Chapter 94
FREDA WHITLOCK
“Hell no” I roared recovering from my shock. “Cisco isn’t going anywhere. He’s supposed to be in school and that’s where he’ll be”. I stated in a firm tone and Kalden just shook his head in disapproval.
“Cisco is at the center of it all, it is essential he is there as he was the one Safiya accused first”, Kaiden stated and I shook my head in disagreement.
“I’m not taking my son to that place after what happened the last time. We were insulted”.
“Yeah, and what right do you think you have to order us around when all this was your fault from the very beginning. If only your had controlled your wife properly then wouldn’t have been need for all this”. Lyra stated in a loud tone.
“Lyra it’s enough” I butt in when I noticed the way Kalden. clenched his jaw. I didn’t want Lyra to experience Kaiden’s wrath. He was still an Alpha.
“You guys are coming with me and you are bringing Cisco along” Kaiden stated firmly and I knew he wasn’t going to budge unless I gave in to his demand, what a stubborn man!
“Fine, but you better keep your word, Kaiden” I warned in a stern. voice and I drew Cisto away from him.
“We can go in my car” he offered and I shook my head. “I have
my own car, thank you” I took Cisco back to the car along with Lyra and headed for the pack conoll with Kaiden leading the way.
The ride in the car was silent as each of us were occupied by our own thoughts, ‘Would everything turn out alright? What if t was setting a trap for my own self? These thoughts buzzed through my mind.
Kaiden bladed his horn in front of us alerting us that we had arrived at the pack council. I stopped the car and came down and walked to the pack council.
As we walked along I could feel the stares of people, I could taste their disapproval of me in the air. “Breathe in, breathe out” Freda my wolf stated and I did as told and I felt much better.
“Just say the word and we’ll transform and eat everyone who gives you the disapproving eye” she growled. “That’s not necessary” I replied as I reined her in and laughed out earning stares from Lyra and Kaiden.
Lyra raised her eyebrow in question and I just shrugged as I muttered ‘wolf’ and she nodded in understanding and we continued on.
Soon we were right in front of the council of elders and I exchanged glances with Kalden. “So what now Mr know it all?” I mocked in a low tone.
And he just shook his head and turned to the council of elders. Safiya was standing at a corner with a sullen expression on her face.
She didn’t look a bit repentful at all and that convinced me that

this was all Kalden’s idea, I knew Safiya would never willingly apologize. He better make this meeting worth it or unless I would do it myself. Enough of the all the crazy mind games.
I and Safiya stared daggers at each other,challenging each other. to look away first but Kaiden’s booming voice drew us away. from our silent war as we turned to listen to what he had to say.
“Good morning elders of the council. I have called this urgent meeting with you all to address an issue that has been going on for some time”. He stated as he paused and took a deep breath.
“What issue is that Alpha?” One of the elders asked as he
glanced from me to Safiya. “What issue has caused you to bring your wife and a former offender to the council Alpha?”he asked curiously.
“Yes Elder, the reason I am here today is to clarify a
misunderstanding that has been caused by the council and my unfair judgement”.
“I hope we can recall that few weeks ago, Freda and her son were brought to the council and accused for causing an incident towards my daughter Harper”. Kaiden stated and the elders nodded.
“Yes, that’s correct, so why is she here again, did she commit another offence?” One of the elders asked as they glanced at me warily and I was almost tempted to knock them off their seats. Old men!
“No, in fact I have come to clarify that neither Freda nor her son Cisco were responsible for that incident. In fact Cisco had tried to save Harper from falling down the stairs but failed hence his own minor injury”.

“But my wife here, Safiya, wrongly accused Freda and made her kneel down on her son’s behalf for a crime they didn’t commit”.
“So the reason why I have assembled us here is that my wife is willing to apologize for her wrong doings. Safiya, please step forward and apologize genuinely to Freda”. Kaiden stated in his. alpha tone and the room erupted in murmurs.
The elders murmured amist themselves and Kaiden growled in an intimidating Alpha way and everyone became still in a pin drop silence. “Safiya” he called more firmly this time when she didn’t budge and she grudgingly stepped forward.
“Apologize” he growled and Safiya c**d her chin and spoke through gritted teeth. “I’m sorry Freda for accusing you for trying to kill my daughter and building a barrier between my husband and I”.
“I’m sorry for trying to stop you from seducing my husband”. She yelled as tears rushed down her eyes.
“Safiya! Watch yourself”Kaiden growled and I just scoffed. Safiya would never change, so much for coming here for an apology.
“Alpha” one of the elders warned in a low tone. “We understand that your wife might have been wrong in her behavior but that shouldn’t cause you to disrespect your luna in public because of this woman”. He stated and the rest of the elders grunted in approval.
“Well that’s because this ‘woman you speak so lowly of is my mate. She was my mate in the past,and she is still my mate presently as I still feel the mate bond between us. Kaiden said in a loud booming voice that the sound of his confession
echoed through the whole space
My heart **d a bit as I glanced at Kaiden but he didn’t se to regret his confession as he still stood proud and tall like a true Alpha.
Safiya ** backwards in shock as she didn’t expect Kaiden to declare that openly and I smirked. ‘Serves you right honey. The meeting had just begun!
