The Alpha's Other Woman by Vielle Nye (best fiction books of all time .txt) 📖

I didn't look at Asshole Dane, but I knew that as one of the twin packs, he was more than well aware of the fact. Maybe I should have tried to be more diplomatic when I met him the previous day, but smirking and getting Carrie away from him had been about the best that I could do under the circumstances with my agitated wolf howling for justice.

Alpha King, who had returned to his seat, had an obviously clenched jaw, but didn't respond and we moved onto the next matter at hand, the allegations that Glenshadow was intended to be a front for a rogue army, or some other such nonsense.

Apparently the alphas were taking it seriously, however, because they debated back and forth while I waited for my turn to speak. I could feel Carrie's irritation with the spurious arguments as clearly as my own.

"While there are a number of former rogues making up the beginning of our pack, the people we're taking in are not looking for a war, they're looking for a pack that they can be a part of. They left their packs for non-violent reasons, and have been barred from rejoining other packs due to pack prejudice against rogues. Most of their crimes were not worthy of being expelled entirely from werewolf society, and yet being banished was the equivalent of a slow isolated death sentence for most.”

"We have no intention of knowingly harbor dangerous criminals, we're peaceful disenfranchised werewolves seeking to assist other people in the same position as we find ourselves."

Once I was done speaking, Alpha King took another stab at trying to make Glenshadow look dangerous, but really only succeeded at making himself look like a whiny coward.

I had to hold myself back from laughing at him, until the moment I wanted to murder him in cold blood in front of a room full of witnesses.

"Mark my words, these are exactly the sort of wolves we don't want grouping and gaining power. They're unfit to be a part of a pack. And if you need more evidence of that, the new luna of this dangerous pack is little better than a status hunting whore. She couldn't bag a proper alpha, so now she's slumming it with the rogues."
