Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483: Arrest Blythe Nightshade immediately

The Pack Council chamber, typically reserved for solemn, formal judgments, was now filled with palpable tension. Every wolf present, from the senior elders to the ranking warriors, was visibly shocked to see Katelyn. They had not anticipated the presence of the royal Princess in their pack, especially at this critical, unauthorized hour.

Sage strode toward the dais, ensuring Katelyn was settled securely in the seat right next to his own before he took the imposing Alpha’s seat. William and Blythe took their less elevated, respective places, looking grim and deeply troubled.

"Alpha, why has the council suddenly been called?" inquired Senior Harvey, one of the most respected elders. "We heard unsettling rumors that Miss Zoey has been kidnapped."

"Senior Harvey, that is the main reason we have gathered here," Sage asserted, his voice cutting through the murmurs of the room. "My sister is still in the kidnapper’s hands. And he will be here at any moment. He demanded that this council occur. If we failed to convene, he threatened to harm my sister." Sage clenched his fists beneath the table, the humiliation of realizing they couldn’t even catch a single rogue wolf burning in his chest.

"What were our wolves doing?" scoffed another council member, his tone dripping with disdain. "Could they truly not catch one rogue? That is utterly pathetic."

"The rogue was quite far from us before Zoey’s kidnapping was even revealed to us," Sage argued, defending his pack. "Blaming the wolves now isn’t the right thing to do."

Just then, Aiden, Sage’s Beta, entered the council hall with a tuat gaze. "Alpha, the rogue is here with Miss Zoey, but he has specifically asked us to withdraw all security from the perimeter." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Do what he is saying, immediately," Sage commanded, his voice sharp and steady despite the mounting pressure.

Aiden nodded and rushed out. Five agonizing minutes later, a lean, grim-faced man, the rogue wolf, entered the council chamber. He was pushing Zoey, who was slumped deeply and unconscious, in a wheelchair. The sight of his sister so vulnerable and still made Sage visibly flinch with a surge of protective anger.

"Thank you for calling the council at this hour, Sage Nightshade. Do you remember me?" the man asked.

"Now that we have permitted you to speak, you should return Zoey to us," William stated, rising sharply from his seat, the Alpha rising to the defense of his family. Blythe immediately stood up as well, her frantic gaze fixed on her daughter, wanting desperately to pull Zoey back from the man’s grip.

"Shut your fucking mouth!" the rogue screamed at them, the sheer volume of his rage silencing the entire chamber.

"Dad, don’t," Sage intervened, his control unwavering. He finally rose from the dais and moved a few steps forward. "Sorry, I don’t remember you," he stated calmly. "But if you tell me your name, I may recall. Also, you said my mother has something to do with your family. That is why you abducted my sister. I assure you nothing will happen to you, but you must return my sister safely. She is still unconscious, and that worries me immensely."

"Stop right there!" the man shouted, his hand snapping out to pull a long, wickedly sharp silver knife from inside his jacket.

"Alright, I won’t move," Sage affirmed instantly, raising both hands slowly, a universal sign of surrender and compliance. Then, lowering his arms, he said, "Let’s start then. What exactly happened with your family?"

"Sage, I am Vance Morvane," the man finally revealed, the name echoing in the sudden silence of the council chamber.
