Chapter 113 Whispers Of Justice

• BRIANA
• Sitting alone in my office, I rested a hand on my stomach and read through the Council’s reports for the third time this morning. The words blurred together, but the meaning still hit hard each time I reached the end. The investigation into Norman Joss, Marcus, and Laura Joss had taken a direction I never expected, and I wasn’t sure how to feel about it. Laura was indeed pregnant, and Marcus was confirmed to be the father—but that wasn’t the worst part. The most shocking revelation was that Norman was now on his fifth mate. He had killed his fourth—the same she-wolf who had once rejected Milan.
• A sigh escaped me as I leaned back in my chair. It felt like every new discovery added another layer to the tangled web of betrayal our enemies had built. Earlier this morning, Natty had called to say he couldn’t reach Linda, but he wanted me to know he was only a few hours away from returning to the pack. He also mentioned that the wolves from Harvest Willow had agreed to speak with our Council Representative, Amos Carter. After ending the call, I immediately sent Amos an email to confirm the meeting. He suggested the discussion take place in a week’s time—coinciding with his next visit when he would bring the thirty new recruits on the Council’s approval list to settle with us.
