We are in King Alwin’s office when he gets a message with the request to call Alpha Brad and each of us is sitting on the edge of our seats. Once I hear Zalia say that he has an email I am on my feet in a split second and I nod my head when I see it, <i>“</i><i>It </i><i>is </i><i>an </i><i>audio </i><i>file </i><i>from </i><i>Zalia</i><i>.</i>” I tell them through the mind–link and King Alwin mutes the call on our end.
“<i>Dad </i><i>hasn’t </i><i>said </i><i>it </i><i>in </i><i>those </i><i>exact </i><i>words</i><i>, </i><i>but </i>it <i>was </i><i>clear </i><i>he </i><i>hoped </i><i>to </i><i>retire </i><i>in </i><i>a </i><i>few </i><i>years</i>. <i>I </i><i>doubt </i><i>Elinor </i><i>and </i>Kali will <i>be </i><i>able </i><i>to </i><i>learn </i><i>everything </i><i>they </i><i>need </i><i>to </i>know <i>that </i><i>fast </i><i>and </i><i>their </i><i>Gamma </i><i>is </i><ipletely </i><i>inexperienced</i>. <i>I </i><i>need </i><i>you </i>to <i>tell </i><i>my </i><i>Father </i><i>that </i>it <i>would </i><i>be </i><i>better </i><i>if </i><i>he </i><i>didn’t </i><i>hand </i><i>over </i><i>the </i><i>Pack </i>to <i>Elinor </i><i>and </i><i>Kali</i><i>, </i>I know <i>he </i><i>will </i><i>listen </i><i>to </i><i>you</i><i>. </i>
<i>He </i><i>has </i><i>always </i><i>been </i><i>in </i><i>your </i><i>corner</i><i>, </i><i>he </i><i>has </i><i>never </i><i>had </i><i>doubts </i><i>about </i>putting <i>a </i><i>female </i><i>in </i><i>the </i><i>Gamma </i>position<i>.</i>” We hear Donovan say and I know what this means, but we need to hear him say it out loud.
<i>“</i><i>You </i><i>and </i><i>Gibson </i><i>just </i><i>don’t </i><i>agree </i>with him<i>, </i><i>do </i>you?” We hear Zalia’s response and Goliath roars loudly when we hear Donovan respond, “<i>We </i><i>totally </i><i>disagree </i><i>with </i><i>him </i><i>on </i><i>that</i><i>, </i><i>a </i><i>female </i><i>should </i><i>provide </i><i>for </i><i>a </i><i>male </i><i>and </i><i>raise </i><i>their </i><i>Pups</i>.” Has the fucking Idiot lost his mind, I would dly stay at home to take care of our Pups if I had a Mate like Zalia.
King Alwin unmutes the call but mutes it again after Zalia tells him she send him another recording, if the first one hadn’t been enough to grant Alpha Brad his request this second recording definitely did and I have a huge smirk on my face when I hear that Donovan and Gibson will be keeping uspany for a while after thepetition is over.
For a few moments we just sit in silence, “What are your ideas in regard of Donovan and Gibson?” Queen Axelle asks and Eryx shoot up straight in his chair, this is something he always looks forward to. He loves giving the lectures on ourws and he can make them really boring, than he will give them tests at random.
What they usually are unaware of is that as long as they fail Eryx will keep giving them his lectures and sometimes it can take along time before they figure out how to get back home fast. “Well, my Love. I have this feeling that Eryx has a few ideas.” King Alwin says teasingly.
“Eryx, would you mind if I helped you out?” S asks with a wicked smile on her face and we all know why she is asking to help him, Donovan and Gibson will make mistake after mistake with S around. “Of course, I look forward to having you around the entire day.” He says before he kisses her on the top of her head.
mind. I walk out of the office in deep thought, I let everything from the past few hours pass through my and I have trouble controlling Goliath. <i>“</i><i>Want </i>to <i>go </i><i>for </i>a run?” I ask him and I high–tail it out of the Pce once he tells me he needs a distraction, <i>“</i>Leander<i>, </i><i>where </i><i>are </i><i>you</i>? <i>Goliath </i><i>needs </i><i>to </i>run <i>the </i><i>border </i><i>for </i><i>a </i><i>while</i><i>.</i>” I ask through the mind–link.
Ten minutester I am running along our borders with Leander by my side, for almost an hour we don’t say a word as we keep our eyes and ears out to find Rogues. We are halfway through our first run along the border when Leander finally breaks the silence, he asks me what has Goliath so agitated and I tell him about the phone call with Alpha Brad.
He nearly tumbles to the ground when I tell him about the second recording and we slow down to a jog as

