Chapter 155 Landon

• We reached the packhouse and it was sheer bedlam. A packhouse I was more than familiar with, but never in all my visits had I seen it in such chaos. The Alpha family descended upon the lounge in which we were seated, demanding answers, until they realized we had been escorted here with the Werewolf Council. I think at first glance they believed that River Ash and Midnight Forest had invaded their pack.
• The moment they heard what had happened, and the potential trouble they found themselves in, they were suddenly less argumentative, and more cooperative with the Council members. I hung back, knowing these people had been extremely welcoming to me in the past, and I did not want them to feel I had thrown that back in their face; yet I knew this issue needed dealing with appropriately and punishment should be given.
• But, I still found myself shocked as the Alpha was injected with wolfsbane to put his wolf out of action, especially when he had not even attempted to fight back. Although, I suppose you could never know with him. He was unpredictable. I think we knew that. That was what found us here. The Council were not ready to risk anything. But it was quite chilling to watch a man I have only known as powerful to be so silent. So vulnerable. I think he knew he was in trouble. I found myself turning away.
