Intro

Jayla was sitting in her office when her phone rang. She answered. “Hello?” Her father’s voice came through immediately. “Jayla, we have a problem.” She straightened. “What happened?” “Someone filed a petition to remove Kaiden from the Alpha King position.” Jayla went completely still. “They’re trying to do what?” “They claim he violated royal succession law.” Jayla slowly stood from her chair. “Who filed it?” “Three council members and two rival Alphas.” Jayla grabbed her tablet. “Send me the petition.” “Already did.” Her screen lit up. Jayla opened the document and started reading. Her expression changed. “They’re lying.” Her father went quiet. “You sure?” “Completely. They’re using an outdated version of the royal law.” Jayla immediately began making calls. “Get the family lawyers.” Her father chuckled. “Already calling them.” “No. Get all of them.” “Jayla—” “Also call Grandma. I want the original royal archives. Not copies.” “You think there’s something in there?” “I know there is.” She ended the call and immediately dialed another number. “Mom?” “Yes, sweetheart?” “Someone is trying to remove Kaiden from the throne.” There was silence. Then Elena’s voice became serious. “Who?” Jayla smiled coldly. “That’s what I’m going to find out.” Another call came through. Kaiden. She answered. “Jayla.” “I heard.” “You did?” “Your father called me.” Kaiden sighed. “I don’t want you dragged into this.” Jayla laughed. “Dragged into this?” She picked up the stack of documents beside her. “Kaiden, I’m the daughter of an Alpha, the Moon Wolf, and your mate. You really thought I was going to sit at home while somebody tried to steal your crown?” “Jayla—” “No.” She grabbed her coat. “I’m coming to the royal council meeting.” “Jayla, you don’t have to fight this battle for me.” Her voice softened. “I’m not fighting it for you.” A pause. “I’m fighting it with you.” Kaiden smiled on the other end. “Then I’ll see you at the council.” Jayla ended the call and looked at her team. “Everybody knows what we’re doing.” Her lawyer nodded. “We’re proving the petition is invalid.” Jayla picked up the ancient law book. “No.” She looked toward the door. “We’re proving they never had the legal authority to challenge him in the first place.” The room went silent. Jayla smiled. “Let’s go protect our Alpha King.”
