Chapter 127
Talia’s arms were folded as she sat on the floor, her back against the bark of a tree, while Liliana was seated beside her, her head leaning on her shoulder as they stared at Koan who was standing side by side with Raiden, a large group of pack warriors behind them.
There was silence, not a single trace of smiles or amusement on anyone’s faces as he made a call. His face turned grave at each second over the phone until he finally placed the phone away, placing a gun at the other side of his pocket.
“Well,” Talia got up. “Who called p>
Koan turned to Raiden before glaring at the women who were standing side by side with similar probing expressions.
“It was Alpha Joseph p>
Silence; as they waited still for the explanation of the grave expression on his face.
“Alpha Drake of Crimson Moon’s pack is dead p>
There was a traditional full minute silence as they all bowed their heads down, including Koan.
Liliana spoke first when Koan raised his hand, tiredly running his hand through his hair.
“How did he die p>
“He was killed… so far that’s all I heard. But right now, we have to go to head to Ruby Stone’s pack p>
Talia frowned.
“Why? Does this have anything to do with Nancy p>
“Look, I don’t know okay p>
“Well, we just stop looking for my best friend? Is that it p>
“Well, the Kitsunes took her, right?!” He suddenly yelled back, finally loosing control after all these while of holding back. The restraints. He was slowly loosing his mind. Everyone assumed that he didn’t care but he did. They’ve been on the search for Nancy for days, but how could they find Foxtune? Did they even have a clue of where they could have taken her?
“We head to Ruby Stone’s pack like he said.” He wanted to say more before that, but he just bluntly gave the order, and without a word, hopped into the car, Raiden following suit, while Talia and Liliana simultaneously got in after exchanging reluctant glances.
There were Eleven other cars behind them as Raiden drove off, occupying more that five pack warriors in each.
Alpha Kris of Silver Moon’s pack was in a meeting on the OTHER SIDE. Aside being an Alpha, he also had duties there, so on hearing the news about Alpha Drake’s sudden death, the white sheet of paper he was holding in the meeting couldn’t hold a candle to how he paled on hearing the news.
He excused himself and stepped out, pulling his phone and dialling his son’s number before waiting, hearing it ring continuously, just like his pounding heart.
What the f**k was actually going on? He was obviously killed, but Drake wasn’t one to give up in a fight. Whoever had killed him must have been very strong. Why would they kill an Alpha? All these questions rampaged in his head for a while, he thought of coming back, but realizing he had two grown up sons back home, he didn’t bother himself.
“Hey Dad.” He heard Jephthah speak, but was also aware John was at the other side, they had probably heard the news.
“Did Alpha Joseph call?” He simply asked with a grave expression.
A woman suddenly stepped out of the office to beckon him in but he brought up two of his fingers, which insinuated, he needed two more minutes to round up the call.
Once the woman entered back inside, he turned to his phone.
“Yes he did… We informed him you weren’t around, so now John and I are about heading to Ruby Stone’s pack. Your Beta will handle things from here p>
“Make sure to take the pack warriors with you. I’m busy now, but I just wanted to tell you two to be careful… especially that brother of yours. He forgets I love him just as much as I love you. He shouldn’t go around, risking his life carelessly… he has an Alpha’s blood running through him no matter what p>
He heard a snort from the other line. Even the moon goddess didn’t need to tell him who had done that. However, he was currently needed In the meeting and had to leave.
After confirming from Jephthah that they would be careful, he ended the call, and proceeded into the office.
According to Alpha Joseph’s orders, he, Alpha of Shadow Slayer’s pack and Alpha Cardin of Blood Moon’s pack would head down to Moon Howler’s pack, While Alpha Koan of Crescent Moon’s pack, along with whoever will represent him, Aloha Kris from Silver Moon’s pack, will head down to Ruby Stone’s pack.
Note, we have,
Alpha Daniel of Dark Risers’s pack
Alpha Justin of Moon Howler’s pack
Alpha Koan of Crescent Moon’s pack
Late Alpha Drake of Crimson Moon’s pack
Alpha Cardin of Blood Moon’s pack
Alpha Kris of Silver Moon’s pack
Alpha Joseph of Shadow Slayer’s pack
and Alpha Henry of Ruby Stone’s pack.
Currently in Dark Risers’s pack, the news of Alpha Drake’s death had been spread, such that everyone was now on their toes, aware that something dangerous was on the loose. Killing an Alpha was hard… almost impossible. But only one creature could easily finish them off, and the older ones feared they might be in existence once again.
After Alpha Joseph and Alpha Cardin must have successfully helped Alpha Justin sneak out of his pack, they would arrive at Ruby Stone’s pack, thus all the Alphas of the werewolf territory pack would be present there, so Daniel was ordered to head to Ruby Stone’s pack with several of his pack warriors. Luckily, Daniel and Barton had found the time to train with them during their spare time sessions, so Daniel knew a couple few hundred they could take Along with him. He had sent them to Ruby Stone’s pack ahead of them.
In Moon Howler’s pack, Alpha Justin was also well aware of the news, but didn’t know he was about to have visitors very soon, Ciara however was persistent about him calling out his pack warriors to guard the area.
“What? Are you suggesting that a particular assassin is Killing Alphas or something?” He snorted at Ciara’s grave expression before coaxing her, slowly running his hand through her hair before bringing down his fingers to caress her face. “Maybe, Alpha Drake had some unfinished business with someone… there could be several explanations for what happened earlier, but you don’t expect me to start panicking just because of that p>
