Claimed By The Lycan King (Kaia) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49

Kieran's POV

Being away from Kaia was killing me, I missed everything about her even though I got to see her at night. But something felt off last night, she'd even blocked me out of her thoughts, confirming my fears.

The meeting I was having with the elder turned out to be completely different from what I planned for.

Turns out Ida's father was connected to one of the elders and he called in a favor. But I already expected that. But showing up and seeing my mother, who I thought had given up seated there, was unexpected and disappointing.

“And Alpha," Caleb called, and my head jerked upward.

We were waiting for the meeting to start, but the dickheads were taking their sweet time. I was so close to dragging their asses out of their inner chambers and shoving my decision down their throats.

“I forgot to mention, there's something about the Luna that doesn't add up.”

I raised my brow, “did he also notice it?" I thought, but that didn't make sense since he'd not seen her for the past few days.

My curiosity piqued, “what is it?"

“Luna said she was an omega right?" He asked, “but that day outside your office, I could swear she used a tone just like your Alpha command and both Ryder and I couldn't refuse.”

I smiled, “that's my girl."

"Not the reaction I was going for, but that works too.” Caleb said. "What do you think about it?”

I shrugged, "it's expected, she's wearing my mark. She would also possess almost the same authority I have.”

He didn't look convinced, but before he could voice it out, someone came in that the meeting was starting immediately, but I made a mental note to ask him about it when we were done.

We followed the secretary, who led us to where the meeting was going to be held. As we entered the room, whatever conversation they were having ceased as their eyes turned to us.

The room was brightly lit, as sunlight streamed in through the large window. The air was thick and it smelled of old wood which made sense since the building has been in existence for many years.

The Elders were seated around a large table, and my mom was at the head of the table, my eyes not leaving mine. Their expressions didn't give anything away and I didn't bother trying to guess.

I took my seat at the table and Caleb sat beside me.

“The meeting is starting now," one of the Elders announced, and all of them sat upright. I heard King snicker.

They were acting like I would blindly follow whatever decision they made. This was supposed to be that last meeting after going at it for more than a week.

It first started with ‘unfair’ punishment of a pack member. And then my Luna being too unfit to rule the pack. And I spent more time trying to keep King in place than in the actual meeting.

“This court has decided that Kaia Riven is unfit and henceforth, Laura Zane will now be recognized as the Luna of the Moonstone Pack.” He announced, hitting the gravel.

My mom's smile widened, as she clapped loudly. "You have made the right decision, the Pack will become even better in the future under her reign.”

King growled loudly in my head, "who do they think they are to decide that? Let me out so I can teach them a lesson.” He commanded.

"Based on what grounds is she considered unfit?” I started, my voice sounding calm.

They looked at each other, and then back at me. “You clearly don't respect us " The spat.

“She's an omega and a rogue–”
