Blake’s POV
I’m not home currently as many of my pack members are trying to mind message me. They might have something urgent to say indeed. I rather decline all the mind messages I can hear in the mind link as I tune in to Jake’s mind link to instruct him to contact the pack members.
But he isn’t able to be mind messaged as well. I am busy discussing with the moon goddess on how to grow my pack to be a successful one and how to get a pack and control it. Then, my mate. Though I am greatly feared, yet I don’t have a mate yet and that affects me sometimes. After so much stress, I always wish I have someone to cuddle. It can be anyone from my pack or anyone outside my pack as long as such would join my pack and is indeed my taste.
The moon goddess suddenly postpones our conversation, giving me a instruction to go attend to my wolves before continuing the conversation. She definitely must have seen something odd, as this is the first time I’d hear such words from her.
I quickly get up from the ground as I dust my feet and head towards my house. It’s not so far from college. It isn’t inside college anyway, as some claim.
As I almost get to my doorstep, I can sight up to fifteen wolves walking around my house, waiting impatiently for me to arrive. I fold my arms and place them behind me as I stand at a corner, watching all of them to know when they’ll take their leave.
I wait for an extra hour before I am suddenly reminded that moon goddess indeed told me to go meet my wolves. I hurry into the mind link as I contact one of them.
“Leave my doorstep. Let me get in. If not, no one’s gonna be attended to!” I yell at them in the mind link.
After a few more seconds, all of them vanish from my doorstep as I walk towards my house. I slowly creak it open as I slam it shut behind me in case there’s so close to me and would want to get in before I do.
I don’t even consider mind messaging them again about my safe arrival in my house so they could table their requests.
“Alpha, I’d love to leave the pack.” They begin to murmur as they rush inside my living room after I open the door for them.
“What did I hear you say?” I ask again, as their words are beginning to irritate me.
“We want to leave the pack. We’re heading toward another direction.” One of them says as I go for him, pinning him totally to the wall.
“What do you mean?” I angrily ask as my wolf’s eyes glisten intensely, threatening him with deadly glares.
Another defends from behind me, taking few steps back in case I’d be coming for her next.
“We mean, we need to relocate and will no longer belongs to the pack because of that. We’ll need to join a new pack once we get to our destination. But I deem it right to inform you about this before taking any action.” She informs as I release my grip from the guy’s throat
I move towards the three-seater as I slowly have my seat. I place my head on my knees, wondering how gruesome I might become in the next few minutes if these wolves around me don’t change their decision or swallow their words.
“Do you know the consequences of what you’re doing?” I ask as I lift my head.
“There’s no consequence for this, Alpha,” another defends, “we have the rules with us and we even know them offhand. We should be given right if freedom in this pack as well. We have never exposed you to anyone. Besides, we are moving away from this vicinity totally. Going to a different country entirely. All of us. Same time. We’re just ten. You have more wolves in your pack that can stay loyal. And the new guy you appointed promised to choose more betas this evening and would soon call you for a meeting. I mean, your pack’s going just fine. You don’t need to worry about those leaving.” He narrates.
“The pack rule states that once you are invited, you have to join, else, you’d be killed on the spot. The second rule states that if you want to leave the pack for any reason whatsoever, you’d be killed because you can’t detach water without detaching the blood in it. Blood has to be shed as well.” I inform.
They freeze up as one of them musters courage to question me further, “does that mean we would die for trying to relocate? Doesn’t the pack look towards our betterment?”
“That’s not the issue. You’re just mouthing.” I point at the audacious one, “be warned.”
“Is there any other option? Like a favor in return? Or anything you can do to ensure we don’t expose the pack after leaving?” Another asks.
“You can’t expose the pack after leaving. If you do, those that become aware of it can’t reveal it to anyone here on earth. You’d be dead the moment you claim to have detached yourself.” I inform.
“This is a threat. I need to report the case to cops.”
“Same cops would die alongside with you,” I pose a threat further, “which also means they know about it. So they would die. There’s no pardon for that.”
“We’d stay.” Seven of them eventually agree as they walk out of the living room, grumbling as they walk away. I now turn to the three people left as I am yet to understand why they are still present with me.
“Don’t you understand Basic English?” I ask them as my wolf is about to morph.
One of them slowly raises his sleeve as I see a gun strapped to him. Another reveals the wolfsbane injection maxima in his pockets as the third one stays in front of them, seeming like a master.
Who did they come to fight? A mere animal?