he tries to wrap his head around my words, <i>“</i><i>Why </i><i>is </i>it that <i>some </i><i>males </i><i>will </i><i>never </i>ept a female in a high- <i>ranking </i><i>position</i>?” Leander asks me, but we both know I don’t have an answer to that question.
Once we havepleted our run around the territory we shift back to our Human form and after we have put our clothes back on we sit down against a huge tree not far from the Pce. We spend the next few hours taking about the female we met almost five weeks ago at the meeting, “Do you think Zalia will stay within Moon Stone Pack?” Leander asks.
“No, once thepetition is over she wants to start traveling to find her Mate, and if she doesn’t find him she will move to the Pce.” I answer him and I have to exin to him how I can be so sure about her ns. “Then I hope her Mate is around here somewhere, it will make things a little more interesting around here.” Leander responds.

After our meeting with Alpha Brad is over, I head back to Gaia’s ce and quickly put on my device before I run out of time. But Kianda tells me I have enough time left to take a shower. I see Nyx and Jasmine looking at the hints I wrote down, and I decide to take a shower before I start to figure out the best way to find the rewards.
I let my mind run free as the water cascades down my body, not paying much attention to the thoughts that drift through my mind. There is nothing I could do or could have done to change anything, Donovan never wanted me as his Gamma, and that much is clear. I doubt anyone could have changed his mind.
“How <i>can </i><i>he </i><i>be </i><i>so </i><i>different </i><i>from </i><i>his </i><i>parents</i>?” Twilight asks me. I let it run through my mind as I wash my hair and body. I know every Pup can have a different view on things than their parents and I know I have had my run–ins with Dad about things on a few asions.
I was always able to talk to Dad about the things I didn’t agree with and Dad would always let me speak my mind before he would exin why he did something the way he did. In the end, I would always figure out it was I who had the wrong view and I am d Dad always allowed me to speak my mind.
I turn the shower off as I try to remember if Donovan has ever spoken out about his disagreements, but I never heard Dad or Alpha Brad mention it and I truly believe Dad would have told me if Donovan had. I dry myself off, then, I walk out of the bathroom to get dressed and I push every thought about Donovan and Gibson out of my mind. I need to focus on getting those rewards from the Pce.
“Any idea on where to find the reward for Amber Moon Pack?” Nyx asks the moment I walk into the living room and I pull out my phone to show her the picture I took: <i>Enter </i><i>the </i><i>Pce </i><i>from </i>your western border. Find <i>the </i><i>one</i><i>–</i>legged King for <i>your </i><i>reward</i>.
Jasmine asks me if I know what they mean with that description and I nod my head as I sit down with my coffee.
“King Alwin’s great Grandfather lost his leg when he saved a little girl from a group of Rogues. He was only sixteen at the time and he never regretted it for a moment. They were unable to find her family, so they decided she would stay at the Pce, and in the long run, it was the best decision they could have made. She was his fated Mate.” I say as I try to remember where his painting or statue is located in the Pce.
“His statue is standing in the garden behind the Pce, right next to the entrance to therge meeting room.” I tell them as I point at the map on the screen and I really hope that Leander won’t be on patrol

tomorrow night, he might be one of the few people that could discover my presence. Not that he is allowed to interfere with thepetition, but if I can avoid anyone finding out I am still in thepetition, I would prefer it.
Dad printed out a map of the Pce and a map of Mystic Moon territory, I wrote down their patrol from the first night I went to the Pce along the edge. I am certain that they will change their patrols on a regr basis, but how often or when it will get changed I don’t know and that means keeping my eyes open at all times.
I ce both maps on the table and I see that someone has already crossed off the first two clues. I trace at route from the backdoor to the stairs to see what I will encounter on my way to the second reward I want to im. I see a small corridor not far from the main stairs and I wonder if it is the staircase that Deimos and I used.
As I look at the map of the Pce, I notice more of the small corridors and I think I have found my way around the main hallways and staircases. It might even help me with my personal quest. If those corridors run all through the Pce, they may not only be my ticket to getting around the Pce safely, but they may also be a reason for concern.
If I can find them so can someone with ill intentions and I will make sure <b>I </b>point this out to King Alwin if it turns out those corridors can be used to hurt the Royal Family. I trace my route a few times to memorize them, I want to get in and out of the Pce fast and get those rewards without getting caught.
The fifth day of thepetition is spent in a rxing manner, I have a normal night’s sleep and I even go on border patrol with my team in the morning. We know where our other patrols are and we avoid each of them as we move through the forest. I manage to avoid other Pack–members on our way back to Gaia’s ce.
Day six of thepetition is about to start and I can feel Twilight getting excited about going to the Pce for the rewards, like me she loves a challenge.
