Chapter 137 The Position of Alpha Queen

A heavy silence descended over the now, much calmer, courtroom. Ann couldn’t help

but feel a little cheated that they wouldn’t immediately be executed, but there was

nothing that she could do to reverse the decision.

It was, however, a decidedly better outcome than she had initially feared, although,

she wasn’t sure that Adam would agree with her. His face was still dark with a

murderous rage and the aura emanating from him was terrifying. She understood fully

now why he had such a terrifying reputation.

“With these vile matters resolved and a judgment in place, I move to vote that the

current reigning Alpha King Leopold Veritas, his former wife, Narcissa Veritas and

his… non-biological daughter, Ada Veritas, hereby be s*tri*pped of their royal t*itles.”

father sat. The tiniest wave of pity washed over her as she took in his dejected

appearance and resolute set of his jaw.

“The Royal Elder Council is in agreement. Effective immediately both Narcissa Veritas

and Ada Veritas will be s*tri*pped of their status. Alpha King Leopold Veritas will act as

a proxy until his replacement can be inaugurated.” The Ancient voice continued.

Ann blinked in surprise.
