Deacon shifts uncomfortably on the spot, looking at Clarke while the other council members glance at Deacon, making me wonder if Deacon was only doing this as a favor to his brother, whom we were now aware was a traitor.

"We found evidence at John's packhouse,"

Deacon declares and I laughed because it even sounded ridiculous.

"Before or after the forsaken attack? Or during?" I ask Deacon, but he says nothing.

When I see Clark step forward and John growls and snarls from where he was pinned before hearing the sound of screeching tires across the intersection.

Glancing over, I see Slasher Pack's Alpha climb out of the car.

Alpha Daxon and I were on good terms.

However, he didn't have the best relationship with m y father, seeing as reportedly my father killed his son Preston.

Yet Preston himself didn't have a stellar relationship with his own father, who had threatened to remove his title for misdoings and the attention he constantly got from the media.

Yet Alpha Daxon was a good Alpha, a little old school like my father, but good.

Though, it made me wonder why he had come here.

Was he helping Nixon too? 

 "Fucking bastard, you found nothing! Your men turned the place upside down, and nothing. I know this was for Amber, Clarke, you prick!"

John growled, and Clarke nodded to the main officer, pinning him before one of the officers smashed his baton across the back of his head.

I pressed my lips in a line, and one of the older council members glared at Clarke, who gave the order.

Turning my attention back to Deacon, I fought back a growl.

"I don't remember you fighting on the front lines, Deacon.So while patient 'zero' or Luna Claire was dying protecting the city, were you planting evidence? Or was it your brother?"

I ask him, wondering what the Alpha was doing here as I felt his aura getting closer.

"And where was Nixon?" I ask his Luna, turning my attention to her.

"Fleeing, that is where the scum was.

Does it upset you that he left you behind with his psychotic son?"

Alpha Daxon says, coming up behind me.

"Dax," I acknowledge as he comes to by me.

"I lost over 100 of my men in that forsaken attack, and not once did I see one of Nixon's men step out to protect our city.In fact, half of them were fucking forsaken, so how can you believe this Ludacris bullshit? Now let John up."

Alpha Daxon growls.
