The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 35

Chapter 35
We were already at the Capital, staying at one of the guest rooms the Chancellor gave every Alpha pair. We weren’t staying the night but we did need to take a few hours rest since arriving earlier this day. The meeting was going to take place in thirty minutes. I already felt tense with tension. Coming face to face with men and woman who wanted more land to themselves. It wouldn’t be a surprise if one of them issued a challenge to an Alpha. It usually happened during these meetings because they’d all take the time to survey the competition.
I would have to be very careful in controlling my emotions. Anything can go wrong in a room full of Alphas.
“Alpha, it’s time.”
Beta Benicio was dressed in his own suit looking sharp for the meeting. Typically, the Alpha, Luna and Beta were permitted in the room. Though the Luna and Beta didn’t have a say, they were allowed to take a seat inside. It was a sign of respect more than it was a sign or equality among ranks.
Taking Hestia’s hand who loosely let me hold it, I forced down my frustration with her and walked down the hall. I could already feel the power radiate from the Alphas a few doors down. Hestia trembled, feeling oppressed by the pressure suddenly weighing her down. She wouldn’t be able to handle staying in that room. With a frustrated sigh, I squeezed her hand and dragged her to the conference room. When we stepped in, seven of the ten Alpha’s were already inside. All male. Their mates were in the back of the room, conversing among themselves with the Beta’s beside them.
It looks like the Hellhound nor the Bloodlust Alpha has yet to arrive.
Recognizing the familiar faces of Alpha Reynolds and Alpha Sei, I greeted them with Hestia falling short behind me. She kept her head down, clearly affected by the aura the Alpha’s were giving out.
Lift your head, Hestia.

I mind linked her. She raised her head an inch before looking down once more in submission. My wolf snarled in annoyance, hating how weak Hestia was making herself look. As the Luna, bowing her head meant showing weakness. She was embarrassing not only herself but the pack. She held the Luna title yet she wasn’t acting like one,
“Ah, Alpha Walker. It’s been a while. I see you brought your mate?”
My smile wavered but I quickly masked it with a laugh.
“Yes, I did. I see yours is making herself acquainted with the other Luna’s. Hestia darling, why don’t you join them? Make some friends for yourself?”
Hestia nodded, looking relieved and quickly walked her way to the group of women huddled around in the corner. Once she was out of sight, I felt a gush of air leave me.
“So I hear the Hellhound is coming.”
Said Alpha Sei, folding his arms across his chest.
“Apparently so. Haven’t seen Alpha Crestfield since they suddenly announced Meredith

Crestfield in stepping down. I didn’t even know she had a daughter.”
Alpha Reynolds added. Alpha Sei hummed in agreement, looking at the seats. The round table had eleven seats in total. One at the very end of the oval where the Chancellor would sit and then five on each side. The first and second ranking pack leaders would sit at his sides. The first being the Bloodlust Alpha, Alpha Locksworth, would sit at his right. The second, being the Hellhound, Alpha Crestfield, would sit on his left. The rest would follow suit in order.
My pack was ranked sixth. I frowned. When my father was Alpha, he ranked fourth.
