The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 355

I could swear that I heard some people call me the Dark Alpha.

My pack was the Dark Wolf Pack, but I knew what they meant by the Dark Alpha.

It was usual for the council to present the matter in the worst way possible to hold on to their power.

Every alpha from the packs in all the regions was present. They must have all flown in last night. Even Kyle and Max were in attendance.

When we entered the council, it was a full house. Everyone was in their seats. I looked at the empty Balyaev seat and smiled internally.

Marcel, Theodore, I and our mates proceeded to our box. Everyone went to their seats.

Leo, Devin, Christian and Sean were seated in their section.

Sean was the top leader of the west but not the head Leader because my father ensured the west would not have a head leader. So Sean occupied the western head leader's seat.

It was clear the council had bumped him up without my consent. Looking at the mix, I was bound to lose.

Leo was my mate's ex-husband; he was meant to hate me for attacking his territory and taking his mate from him.

Devin and I had the worst history possible, first with my father and then with me. There was also a pending war between us.

Christian had raised a petition to remove me from office. He must have had his reasons.

All of them had a reason not to install me as King. Because even though they wrote a letter requesting a king, they needed to be more specific. It could be anyone.

After we were all seated, Dominic strolled to the Balyaev seat, and everyone was shocked.

Larry stood up immediately to speak. He always liked to say something whenever Dominic was concerned. As my father's friend, I must say he preferred Dominic to me.

"Sir Dominic, you should be in the lords' loge, not here with us. You are part of this too," he told Dominic, letting him know he could get something tonight, perhaps a promotion.

"Thank you, Councilman Larry. But today, I am representing my maternal family, the Belyaevs, and I will be temporarily heading this council," he said, which was a no-brainer.

The Belyaev family was the original head of the council until my mother cut a deal with Jenny and Louis.

"That chair is dormant, and you are a Volkov," Lucas Vanhill said.

"I am also a Balyeav. Since my brother is the Lord, I am the only one to represent my mother's family unless we ask her to come and represent her family herself," Dominic said, sounding a bit impatient, and they were silent.

"Not necessary, but there are certain documents to sign before you can head the council, Sir Dominic. It is the law. Your father made that seat vacant by refusing to let your mother ascend the seat. It is okay if you want to assume the responsibility, but there are documents to sign to put that into action. Vino Lawrence will head this one at least for today until all necessary measures are taken," Joan said cautiously.

"Very well, I still represent the Balyeavs in all matters. Should there be a need for a vote, I would carry the Balyeav vote," Dominic said; they could not dispute that, so they were silent. It was now time for the back and forth to begin.

***Hello, my darling readers and Co-writers. I hope the story is coming along well. I will give away souvenirs to five people every month throughout this year starting from this month. I am grateful for the support and would like to show my appreciation. I wish I could give everyone something. Please do not be offended if I do not select you. It is not because I think less of you; it is because I am too broke to give to everyone. I will think of something digital soon, like gift cards that I can share with more people that will be cost-effective. I will select you through the comment section of my books on GN and post the chosen people every month on my social media. I love you all.***
