The Dark Side Of Fate
Chapter 129
Chapter 129 – ~Sylvester~
Larry was the first to stand and address all of us. Since Makhailovs were indisposed, the responsibility fell on him.
“We all know why we are here today,” he said, clearing his throat.
“I will bring you up to speed for those who do not know,” he said, looking at the alphas from each region to ensure he had their attention.
“Three nights ago, Sylvester Volkov, acting in the lord’s capacity, made a massive arrest, arresting alphas, council members, mates and so on. He arrested people, randomly targeting them. Took over the council prison by force by installing his enforcers and was unapologetic about it,” He said, and many people gasped.
“We have a report that states some people were beaten up and denied their rights. We have a witness that claimed they saw the people Sylvester Volkov arrested, requesting that they be brought before this council for a fair trial. He did not only deny them but threw them into prison.
We tried reaching out to him in good faith, but he refused to respond. He acted as if he was above the law and could do as he liked. Right now, we do not know his victims’ condition, nor know if they are still alive. This tyrannical behaviour should not be allowed to stand,” Larry said, and people began to murmur.
“As a lord, Sylvester Volkov protects and serves us. Every suspect has the right to be brought before this council. He locked some up in the dungeon in his estate, and when it was filled up, he took over the prison. We can’t allow this. So today, the council has decided to relieve him of his status as lord and try him for violating the people’s basic rights,” Larry said, and everyone grumbled. It was clear it did not sit well with some people.
“We do not want a war; leave Volkov alone,” I heard some alphas say, afraid of what I might do. My family’s reputation was really strong.
“I object!” Leo said, standing up, and everyone was silent.
“This council will make no such decision without me and my colleagues’ points of view in consideration,” he said, and there was silence.
It was clear the council wanted the regional leaders to refrain from speaking.
They were supposed to table Leo’s letter instead of what they tabled. They feared losing power before getting rid of me.
Removing me as lord meant anyone would be installed as King. I bet Leo saw it coming. He made the best move.
“I object to this nonsense. I sent a letter yesterday, and that is what we are here to discuss,” he said, tabling the fundamental matter.
“Eh, Alpha Albert, we have to deal with the issue before discussing your matter,” Larry tried to explain.
“The issue at hand and the matter we are discussing are one and the same. The council no longer wants a lord, and I agree,” He said, and there was total silence because the implications of his words meant the council had won.
“I do not want a lord because this lordship thing has not helped us. There is a terrorist group trying to cause war by all means, and there is no way to catch them because of the stupid laws and protocols we have to follow.
Recently we let a suspect go because we couldn’t pin anything on her. How can we succeed under these stringent laws that favour criminals?” He said, referring to Amanda. No one wanted to let her go, but we could not pin anything on her, which still baffles me.
“This system could also be corrupt, which is why I see a few empty council seats. I do not want a lord but a King,” he said, and people were surprised.
