“Jax, I am taking back the Alpha title and training your Brother for the position. You have destroyed all that our family has worked for in less than six years and I hope I can rebuild it with your Brother.” Jax’s Father says.
He looks at Uncle Vaughn and I have a feeling of what he wants from us.
“Jax, you, your Mate and her family will travel back to the Palace with us. We will find a Pack that is willing to take you in, but I will also ask King Vaughn to give you and your Mate an order never to reject one another.” I say.
“Darrion, can you talk to Lilian? I need to know if there is absolutely no hope for her and her second connection.” I ask him and after a short nod, he walks out of the Pack–house.
I hope that Darrion can convince her to give this second connection a chance, because I don’t know if she might ever get a third connection. I also believe that this is the Goddess‘ way to tell us that Lilian is meant to be a luna, more specifically the Luna of Dark Iron Pack.
Uncle Vaughn steps in front of Alpha Jax, but I doubt he has any idea of what is about to happen.
“I, King Vaughn of the Phaenian Kingdom, hereby declare that you will no longer hold the position of Alpha and the powers given to you by the previous Alpha will be returned to him.” Uncle Vaughn says and Jax falls to his knees as he gets stripped of his title.
“Jackson, did you finish your Beta training?” The Alpha asks.
“Yes, Alpha. We finished the training a week after you left. I have been keeping up with my training and have no problem taking over the position of Beta.” Jackson answers.
Uncle Vaughn performs the same short Ceremony for the current Beta and it will be up to the Alpha to ask Darrion to hand it over to Jackson.
“Princess Dallas, Lilian would like to talk to you. I don’t believe she will break the connection immediately, but she might need someone to talk sense into her.” Darrion says as he walks into the room. It is clear to see that he has regained his Beta powers and I am glad we were able to right this wrong.
Now, I need to ensure that another wrong is overturned. It won’t be easy for me to convince Lilian, but I hope I can make her see that this happened for a reason.
I find Lilian not too far from the Pack–house and it is clear that she is at odds with her Shifter half. Lilian refuses to get used again, while her Shifter half wants to connect with her Mate. Our Shifter half is more levelheaded when it comes to our Mate or as I would say, they are more inclined to forgive.
Lilian rants about the events that led to her rejection and I listen as she gives me all the reasons to break her second connection.
“I have no idea what you went through. I never accepted the bond before I rejected my first connection, but I was hoping that it would take years for my second connection to come along. Alas, we don’t always get what we want.” I tell her.
After explaining why I believe her second connection is Jax’s younger Brother, I give her some time to think about it and ..ait for her response to my train of thought.
“I tried to find a reason for it myself, but couldn’t come up with one that made any sense to me.” Lilian finally says. “I like to think our Goddess is this involved, but I don’t like the suffering she put me through.”
Most Shifters who get rejected won’t understand why our Goddess would condone their misery, but I believe that there is a reason for everything. It might take some time to present itself or for the words of an outsider before anything makes sense.
After we talk about her choices a little longer, Lilian decides to give her second connection a chance. On our way to the Pack- house, I tell her about Jax and his title and what will happen to him his Mate and her family.
Most Pack–members have left the Pack–house and even Jax and his merry band of trouble are gone.

Samuel, I am willing to give this connection a chance. However, will be on my terms. First, you find another Gamma. Jax’z Gamma was as much a part of this as the rest of them and I don’t believe we should reward his actions.” Lilian says.
“Don’t worry, Lilian. King Vauglmi already took care of that, after your Father told us how they treated all of you.” Alpha Brody says and Lilian thanks Uncle Vaughn for doing his duties.
Samuel agrees to take it slow and to allow Lilian to rebuild the trust in the Alpha family that Jax destroyed.
