The Lead
Dylan's POV
I sat on the couch and chewed on a little stick as I waited for the arrival of my men. They had been gone for a while and the day of their return had come.
Yet, there was no sign of them anywhere. I didn't want them to get into the Pack without me knowing that they had arrived and so I left my room so early in the morning and sat on the couch in the sitting room, with a few guards by my side, as usual, anxiously waiting for them to return.
As I turned around and saw the guards, a feeling of happiness sprang up within me. "I need some water immediately," I said to them as one of them quickly left to get it.
In about two to three minutes, he was back with a glass of water in hand and after handing it over to me, I looked at it for some time and decided not to drink it, since
I wasn't thirsty anyway.
"Here," I said to him, handing the glass of water over to him as he looked so shocked."You can have it. Drink it "
"Thank you," he said, taking the glass of water from me. He stared at me for a bit before drinking the water.
"Good," I said, with a smile on my face. He must have thought that I probably didn't trust him or something like that. How wrong he was!
I was only trying to test out my powers with him. Although I was in the Pack of the rogues, I was treated like a king. I felt like a King.
At some point, I began to think about staying there since I had all the privileges that I craved back in my Pack.
A rogue Pack was still a rogue Pack. Anything could happen at any time, especially when one would least expect it. They were called Rogues for a reason. Besides, through them, I had gotten some experience on how I was to rule a Pack and I couldn't wait to do it in my Pack, where I truly belonged.
"Has anyone seen Johnny?" I asked the guards but they all shook their heads.
I began to wonder if anything had gone wrong somehow or if they were caught. "What if they were right about the security?" I asked myself, trying not to concede to the thoughts in my head but it was so hard. I couldn't afford to lose two of my trusted men, especially Johnny, who wasn't only an asset but my best friend. "He's going to be so..."
I heard some voices down the corridor, very close to the parlour and I sat up in anticipation. It was Johnny's voice. I was so sure about it.
The door opened and Johnny and the spy walked in full of smiles and I finally got myself to calm down a bit. From the look on their faces too, it seemed to me that their journey was either partly or fully successful. I just had to hear what they had to say.
"We have some great news for you, Dylan," said Johnny as they walked to where I sat.
"Can I sit?" Asked Danny, the spy and I nodded.noveldrama
He and Johnny sat beside me as Danny proceeded to tell me what happened in the Silver Moon Pack.
"So I got through to Sophia through the help of one of the guards in the building," he began. "Ivan is his name. He let me get into the dungeon when no one was watching. He did give me a warrior's attire, just in case and I put it on."
"What about Sophia?" I asked. "How did she react when you told her that I sent you?"
"Well, she looked a bit stunned at first and I became concerned if she knew who you were but she claimed that she knew and so I went on to tell her everything you told me concerning the plan to break her out of the cell and bring her here to you so that we can continue our plans to strike Bane when he'd least expect." "You did great, Danny," I commended him. "Surely, you'll get your reward once I get on that throne."
"Thank you so much," he bowed. "Sophia was so excited when I told her about the plan. She was so eager to join us and deal with Bane so well. She's looking forward to the day we'll break her out of her cell."
I was elated on hearing that. Our plan was coming along. It was only a matter of time now as I was one step closer to defeating Bane and taking back my birthright.
"We have to get to work as soon as possible, now that we have the chance and an inside man who would be keen on helping us. Who knows? He too might want
to join us. The earlier we take action, the better it'll be for us."
They both nodded in agreement.
"How discreet would we be, Dylan?" Johnny asked. "I feel we need to kidnap her in a way that no one would know or suspect anything. Before they'll know what's going on, she should have already been gone. What do you think?"
"I think you should leave everything to me, Johnny. I have a plan and my plan is a perfect one. Trust me when I say that it's certainly going to be very fruitful without a doubt."
"Okay," he nodded.
"This calls for a celebration guys. A big celebration! Go get some women and wine, Johnny, let us drink and have the time of our lives! We deserve it, don't we?"
Johnny nodded and proceeded to get the women.
Alpha Bane's POV
"How has the Pack been faring in my absence?" I asked my father, as we both sat in the throne room.
"I told you that I was going to handle things very well, didn't I? The Pack has made a lot of progress since you left and we've managed to seal off our borders with most rogue Packs, just like you instructed."
"Thank you, father. I'm thankful."
All of a sudden, a thought came across my mind concerning Dylan. I remembered that for a long time, he looked like a forgotten man instead of a haunted man. We were to track him down and deal with him ruthlessly regardless of where he was, although I had given the instruction, I didn't know if anyone followed it.
"What about Dylan, dad? Have you made time to send spies to check out the neighbouring Packs to know where he had gone to hide? He couldn't have gone
so far."
"I have, my son. Indeed, we even have a lead," he replied, much to my surprise. "I got some information that Dylan might be hiding away in a Rogue Pack not so far from here."
I raised my brows in surprise. "Why didn't you tell me this?" I asked.
"I didn't want to disturb you since you only just arrived."
I shrugged but said nothing about that, even though I didn't think it was enough reason to not tell me something of that magnitude.
"What's the progress, dad? We need to act very fast. Do you know the name of the exact Rogue Pack so we can decide when to strike that food?"
What do you think?
