Chapter 62: Wait! Werewolves exist
ALPHA JASON STONE.
Amber was already at the hospital when I got there. I was happy to see she was safe. I figured that Becky had probably called her after the attack, which explained why she had left my house without saying anything. The problem is I don’t know how much Becky has told her. Does she know that my dad attacked them? More importantly, does she know that I sent him?
I had to find a way to make her believe that I had nothing to do with it. I had already made moves to cover my ass on a bigger scale. I had already phoned the council and told them about Peter killing Bradley. I wanted to make sure that I would be given permission to execute the whole family without the need for an investigation, so I had said that they had tried to flee Lakeside after being caught stealing. I said that when my dad and Bradley tried to stop them, they attacked, killing Bradley and injuring my dad. The council had told me that they would be in touch shortly with their decision.
I asked her if we could talk later, and she nodded. I felt a little relieved. Surely she wouldn’t have agreed to it if she thought that I had anything to do with it. If I had to, I would lay all the blame on my father. After all he was the one that fucked up. If he’d done the job properly Peter wouldn’t be in the hospital right now. The whole family would be laying dead on the ground. I didn’t understand what had gone wrong, how had a fucking omega killed one of my warriors and taken on my dad and survived. It just didn’t make sense.
It didn’t help that Becky was staring daggers at me. The nerve of the bitch. Who the fuck was she to be lookung at me like that. A nurse led me to my dad’s room and I sat down next to his bed. Doctor Hill filled me in on his condition. He would make a full recovery it would just take a little longer than normal due to Clyde not being at full strength. They had given him something to make him sleep and wanted to keep him in overnight. I agreed and thanked her. I asked about Peter, but she told me that she hadn’t seen him yet. I told her that I wanted to be kept informed of his condition too.
I was going to go looking for Amber when I left dad, but I got a mindlink from Dean. He said that I needed to go home immediately. Sam had contacted him when he couldn’t reach me. I had been blocking all contact while I was at the hospital. Apparently, we had visitors. A council member had just arrived in town and was making his way to my house. I hadn’t long contacted them. How could they be here already? Shit! The last thing that I wanted was for them to come out and speak to Peter or Ellie. This wasn’t good.
DEAN STONE.
I am supposed to be the beta around here, yet I have no fucking idea what the hell is going on. My dad is in the hospital and no one is telling me what happened. The council has turned up and I have no idea why. I have to be honest I hated being my brothers Beta. He has very different ideas about pack life to me. All I can think is what the fuck had that prick done now and is it something that will effect the whole pack? I heard voices outside and opened the door as it knocked. I showed our guests through to the sitting room and told them that Jason was on his way. Seeing who the other visitor was just left me even more confused and worried. I offered drinks which were refused and mindlinked Jason again telling him to hurry up and asking what the fuck he’d done. He didn’t respond but came through the door not long after looking hot and bothered. He went pale when he saw who was sitting on the sofa.
ALPHA JASON STONE.
It felt like my heart stopped beating for a split second when I walked into that room. The first of the men rose from the sofa and introduced himself. “I am Werewolf Council member Stuart Perry. I am here due to a rather serious accusation that we have received. I believe you know Beta Edwards.” He gestured at the second man. What the fuck was the Beta of Moon River doing on my sofa? I didn’t understand. What did my accusation against Peter have to do with Moon River? I nodded and welcomed them to Lakeside. He continued “We have been informed that Alpha Baxter’s son has gone missing, and an accusation has been made against you regarding his disappearance.” I looked shocked, although my shock was more to do with how they could possibly know.
I obviously denied it, saying that I was outraged that I was being accused of this. It wasn’t my fault if Alpha Baxter didn’t know where his idiot son was. I demanded to know who was making such an accusation. Dean was staring at me. He looked pissed off. Council member Perry continued “Enough, I will give you whatever information I deem pertinent. However, right now, I would like to see your dungeon.” SHIT,SHIT,SHIT!!!!!!!! How the fuck was I going to get out of this????
