We arrived at the council which was obvious by the giant metal fence surrounding a huge area of trees and a palace type building in the middle. A young woman around our age was standing next to a decorated, metal gate. She held a stack of paperwork in her arms and wore a tight black pantsuit and her blonde hair was in a high pony.
"Name?" She asked as we approached, her eyes unmoving from the paper in her hand
"Conor Davis" Conor stated, proudly.
"And you?" She asked, tipping a pen toward me
"Alexis Moore" I said
"I'm Kara. Please, come through" she announced and the gates opened behind her. She had striking blue eyes that seemed to connect with Conor as we made our way though the gate.
"I'm told you have a meeting with the council? Usually rouges aren't allowed near the fence, let alone inside the building" she mused as she strode forward up the stone path
"It's a special occasion" Conor said
"I found that quite obvious" she added in a hushed tone.
We walked along the path until reaching a large set of stairs that lead to the front doors which were coated in spots of gold and brass. Two men in black suits stood either side of the door who opened it gracefully by the golden handles to allow us entry.
Kara nodded quickly and we entered. The room was huge with twin staircases curling around to the second floor and golden railings running all the way up. White marbled floors sparkled with the reflection of what was most likely a diamond chandelier that hung in the middle of the room. People wondered in and out of doors on both sides of the room while we headed between the stairs to another large double door on the back wall.
"We are just on time" Kara smiled at us before opening the doors and leading us inside.
The room again was large and beautifully decorated though inside here was a large table with multiple older men and women mingled around. The hushed conversations they had been having immediately stopped when we entered. Multiple grey eyes scanning us.
"Conor and Alexis" Kara bowed softly before retreating to wait at the door.
"Welcome" a tall, dark haired man said in a gruff voice.
"I'm sure you're both quite nervous, but please, make yourselves comfortable" he added with a smile as the council began taking seats, leaving the two nearest the door free. Conor and I sat down quietly.
"Now, how can we help you?" He asked gently
Conor looked at me, his face whiter than usual against his black hair that was becoming sweaty.
"Thank you for taking the time to see us. I know that us being rogues may make this difficult to understand but I come from the Storm Forest pack and Conor here is from the Blood Wood pack" I started, wiping my sweaty palms on my pants.
"Yes, we heard about your eviction. You forced your mate to transition" the council member stated
"Please, Sir-" I started
"Call me Vidar" he smiled
"Vidar, sorry. My mate had been attacked, I didn't have the time to get the approval" I pleaded
"You didn't need the approval. They are only necessary in the event that one controls a life" he said
"Surly you aren't here for that, though, are you?" He asked with a friendly smile
"No, sir. Vidar" I said quietly
"My father and his brother share the alpha title in the Blood Wood pack" Conor blurted and all eyes turned to face him.
"They share the title?" A councilwoman asked
"Yes. My Uncle, he left many years ago to be with his mate but recently murdered her as she was human and returned to the pack" he informed them
"He murdered his own mate?" Another member asked
"Ripped her heart out then tried to kill me as a way to get at his son" I added
"Why you?" The woman asked
"His son is my mate"
The council began murmuring to each other while continuing to watch us before Vidar raised a hand and they silenced
"What is his name? Your mate" he asked
"Luka. Luka Stone"
"Son of Dominic and Nicole, born some 18 years ago. Dominic is a pure wolf while Nicole was human. As far as we know she never knew he was a werewolf" the woman to his left said
"Thank you Siv" he smiled at her and she nodded back.
"The Alpha's plan to attack you all. They want to take over as many packs as possible then become the first pack to eliminate the High Council" Conor told them
"They cannot" Vidar said simply
"Wolves cannot enter. And mere men cannot overpower the elders" he added with a chuckle
"They don't know that. They have been turning on any pack members that won't follow them into battle and attacking the surrounding packs. They already took out the Wood Cliff pack" Conor said
"That was the Wolf Fang pack" Vidar corrected
"No. I was part of the attack. There were no other packs there" Conor countered
Vidar crossed his arms and leant back for a moment before leaning in to the woman next to him and mumbling something. She quickly got up and hurried over to a door off to the side and disappeared behind it.
"So, you have come to warn us of an attack?" Vidar questioned a few moments later
"Yes" Conor answered
"Well, thank you. But I'm sure we will be fine" he smiled as he stood up
"With all due respect sir, these two Alpha's are so much stronger together. I've never seen anything like them" Conor started
"So how are you two here, able to tell me all of this?" Vidar asked with a smirk
"Luka overpowered his father" I said
"You're telling me, and correct me if I'm wrong, but you're saying that we, the high council, made of only the best alpha's of all time, are in danger of two wolves that were overpowered by a freshly turned boy?" He asked before breaking out in a laugh
"You're both excused" he waved his hand and everyone got up, still laughing quietly and returned to there conversations.
"Come with me, please" Kara said quietly behind us
"Did we really just get laughed out?" Conor asked as we left the room through a small side door and into a long corridor
"I think so. This was a waste of time. I should have stayed with Luka" I sighed, trudging along behind Kara
"That's enough. You two have no idea what is going on" Kara urged in a hushed tone
"Vidar is worried" she said quietly as she pulled us aside into a much more average sized room
"I don't think so. He was laughing" Conor said with a huff
"He's putting it on. I've never seen him like that. He sent Siv out. He doesn't do that" she whispered.
"Oh, you're here" she said, adjusting herself as two women walked in behind us.
"Dominic is part of two packs. That's where they are getting their strength. They aren't part of the same pack. They are just.." Siv started
"Allied?" Conor questioned
"Yes. And as for Luka" she continued
"We need to meet with him" the other woman finished
"Meet with him? Why?" I asked
"You never turned him" she replied
