mate." I give him a small smile in thanks, Leander knowsbetter than anyone else and I am grateful that he cwith me. He was also the one that stoppedfrom walking away the last tI disagreed with King Alwin.

Gaia is waiting for us on the front porch and she does look to happy but then again neither am I, but I need to keep in mind that I have my Mate in my arms. Leander is right, thinking about my Mate keepsand Goliath from blowing a gasket and once I am sitting in an armchair I bury my nose in her hair. That bad." Gaia says as she sits down in the chair next toand without looking at her I mumble, “Yeah, that bad." Leander takes our stuff up the stairs to the rooms we will be staying in.

It takes about an hour before Zalia wakes up and she looks surprised to find herself back in a house she called hfor two weeks, "Why are we here?" She asks no one in particular, she just wants an answer. I tell her that something happened after she fell asleep, but that I need to explain something before I can tell her what was said. "Protocol states that during an investigation we are not allowed to discuss it with anyone that doesn't belong to the Royal Family.

It is to make sure that no one can hide anyone or anything from justice, but also to make sure that no one gets accused before there is enough evidence against them. Seven years ago we were investigating saccusations that were made against an Alpha and his Beta, rumors around their Pack was that they wanted to allow their Daughters to get forcefully marked. We had gotten an invitation to one of their Full Moon Parties and we accepted because it was the easiest way in for us.

From tto tone of us would disappear for a while to search a certain part of the Pack-house, but we all made sure we were back before midnight and that is when Ammon and Eryx found their Mates. Asha was the Alpha's Daughter and Sila was the Beta's Daughter, I don't have to tell you how that ended for the four of them and if that had been it I doubt today would have rubbed us the wrong way. With us I meant my Dad, Leander and myself.

Their Fathers tried to object to the Mate-bond, but you can understand that Alwin and Axelle weren't to happy with those objections and we all moved to the Alpha office to discuss our next course of action. Ammon and Eryx almost lost their shit when Dad told them that Asha and Sila had to wait outside the Alpha office, but as I just explained Dad was just following protocol and Leander and I agreed with him but that didn't matter.

We all understood why they didn't Want to be away from their Mates, but without them being marked they weren't part of the Royal Family yet and for that reason Dad pointed out they couldn't sit in on that meeting. Alwin told my Dad to calm down, that they had every right to be there as it involved them and even though we understood that we were trained to uphold the Law and to follow protocol. If it hadn't been for Axelle Dad and I would have walked out that day.

Axelle explained that we were just following protocol, but that she also understood Ammon and Eryx and the only reason Dad and I didn't walk out that day is because Axelle said that if Leander or I would ever find our Mate she would be allowed to sit in on our meetings without being marked. By making this exception for all of us and not just Ammon because he is the Crown Prince, Axelle defused a very tense situation.

2/3 Chapter 56 No One Finished you You fell asleep in my arms pretty quickly, but with your back turned on Dad he didn't notice that weren't awake and when Alwin asked Dad to start talking Dad said that what was going to be said there. should stay a secret until we had more answers. As you can understand your Dad wasn't to happy with it, because he thought Dad was asking him to keep secrets from you and I can guarantee you that Dad would never ask that of your Dad. Problem however is that Alwin forgot about what happened, after your Dad took you with him to his room. Alwin made it clear that you do not belong to the Royal Family" and I hear everyone growl around me. “I asked him if he wantedto keep secrets from my Male and he responded by saying that we don't discuss what we uncovered with anyone that doesn't belong to the Royal Family." I explain to her and she has wrapped her arms around my neck as I was talking

"Deimos, thank you for choosingabove all else. Why isn't your Father here?" She asks and Leander tells her that he wants to now how long it will take before anyone Xealize Xealizes what they did. If they don't figure it out before Axelle gets here than we better stay as far away from the Pack-house as we can. Axelle never agreed with Alwin that he broke protocol for their Son and it took them quite a few days to getand Dad to accept the solution Axelle offered.

Alwin hates it when someone breaks the Law or protocol, but when it suites himself he sometimes bends. the rules and usually it concerns a small bending of the rules. I explain to her. "Dinner is ready.” Gaia says as she walks into the living room and she tells us that sof us can eat in the kitchen while the rest of us has to eat in the living room, "This house wasn't meant to hold this many people at once." She says as she walks back to the kitchen.

Zalia is quiet during dinner and I think.

she is trying to let everything settle in her mind, I know it is a lot for her to think about. Benjamin askswhat I will do if it takes to long before Alwin comes to his senses and for a moment I have to think about how to answer his question, "Dad and I accepted Axelle's solution on the condition that he would never break protocol again in such a way and that if he ever did we would resign our positions. to In the past seven years he has cclose with bending the rules a few times, but Axelle was always there put him back in his place and to force him to follow protocol. If he doesn't figure this out before Axelle shows up and apologizes to all of us, there is nothing Axelle can do or say to stopfrom resigning." I answer him. I know that Axelle will point out that he made a mistake and because of that he will apologize. but that will be too late. Axelle is the Queen to our Kingdom, Alwin only is King in nand he doesn't always agree with our Laws and protocols. He can't make a final decision without Axelle's approval and I know he doesn't like that very much, not that he will go against anything she says. Alwin learned fast that his Mate wasn't afraid to put him back in his place, that she would put him on the side quickly that no one in the Palace would side with him.
