The Merciless Alpha(erotica)

I was in place ten minutes early; since I had called the meeting, I was running the show. I watched as the Alphas got on, each appearing in a small window on the right half of the screen. I smiled at Dallas as he came on representing the Copper Mountain pack. On the left, the person talking (I could click on a person to give them the floor) and the documents were on the top and bottom of the frame. Shortly after two, I started the meeting. “Thank you for coming on, gentlemen. Last night, an organized group of rogue warriors carried out an attack on my Pack, going after two vehicles just outside my territory. I am pleased to say that all but one of the rogues was killed, and the leader was captured.” I was studying the reactions; the Council was trying hard not to respond, while the others were pleased. “Here is the list of the men who were killed.” I went through a slide show, showing each dead man along with their name and any information we had on where they were from.

“Those men came from all over the country,” one of the Alphas said. “Why would they all come together at your lands?”

“Alpha Brent is not disclosing that his Pack is harboring the Alpha Killer,” Chairman Wolfe said. “There is a reward for her capture, I’d have no problem paying rogues for it if they capture or kill her.”

“My pack isn’t harboring anyone, Mr. Chairman. Talia Stillwater is mated to my son, she is part of my FAMILY and part of my PACK. The real question is why the Council is bankrolling Todd Aldridge and paying rogues to get her. Todd kidnapped Tania Stillwater, who is mated to another of my sons, and had her parents killed. He walked in to the Council headquarters and walked out with money and a mandate. And I can prove it.” I started playing the video, it ran almost five minutes long and during that time all reaction was muted. Todd went through everything; his visit to the Council, the deal he made, where he got the money to hire the rogues, and what he was supposed to do. When it was done, I unmuted, and it was bedlam.

“ALPHA BRENT IS WORKING WITH VAMPIRES,” Chairman Wolfe yelled over everyone. “He is betraying our kind. Talia is an abomination, a mix of vampire and werewolf, and it has to be stopped. The Master Vampire on his lands right now did it, and we as a Council were right to demand their capture.”

I laughed. “If your cause was so just, why work in secret with outlaws and disgraced Alphas? I have nothing to hide here. Talia was changed after a Vampire Coven took her in when all of US abandoned her. The vampires didn’t kill her parents, Alpha Justin Heranus’ men did. The vampires didn’t take kidnap her sister, the man the Council elevated to Alpha instead of her did. The vampires didn’t rape her sister and steal her baby, Justin did. And the vampires didn’t take away her wolf and sell her as a sex slave, Beta Meoffe did.” I leaned forward, letting my face show that I was pissed. “Yes, I have a Coven on my lands. They are Talia’s family. Werewolves and vampires are NOT at war right now, and I’m building a relationship with them that could benefit us all. Talia proved to me that there were vampires who could be trusted, ones with more honor than some of the men on this call right now,” I finished.

“This is madness, and it must stop NOW,” Chairman Wolfe responded.

Suddenly, the doors burst open in his room. “I AGREE,” a woman’s voice shouted. He turned and his eyes opened wide, just before Talia Stillwater grabbed him by the neck and lifted him like he was nothing. She slammed him onto the conference table, her claws extending, then she pulled her hand back.

The front of his neck went flying away in a spray of blood, and Wolfe raised his hands to his neck. It was hopeless, arterial blood was spraying all over the room and he had seconds to live. Talia moved to the side and we heard a plea for mercy. When she came back on camera, she had the Chief Counsel, Lawrence Kendall, on his knees. Extending a claw, she drew it across his throat and tossed him onto the table next to the dying Chairman he served.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

She moved towards the microphone, covered in blood and totally dominant. “These men gathered in this very room and decided they wanted me for themselves,” she said to the assembled Alphas. “The entire Council voted to send rogues after me and my Pack. This Council also risked starting a war with the Vampires by capturing a Master for their experiments. It wouldn’t be the first time the Council has experimented on vampires. I personally killed the Mount Shasta leadership that was doing it at their bidding and freed the two vampires they held. You would be at war right now if I had not taken action to defuse the situation,” she said.

She casually grabbed each of the men with a hand and tossed them backwards. It looked like she wasn’t trying, but these big men flew backwards and their dead bodies left dents in the wall behind her. “I will no longer accept such leadership. My family will not accept it. My Pack will not accept it, and neither should honorable Alphas. The four of you on the Council who are not here to die at my hands, you have five minutes to resign. If you do not, I will come after you and your death will be neither quick nor painless. Do not think you will escape death, for I bring certain death with me. Choose a new Council, boys. Choose wisely.” She turned and walked off camera.

A new face came into view, I’d recognized him when they entered. “Everything she just said was the truth,” Chief Enforcer Jacque Jones said. “I have taken control of this facility pending the election of a new Council.”
