The Alpha Train (Christina and Sebastian) novel Chapter 298

Chapter 99

“Yes. Alpha.”

As we step into the conference room, I hear Gabe arguing with the warriors who are dragging him to the cells.

“This is fucking bullshit! I was sleeping! I’ve been up all night!”

I make sure they have a handle on him, then close the conference room door. At the table, the council has set themselves up on the opposite side of the table from Shane and Enya. The two of them have left a seat in between them for me. Unlike with the investigators, this already feels like an ‘us versus them‘ situation.

“Alpha Christian, why don’t you start by telling us how a pack member was murdered on your watch,” Councilman Felix says after I sit.

“Actually, Councilman, I think we need to start from the beginning. I’d hate for you to create a judgement about what has been going on in this pack without having all the facts.”

When the other council members nod in agreement, I begin. I lay out everything that has happened so far, starting with the attack on me the moment I arrived, the interviews that got me wondering about Alpha Colin’s death, his medical records that seemed off, the money that didn’t add up, and then Dorian and Nancy’s interviews yesterday.

“You haven’t been here very long, have you Alpha Christian?” Councilwoman Zara asks.

“Just over two weeks.”

“You’ve accomplished a lot in just two weeks,” Councilwoman

Charlotte says.

“And yet, someone has died on your watch, Alpha,” Councilman Felix says.

“No, my sister is right! Two weeks ago, we didn’t even know my father was murdered. Now, because of Christian, we do. He’s been investigating, working hard to find answers, all while stabilizing this pack and working with two distraught Alpha heirs. Perhaps if YOU hadn’t taken so long to get back to us about my father’s medical records, this wouldn’t have happened. If Christian is to blame for Nancy’s death, then I’d say an equal amount of blame falls on the Council,” Shane says.
