Chapter 164
I didn’t realize that everyone was staring at me until I disconnected the call. I turned back to everyone and just huffed out a breath. “Keep checking everyone in.”
“It’s too late.” Wendy was almost in tears.
“No. This king will handle it.” I was certain of that,
“Are you sure?” Hanna grabbed my hand and I nodded.
“I am.” So we all turned back and kept checking people in.
“Alpha Amy?” Someone we checked in called back to us.
“Yes,”
“The doors are locked.” Everyone froze and then one girl started to sob.
“Please. Everyone.” I raised my hands, waving the tablet in my hand. “I swear to you that you will not be expelled.”
“You can’t promise that.” Someone called out, and the room erupted in to crying.
“Listen.” I raised my hands. “There is very little I promise as I can never guarantee the future. But I swear to you that no one will be expelled.‘
Toya stepped up next to me. “Amy is correct. We won’t allow this to go unchecked.” Toya shook her head.
We finished checking everyone in and we waited. I went to the door and I pounded on it. Then waited some more. I then called my father. “Daddy?”
“Hey pup. What’s wrong?”
“Vince.” It was my only answer before his growl sounded loudly through the speaker.
“What has he done?”
“Expelled me. Well, me and about a hundred and fifty others. He targeted unranked wolves. I called Rowan and I know he is handling it, but I was hoping you can put some pressure ion the council.”
“What do you mean?”
“Toya daughter of the…” I trailed off and looked to her and she smiled.
“Lightstone pack.”
“Toya, the daughter of the Lightstone alpha, has also been expelled because of his idiotic rules. Can you call the council and threaten to pull funding from the school and also the council?”
I heard an intake of breath. But my father howled in laughter. “Smart pup. Smart.” I heard him pick up the office phone. He was silent for a few seconds before he called out Council member Alpha Theo, please.” There was another break as I waited to hear anything. “Councilman Theo, thank you for taking my call. Yes, yes, you are very welcome for the funding I sent for the third quarter. That is exactly one reason I called.” There was a pause with a muffled voice on the other line.
‘Daddy, I can’t hear.” There was a click and the councilman’s voice came from the speaker.
“What can I help you with, Alpha Gavin?”

“I heard the council and the king are at Lycus University today to deliver the information that the alphas have decided upon.”
“Yes, we are. The assembly is about to start.”
“Well, it better not start until all the students are accounted for.” There was a threat in my father’s voice. And I heard the man gulp.
“What ever do you mean?”
“Do not play dumb Theo. I know there are over a hundred and fifty kids that are outside the auditorium. I also know Vince threatened to expel them.”
“Gavin…its isn’t like that. They were given a timeline.”
“I’m going to make this fucking simple, Theo. Open those fucking doors or I pull all of my funding. The funding for the school, for the council, and all the bullshit I support
“You can’t mean that…”
“Oh I do.” My father’s voice dropped low. “My daughter is out there and so is the daughter or the Lightstone pack.”
“They were supposed to be inside.”
My father paused and his voice dropped even lower. “I’m going to make this very simple, Theo. I know you aren’t dumb enough to work with Vince to expel unranked wolves because of your fucking prejudice. I know you aren’t stupid enough to lose the four point seven billion dollars I donate per year. And I know you aren’t dumb enough to be moving against the Lycan king behind our backs.” The line grew silent,
“The king just came into the room. I have to go.” But before he could hang up the phone, I heard Rowan’s voice boom
“What the fuck do you think you are doing here? Get those fucking doors open now before I kill every one of you for treason and rebellion.” There were gasps around the room and someone started stammering. “You do not get to expel anyone from this school. You are the fucking dean that oversees the every day happenings around here but the decisions are mine to make and mine alone.” Then there was a sound as if his hands were hitting the table. “Now let me remind you that you are my council, but you do not fucking make decisions either. You council me, but again I decide. What you are doing is treason and I will handle it as I see fit, unless you fucking open doors and let those wolves in.” His voice dropped lower. “Now.”
