Billionaire Alpha's 99 Deadly Games

(0) Chapter 74 Chapter 74 I smiled and let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding.

"Thank God, cause we've already consummated our mating." I blurted out.

"What?" "Without notifying us first?" "How could you?" "Kyle, that's a blatant disrespect to the Council." And so they got their two cents worth in and voiced their disappointment with me, but they couldn't knock the grin and happiness off my face for anything. The only thing I had heard loud and clear, no intervention. There would be no consequences for going against protocol. As mom had said, what's done was done.

"I'm sorry," I said, not really sorry. "Two years I waited for any signs of reciprocation. I could not control myself once I knew she felt our connection too." "Speaking of connections. I think it is important to note that with the prolonged mating period of the two ca deeper connection faster than we are used to seeing in normal mated pairs." What was he doing? Dad had said not to tell anyone about that, so why was he blabbing now.

"They can already sense each other's feelings and general locations, sas other mated pairs in the two to five year stage. I've never seen anything like it, though they have spent every day for the last two years together and I believe on slevel their wolves began bonding even prior to the the mating consummation. Because of this I would petition the Council to consider lowering challenge time." Murmurs and shocked whispers began again.

"Sir, it's Kyle we're talking about. She-wolves from at least three packs, possibly further, will wish for the opportunity to challenge. And as you know, we've already had several inquiries into compatibility for Kelsey. It is possible Kyle could face a few challenges himself from within the pack." on Deadly Games 34.9% Chapter 74 "I am well aware of all of that, Neil, but we also must take into consideration that challenges are only accepted in the first four months to ensure bonding has not begun already, and clearly in this case it has. Do you know what it would do to my son if his one true mate were to die in challenge?" They all nodded solemnly.

"I'm sorry, Kyle," Ambrose started and I knew I wasn't going to be happy with what he was about to say, "but we can not wave the challenges. However, in light of the situation, I make the motion to lower it to only one month. With immediate notification, that is tfor anyone to arrive and make their wishes known and we will accept challenges in any manner, not just in person. I think it has to be that way to keep peace amongst the packs and give opportunity to those seeking it." The others nodded in agreement.

"I second that motion," Quinton piped in.

I rolled my neck, feeling the tension building. One month. Okay, we could handle one month.

"We must also ask that the two of you keep a distance from each other during this month to hopefully stall the bonding process you've already started. It's for the best, Kyle," Ambrose added.

"I'm sorry, sir, as I already told my father, that is not an option." The older man sighed and nodded in acknowledgment.

"So, all that's left is to set a date of notification." "The sooner the better, sir," I told them just wanting it all passed us. "Sunday. There's already a pack meeting being held. Announcements to the other packs can be emailed on Monday to expedite. The sooner this is all over, the better." "That soon? You're certain the girl will be ready?" "Kelsey may not have been raised in a pack, sir, but she's a fighter, she's super fast, and I have full confidence in my mate." "Sunday it is then." "Thank you." I stood and shook hands with each of them thanking them for their tbefore leaving.

The weight of the world seemed to be holdingdowryas abead to the e thought to the next month. I was 11-mos 35.1% Chapter 74 confident I could hold my own in any fight, and even more confident that few, if any, would dare to challenge me. But Kelsey? Could I just stand there and watch her fight to the death, for me? Kelsey My biggest concern of the day was Elise and Lily. They had said don't let anyone get too close because they could smell Kyle's scent mixed with mine, but I was supposed to ride hwith Elise, so did she know already? If not, surely, she would once in the car alone with me.

Lily had the bigger mouth of the two, though, and was more likely to pick it up in the office. So all afternoon I listened for the clacking of heels in the hallway, unable to concentrate on anything remotely considered work.

When I finally did hear the click-click-clicking of heels in the hallway, I immediately grabbed the phone and began talking into it. I motioned to it and waved Lily off. I knew it wouldn't keep her away, but it was the best I could do. Three times this occurred and each tstressedout even more.

I decided to retreat into Kyle's office during the afternoon break. Lying down on his couch, surrounded by his smell helped calma little. When Lily barged into his office with that 'ah-ha, I found you' look on her face, I cursed myself for not thinking of locking the doors.
