“Why do you care Alpha Wyatt?” he asked me with disgust.
“Well, I don’t remember seeing her last year, and she didn’t seem to know who I was so that only means that she’s new,”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he quickly replied in a defensive tone.
“You know as well I as do that any new pack members have to be registered with the council,” I said to him and his eyes immediately widened.
“This is true,” Elder Jonah said and looked at Ash. “Though I have no recollection of Halfmoon ever registering any new pack members, within the last year, whatsoever,”
“That…That…That was my father’s responsibility, but after he was arrested, I have not delegated that task anyone,”
“Alpha Ash, Eric was arrested months ago. Are you saying that you have new pack members that have not been registered within the last few months?”
“Uh…I mean…….No, I have not,” he stuttered. Elder Jonah lifted his brow.
“Well, I happened to meet the Omega from yesterday, Elder Jonah, perhaps we can call her in here to get to the bottom of this?” I suggested to him and he nodded. “Wait! You can’t!” Ash shouted.
“And why pray tell not?” Jonah asked. “Are you defying an order from an Elder?” he growled.
“No, it’s just that…”
“If you have nothing to hide, then bringing in the Omega to clear up her story shouldn’t be an issue,” I say to him. His eyes are black with rage. That’s right, get angry, because I’m about to ruin your entire life.
“Alpha Wyatt, will you please fetch the Omega?” Jonah asked and I nodded.
“Kendrick, go fetch her,”
“Yes, Alpha,” he stood up and left the conference room. I could feel all eyes on me, and one pair, in particular, was burning a hole into my head. A few minutes later, Kendrick, or in this case, William came back with Kelsey and two of her friends. “Beta Kendrick, who are the other two?” Richard asked.
“Well, when I went to fetch the Omega, her friends were with her and she asked if they could come to,”
“I see,” Richard replied. I looked at Ash and his face was turning white.
“Young lady, my name is Jonah, and I am an Elder,”
“Hello, my name is Kelsey, and these are my friends, Brent and Lisa,”
“Kelsey, would you mind answering a few questions for me?” Jonah asked.
“I forbid you from answering any questions!” Ash shouted.
“I forbid you from forbidding her!” Jonah shouted at him. “Who are you to stop an Elder!?” he growled making Ash cower. “My apologies, Kelsey, will you please have a seat?”
“Yes, sir,” she said as she and the others sat down at the table. “What would you like to know?”
“First of all, where were you born?”
“I was born in Houston, Texas,” her answer immediately gained everyone’s attention.
“Why are you here at Halfmoon?”
“Uhhh… Halfmoon?” she gave a quizzical look and that alone made all of the Alphas shift their gaze to her.
“Halfmoon is the name of this pack,” Jonah said to her.
“Oh, I…Um…I came here about eight months ago. Brent was already here, and Lisa came a few months later,”
“I see,” Jonah replied and looked at Richard. Both of them had a look of suspicion on their faces.
“Kelsey, my name is Richard, do you remember me? I was here last year,”
“I’m sorry, but I’ve never seen you, sir,” she replied. Good, that means it proves she came after the last Alpha meeting, and that she was never registered with the council as a new pack member. That’s strike one for Ash. “Young lady, how old are you?” Jonah asked.
“19,”
“And have you met your mate yet?”
“My what?” she gave a look of confusion. Unfortunately, she really didn’t know anything about mates, yet. “I’m sorry, but I’m still new to this whole being a werewolf thing,” she said while waving her hands. “We all are,” she continued pointing to Brent and Lisa who just nodded in agreement. I looked at Ash and saw his face turn even whiter. Kelsey and her friends just gave away that they’re newborns.
“How new?” Jonah asked, his eyes completely black.
“Ummm… A month?” Kelsey replied fear laced in her voice.
“Kelsey, I’m going to ask you this once, and only once… How did you get here to Halfmoon?” Jonah asked gritting his teeth. He already knew the answer, but he needed to hear it from her. I watched as Kelsey moved her gaze to Ash and the glint of pride in her eyes to let him know that she was not afraid of him.
“I was kidnapped, along with countless others, some of which left and never returned,” with her response came with an uproar from the other Alphas and all of the elders in the room.
“ASHFORD PATTERSON!! YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO OUR KIND!!” Jonah roared shaking the entire room.
“NO! SHE’S LYING! THEY’RE ALL LYING!!”
“WE’RE NOT LYING!!” Lisa shouted. “You and your b***h of sister kidnapped us!! We watched as you turned all of us against our will, almost all of us died because of it!”
