Scheduling the hearing for two days was cheating according to the pack laws. For an incident as major as that? But then again, it'd be foolish of him if he expected fairness from his Father, Darien knows that much.
Kairos snarls in his head. "I swear, this man needs to be put in a retirement home with NO windows."
"You want her to lose," Darien accuses.
"I want order," the Alpha retorts. "I want stability. I want a future not tainted by myth-soaked nonsense that threatens the leadership of this pack."
Morgan steps forward, anger turning him red. "You mean a future where you stay in power forever."
The Alpha doesn't deny it. Instead, he straightens his coat. "You've declared war on me. So don't cry when it starts to sting."
"We're not crying," Darien barks. "We're choosing what's right!"
"And so am I," the Alpha replies coldly.
