Chapter 106
Xander
“Are you listening?” I was startled by Chas’s questions. I looked around and found everyone looking at me. We were in my office having a meeting because Nixon reported that vampires had started to have divisions. The council is against Silas and is working on something to remove him from his position as the vampire leader. They wanted his brother, who was now in hibernation and were planning on awakening him even if it wasn’t allowed.
“Yeah, I’m sorry about that,” I replied and shook off the bad thoughts in my head. I still couldn’t get rid of the idea that I was going to die and leave Chassy with Silas. “You were saying?” I asked,
“We have to talk to Silas; he wants to make peace with us and live harmoniously with humans the way we are doing.” Yeah, it was about Silas. “Are you sure you’re okay?”
“Yes. It’s just something that came to mind.” I answered. “Anyway, if he wanted that, who are we to object? But having the rest of his coven against the idea is the problem. If he can’t make them follow him, how are we going to do that?”
“And because of that, war is possible to happen soon.” It was Nixon. He was looking at me as if he were wondering whether I was with them or not.
“In addition to that, rogues are on their side, right?” I asked, and they all nodded. Then my dream will happen, and it is going to happen soon.
“I talked to Daddy Jay, and he said that this is inevitable. We have no choice but to go through this; the only variable that will change the course of this is that Silas is now my mate.” Chassy said, but no one rebuked her. They already knew about it and were all thinking about how they would use it to our advantage.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Does former alpha Jay have some kind of premonition about what’s going to happen?” Jack asked,
“I don’t know either,” my mate replied. “But every time he warns me, I follow him. I don’t ask questions unless necessary, and that means if I want to know more.” She continued, “Simon and Rick said that the moon goddess was talking to him through his dream and that he was able to see a glimpse of what was to come.”
I looked at Limuel and found him looking at me as well. Maybe he was thinking that, just like Jay, I was too. But no, I know for myself that the moon goddess didn’t talk to me at all. She was only telling me what to do about that specific incident.
“I want to call the squad back, but I didn’t want other packs to become vulnerable as well, so I decided to come with what we have,” Chassy said.
“How about Silas?” Jack asked again. ,
“I don’t know if he is going to help us; I haven’t discussed with him what we have found out so far, and I don’t think he will believe me either, so I don’t have any plans to tell him about our plan either.”
“So, what is our plan?” It was Limuel. I know that he was getting impatient because of the threat that we were trying to eliminate, but as we tried, it got out of hand. Our opponent got stronger as the days passed. If what Nixon said was true, then the awakening might be happening right now, as we speak.
“Let’s don’t get hasty. I think we have to take things slow. If they attack us, I’m sure that they will start here.” I chimed in, and they all looked at me, especially Chas.
“What are you talking about?” she asked, creasing her forehead.
“I’m just saying. The Red Moon Pack is the strongest around here, and if they are smart, they will use their full force on us.”
“Is that what you dreamed about?” she asked, and I can’t reply to that. She didn’t want me to think about it, and if I said yes, it would only mean that I didn’t listen to her, and that’s not good. She’ll nag at me, and that’s for sure.
“No, I was just thinking that they need to use their full force on us and will leave the others behind. If other packs find out that we lose to them, their confidence will be depleted, and they may not fight them back anymore.” I explained.
“Alpha has a point,” Limuel said. “You know how dependent other packs are on us. They will surely give up once they find out we lose.”
“So, what do you suggest?” Nixon asked.
“As always, keep the pack strong and ready for anything,” he replied.
“That’s it?” Chas’s tracker asked, creasing his forehead.
“What else do you want? Obviously, we can’t go and attack their coven. Our Luna is also mated to their leader, and we are also considering that fact.” My beta said, I’m sure that he was trying to control his anger because he doesn’t like to be questioned by anyone, especially when he is below his rank.
“Let’s not argue about that.” I chimed in before their argument heated up. I didn’t want them to fight as well, and I understand that Nixon was the one who was giving us valuable information. Maybe he was tired of being away from his pack and would want to rest too.
“I’m sorry, Beta Limuel, Alpha Xander,” Nixon said with his head down.
“It’s alright, Nixon. I know that you have been out there with your team, trying to get any information you can to report to us. Believe me, I appreciate your hardship and would want this to end as soon as possible as well. But I hope that you understand our situation; we can’t just go there and attack. We have to make sure that everyone is in their best condition. As much as possible, I want all our warriors to live and tell the tales of their predecessors.”
“I understand, Alpha,” he replied sincerely. I smiled and nodded before I looked at everyone who was now expecting me to say something.
“Let’s train and be more vigilant. Just like what Chas had taught everyone, be each other’s backup. Make sure that everyone is in a position where others can easily support and assist them. The element of surprise that we practice on a daily basis will be the foundation of our defense and offense.” I said.
“In addition to that, let’s do our best to keep ourselves safe and stay away from unnecessary fights, especially with vampires. They would taunt you and tease you to the point where you couldn’t hold on to your emotions. Remember to keep your cool at all times and think rationally. The losers ended up being defeated because they let their emotions take over. Do I make myself clear?” Chass added.
“Yes, Alpha!” they all replied.
