Phoenix the Rising Alpha

67

Jackson's POV:

I was surprised to see a few Elders walk into the meeting room following all the others that had planned to attend, especially since Laurent vowed to never allow them in or around his pack ever again especially after Larry had been wolfnapped and they stood by and did nothing, but sent some of the supernatural council to 'help'. I guess I was just stunned to see them and more importantly surprised that Laurent had allowed an Elder on his pack land, but considering that the Royals had promised to replace them after their thorough investigation to prove that some of the older Elders along with most of the supernatural council had been ignoring their duties and had been taking bribes and favor from some of the corrupted Alphas, they must have truly got rid of the corrupted as promised. I, being the Queen of the Vampies, had gotten rid of those that sat on the supernatural council representing the vampire community.  I wasn't sure if they were in anyone's pocket, but Egon and I could not take that chance.

Anyways after eyeing the Elders that walked in, I looked towards Phoenix, who was already looking at me and nodded.  He must have known they were coming, and Laurent had allowed them on his pack land.

Then again, thinking of Laurent and how he is, how his personality truly is, he is one of those very rare Alphas who held his patience and waited for what had to be done, done. So, thinking of that I watched as the Elders slowly closed the door behind them and sat in a couple chairs next to the large meeting table that the others had already sat around.

I actually wanted to ask Phoenix why they were here, but after his nod, I chose not to because this meeting needed to get over with so that Phoenix and I can proceed with our planned torture.

After the Elders had sat down I turned towards Phoenix and waited for him to start the meeting, but I kept my attention on the Elders. Yes the Royals may have eliminated the corrupted supernatural council and the corrupted Elders, but that did not mean the one's that replaced them were not just as corrupted.  I sighed trying to focus on what Phoenix was saying, yet my mind kept drifting back to the dark period of my life where I almost lost a close friend even after he ax resued because of some stupid old beliefs that certain supernatural creature's still tried to rule by.

"Isn't that right, Uncle Jackson". I heard Phoenix ask me bringing me out of my dark memories.  Fir a moment I was speechless because I didn't hear anything he had said, but after a few moments I wholeheartedly agreed and nodded my head towards everyone in the meeting room.

'I have a question'. A werewolf I had never seen before said, both Phoenix and I nodded our head encouraging for him to continue, and he did.

'What if do not agree with the witches being tortured before their deaths'? He asked and for a moment I was shocked and speechless, unable to find the right words to speak, after all Phoenix had already explained why those two witches deserved to be tortured and tormented every day until he was satisfied and allowed them their deaths. While I was trying to find the right words, Phoenix had already spoke reexplaining what he just explained.

I sighed once again and stared at the Elders once again.  To my surprise they looked horrified as Phoenix started to reexplain things once again only this time with much more graphic details. I heard gasps and watched as all the supernatural creatures (that had decided to attend the meeting) faces turn different shades of white. I smiled at the Elders shocked faces when Phoenix mentioned how back when Larry was wolfnapped and none of the supernatural council nor the Elders truly help and how because of all the 'rules' set by the Elders, his father Alpha Laurent was not able to burn the body if the witch that is currently in his dungeon so she was able to reconnect with her soul and continued her rampage by destroying lives of those who git in her way and how her daughter, the fake daughter of the sunshine pack was just as evil as she was.

'I have a question'. Another wolf asked. 

"Go ahead". Phoenix said.

'Why, is their Elders here'? The wolf asked the question I had been wondering ever since they had walked into the room. I waited for Phoenix answer which stunned and shocked me with his explanation.

"My father, Alpha Laurent allowed them to come, to have a better idea of one: why he does not like them or the supernatural council and for two: because the Royals had replaced them all including the corrupted supernatural council, members he wanted to see how the new members would react to the punishment laid out for the two witches in the dungeons". Phoenix calmly explained. To be honest I was stunned, but I guess I shouldn't have been. Laurent has always been a thinker, that's what makes him a very rare Alpha.

"Any more questions"? Phoenix asked. Looking around the meeting room and seeing no one wanted to ask any more questions Phoenix dismissed everyone and we headed towards the dungeons.

I was happy after Phoenix explained that starting today was their first day of torture and that I along with him will be in charge of their torture and that no one not even the Elders are allowed to step in and try to stop him from eradicate them when he felt satisfied.  

"Ready"? Phoenix asked me as we walked towards the dungeon. I nodded not saying anything he knew I was ready. These two witches have been a sore spot and a thorn in my families and loved one's lives for way to long and I was ready to give their own taste of their long-awaited medicine. I wasn't sure if I would bring out my dark side or just simple play with them till, I was satisfied.

"Let the games begin". Phoenix said smiling happily the moment we reached their cells. I smiled back at him and enter the youngest witches' cell while Phoenix entered her mother's cell/ We had agreed that we would switch off daily so these two wouldn't know what was in store for them.
