Chapter 164
LANCE’S POV
Now I see the reason why Alpha Ralph doesn’t see eyes to eye with Alpha Damien. He is a curious fool and that curious nature of his will lead him to his early grave.
If I wasn’t smart, he would have figured me out which would not be good at all
It’s either he would’ve asked me to go get it somewhere else which would take me ages, or he would have gotten Alpha Hardin involved.
If Alpha Hardin knows about our plans, he is going to attack with immediate effect.
I honestly don’t want that to happen.
I’m just happy he bought my story and tomorrow, I’m going to go over to his pack and collect the silver, once I do that, we are going to make Reign lose the baby she is carrying and everything will go back to normal. We have the staff with us and that means we have the upper hand in this battle already, I won’t lit that baby take this chance from us!
“Did you get the Silver?” Alpha Ralph asks as he approaches me with both the Kevin and Lloyd following him behind.
“No, I didn’t”
“That bastard! I knew he wouldn’t give it!” Alpha Ralph curses angrily.
“Whoa, calm down Alpha, he did say he won’t give it to us p>
“I don’t understand”
“Actually, we had a very long debate. He asked me what I needed silver for and I said I wanted to add to the walls of my silver prison and also punish some recalcitrant subjects” “And he just bought the story p>
“Welk, he seemed not to at first, but I insisted and in the end, he believed me”
“Why then did he not give you the silver p>
“Because his was finished, he just ordered silver from the Wall Street Pack and he said it was going to arrive tomorrow”
“So when are you to go and get it?” He asks impatiently and I smile.
“Tomorrow at noon. Don’t worry man, I am just as eager as you are to get over and done with this. The earlier we get rid of that baby, the better for us”
“You did well to convince him Alpha Damien but what if he casually brings up the matter with Alpha Hardin? That will be problem for us” Lloyd chips in.
“Yeah, big trouble because Alpha Hardin being as wise as he is will figure out what you really need it for and he is going to storm this pack with all his soldiers. That is not something we are prepared for right now” Kevin adds. “Wait, are you guys trying to say that it was wrong of me to go and demand silver from Alpha Damien p>
“No, we did not say that”
“But that’s what it implies. What exactly is the problem”
“We are just trying to say that p>
“Trying to say what? Tell me, what are you trying to say? We tried poisoning her and it did not work. You very well told us the revelation you had and we decided to take action and now you are trying to blame a potential attack on me? Are you fucking kidding me right now p>
“Alpha Lance, I said that is not what we were insinuating”
“Well that is how it sounded to me! If you know you are going to keep saying things that don’t make sense, then shut your mouth! I don’t like it” I fume in anger and he scratches his head as looks up at me. “Find then, I’m sorry p>
“Now that’s better”
“You guys done quarrelling?” Alpha Ralph asks and I just roll my eyes.
“We weren’t p>
“Yeah, whatever. We need to prepare for anything. Alpha Lance, this is your pack and since you have Luna Reign with you, Alpha Hardin is most likely to attack here. What I will advice is that you pass orders to your soldiers to be on high alert and increase security at the dungeon. Even if he comes, we have to make sure he doesn’t get to her. Guys we have gone this far in this battle and we are not going to lose. Between now and when that silver is brought, I want us all to stay here and be on high alert. They should not stop us from accomplishing this goal p>
“You are right Alpha Ralph, indeed we have come this far not to lose. If you guys will be staying here for the night, I’ll tell my mate to organize the maids to prepare rooms for you all”
“That wine awesome”
“Alright then, excuse me p>
“Alpha Hardin” Lloyd calls just as I’m about to turn around and leave.
“Yes Lloyd, any problem p>
“I think there is”
“What is the problem p>
“It’s Reed, he is dying”
I swear my blood goes cold when the last words come out from his mouth.
Reed can’t die. If he does I will literally be alone in this battle and these guys might kick me out.
He can’t die!
“No, that’s a lie, Reed is not dying p>
“Have you checked on him lately?” He asks and I shake my head. “We saw him a while ago and his wound is only gets worse as the hours go by. Remember he can only be healed by Luna Reign and the poisoned blood which he drank only made matters worst. We have to do something”
“Like what exactly p>
“Try to convince Luna Reign to change her mind. We can beg her to do that”
“Lloyd, you can’t be this naïve. Do you honestly think that she will do that? Especially after all what have done are still doing to her, if you were in her shoes, would you do what you want her to do?” I ask with furrowed brows and he scratches his head yet again.
“I’m just really desperate right now, I don’t want Reed to die. Honestly I don’t”
“No one here wants him to die either Lloyd p>
“But he is going to die if we don’t do anything” He cries and I let out a heavy sigh of frustration.
“You know what, I think both you and Kevin should try talking to her. If there is one thing I know about Luna Reign, it is the fact that she has a good heart, if you beg her, she might surely change her mind”
“Then we are going to that right away. Let’s go Kevin” He urges and Kevin accompanies him outside.
To be very honest, sometimes I wish this war wasn’t in my time.
Everything is just so twisted and complicated right now and it’s frustrating me a great deal.
