Jaylen "Yeah, Skylar will be here on time to tell that idiot to fuck off. I also think that Beck and Moura have something up their sleeve. They don't always tell me what's on their mind, and sometimes it turns out that they were mistaken. But in the end, they always tell me what has been on their mind. If it is important to this case, they will let us know. And if for some reason they don't find the answer they were hoping for, they will tell us once this is over," Morgan says as she looks up at me. Elder Larson approaches us and tells us that the King wants us inside the meeting room. Looks like we will get an answer soon. Elder Larson guides us into the meeting room, and when I see the Alpha of Red Forest Pack, Midnight becomes murderous. The fucking Idiot has a smirk on his face as if he knows something that I don't, and I'm real close to letting go of my control over Midnight. Midnight might have been right about me not being able to sense my Mate because I couldn't let go of the past, but there's no way in hell I will give her up. I will fight for her if I have to because I finally realize that Morgan is the kind of female I would like to spend the rest of my life with. The Alpha walks towards Morgan and says, "Hello, Sweetheart. We meet again. I'm sorry I didn't claim you on the day we met, but I couldn't risk it in front of Silver Dawn Pack." I can hear Amra growl the moment he steps too close, and it makes the Alpha take a step back. I have to stifle a smile as he looks rather uncomfortable towards Morgan. Looks like Amra doesn't care much for the Idiot, and I doubt there are many females that would be jumping up and down if this Idiot turned out to be their Mate. "Commander, I am trying to apologize here for what I put you through. I understand your Wolf isn't too happy with me for ignoring her the first time we met," The Alpha says. Midnight is laughing his ass off in my head, and I wonder what the hell is going on. That is until I let the Alpha's words run through my mind again. If the Alpha was Morgan's Mate, he would have known that she is a Lycan and not a Wolf. That sounds like strike one to me, and I wonder what else he will come up with. The Alpha doesn't seem to realize the mistake he made, but the look on King Damon's face tells me that he did notice it and that he understands that the Alpha was lying to him. If there's one thing King Damon hates, it is when people lie to him to gain control or power. And because he knows what Morgan is capable of, it is clear to King Damon that the Alpha only claims her as his Mate because she is a special Lycan. Not that the Alpha seems to be aware of the fact that Morgan is a Lycan. I think it is clear to everyone in this room that he isn't her Mate and that he was trying to claim a Lycan that isn't his to claim. I wonder how long King Damon will allow him to keep talking nonsense. Maybe he should allow him to dig an even deeper grave for himself, and I am more than willing to shove him into it. "Commander, will you please explain to King Damon that I never meant to hurt you or your Wolf? You must understand what could have happened if I had claimed you in front of the Alpha of Silver Dawn Pack, and I don't think I would have been able to live with myself if I had put you at risk by claiming you that day," The Alpha says as he looks at Morgan. I wonder how long it will take him before he realizes the mistake he made, and something tells me that it won't be until he has dug himself a really deep grave. All King Damon has done so far is listen to what the Alpha had to say, but he hasn't made an attempt to correct the Alpha on his mistakes, nor has one of the Elders tried to point out that his Mate isn't a Wolf but a Lycan. Casimir seems to have finally settled down, and he is sitting in the seat next to his Father. He seems a lot calmer knowing that this Alpha is full of bullshit. Just as the Alpha is about to say another word, we all hear a knock on the door, and Elder Larson opens it to reveal Skylar with Beck and Moura right behind her. "Your Majesty, I apologize for interrupting this meeting," Skylar says as she walks into the meeting room. "When we went to Red Forest Pack to resolve an issue that had been going on for two years, there wasn't a Full Moon. I am not sure why the Alpha says he recognized Commander Morgan as his Mate. It would be impossible for him to know that she is his Mate as there was no Full Moon to confirm it." Beck is the next one to step forward. "Your Majesty, I think I understand why the Alpha claims Commander Morgan as his Mate. His Father was Nigel's Uncle, and I think it is safe to say that his Father knew about the Blue River Bloodline. There's no need for the Alpha to confirm or deny this because I have the evidence right here in my hand, and it comes straight from the Elders' Archives," Beck says as he hands the file to King Damon."Well, Alpha, it seems there are two things contradicting your claim. I think it is safe to say that you heard about what happened to Nigel and his Father, and knowing that we met one another before, you decided to take a chance. But you hadn't counted on a few things. My unit will always find any answer they need to find to keep me out of trouble, and next to that, if—and that is a huge if—I had been your Mate, you would have known I wasn't a Wolf but a Lycan," Morgan says to him, just before she punches his lights out.
