Chosen By The Moon (Dylan) novel Chapter 208

"I will not put my people at risk any more than I already have." She stood up and looked at me pained. Sympathy written all over her features. "I know how much you have been through. But we've built something here, something good, something hidden from the king and his wolves. I think you are amazing, but I don't intend to sacrifice everything we strive for, for the sake of one persons ideals."

"It's not just my ideals V. It's everyone the lycans have shit on in the last five years. It's all the family's that have been torn apart for the sake of a stupid new world. theres really only a handful of people that are are actually happy and content. Rebellion is around the corner, wether it starts with this place or somewhere else." Delusional wasn't even the word I would use. This lady was completely deranged and blind to the world. Unfortunately, I knew far too many people with the same attitude.

"I've said I'll think about it. You're ideas are valid, but they need a lot of preparation, whatever we decide to do, we can't do half cocked." I sighed and realized that she had no intention of starting anything. As long as she and this place were safe, she didn't care about the suffering of other humans. “Besides, if we closed the border down completely, then how are we supposed to smuggle all the contraband items?”

Now this annoyed me to high heavens, the smuggling trade was forged to provide help to the people living in conditions that were inhumane. The lack of rations provided was simply abhorrent for families with children, or for people who had to care for those with learning difficulties. There was simply no living.

“Taking away the smuggling trade for people might not be the worst idea.” I shrugged while looking at the girl in front of me. I watched as Vs mouth hung open in shock at my words.
