Chapter 139
My eyes widened as I heard Eric. I could not just believe him. Why was he lying? There was no way my brother, who had so much pride in himself, would submit to any Alpha. So, submitting to Adrian was far from it.
“What? Jason submitted himself to Adrian? Why?” My father asked.
It was a clear indication that he also could not believe Eric’s words.
Eric slowly nodded his head in reply. Though I was still in a state of shock, I could not ignore his broken body.
I held his hand and gave a signal to our theta to help me sit him on the couch.
As Eric sat on the couch beside my babies, he glanced at them.
“How are they?” he asked.
My attention returned to them. I did not know what to do. I was in a mess right now.
“Eric, my dear, can you tell us everything clearly?” My mother asked him, looking desperate to know why Jason had decided to do such a big thing.
Being submitted to any Alpha during the war meant giving up the position of the head Alpha to him.
Eric began speaking in a low tone, holding his stomach against his bandaged ribcage.
“When we went to the forest, we found Adrian had entered our boundary, but the whole information was wrong. He did not come here with five hundred wolves. They were only a hundred but powerful enough to fight against any pack.”
He st
stopped and inhaled deeply. I walked over to the nightstand, picked up the glass of water, and gave it to him.
After gripping the glass with a shaken hand, he took a big swallow of water.
After a little silence, he started speaking once more.
“Our pack fighters started to fight with the Crystal Blood Pack’s fighters. In the mind link, they were continuously saying that they came to help us and not to fight against us. However, Jason thought they would backstab us, so he declared all of our pack fighters not to let any pack fighters of the Crystal Blood Pack go alive. Since it was a declaration of war from the head Alpha, our pack fighters killed many of their wolves.
From the beginning of the war, our target was Adrian and his officials. But when Jason encountered Adrian in war…
Jason stopped as he shut his eyes as if recalling everything was also causing him pain.
I was eager to know the truth. “Eric, please try to remember. It’s important. We need to know everything.”
He coughed a little, then exhaled. He looked at my parents, and then his gaze focused on me.
“Jason fought against Adrian.”
“They engaged in a fight?” I asked with a shocked tone.
“Yes, they did. Despite his illness, Jason wanted to keep this pack safe. But the fight did not stretch out long because Adrian told Jason that he learned about Alpha Leo’s attack and came here to help him. Jason did not want to believe him, but thinking about his health, he had no other way. He thought to stop the war against the Crystal Blood Pack.”
I was confused. “If everyone stopped the war, then how did everything go wrong?”
“He could not declare it because, before that, Alpha Leo had already attacked our pack with a very large number of pack fighters. We all had to start fighting again, and it went wild. Jason was losing his strength and thought he would pass out there. But when he learned Alpha Leo was heading to the pack house, the fear of losing his family captured his heart. He was worried about you, Natalia. Because we all knew Leo’s target was getting you.
“Adrian became enraged upon realizing that our attack took the lives of so many of his fighters. If Adrian wanted, he could kill Jason there. But they had a conversation in their mind link, which made Jason freeze. I had no idea what Adrian said to him, but after that, Jason kneeled down in submission to Adrian. Jason had no strength to defend himself, and he was aware that Alpha Leo could kill him at any moment.
However, there was something that Jason learned that he wanted to tell you but could not say because of the attack. He only told me one thing to tell you.”
