“What? Did Nina not tell you that these applications were routed straight to the king’s email?”
Thinius turned to look at Nina, and I watched her back up a step. “No, no, she didn’t. But it doesn’t matter. All
council.” He tried to rally and stepped closer. “The council has been already checking to see who is appropriate for the position.”
applications need to go through the
I nodded. “I figured you might say that.” I pulled out my phone and scrolled back to the press release from Rowan. “And I quote ‘Any single and unmated female may apply. Regardless of age or rank. All applications will be considered.‘ End quote.” I clicked my phone off and turned to look at Thinius. “But according to some ladies here, they attempted to apply through the council and they application was denied before even being reviewed.” I felt my eyes shift as Nix grew impatient. “Was that you? Or did another council member decide to go against the words of the King again?” 1
He sputtered at that, and I watched his fang slam down. “Whop the fuck do you think you are? You’re just a fucking alpha wolf from the legs of a whore. Your father is lucky to be fucking dead-”
I straightened my shoulders and dropped my shifted hands. Fur rippled up from my clawed hands and my own fangs slammed down into my lip, slicing it as it went. “I dare you to fucking finish that sentence.” My voice was layered. I could hear all three of our voices in my threat. Thinius smirked with Nadine, but Nina was smarter, taking a slow step back. Thinius opened his mouth, but Toya walked up next to me with her phone out.
“What are you doing?” Nadine pointed to her, but she just chuckled.
“Who? Me?” she pointed to herself as she used the other hand to keep the phone straight. “Oh, I’ve just been recording this.”
“Why?” Nadine’s face scrunched up in confusion, but Nina paled.
Toya laughed again. “Because I want to have some proof that it was you three idiots that started all of this when the king comes here to investigate because Amy killed a council member and his two stupid nieces.”
Nina took another step back as I took a step forward. But Thinius thought he had the upper hand. “Killing a council member is a killable offence.”
I nodded. “Sure is. If there is no provocation. But if someone challenged an alpha, whether by word, physical attack, or provocation, any and all attacks are justified if the alpha is stronger and not if full control of their wolves. It’s a little small subsection in the rule book that the council put together to protect little vindication alphas who were taking out their anger on their packs.” I smiled, and I watched the truth hit them all in the chest. I turned to Toya, and she laughed, pointing at her mouth.
“You have a little blood there, Aim.” She moved the camera to catch my face. “It’s dripping down your chin and all over your teeth. You did a number on your lip when your fangs dropped.”
I nodded as I turned back to the three of them. “Now…where were you?” I paused and took another step. “You were telling me that my mother was a whore and my father was lucky to be fucking dead, is that right?”
Nadine, obviously the stupider sister, smirked. “You won’t do anything. The rule states the alpha has to be stronger. You are what, eighteen?”
“What day is it?” I turned back to the table.
“It’s May ninth.” Wendy offered.
I nodded as I turned back. “I’m nineteen. Today is my birthday.” I smiled bigger. I heard the girls behind me all gasp, but I was focused on the three in front of me. Thinius recovered enough to smirk. He obviously assumed that a young female alpha would not be stronger than him. But Nina grabbed his hand.

“She’s strong.” I heard her whisper.
“That I am.” I felt my smile grow predatory. “Now, who wants to finish that train of thought?” I turned to Nina. ” Nina? Want to give it a shot? I mean, I almost killed you the last time you wanted to bring my father into our conversation. I wouldn’t mind finishing the job to really hammer the fact home for your sister and uncle.” I felt more fur sprout down my body. Nix was pushing against the wall now,
Give them to me, Amy. Please. Her fangs glinted in the light of my mind and I knew she would snap their necks.
“No.” Nina raised her hands. “ I made a mistake. I’m sorry.
I walked closer. “I’m really tired of you thinking that your family and who you are connected to is going to save you from me. I really think I need to teach you a lesson.” My hand darted out and I crushed her hand that she had raised up to warn me off.
