Chapter 201 Staring
Perrin, to there screwhere ther we can talk? auk him as we faller the other out of the office. I know I won’t have a lot of time, a nest to auk Renjamin a few testions. He rells me to follow him to the Gamma flot. After we enter the Cament floor, he fore the deve behind us and walks into the kitchen to make us some coffee.
“Zalis is the Daughter of an Alpha blooded male and an Alpha–blooded female. I don’t knend much about my Mate’s family, and I doubt I will ever find the whole truth. What I do know is than her Father wanted her to take Rocco of Sundown Pack as her chosen Mate, and her Father wasn’t against a forceful marking. June had the gift of hearing and made a run for the Palace tell the Royal Family. From what she told me, her Father got stripped of his title. I don’t know which Pack she came from or what happened to the Pack after her Father was stripped of his ride,” Benjamin tells me without me asking him a single question.
Zalia is twenty–six years old, and her Parents moved to Moon Stone Pack after meeting one another, I think to myself. So, if I add a few years to Zalia’s age–because I am not sure if June got pregnant immediately–it could have been thirty years or longer since June’s Father got stripped of his title. But I can’t remember an Alpha being on trial around that time, and I try to recall any cases involving a forceful marking as I sip my coffee.
“Benjamin, do you remember if June ever mentioned how long it took before she came to Silver Sand Pack?” I ask him because I do remember a case like this, but that was over thirty-
seven years ago.
Benjamin is deep in thought, and I get up to pour us another coffee to keep myself busy while I let him think to see if he can remember anything June told him. I can’t remember a female named June coming to the Palace, nor can I remember a case from thirty years ago. I keep coming back to the same case, but I can’t recall the details, and I know that I will have to take a look in the Palace Archive to find the file. That file will give me any answer I can’t find myself.
Just as I am about to tell Benjamin to forget about my question for a while, I feel someone pushing against the block I put up on the mind–link.
“Liam, I want you to come to the Alpha office and take Benjamin and Leander with you,” I hear Axelle say the moment I drop the block.
“Axelle wants to see us in the Alpha office. I think it has finally sunk in that Alwin made too many mistakes over the years,” I say as I get up.
As we reach the office, Leander is already waiting for us. “Any idea what this is about, Liam?” he asks, but I think that Leander knows better than anyone else what this might be about, and I

All he ever cared about was himself, and he went thougle about the consequences of his actione There was always someone to clean up his meet. I will resign from my position as Royal Gamma, but I will help you to find a good replacement and train him or her on the job,” I say and I know than Axelle is grateful that I am at least willing to help her with firading and training my replacement.
“I have a request, though. I would like Zalia to help me, Deimos, and Leander to catalog everything from the hidden spaces on the Alpha floor,” I say, and I can tell that Zalia and Benjamin are wondering what spaces I am talking about.
“Liam, you are still my Gamma, and you are capable of making that decision for yourself. I do appreciate you asking for permission, and I will grant it to you. Maybe Benjamin would like to help out as well. The faster we get through everything, the better, and I want you to take care of the Alpha office as well because I think Zalia will find a lot of answers,” Axelle says before she asks us to start with the Alpha floor while she deals with her Son and the others.

My head is hurting, and I slowly open my eyes, but I shouldn’t have bothered. It doesn’t matter whether my eyes are open or closed–it remains dark. It is eerily quiet around me, and I can tell that I am in the dungeons; the smell around here gives that away. I wonder which idiot thought that they could throw me in a cell, but there is no one around that can answer that question for me, and I decide to figure out if I can find out how I ended up in this cell.
My mind is a mess, and it takes me a few moments before I can make sense of it. It started on the last day of the competition. I had looked at the screen in surprise because the more they said, the more stunning it became. Every leadership was taken out, but to my surprise, I found out that Zalia wasn’t taken out that first night, and I became pissed when they revealed that Zalia took me and Gibson out. What the fuck was she thinking, taking out her own leadership?
She even managed to solve the extra challenge, and she gathered every reward that was hidden at the Palace, along with a few extra items. That is when things really turned weird. She had gotten pissed when an Alpha asked how the King would determine the winner now, and I still remember that her aura felt so much stronger than Father’s aura.
A sound pulls me from my thoughts, and I slowly sit up on the thin mattress I am lying on.

*** am 1 wek, bin they don’t never word you the while they walk one for my cell tearing air in the duit with only very what my rampamises r k me only s momen when I woke to realize that wouldn’t reach Ace, and Fny is remember what happened
I remember walking towards Zalia’s room with Das I walked towards her helt us administer the sedative, and then a becomes foggy. 1 close my eyes to try and remember what happened after I was about to give her that shot, ban the only thing I can see be an undir fare. Fam very sure that I am no longer in my own territory, and if I am here, then so is my Father There is no doubt in my mind that they caught us both. I just wonder how they found out what we were up to.
With nothing else to do here in the dark by myself, I let my mind wander back to the conversation I had with my Father. As a young Pup, I had never doubted who and what my Father was, and it wasn’t until the first meeting I went to that I realized that something was off with him. I started to watch him more closely after that, but I was unable to figure out what was wrong, and if he hadn’t told me everything the other night, I doubt I would have been able to figure it out on my own.
I also found out that Dad showed the world a male who upheld the Law, but that he never agreed with most of our Laws, and if he could, he would bend them in his favor. He never would have denied Zalia her birthright as our Gamma–it is a Law he couldn’t bend in his favor–and with everything I know right now, it might have been best if I had just accepted the fact that I would have a female Gamma. It would have meant that I would still become the Alpha of Moon Stone Pack.
My problem with having a female Gamma would have resolved itself with Zalia being mated to the future Royal Gamma, and I could have gotten myself a male Gamma after she had left. Yeah, I know. Talking in hindsight is always a hell of a lot easier, but it would have saved me a lot of trouble.
Zalia
We walk out of the office, and Liam asks me to link the girls. “We are going to need all the help we can get, and they already know a lot about the things you found,” Liam says, and I hope we will find answers to some of the questions I have.
All four of the girls walk out of the living room, and they follow us up to the Alpha floor, only to be stopped by Elinor and Luna Hester on the landing of the Beta floor.
“I want to see my Mate,” Luna Hester demands as she looks at Liam.
