“Uncuff me now, Cole. I swear to you that I will be going to the council with this blatant disregard for my rights. Brandon is healing and won’t have a mark on him. I just got over-excited and lost control of my temper. I misunderstood that they were mates and thought that she was trying to seduce Justin again, as he is mated to her sister. I am sorry that I lost control. It happens with us Alpha’s, we are very passionate about our families. You yourself have done it. Just let me and Cassandra go right now, Cole, and I will let it go as well. I won’t report you to the council. This is, provided that you let my daughter out of your cells too. I saw Cheryl attack Raven, so I know that you may need to punish her, but Reagan didn’t even get near Raven tonight. There is no need at all to punish her, she is innocent” I told them.
I kept my head slightly lowered, as for this to work out, Cole needs to think that I am submitting to him. Submitting to his authority, when I am not, I will just wait to get him back after I get my family’s freedom. I am going to deal with Justin too. That asshole started this whole thing. Yes, I tried to spin it for people to think that Raven was attempting to take Reagan’s mate, but I knew what he was doing. It is like he is deliberately trying to anger me, and he is. I will deal with him, but he knows where he stands now. He is refusing to be with Reagan, only on “paper” as he insists to me. I didn’t think I need to have sex in the contract, at the time. They had been having sex for months, I seriously didn’t think he was suddenly going to stop. I thought just having the 5-year clause in there was good enough. By that time they should have 3 or 4 pups, Goddess willing. I thought that alone would be enough to hold him to Reagan forever. He is smarter than I gave him credit for. He is clearly still drawn to Raven, even after the rejection, and that is going to be a problem.
“Graham, you can tell them right now. The council was here for this event. In fact, he was one of the eyewitnesses to what your daughter Reagan did. But don’t worry, even if you didn’t see it, or allegedly didn’t know about what it is that she did, it is ALL caught on video. You can watch it all play out at her trial” Cole tells me, and my eyes fly up to his. What in the hell has Reagan done this time? First, she lies to me that the bond between Justin and Raven was broken through rejection, and I find out about that lie as my very life was being threatened, and now this. Reagan has overstepped, I didn’t know what she has done, but I don’t know that I can get her out of it. The council is here, and it was recorded. Nothing that you say can go around the proof of what has happened. The whole council will see it, and they are not stupid. They will judge fairly, and with the law on it. What in the hell has Reagan done?
“I will of course want to see it. I am not aware of any wrongdoing by my daughter Reagan. I was not aware of anything happening tonight. Other than Cheryl starting a fight with Raven. That was it. Raven defended herself, it should be over with at this time. Raven bested Cheryl, so you should release her too. She received punishment for her actions tonight. I don’t really know Cheryl, she is the daughter of my brand-new beta, Silas Peters, and I was not made aware of any agenda that she may have had. They just arrived at my pack yesterday. I needed a Gamma, and I have known Silas for over 20 years. I had no reason to think that there would be a problem adding him and his family to the pack. How can I be held accountable for anything Cheryl does? I am sure this whole thing was just a big misunderstanding. I think if we calmly sit down, and discuss this, then we can get it all worked out. Raven is clearly OK, and with her mate now, so I don’t see what the problem is?” I told them. I am desperately trying to stay calm here. I am at their mercy right now.
“Oh, you will see it Graham, but it will be at the trial. Not tonight though, you can hang that up. But you can still find out what happened. When you get to the cells, you will be able to ask your precious, innocent, daughter what she has done this time. You should also encourage her to not lie about her actions. I already know that she will, she will not want to admit it, but you can tell her that rest assured that even if she never admits it, it is about to be a matter of record. She will rise to fame with everyone knowing what a vicious and dangerous daughter you raised Graham. It really shows what a difference a dad makes. My daughter doesn’t do things like that. She is loving and kind, and before you try to claim her as your daughter too, stop. You and Cassandra didn’t raise Raven or help her out despite the many times she needed it. She basically raised herself in a pack of abusive wolves. A pack that you encouraged to hurt her, with no punishment given for the abuse. So just realize, that you will be having your day in court too, Graham. I won’t let you get away with one little thing. You will answer for all your actions too, and Cassandra as well. She stood by, seeing it, allowing her own blood to be treated like that, and did nothing, all because she still wanted to go shopping on your dime. You two deserve each other, and I am so glad that the Goddess stopped me from marking her” Cole told the room, in a controlled voice. He was most dangerous when he was like this. He was trying to stay calm, but his wolf wanted to attack.
“We never hurt her” Cassandra called out, not realizing that Cole was hanging on by a thread. He could strike at any moment, and that would not be good for either of us.
“Dad, just take them to the cells. He is ruining my party, and I don’t want to see either of them. This was my fault for inviting them here. I wanted them to see that I was happy now when I should have realized that they would do anything to keep me from being happy. Please calm down dad, they will get what is coming to them, either by you, or from the Goddess, but it is coming” I heard Raven say in a soothing voice, I see her holding her father’s hands in hers and getting him to look at her, and not me anymore. She is not scared of him at all, and I see him start to relax. I am kicking myself for not just bringing her to him. I should have, the moment she was born. I was just so angry and wanted someone to blame for all of this.
Keeping her was the dumbest thing that I could have done, and if we get out of this with our lives, I will be grateful. I knew he was furious, but he clearly has been getting ready with the council, so he can move forward once they give him the go-ahead. War is coming, and I doubt Cassandra and I will survive it if we are there when it happens. I am going to have to notify the pack. They will have to get ready, we will have less than a month to get prepared, that is the usual time for the council to thoroughly review all the charges. I bet he went either a week or two ago, so they need to get up to speed in the next two weeks. This is going to be a very tight timeline. I will also have to get a shelter ready for the elderly and children too. We haven’t been attacked for a long time and have nothing to protect the weak with.
“Protect the weak, that is a joke, right, Graham? Wasn’t that Raven herself, and yet you ignored her bruises and injuries? All for this woman who only wanted to be with a rich mate. That was her requirement. You snatched her up like she was a trophy. Great idea Graham, all of your actions, and hers got us here. You knew Raven belonged to Cole, and yet you kept her to take your anger out on. You not laying your hands on her doesn’t excuse either of you. The council won’t be swayed by your innocent act. You have already been exposed, and you will have to bear the penalty for it, in fact, the whole pack will, and they deserve it too” my wolf, Duko, said to me in our link.
