Beta Stones nodded at her, the rest had their ears open to listen.
Taking hold of Lilian's hand, Diana stared straight at Aiden. 'Since you already know my identity, you might as well know that Lilian here is my cousin."
Aiden's head ached badly again, 'I am not surprised."
'And to everyone here, I have an ability." She paused.
'An ability of mind manipulation." She declared, expecting to see a look of surprise on their faces, but they gave out none.
'What's yours?" Beta Stone turned to his son who had his eyes closed and was panting, his face full of sweat.
Aiden opened his already red eyes and looked at his father. 'Mine?" He smiled, showcasing his now blackened teeth from blood.
'I slept with a lady." He declared proudly.
Everyone had the same confused and irritated expression except Diana. Seeing her anger rising, he chuckled and kept quiet.
'How is your personal life our concern?" Lilian asked, her face squeezing itself.
'Maybe not yours."
'Stop all these games and get straight to the point." Beta Stone got serious at once, he had no time to waste.
'You slept with Moon, didn't you?" Diana's breath quickened.
'I kissed Moon, she is too precious to be fucked around," Aiden said what he said, secretly hoping to get beaten to death by his father.
At least, he won't get to be bound to Diana forever. He wouldn't get to be anyone's puppet anymore or watch Moon get mated to Liam, only to go through the torture of tearing her away from him.
'Stop thinking about the damned idiot!!" Diana suddenly yelled, startling everyone.
Oh! He forgot she had access to his thoughts.
‘You are welcome to stay in my head.' He thought boldly, his eyes challenging her.
'I got fucked by one of the senior guards of the Bloodmoon pack." He declared, laughing like a maniac.
Everyone froze in their pose, it felt like time got frozen too except Aiden kept laughing like he had a few nuts loosed in his head. He laughed till he fell to the floor.
Maybe he wouldn't get to die by his father's hand, maybe he would be killed by his laughter.
Diana's hands were trembling as she watched Aiden lose his senses.
'What did you do to him!?" She rushed at the shocked Beta who only stretched his hand to hold her in place.
Beta Stone looked at his lost son in confusion. Did he hit too hard?
'I think you should sit back Diana." Lilian held her before leading her back to the chair she stood up from.
'She fucks so well." Aiden continued after he had calmed down, his gaze not leaving the high ceiling of the courtroom.
As if the tension was cut into by a sharp scissor, everyone let out a sigh of relief; at least it was a ‘she' and not a ‘he.'
Beta Stone, who somehow understood what his son meant, began to boil.
'Did you say you got fucked? You didn't fuck but got fucked?" Ria asked to confirm.
'Exactly." Aiden unknowingly worsened his father's mood, but Diana was not left out.
'I did it for Moon." He finally rubbed in the last salt into the open injury he just caused.
'You are so fucked up Man," Lilian commented, holding Diana in place.
'Stones, don't," Ria said in time, stopping her husband from doing what he had in mind.
'Else you want to be without a son." She added and he kicked the chair instead.
'I refuse to be mated to Diana. I will never be mated to Diana." Aiden continued; this time, he was babbling.
'You either find a way to stop him or I will do it myself." Beta Stones told his mate, his eyes were fierce.
'We prepared for this," Mateo replied, stretched his hand towards Lilian, and she gave him something in black leather.
'If that will be harmful to his health, I'd rather you don't do it," Ria said.
Nova almost scoffed at her. ‘as if.' She had her son beaten up so badly to the point of death but complained about a powdery substance from someone else.
‘What a hypocrite.' She thought, secretly eyeing the sophisticated Ria.
'It won't," Mateo replied and got the go-ahead.
He looked at Diana, who sat still in her seat, and assumed she had no problem administering the substance to him.
Mateo took a new handkerchief from Nova, poured the powdery substance on it, and approached Aiden, who kept rambling on.
'She is a control freak and nothing to write home about…"
He pressed it against his nose, and Aiden, who had no strength left to resist him closed his eyes in sleep.
'We take him to Alpha Victor tonight."
'What?" Ria looked at her mate.
Diana and Nova were equally shocked.
'What?" Beta Stones questioned their shocked stares.
'If we need to get you both mated, it won't be here."
'But…"
'I'll carry him myself." Beta Stones said and proceeded to carry Aiden on his shoulder.
Mateo rushed towards the double door and opened it himself automatically leading them out, ignoring the questioning stares from everyone.
Boldly stopping by the gate, Ria told the guard. 'My son is in a near-death situation, and we urgently need a solution. Open the gate."
Looking at the stern and strained face of the Beta, he had no other option than to open the gate while signaling to his companion to report to the Alpha.
Stepping outside the gate, Lilian stopped them. 'I will get us there safely, come closer."
When they got closer, she walked around them, drawing a circle on the ground with her legs. Immediately the end of the circle touched each other, a white hue enveloped them and the scenery changed.
They were no longer standing outside the Pack's gate but in Alpha Victor's courtroom, with his fierce yellow eyes staring at them in annoyance.
'To what do I owe this surprise visit?" His guttural voice asked.
He sat shirtless on his throne showcasing his body full of tattoos while scowling at them.
'That isn't my boy. Whose son is he?" Alpha Victor asked uninterestedly, his eyes flickering to that of his daughter.
'Mine." Beta Stone stepped forward, placing Aiden on the floor.
'Where is Liam?"
'My son here has been trying to fulfill his obligation to you Alpha." Beta Stones bowed.
'But he hasn't. Has he?" Alpha Victor who could pass for the near replica of Liam asked, his eyes still on that of his daughter.
'We were told he has gotten mated to the daughter of Alpha Rex." Beta Stone said finally getting Alpha Victor's attention.
