District six, this was the district where Mason gathered his power. The place where the previous heir to the alpha title concentrated his influence in.
Therefore, it was quite a headache for them to get to the bottom of it, especially when it was only two weeks, since the power was overturned and those who supported Mason still believed they could turn the tables around.
It was a precarious period, where anything could happen and Cane had to be very cautious about it.
"All the people had gathered inside the house, what do you want us to do alpha?" Will asked Cane, after he reported what had transpired here.
Inside a building that was disguised as a restaurant, around twelve people had gathered, who were none other than Mason's supporters, as they tried to plan a counterattack. Their goal was to get the alpha's son out of the prison.
Based on the information that Cane had gathered, they would first take Mason out of this pack and then gather their power by asking help from other packs that had been acquainted with alpha Gerald for years.
There was a high chance they would help, as long as Mason could survive getting out of this pack, after all, they didn't want Cane to take revenge on them.
The moment Cane managed to merge the two packs together, the power balance would be disrupted and they didn't want a former slave like Cane to be on the top of the power chain.
"Shift and wait for my command to attack." Cane looked at the closed restaurant with cold eyes. He led this operation himself because it was very important to catch them all.
"Yes, alpha," Will said, as he relayed the order to the others.
"We have come so far," Jace said, as he stood on the alpha's right side. "Let's end this misery." They had gone through hell and back for them to be able to stand here today and those ten years of slavery would forever scar them.
Cane said nothing, as he shifted into his black wolf, followed by the other shifters. There were around thirty of them and they were ready to wreak havoc tonight.
The alpha took the lead and dashed toward the closed building, soon after which a thick scent of blood filled the air and the quiet night was suffused with screams and agony. Death hung so low tonight around this certain building...
========================
Iris waited for Cane inside the bedroom. She sat on the couch near a window, as she stared at the back garden.
She played there often when she was a child and this brought back a bunch of bitter memories to her.
At that time she was eight, she had a friend, a little boy from the stables, who showed her a foal and she fell in love with the creature. They even named the foal and Iris would sneak out of her bedroom to go see him, as both of them played with other horses.
However, her father found out that she was not in her quarters and roamed in places that he didn't approve of.
