    <b>Chapter </b><b>91 </b>


    Lewana POV


    I just stare at Valerie shocked. What was so funny.


    When she regained herposure she started asking me questions.


    “Is that seriously what you are worried about. Packs not epting you“.


    “No. It’s wars starting because of me. Wolves suffering because of me<b>“</b><b>. </b>


    “Then trust me you have nothing to worry about“. She’s stating this as if it is obvious.


    I look at her perplexed. “How can you be so sure<b>“</b><b>. </b>


    Her nervous eyes suddenly dart to Conrad. “For me to prove this to Lady Lewana, I will need assurance from yourself Alpha King that no charges will beid against me“.


    Conrad starts to growl and holds his hand tofort him. “What have you done“.


    “Nothing that vites the Werewolf Rights act. There may be some questionable activities but not one was harmed“.


    Conrad looks at Liam and I can see they are discussing something on the mind–link.


    Conrad huffs. “Fine. Anything else you need before you tell us“.


    “Yes actually. You can get your hacker to stay away from mywork“.


    Liam loudly exims, “That’s you. I totally thought it was going to be one of the Alpha’s“.


    Conrad turns to me. “What do you think“.


    “I think we should trust her. If she says she hasn’t broken the act and she had, she wouldn’t be showing us“.


    He sits me up in the bed and sits beside me. He just holds on tight while taking in deep breaths of my scent to calm himself down. He knows he is too emotionally charged right now.


    “Fine. When Lewana is safe to discharge. Prove what you can to us“.


    The morphine helps with the pain of the silver and I don’t want to be lying in a hospital bed so I try to leave immediately. Conrad agreed to me being discharged if I didn’t leave his side for the next 12 hours and medics checked on me every hour. Think it was more of a reassurance for him.


    I still feel really stiff and sluggish but the second I was struggling at all Conrad picked me up and carried me. I could feel him pushing for the bond to be open but I knew he would try and transfer his strength and take my pain so I opened up slightly so he could feel the connection.


    We got to the conference room as Valerie said she needed herptop and arge screen to transmit to. All the girls are waiting there to check on me. Arthurs is there as well so I go and hug him. I tell them I’m fine but they are still clearly


    worried. We all take our seats and wait.


    Conrad gets the attention of the room but is clearly still on edge. “So what exactly have you been up to Lady Valerie“.


    “I run a secret undergroundwork supporting she–wolves who are in trouble. Anything they are worried about, forced mating, birth control, mate beatings, pups being sold, it alles to me through thework to help them. That is why thework is so heavily protected. If an Alpha broke into it to find the she–wolves I helped hide in other packs they would all be in danger“.


    Conrad is more rmed than anything. “Why the hell did you think I would be mad at that“.


    “Most people don’t react well to people running operations under authority noses. I also have hidden active websites and social media ounts as ways for wolves to keep up to date with news. I actually have a degree in journalism and believe


    in reporting the truth to the people. That’s why you might be mad“.


    She logs in and we see the post from four months ago first. None show the Alpha King in a good light. Allments are about a vicious Alpha raiding packs, a brute who was only seeking domination. A man who oversees a council of men and oppresses wolves further. They have shared videos of his raids from CCTV cameras at packs and they make their own


    theories and reports as people on social media usually do.


    <b>I </b>can see Conrad’s heartbreaking. “That’s what the werewolf Kingdom thinks of me<b>“</b>.


    Valerie smiles. “That’s what they used to think of you“.


    She scrolls to where the ceremony started and it’s night and day. Valerie has been reporting on the ceremony and has been taking pictures around the pack. We read the article she has written on all the candidates and the developments that happened.


    The pictures are amazing. She has some of my training with warriors, some of the battles during the past attacks. Even cute ones of me cuddled up with Conrad on the grass and being cuddly outside while we worked.


    “I have done articles on all the candidates, myself included if you want to see. Just for full transparency though I have kind of been getting details from your Beta under false pretenses“.


    Arthur just chuckles. As long as you said nice things<b>, </b>I’m not even mad“.


    I barely read the article but my eyes go to thements. Strong she–wolf we can follow. Hope for us to be seen. A true sign of hope for change. Alpha King made a great choice. A power couple to lead the way.


    I’m just shocked. I never thought they would ept me like this. My rogue status has always meant rejection by my kind but here, they don’t care. They are even proud of it.


    I know this is going to take a while to sink in but Conrad has a wicked grin on his face so I know he is up to something.


    “Lady Valerie. Would you be willing to sell me these photos<b>“</b>.


    She smiles. “Possibly. If the price is right“.


    Conradughs. “Michelle, you have an eye for detail. Get prints of all the best pictures and put them around the house. Liam, get Valerie a contract and pay her whatever she wants. It’s time everyone else realized who truly lives here“.
