Very Capable


    Very Capable


    Quin’s p.o.V.


    Some of the Elders and their families are too pleased with being confined to the Throne room, but Dad isn’t going to allow <b>any </b>of them to cause problems.


    We retreat to the King’s chamber for lunch, but Das looks at Joshua before she follows us.


    “We have eyes and ears on everyone. Anyone who uses a mind–link will be reported, just as a precaution.” Das says after the door has closed behind us.


    Lunch is spent in silence; none of us seems too eager to talk. Our ears will be put to the test after lunch when we resume the trial shortly. We might need to ask Dad to give them an order to keep their mouths shut.


    “Uncle Vaughn<b>, </b>can you give the same order as you did for Dezra’s trial?” Das asks.


    “Did you read my mind?” I ask her and I hear a few family members chuckle.


    Dad tells Das and me to stay behind; he doesn’t want us to be affected by his order and I am d I get to keep my free will in this case. No one else objects to the loss of their free will and I turn my head away as Das gets pulled in for a kiss by her Mates.


    I feel a little jealous of their bond. I haven’t found my connection yet and I hope it won’t take as long as it did for Daxton and


    Darius.


    “You will find her. It might not be in the next week, but it will happen.” Das says after the door closed behind her Mates. “I am still amazed that I found my second connection so fast, but I am grateful for it every day.”


    Das is correct; it is rare to find your second connection so quickly and this is the main reason Shifters are careful when breaking that connection or rejecting their Mate.


    Mom opens the door for us after Dad has given his order and we get a few murderous res. And it isn’t just from the Elders. There are even some Alphas that don’t appreciate the order.


    “I hope you all enjoyed your lunch. I know that I did.” Das says as she walks onto the stage. “We will discuss everythi


    Elders have tried to hide for the past three generations that sat on this Throne. Prince Quin and I want you to unde we will restore all of it.”


    Soft growls are heard throughout the room, but Das acts as if she doesn’t hear them.


    “If an Elder or an Alpha has a problem with aw, they can make their issues known, and we will discuss them amongst ourselves. Once we have made a decision, it will be best if you ept our judgement or you will pay the price.


    The first item on the agenda is the visits from the King to a Pack. They will be announced and unannounced; if the King is refused entry, it will have severe consequences for the Alpha and his leadership.” Das states.


    She looks around the room to see if an Alpha is trying to get a word in and she has found one that is fuming. She allows him to speak his mind without consequences.

    “Your Majesty, I will not ept orders like this from a little girl. I have been leading my Pack sessfully for over twenty years and a toddler isn’t going to force me to change my ways.” The Alpha says.


    Before I can blink my eyes at the disrespect the Moron shows Das, she is already standing in front of him.


    My jaw drops at the sight of a Half–shifted Das. In all my life, I have never seen this. Yeah, I know at twenty one that isn’t very long, but you get my drift.


    Her ws are out, digging into the flesh of his neck and his toes barely touch the floor. She has grown a foot in height and fur is sprouting from her uncovered arms and hands.


    “Don’t ever disrespect us again or you will be put on trial and if memory serves me right, the penalty is death.” Das <b>says </b>with a voice that is <b>a </bbination of her own and Charna’s<b>. </b>


    “Let this be a lesson for all. We will not ept any form of disrespect, whether it is directed at the Royals or Shifters within the Phaenian Kingdom.” I hear them say, but my eyes are on Elder Dawn and her family.


    After she releases the Alpha, I see blood trickling down his neck. His Wolf isn’t really helping him to heal and I think that his Wolf feels that he deserved what happened.


    “Princess Das, it isn’t a good idea to alienate Alphas. They are the leaders of the Packs within this Kingdom and they can make ruling the Kingdom very hard for you and your family.” Elder Dawn states as Das walks past her.


    Das hasn’t gotten out of her Half–shift yet and I have to turn my face away from the crowd. Elder Dawn wets herself the moment Das reaches out to grab her. Not a pretty sight in my opinion.


    “Elder Dawn, you are relieved of duty. Your Father has deceived the Royal family for generations and you have helped him after taking over from him. Once we have reviewed everything that was uncovered, we will determine the penalty for you and your family.


    Captain Vern, once today’s part of the trial is over, you can escort former Elder Dawn down to her new amodations. Anyone who feels that they can react or act the same as former Elder Dawn or Alpha Dipshit will join her. <b>Is </b>that clear?” Thest part is growled in anger.


    <b>“</b>Why didn’t the order work on her?” A Squad member asks and I look at Dad for an answer, but I don’t have to wait for him to


    answer me.


    Das grabs her hand to pry it open, revealing the earplugs she had been trying to hide.


    “Why am I not surprised to find these?” Das asks no one in particr as she crushes the earplugs in her hand.


    By the time she has reached the stage, she is back to her usual self again and Charna seems content to stay near the surface but not inplete control.


    “<b>For </b>my own peace of mind, we will continue this trial with the Servants who were hired to serve in the Royal wing. We will inform you about what we have found so far on who hired them and for what reason.” Dad says, before he sits down again.


    This is Das’s show, and she is more than capable of handling it by herself.
