The Wolf In Me novel Chapter 76

Luka's POV

Going through the plan for the last time with the council, we have come to an agreement that this was the best option and the most convenient one. No words could describe how proud I was to see my son achieving in contenting the council as it was always a difficult task to do.

"Alpha Dale, if you may inform your pack that we will be all meeting up at noon like we discussed. I will be asking another pack to back us up whilst you Lylah, inform the other witches to join us in this. Mason, I need you by my side to help me in settling everything else. The rest may leave. Discussion is over," I said, moving towards the bottle of whisky.

The sound of the chairs moving and chattering was slowly fading until the room emptied. Turning back towards the desk as I held the half-full whisky glass, there was only my son who was smiling from ear to ear.

"You are mentally ready to lead. It's in your blood. You are not a child any more kid. I can sense that you are going to be the best alpha king to have ever lived," I said, stopping to take a sip from the drink.

"Nah, that can never be a dad. I can never take that title from you. However, thanks to you, I am feeling more confident that my plan is going to save a lot of people."

"Are you ready?" I asked, looking at the watch.

"As ready as can be," he nodded, standing from his seat to make his way to the hall to get the pack moving.

Mason's POV

Carol was by my side fidgetting with her hair, observing her surroundings to connect with the environment around her, whilst getting prepared for the plan. As she was busy doing her thing I raised my left hand to get everyone's attention without making too much noise, considering we were not so far from the yellow stone pack's territory.

"Is everyone ready?" I asked, taking the lead whilst dad was walking towards me gesturing to start moving.

My body felt tense as we drew closer towards the highly fortified walls, knowing that there was no going back now. Melody made her way closer to the fortification and I could notice her chanting from afar. Moments later I could see the wall fading and that was the sign to get going.

A large number of wolves before me was quietly following my lead as we passed through and into the other side, moving closer towards the entrance door whilst Nelly was already in front of us chanting to unlock it. Father was waiting with his group away from the yellow pack's sight until I could make my way in.

Lylah, who was busy observing through a window to see if their halls were empty, sent a signal for us to wait a moment. She quickly made a sleeping spell on the few guys that were guarding the door against the inside, then gestured for us to slowly walk in safely.

For now, I was feeling that my plan was working and so I felt more at ease. My group was to take the left wing of the house pack whilst dad took his to the right and Alpha Dale motioned for the rest to make their way upstairs. Smiling excitedly I gestured for everyone to each take their places by a bedroom door and wait for my signal.

Alpha Dale's POV

As I made my way up with my team, I observed the area to familiarise myself with it whilst checking for any passer-by. The enchantress was by my side, busy putting two tall guys to sleep with a spell before we continued to go further in. I motioned with my arms for half of my group to walk to the left-wing whilst I covered the right side with the rest. I knew that Alpha Marcus's room was on this site and it was only right for me to be the one responsible to take care of him. One of my pack stayed by the staircase to give me a sign when everyone downstairs was settled as planned.

"At the ready," I mind linked the alpha king.

Luka's POV

"Now. Go, go, go, go, go" I said quickly and in a low tone.

Everyone swiftly made their way into the bedrooms whilst I mind linked Mason.

"Go Mason, go."

I stayed outside the corridor in case of emergency whist the packs were in a bedroom injecting the yellow pack to remain asleep. The plan was successful so far and now all we had to do was to wait for alpha Dale's group to come down with alpha Marcus to have a nice chat with him.
