Enjoy folks! (Evil laugh)

Chapter 20

"Roma!" The members of the council gasped in shock as she and Sebastian entered the chamber where the World Council was in session.

The did a double take at their state, her clothes torn , blood caked on the side of her forehead, she no wonder looked terrible.

She raised her hand as she stood in the center of the room.

"I am fine, thanks for your concern. I believe a few elements figured out it was in their best interest if I never showed up to the council meeting." She said "Unluckily for them, I survived their assassination attempt."

"Preposterous!" Lockbourne bit back "Everyone knows these are neutral grounds, no werewolf would dare to break the peace in Ontario.

"The dead folks in the highway apparently didn't get the memo" Sebastian quipped in his signature dry humor.

"We promise to have this thoroughly investigated" Australia vowed.

"Roma, please take a seat" The Russian Alpha said kindly.

She moved over to take the empty chair while Sebastian stood a few feet behind her against the wall. She was flanked by Asia and Africa and on the opposite side of the table were America, Australia and Russia.

"I am sorry to inform that I don't put my faith in this institution anymore" Roma said, responding to Australia's earlier promise.

"Yes, I am sure" Lockbourne interjected sarcastically "Shall we get back to the point of this meeting then?" he asked sounding bored.

Roma raised one of her eyebrows "Which is?"

"Returning Colorado back to the American Council to whom it rightfully belongs." He said.

"I see" was all she said and then looked at the other two alphas across the table "What do you think?" she asked them.

"We only hope to find an amicable solution to the escalating tension between Roma and America, further violence would not serve anyone's interest here and if that is the best solution so be it" Australia responded and Russia just kept quite closely observing her.

"I see" Roma said again. "What about justice?" she asked.

The alphas looked at her confusingly.

"My family has been attacked multiple times...Maxim Roma assassinated, the previous Roma killed in attack, my parents killed by American wolves. My mate is in a coma, fighting for his life. Where is the justice for this?" She demanded.

"Roma" Australia said calmly "Both sides lost people, It would be better if we don't get in to reason and instead look forward for an solution which is in everyone's interest and also What do the American wolves have to do with Maxim's death or attack on your mate?" Australia asked.

Roma looked at Lockbourne with a piercing glance "Do you want to tell then?" she asked as all the alphas looked between the two confused.

"What nonsense are you talking about girl?" Lockbourne spat. How dare this eighteen year girl throw accusations at him in front of this council? He seethed. If she was anybody else he would have crushed her neck by now.

"Roma" Evelyn said in a calm tone "Don't forget titles alpha" She said.

"Listen, the council is not interested in your wild allegations and that will not deter us from our agenda today" Lockbourne said looking around the table.
