The Pack: Rule Number 1 - No Mates

Chapter Ninety-One

DOMONIC

The twelve councilmen around the rom seemed to tense at my admonition. Michaels cocky smile wavers and Rafael begins to pant. Chuckling at the fear that fairly coats the air around them, I stand. "Who are the wolves you've brought with you?" Michael clear his throat. They are pack and fan their Alpha."

My father studies him carefully before his eyes turn toward me and be asks Michael, low did you come to be Alpha?"

Michael glowers at me. I was elected when Alpha Benjamin disappeared two months go."

"Elected?" I cackle, meeting Hoda's eyes in amusement. A mayor is elected. To be an Alpha you must either be born one, or defeat

Michurel smeers at ine e, despite that Rafael is looking more and more nervous. There was no Alpha left to defeat."

"What happened to his Beta? Lask smoothly, rubbing my chin as I stare at the piece of shit from across the table.

Dead," Michael says. "We found him at the edge of the woods, near the train station Timber."

1 watch him carefully. From the way he taps his foot to his constant need to adjust hit tie. He isn't used to wearing a suit, that much is obvious. He's even less used to it than I am

"Two months ago? Paul's father, Chase, questions ambiguously.

"I need to speak with councilman Adam for a moment, I say, standing up and gesturing for my dad to follow me out into the lobby for a moment. "We'll only be a minute.

Exiting the room as slowly as I can with my dad behind me, Thins where is your pause-"my office?"

I follow him down the hall on the left, ignoring the flirtatious stares I'm getting from the primarily female staff in this place as I do. Each and every female I pass seems to stop and stare at me with hearts in their eyes. But they are nothing compared to Draves and I don't so much as smile. Once we're in the office I take a cool lew seconds to admire the interior. Its modern. The desk is black glass, as are the end tables between each of the four armchairs - everything else is sleek back leather unless you count the few tribal ceramics strewn along the walls. Nice enough, I guess.

""What is it, son?"

I turn my attention to him. "How long has Gabriel been visiting that joke of a pack?"

"Twice a month for three months," he says.

his eyes steady on

on mine

I nod. "Enough time for him to coince a bunch of malnourished wolves to turn on their Alpha and Bets is what I'm guessing. I groan.

My dad chuckles, "Come now, do you really think Cabriel is strong enough to defeat an Alpha wolf?"

I shake my head, "No, I don't. But I do think

ik he's evil enough to manipulate one into stepping into danger. The only way to know for sure would be for me to go down to California and see for myself"

My father has the nerve

the nerve to look impressed. "You're right."""

"How many are we?" I ask knowing that the gestion is long overdue.

"A little more than three hundred, using the females and the children, my father and I ga. "Fifty Gammas - Gabriel being one of them."

Seriously?" I stort, I want to laugh. "A ridiculous upgrade for Gabe and that's a huge number for a pack, dad."

"Not in comparison to the thousands of humans outside these walls - it isn't."
