Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 161: Interrogation at the Council

"Alpha Sokolov, do you have something to say?" On the other side, in a large chamber, twenty or so men were

looking at Killian with the scontemptous gaze.

Killian raised his head and looked at the old man who was sitting at the circular table, his bald pate shining under

the lights, and he was glaring at Killian as if Killian had snatched his daughter from him. Something he might

have done; he wasn’t sure about it.

He said, "Of course, | do. Do you really expectto accept this one-sided criticism?" With his fingers

interlocked, Killian leaned forward on the table and looked at the elders of the council, all of them looking at him

pointedly as if they wished to find a flaw in his stance.

"What is one-sided about this entire report?" said another elder. With his majestic bread that dangled all the way

to the floor, he said to Killian, "It seemed quite clear from Noah's report that you failed in keeping an eye on

things, and a lycan from your very own pack hid away a rather valuable good."

"Do you even understand what kind of loss your pack has made the council suffer?!"

Killian remained unfazed even when the rest of the elders banged their fists on the surface of the table, agreeing

with what the man had said.

He waited for the applause to subside before Killian pursed his lips and leaned back in his chair. Once the hall fell

silent, Killian parted his lips and spoke in a steady and stern voice, "First of all, the siren was a living, breathing

creature with her own sentience. No matter how valuable her body might be to the council or the shifters, you

cannot just classify her as a good to be used. If not, then what is the difference between the shifters who had

used the outcast in the past and us? With what right did you condemn them when you are doing the same,

Norman?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Norman flushed red. He gasped for air, feeling humiliated and embarrassed, for

he could not believe that a man as young as Killian had refuted him in such a manner.

Clenching his fingers tightly, he said to Killian, "Be that as it may, it doesn’t change the fact that you didn’t keep

an eye on your pack members, which led the council to suffer a loss. If we had captured the siren before she met

with that man, then she would have been useful for the council and the shifters. What do you have to say about

that slight on your part?"

"Don’t tellthat you have an excuse prepared for this, too?" Norman added with a sly grin, which brought

smiles to the lips of many elders.

Even the ever stoic Noah smiled because they all believed that they had cornered Killian.

"No, | don’t have an excuse for that slight," Killian offered with a smile. However, before the final verdict could be

passed, he added in a steady voice, "However, | do have a rather peculiar question, Norman. The one that | have

been trying to suppress. The sudden disappearances of the fox shifters from your pack. | wonder how much of a

steady and wise leader you are if you failed to relay these disappearances of your shifters to the council."

There was a very nasty silence as everyone slowly turned to look at Norman. Seth, the head of the council,

slowly turned to look at Norman. The man, though young-looking with a small stature, was the head of the

dragon shifters and the only dragon who was able to survive past the age of four hundred.

With his mint green hair and blue eyes, the man looked fairly cute, but when he addressed Norman, the man

trembled from his fluffy beard to his toes, "Is this true?" Seth asked in a voice so deep that it seemed like it was

coming from the pits of hell. "Are fox shifters disappearing from your pack?"

"In response to the head...head of the seat... | wanted to tell the council about these disappearances, but | hoped

that | would find these foxes before resorting to such severe means."

"But | think that these foxes have been missing for months?" Killian spoke with an innocent expression, making

the fox shifter glare at him.

He wondered how Killian found out about the disappearances of the foxes in his pack and whether there was a

traitor in his pack who relayed such sensitive information to Killian.

Seth inhaled sharply. What else was there to understand?

"The meeting is adjourned. Norman, you need to submit a report and the portraits of the foxes who have

disappeared before the weekend."

As soon as Seth announced his decision, the elders turned outraged and even Norman couldn't stop himself from

speaking, "But Head of the council—"

"If you have something to say against my decision, then make sure that your own tails are squeaky clean," Seth

spoke in a threatening voice. He then turned to look at Killian before asking him, "I believe that you have a lot

more information than just this piece."

The man didn’t agree or deny, but everyone took his silence as a concession.

The elders who were making a

ruckus calmed down and sat back on

their seats while silently watching,

"Killian, cto my office later," Seth said to Killian as he got down from the high chair and then walked out of

the conference room after the meeting was over.
