Shifted Fate Novel

Chapter Fifty Four Chapter Fifty Four The Agora was breathtaking .

The clearing looked like a natural stone quarry , if that made any sense .

Rocks were staggered down toward the lower floor , like steps , and it was already filling up with the pack .

There was a path that circled down the side wall of the crater until it ended at the bottom , where a chair , or should I say , a throne , waited .

There was a smaller one to the side , which I could only assume it was for the Alpha and Luna As I stepped down with my father , I could feel the truth settle in my bones .

This was the birthplace of our kind .

You could feel the ancient roots here wrap around you .

The trees bowed outward , allowing the sun and moon to shine down on the people collected here .

This was where fates were decided .

My father and I reached the bottom , and he gestured me to sit in the lunas chair and I nodded .

I settled and my father walked to the floor as everyone filed in .

You could see the wolves that knew the truth of this place fill with a sense of pride .

And those that werent privy to the knowledge settle , but tremble with the power that was wrapped around them .

Everyone was whispering and my father raised his hands , quieting everyone down .

File in , find a seat .

Alpha ? What is this about ? A wolf called down from the back row .

I looked to see who it was , but I missed them .

I will answer all of your questions .

But settle .

Please .

My father waited for a few minutes .

He turned to me and then nodded .

He settled into his throne and raised his hands again .

The Agora went silent .

I called you all here for a specific reason .

I need the Williams family to step down .

My father called out coldly .

We sat as Amanda and her family slowly walked to the pathway and headed down to the ground .

They made their way in front of us and bowed .

Alpha ? Why have you called my family down here ? Jay Williams , Amandas father , asked .

I scoffed as 1 glared at Amanda .

Do you feign ignorance as well , Amanda ? Jay snapped his eyes to his daughter and then to me .

Amy dont know what my daughter has done , but I swear I knew nothing about it .

Jay turned on Amanda .

What the fuck did you do ? Nothing ! she screamed and dropped to the ground .

Alpha , whatever was said about me was a lie .

My dad stood and walked over to her , crouching and lifting her face .

Are you calling my daughter a liar ? Tears fell from her eyes as she darted her eyes to look at me and then back to my father .

No Alpha , So you admit to using your aura to make weaker wolves do your bidding with the she wolves in your friends group ? Jay and his wife , Sheila , drew in a breath , obviously hearing this for the first time .

My father looked back at me as I stared at the pair .

They didnt know .

Nixs voice rang through my head .

How are you so sure ? I whispered back .

I commanded their wolves to tell me .

Nix growled back and felt her slam my aura out .

The Williams all dropped to their knees and Jay bowed down to the ground .

Did you know ? No Alpha .

Jays voice trembled out as I released my aura allowing them up .

I looked at my father and nodded .

Amanda ? They didnt know .

My father would have punished me .

She whispered and Nix growled lowly , black fur rippled Chapter Filly Four down my arms .

I swear it .

Amanda screamed as she looked at me .

They did not know .

Louder this time .

Who did ? I growled out .

I fought to control my anger , but something in the Agora was making it almost impossible to control myself or my wolves .

I closed my eyes to refocus , and Nix and Megan were trembling .

Whats wrong ? The Agora is a place of power , and it is pulling us to come forward , to bond fully , to shift .

Nixs voice was ragged with her effort to stay back .

You will have to shift .

Megan panted .

It has to be Nix , or else I will be forced to shift .

She needs to stop fighting .

Soon .

Or else we wont have the choice of who comes forward .

Okay .

I shook my head , trying to clear it .

My father looked back at me , and there was concern in his eyes .

The fur pulled back a little as I reined it in .

I glared down at Amanda and stood .

I stalked down to her with my fur rippling with my anger .

Who did Amanda ? Amanda shook as she tried to fight against the aura that was leaking out , but she failed .

Aurora .

Jay and Sheila drew in another breath .

Amanda , why ?
