Chapter 576 Gathering Evidence Daxton's P.O.V. Okay, this just made my day. I loved the look on his face when he heard my age, but seeing the look on his face when Dallas mentioned that we are both her Mates-priceless. Walker continues to make demands to take over the Beta position from Dezra, but Uncle Vaughn is growing increasingly tired of his demands, and I can't wait to hear what he will say next. "Beta Walker, I am not giving you the Beta position. Dallas and her Mates will take over that position, and that is final.

If I ever catch you at the gate again, you will spend a week in the dungeons. I will also report this to Alpha Leon and suggest that he relieve you of your duties as his Beta," Uncle Vaughn says. I doubt anyone had seen that last part coming. However, I can't blame Uncle Vaughn for putting it out there. Walker is a disgrace, not only as a Beta but also as a father. Someone should have dealt with him a long time ago, but it seems that everyone lacked the balls to do so. "Let's go back inside; I am done with Shitface," Dallas says, and I pick her up bridal-style to head back to the Palace.

I doubt Uncle Vaughn got any answers from Dezra, but maybe Grandpa did because he isn't around. We need to understand why she neglected her duties if we want to restore some of the trust her attitude has cost the Royal family. "Dallas, you are not going to like this," Grandpa says the moment we walk in the door. "Dezra really hated the responsibilities that came with her job and chose to ignore the complaints of every Shifter in our Kingdom." She buries her face in my neck while I feel the anger she holds inside through our bond.

I don't blame her for it, but I have a feeling that Uncle Vaughn could have known that something was wrong. "Quinlan, can we talk to you in the Beta office?" I ask while walking past Grandpa. "I have a question for you, and I want an honest answer." Quinlan closes the door behind him, and Darius and I sit down on a couch that faces the door. Quinlan sits down in an armchair and waits for me to ask my question.

"With all the knowledge you have at the moment-Dez not having an interest in the position, Dezra's disinterest in the complaints, and basically ignoring her duties-do you believe that your father could have known?" I ask. "Just to be clear, you mean if Dad could have known what Dezra did with everything we have discovered so far?" Quinlan asks in return. I nod my head because it wasn't really a question, but a confirmation of what he believed to be my question. "Ever since I turned eighteen, I have been following my Dad around.
