“Come out, come out, they have arrived!” A voice rang in my head, and I did not need to know why my father’s Delta would call us to come out in the middle of the night.
The day was hectic because my father used most of it to move from the big house to one of the tiny houses in the pack compound.
The big packhouse used to be a palace.
My father had taken over the pack after the werewolves in our territory had joined forces and sacked one of the Lycan kings that plagued our lands.
I learned the man was evil, and he never showed mercy.
It was imperative to defeat him because his belief that Lycans were superior to werewolves led him to take steps leading to the enslavement of my kind.
It was my father, along with his friends, that liberated us.
I sat up in bed, a bit reluctant to go out, but if Delta Israel was right, I had no choice but to come outside.
My father had broken the sad news to me in the morning about him having to concede to the challenge the savage prince of rogues, Nikolas, had given him.
My father said he could not allow people to die because of his pride. He further told me that he had negotiated with the Rogue Prince, and the prince agreed to care for the pack members if my father swore by his wolf to submit.
I doubted if the Lycans could be trusted, but my father was hopeful because he knew we wouldn’t win a war with them, and he was right.
Alpha Nikolas was a rogue Lycan of unknown origin that made a name by conquering every pack in our territory.
We were the only ones standing, and we knew it was only a matter of time before he came calling.
Obviously, we were his primary target because he ensured he conquered every pack around us to isolate and trap us, pending the time he would strike.
Unlike the other alphas, my father chose peace over his pride and dignity, and I hoped he wouldn’t regret it.
I learned the savage prince grew up in the wilderness, packless and grew his army by creating a pack of rogues.
They were a mix of savage Lycans like him, known to be deadly and ruthless.
I wondered how my father could give his pack away to such people. There was no guarantee they would keep their promise, but it was better than fighting to the death.
I managed to get off the bed and headed outside my room. I saw my father approaching, and it was clear he was coming to me.
“Aliana,” he said almost in a whisper, and I frowned at him.
He walked to me with a smile, but his eyes spoke otherwise; he looked afraid and hopeless. He placed both hands on my shoulders and made me look up at him.
“I know you are brave and determined. But I need you to be a coward,” He said, and I frowned at him, wondering why he was telling me this. It went against everything he taught me.
“Listen to me, Aliana,” He said with teary eyes.
