Two Days Later 

For three hours, I had waited sitting in the council for my petition meeting.My ass was going numb, and this skirt was so tight it was digging into my hips.

The cooling in here sucked too, and was making me feel queasy and when I saw Alpha Nixon walk out of the chambers with a smug smile on his face, my mood soured even more.I stood up, placing my folder on my seat and moved toward him.

My appointment was three hours ago.My father comes out and rushes past, heading for the doors before I could even say anything to him.

Not even a glance in my direction, yet Nixon was all too happy to approach me.He strolled over in his tailored suit, briefcase and his black leather shoes.He stopped i n front of me, giving me the once over.

"How lovely to see you, Everly.What brings you here?" he asks with a sly smile.

My eyes narrow a t him as people pushed out the doors behind us, leaving the council chambers and heading out past security.They cast us nervous glances, which set mea little on edge.

"You know exactly why I'm here," I growl at him.

"Oh, nobody told you?" he asks, smiling wickedly.

He glances at the receptionist.

My brows furrow in confusion at his words.

No one told me or notified me to say it wasn't going ahead, so I had no idea what he was talking about.

"Your meeting was postponed.We postponed it 0 n compassionate grounds after hearing about your tragedy at the hotel.What a shame!"

Alpha Nixon said in a mocking tone.

"Compassionate grounds.It was not necessary, I never asked for it to be postponed and nobody notified me that it had been," I tell him, glancing at the foyer desk and the woman behind it ducked her head when I turned my glare on her.

That woman had stared at me for three hours and did not say a goddamn word, just kept saying be patient ma'am someone will be right with you! 

"Not to matter, these things can’t be helped.I was coming to see you today, anyway.I wanted to make you an offer," Nixon says, forcing my attention back to him.

I purse my lips and fold my arms across my chest, and scoff at his words.

This man had done enough and I wouldn’t accept any offer he ever made.

"How much for what is left of that dump?" he asks.

"It isn't for sale, and if it was, you would never be able to afford it," I tell him.

"Now, don't be rash, Everly.That place is rubble and soot, holds no value."

"Then what do you want with it if it holds no value? I know exactly what that land is worth and what it will be worth once I rebuild.Though I should say thank you for burning to the ground!"

"T have no idea what you are talking about," he says, fiddling with his cufflinks.

"Sure you don't, but thank you," I smile.

"And why is that?"

Nixon chuckles arrogantly, and I lean closer to whisper to him.

"Because I just realized how much larger my pack is.You know numbers.That's all you Alpha's care about, the number of members you have, warriors.Well, I outnumber every pack here, so Alpha, I suggest you fal] in line before I make you my omega bitch," I tell him.

"You are asking for war, Everly.How will your father feel going to war against his own daughter? "
