The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 52

Decker

I wake up long before my brothers and Emery. As I near the kitchen on my way to start

some coffee, I can already smell the delicious aroma and know that I’m not the first early

riser of the day. Before I even enter, I know exactly who it is that beat me to the first cup

“Good morning, you’re up early.” I state as I make my way over to the coffee pot.

The former Beta sighs, “Your mother reminded us that we have to go through the Elder’s

first. We need to present the situation to them and hope that they grant us the power to

decide for ourselves.”

“Are you f*cking serious? They will only end up saying no and sentencing him to a life in

prison like they did with that Alpha that sat down there for years before he found a way

to off himself. That should have been my mother’s kill, not let him have the coward’s way

out!” I can’t believe that we have to deal with the Elders on this!

“It may be different. Alpha Benjamin was one of us, a shifter, and an Alpha at that. Yes,

he should have been exe- cuted for all the lives that he took in search of your mother,

but the Elder’s thought life in prison would be worse than death. Colin, he isn’t a shifter,

and because he is Ledger’s blood, I’m hoping that they will take his plea into account.”

Spencer squeezes his mate’s hand.
