Pack Meeting Cont'd

Sweaty palms and with shaky breaths, Dahlia grabs the microphone to address the pack. "Good afternoon, I called this meeting because, we have quite a bit of information we feel is vital to share with the entire pack" Dahlia started the speech. "When I was summoned to Rome, we found out that my mother Emma had a spy; the Fae, Harper. It was uncovered that, my birth parent's; Genevieve and Sébastien, may have been influenced by dark magic which Ultimately caused their actions that created the blood feud" Dahlia continued on. "I was also given the ultimatum, that I need to find a mate. Exercising, my mourning rights, we have pushed it off until I turn 21. Lord Ulrich, has made claim, that if I do not find a mate and follow proper wolf, traditions and customs, I will be forced to concede, that Ravenwood lineage and Pack to the council" Dahlia said with trembling breaths, trying to hold back her tears. "What givens him the right to do that!" Someone's yells from the crowd. "Yeah! Who does he think he is!" Someone else yelled. "Ladies and Gentlemen, please, do not interrupt the Luna, while she is speaking. We will answer questions when the Luna is Finished..Dahlia, please continue" my father said, saving the day. "As I was saying, it was discovered, that Lord Ulrich, with the help of a witch, only known as BD, helped Ulrich to try and destroy, and defame our pack. We suspect he's up to no good and this is why this next part is important" Dahlia said with mire confidence. "I Luna, Dahlia Maeve Ravenwood, have found my mate. We have not personally met, he comes from the Blackwater Cresent Pack. I will hold a birthday and suitor ceremony on my 20th birthday, 8 months from now, to make an official claim. Finding my mate is a secret and it's vital we keep it a secret for the safety of both packs, as Lord Ulrich, has evil intentions. We are working hard to prevent any harm coming to the packs. Tobias, king of Vampires, is now our ally. He will be helping us, defeat the council, as he was wronged as well. I hereby make my official promise, that we will no longer be ruled by the council because we will bring back the kings and queens to rule our kind" Dahlia stated boldly. My father is working hard to keep Lord Blackwater, informed as well. Lastly, since things have the potential to become, dangerous and possibly fatal, I have decided to leave the Royal Ravenwood guards to protect, the pack within the water mirror, keeping Only Jackson by my side" Dahlia said finishing her speech. Dahlia, finished speaking and the pack looked shell shocked. I see a pack Elder raise their hand "Yes, what is it" Dahlia asked. "Do you have proof to back your claims?" They asked. "We discovered several written omissions of their guilt in writing" Dahlia stated. I see a young lady around my age raise her hand "Are the pups safe!" The young lady blurted out. "We will do everything we can to safeguard all of Ravenwood" Dahlia said. I see another pack elder raise their hand. I pointed a finger as I'd choosing them. "Did you say the conspirators initials were BD?" The elder asked. "Yes, we don't know their name. However, we know they're of witch blood and being blackmailed by Lord Ulrich" Dahlia stated. The pack elders were whispering to each other and another one spoke "If that's the case, the witch you seek Is Belladonna" they spoke. "Belladonna?" Dahlia said back. "That's the only witch to have those initials, and they were kicked from their coven, for tampering in the dark arts" The elder said. "Thank you, for the information, we will investigate further" Dahlia stated. "Are there anymore questions?" my father asked. The pack went silent. "Don't be shy" my father said. "How are you preparing?" Valentina asked. "Tobias is trying to make contact with the council's witch, she has proven moral and trustworthy. Harper, has instilled, Fae magic to reinforce tye water mirror and our Island protection spells. The soilders have made guard towers to watch approaches from the sea. I have also written Lord Blackwater, updating him on our circumstances" my father said. "Yes, well, I was wondering about the celebration. Who's planning that?" Valentina asked. "Ummm, well... we haven't made much progress on that one" my dad said with a nervous chuckle. "I see. Well, I will help" Valentina said. My dad nodded his head yes. "Any other questions?" my dad asked. The pack members looked back and forth and no one raised their hands, and some nodded their head no. "In that case, I declare our meeting over. We will have further meetings, so that everyone can be up to date" My father said. The pack were nodding their heads in compliance. "The Luna and myself. appreciate your time. We really must be going now" My father said. A round of applause broke out and almost in unison the pack started yelling "We love you Luna!" "We have faith in you!" "You should be queen of wolves!". The packs support gave Dahlia a new found sense of hope and confidence. Dahlia and her father walked down from the podium and the pack went crazy in cheer and whistles. There were even some whistles. Dahlia felt renewed and ready to take on anything.
