Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 109

She slowly unwrapped her arms from her head and looked at her left arm in shock, tiny drops of blood began to

gather down the length of her appendage, and she quickly began to pick the little imbedded transparent pieces

out of her flesh.

“You are tr

are trying my last nerve, mate. One more outburst from you and you'll be spending the remainder of our time

here, in the pack’s dungeon.” She rolled her eyes at his words while continuing to pick the glass out of her

wound, however | did notice the slight tense in her body.

“Our dungeon, your grace, is currently full.” Alpha Adrian stated meeting the kings eyes before subtly grasping

hold of his mate Jaha’s hand. | only noticed the action myself because | was seated next to his opposite side.

“If that is the case then perhaps a public execution is overdue.” The newly appointed Gamma, Warren stated, we

leamt about him in school the week before the kings arrival, he was new to the role and we were told to

memorize everything we could about him. Luckily the old Gamma was promoted to beta, so most of the districts

already knew of him and his background. Of course being the kings main envoy the entire world would know bits

about them, but not anything truly personal. No one knew what had happened to the old beta, or why he was

suddenly replaced, but no one questioned it, despite all our curiosities about it.

“Perhaps you are right, your grace, especially if you wish to use the dungeon, | assure you everything in our fine

district is yours.” Adrian's dad spoke sparing a single glance at the boy sat next to me.

The atmosphere was beginning to thickens, which Arya knew full well, it had been months since I'd moved into

this house, and one thing that | was certain of since the move was that Adrian hated his father.

“I'll take Queen Dylan to get cleaned up, and | assure you, your grace | will help her choose a beautiful gown for

your announcement.” Arya spoke respectfully, trying to ease the growing tension between alpha and son. This

was often the case. Being mated to Arya meant that | got an inside look into the lives of our district leaders, both

current and future. Both Aryas father and the king were just as unhinged as each other. King Josh performed a

simple nod of his head, as Arya stood and gestured over to Dylan, who begrudgingly stood up. “Jana, why don’t

you cand help, it'll be good to have two sets of opinions.”

| watched Dylan groan unintentionally as Jana jump up and slipped her arm into Aryas. They were going to be

sister in laws soon, so my smile was permanent as | watched the girls walk away.

“So What is this announcement about, father?!” The current alpha shook his head at his sons words and

shrugged.

“Oh? Welland his grace have been rejiggering the educational curriculum, and we're have been extremely

lucky as the king has agreed to allow us to be the trial run” He deliberately didn’t give anything away to Arian as

he spoke, tiptoeing and sliding around the question in order to doge it.

“We're going to abolish it... the king spoke his voice slightly risen in question. “I am aware that the rebels in the

west have grown in number tically. Due to this we have simply concluded that humans do not need

education to be useful to us. All the knowledge provided to you, is simply unnecessary, so we have taken it away

in its entirety.” He held a smug grin as he looked at everyone around the table still and chuckled. “A human

cannot rebel if it’s never taught the skills needed to do so.”

Oh my god, | can’t believe his intentions are to take away our rights entirely.

xcellent choice, Miss Arya.” Arya must have received an order to give Dylan something that showed the

permanent marks of her injuries, she would ver have chosen something like that otherwise, I'm sure of it, she

the queen, had to leave before any of us did.

The press was gathered towards the middle, so they were centre to everyone who attended, they had both large

camera and shrugged his shoulders at the reporter and spoke quietly back, although I could still hear him rather

clearly, so i suppose it wasn't all that quiet.

The humans however, were crammed into a small space on the left hand side that was being monitored by the

My eyes glided over the humans before they stopped on a familiar figure. My dad was stood watching me
