Chapter 30: Witch Scent

Hailey’s POV

A sigh of relief escapes my lips as I see that the council has decided to listen to Owen's opinion, pausing their attempts at war, at least for the time being. This hope is all we can hold on to for now.

I raise my face in time to see his expression, but I know from the look on his eyes that although he is rejoicing in victory, it is only for a moment, as he cannot ignore the fact that much of the council is now opposed to him.

I don't know how, but apparently Angus has been changing their minds one by one and the way things are looking, if this perspective continues, we could be facing a serious problem in a very short time.

Slowly the discussion is picking up again but some of the tension seems to have faded. Some of the Alphas are interested in my version of what happened last night, so I tell them what happened. Owen then proceeds with Sebastian and Patrick to explain how they found the attackers and what they told them during the night.
