Zalia lets me listen 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 disturbed, 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 would probably be apologizing for the next two weeks. Luna Hester seems to calm down a bit after that, and both of them drink their coffee while Zalia tells me that Luna Hester seems nervous to her.

“She doesn’t have anything with her, but I don’t want to turn my back on her for a second. How much longer before they get here?” Zalia asks me.

I look at my watch and see that they can be here any minute. I ask Leander to link Eryx while I tell Zalia that they are almost here. Leander gives me two thumbs up, and I know that they are at the gate.

“Dad just linked me that 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 she tells Luna Hester about the arrival of the King.

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. As we walk out, Zalia exits her room. She smiles at me before she walks into my arms, and I guide her out of the door.

Leander 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 welcome the King.

“Benjamin, where is Brad?” Luna Hester whisper–yells as King Alwin steps out of his SUV. I chuckle when Eryx falls on his ass when Sila pushes him because she wants to get out of the SUV. Lur Hester’s face pales when she sees me standing behind her.

“Any idea 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 behind me, and I know she will be in for the shock of her life.

Luna Hester seems unable to answer her question, and I doubt Alwin wants me to 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,” I reply.

“Whether anyone else in this Pack will be joining them or not, it depends on what we uncover in the next few days. From this day until King Alwin decides otherwise, Moon Stone Pack belongs to the Royal Family. No one is allowed in or out without permission from King Alwin,” I continue, not only to answer Elinor’s question but also to answer any questions the Pack–members might have.

I watch as Dad passes me into 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.

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 me that you were here before the King arrived?” Elinor asks as she looks at

1. 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 have 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 with guards.

na floor, and I stay outside with Leander on the front porch while Zalia takes Sila and Asha up to the C Eryx follows them because he will be removing the bugs from their floor. He will also check the Beta and Alpha floors for bugs because I doubt Brad or Donovan placed them, and something tells me that 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 of telling her what happened.

“What trial are you talking about?” Luna Hester asks when Elinor 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’s 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 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. 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, King Alwin has taken over the leadership of Moon Stone Pack, so even if he were 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.

Luna 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, and something tells me I will get an answer to that question soon.

“Deimos, I found bugs on all top floors and in the same rooms as on the Gamma floor. He targeted the rooms you would assume 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 behind me, and 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 at me, and she gives me a very unpleasant feeling.

We walk up the stairs as fast as we can, and I don’t care if 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 Leander closes the door behind us.

“Which female chased the three of you up the stairs?” Benjamin 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 lap and 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 finally settles in the back of my mind. No one says a word when Eryx places the bugs he found on the coffee table.
