The Wolf In Me novel Chapter 9

Part 1 Planning our way in

 

"This must be a good plan. We cannot risk anyone's lives," Luka said tapping his index fingers on the table.

 

"Must we not give our pack enough training to achieve a victory?" I asked looking at everyone in the room.

 

Jake looked at each of us before he gathered himself to speak. "I have given the pack good training exercises which helped them gain muscle strength, but I do not think they are ready for war. I did not train them to fight, and without good fighting techniques, we will fail, especially with the vamps. Even though one bite from a wolf kills them, they come in thousands...we are one hundred and fifty. How will that make it possible to kill them without any deaths from our pack?" He looked at us with concerned eyes.

 

"Malakai can train them to fight. His father, who had a lot of experience with wars, trained him to become a good soldier, which makes him our best fighter. Maybe he can help us. My father and I are also trained to fight, so we can help Malakai during training. But we need to push the pack hard," Luka said raising his eyebrows.

 

 

"Son, how should we locate their nest?" Gerald asked with a low voice.

 

Luka was silent for a split second, chewing his lower lip as he was thinking for an answer whilst looking at the map in front of him.

 

 

"Let's see. We can send a small pack around these areas here."

 

He was pointing at the map "we send them in groups of ten, just in case. They can scent them and come back here to inform us."

 

I opened my eyes wide as I was unsure if that was a good plan.

 

"Surely the vamps will sense them and come to attack. Don't you think we will be risking our people like that?" I pursed my lips and looked at Luka.

 

"Sweety, we don't have much choice though. How will we find where they are located?" Luka asked looking back at me.

 

I looked down as I had no other plan. "Twenty. We send twenty of our men to have more backup. What do you all think? As soon as they sniff out their scent, they can just rush back here to let us know," Luka proposed.

 

"Luka we need to find volunteers for this task. I do agree with you but how will we choose?" Gerald asked.

 

I breathed in and out feeling shaky. I didn't want to risk anyone but there was no other way to find out where the vamps hideout.

 

 

"We can go searching during the day when the sun is out. The vamps will not risk going out in daylight," Jake said smiling.

 

 

"If they have a witch in their favour, she can use magic to create daylight rings for their guards. We cannot take it for granted," Gerald replied.

 

Sure enough Jake was somehow right but what Gerald said might be true as well. Since we didn't have much of a choice we all agreed to the plan.

 

"Once we find their hiding spot, we make sure to reach for their eggs first. If they fail to harvest their younglings, the number of vamps will reduce for us since they evolve in just a few days and attack out of hunger. That is why they are more aggressive than the rest. The elders are already weaker than their good old times so I suggest we attack them second round. The only problem would be, how would we know which are the old and the young?" Luka looked at his father, knowing that he somehow knew the answer.

 

"The elders wear a transparent ring only alphas of the wolf pack can see it. The common wolves, betas and omegas, also Lunas will not be able to see the ring. That means that we have two options. We can either fight the elders ourselves, Luka, or we ask for more help from outside our pack. You can mind link the other alphas to join us."

 

He turned his eyes on Luka that looked surprised like the rest of us.

 

"I never heard of this before," Luka said. "How do you know I can do this?"

 

Gerald looked at all of us first then smiled and turned to face Luka.

 

"You are the king of not just the pack, but the king of all alphas. You can do things no one did before. Our Goddess gave you more power than any previous alphas. You are her knight son. She is depending on you."
