Chapter 109
She slowly unwrapped her arms from her head and looked at her left arm in shock, tiny drops of blood began to gather down the length of her appendage, and she quickly began to pick the little imbedded transparent pieces out of her flesh.
“You are tr
are trying my last nerve, mate. One more outburst from you and you’ll be spending the remainder of our time here, in the pack’s dungeon.” She rolled her eyes at his words while continuing to pick the glass out of her wound, however I did notice the slight tense in her body.
“Our dungeon, your grace, is currently full.” Alpha Adrian stated meeting the kings eyes before subtly grasping hold of his mate Jaha’s hand. I only noticed the action myself because I was seated next to his opposite side.
“If that is the case then perhaps a public execution is overdue.” The newly appointed Gamma, Warren stated, we leamt about him in school the week before the kings arrival, he was new to the role and we were told to memorize everything we could about him. Luckily the old Gamma was promoted to beta, so most of the districts already knew of him and his background. Of course being the kings main envoy the entire world would know bits about them, but not anything truly personal. No one knew what had happened to the old beta, or why he was suddenly replaced, but no one questioned it, despite all our curiosities about it.
“Perhaps you are right, your grace, especially if you wish to use the dungeon, I assure you everything in our fine district is yours.” Adrian’s dad spoke sparing a single glance at the boy sat next to me.
The atmosphere was beginning to thickens, which Arya knew full well, it had been months since I’d moved into this house, and one thing that I was certain of since the move was that Adrian hated his father.
“I’ll take Queen Dylan to get cleaned up, and I assure you, your grace I will help her choose a beautiful gown for your announcement.” Arya spoke respectfully, trying to ease the growing tension between alpha and son. This was often the case. Being mated to Arya meant that I got an inside look into the lives of our district leaders, both current and future. Both Aryas father and the king were just as unhinged as each other. King Josh performed a simple nod of his head, as Arya stood and gestured over to Dylan, who begrudgingly stood up. “Jana, why don’t you come and help, it’ll be good to have two sets of opinions.”
I watched Dylan groan unintentionally as Jana jump up and slipped her arm into Aryas. They were going to be sister in laws soon, so my smile was permanent as I watched the girls walk away.
“So What is this announcement about, father?!” The current alpha shook his head at his sons words and shrugged.
“Oh? Well me and his grace have been rejiggering the educational curriculum, and we’re have been extremely lucky as the king has agreed to allow us to be the trial run” He deliberately didn’t give anything away to Arian as he spoke, tiptoeing and sliding around the question in order to doge it.
“We’re going to abolish it… the king spoke his voice slightly risen in question. “I am aware that the rebels in the west have grown in number dramatically. Due to this we have simply concluded that humans do not need education to be useful to us. All the knowledge provided to you, is simply unnecessary, so we have taken it away in its entirety.” He held a smug grin as he looked at everyone around the table still and chuckled. “A human cannot rebel if it’s never taught the skills needed to do so.”
Oh my god, I can’t believe his intentions are to take away our rights entirely.

it awkward as we waited for the girls to join us. I was stood next to both Adrian and the king who was barking orders at people as they past, king the time on his watch.
constantly on edge, I’d noticed that about him. Everything was a rush, he never gave Dylan any free time at all, no
wonder.
it my gaze first as she came down the stairs wearing a beautiful pink dress, she looked like a princess as she twirled into me excited to see my
to her appearance.
1’t say much at first, I was rendered too speechless by her beauty to have been able to utter a single sentence. She chuckled placing a kiss on my ich only made me want much more from her. That girl truly was my soulmate, the moon goddess truly made no mistakes when it came to love.
was almost the case.
hat wa
ouk, breathtaking.” She smiled and rested her head on my shoulder before looking at the stairs still smiling.
wasn’t far behind her and bounded up to Adrian who was waiting in a similar position as me. His suit rested nicely on his body, as he looked at his mate. He too was completely taken by his girlfriend. It was killing him not being able to mark her until she came of age, however they both knew they were devoted to one another, and would mark and mate with each other on Jana’s 17th birthday, it had basically already been organized.
itantly turned to Dylan who cautiously trudged down the stairs and remained still at the bottom of them. Keeping as much distance as she could the king. It was a stark contrast to when the girls came down so excited
dress Arya had chosen for her was turquoise in color and reached the floor, Id seen it on Arya once before, and thought she looked amazing in it, the color really did suit Dylan. However, although the color suited her so much the dress itself was poorly fitted, it was supposed to hug her hips we loosely flowing down, however it hung off my friend like a sack, her bony shoulders were highlighted by the thin straps and her collar bones were minent, she looked like a walking talking skeleton.
!king didn’t I waste a
any time in walking over to her, he roughly grabbed her shoulders and spun her round so her back was now facing us all. I gasped the sight of it, however no one else made much noise, I suppose the girls had already seen it while they were getting ready. Her scars really were essive, the backless dress showed off every mark made by the king and only confirmed her torture, I couldn’t help feel so sorry for her, there was solutely no way of getting rid of her scars, they were always going to be there, reminding her just how cruel King Josh really was.
xcellent choice, Miss Arya.” Arya must have received an order to give Dylan something that showed the permanent marks of her injuries, she would ver have chosen something like that otherwise, I’m sure of it, she really had changed. “Come, the press are growing impatient!” We waited quietly, nowing the king and, I suppose the queen, had to leave before any of us did.
le made our way to the square where everyone was gathered. Both humans and lycans over the age of 14 had been called to hear the king’s
nnouncement…
The press was gathered towards the middle, so they were centre to everyone who attended, they had both large cameras and microphones, not to nention little pocket recording devices.
‘Do you suppose Queen Dylan will be taking yet another punishment?” I heard one of the reporters say as he touched up his makeup while me and the 3 other wolves walked past, Dylan and King Josh would be arriving as soon as everyone has arrived, naturally they would be the last ones here. The guy he spoke to held a large camera and shrugged his shoulders at the reporter and spoke quietly back, although I could still hear him rather clearly, so i suppose it wasn’t all that quiet.
“Surely not, that poor human girl… there was a pause in the man’s speech as he locked eyes with Adrian, he squinted at him then nodded his head out of respect for his future position in the pack.
stage, The wolves and human mates of the pack were on the right hand side, of the stage waiting for us to arrive. My father in law stood closest to the with his Luna by his side, that is where we also walked, and took our place, with Adrian and his mate standing directly next to his father, then Arya and me stood next to them.
The humans however, were crammed into a small space on the left hand side that was being monitored by the warriors of the pack, I recognized a lot of them as they walked slowly watching every human, large whips rested in their grips as they waited for trouble to ensur
My eyes glided over the humans before they stopped on a familiar figure. My dad was stood watching me intently, he frowned and mouthed a simple word, it wasn’t hard to understand what he was asking with it though.
