Chapter 11

chapter ELEVEN - THE MEETING

Back at Avid Mars

Vivion's POV

I freshened up and tried to eat something even when my appetite was as good as dead.

I rush the eggs and sip the juice and I can't take it anymore!

I seat up falling the chair down in the process and walking out.

My Beta walks behind me with a concerned look, I of course didn't miss.

I stepped out of my mansion and into the already parked vehicle waiting and ready for me.

I hop in the back seat and my beta stays in the passenger seat with the driver.

Every and any other guard, follows another vehicle.

We arrive at the pack house and I walk straight into the hall where all the high members are already seated.

"Let's do this fast, I am not in a good mood." I say to them as soon as I get seated.

"Good morning Alpha, hope you had a splendid night?" spoke Derek, one of the pack members and the youngest.

"Are we gathered here to talk about my night, Mr Derek?"

"I was only trying to"

"And I don't want to hear it." I coldly cut Derek short.

"Alpha Vivion Mark of Avid Mars" and my attention was brought to yet another member, Henry.

The one I wish I could get rid of, and the oldest one of us.

"A true Alpha doesn't keep his subjects waiting, we've been waiting for 4 hours" he dared to say that? How this man crawls under my skin.

"And so, what were you expecting, an apology?" I asked and noticed his eyes blink a few times.

"What's the problem for today, I don't like to waste my time" I said feeling exhausted and wishing to run away.

"The neighboring packs have been attacked by rogue werewolves" I listened to another member, Simon.

"Not this again"I murmur as I press my temples and massage it a little while taking a deep breath.

" And so? " I asked

" We are not the ones being attacked, why is this a big deal? "

I asked again

" The attacks are increasing Alpha, who knows if we might be next. Our families are at stake here. Something needs to be done" Simon continued

I watched the rest of the members nod their heads in agreement.

"It's obvious you all want something, what is it?" I asked

" We want you to send orders to attack the rogues, in that way, we strike before they do.

And we instill fear in them not to ever think of attacking our pack."

And I burst out laughing.

"I haven't laughed this good in a while. You all want me to give orders to attack rogues outside of our pack to give a warning and instill fear in them?

Are you all trying to say that we waste the lives of warriors to instill fear in rogues that probably already have the fear for this pack?

Waste lives of warriors who could serve a better purpose for this pack?"

" It's only a suggestion" replied Derek

"And a very stupid one at that.

Have you all forgotten the pack you belong to?

This isn't white moon pack, whose guards are down and defenseless.

Do you really think anyone or thing can infiltrate this pack?

Now listen to me you all, Avid Mars isn't some child's play, take a look around, no enemy has dared cross the line. I will not waste the lives of my soldiers because of some mere fear.

They attacked other packs but ours still remains untouched and standing tall, and I think they know the reason more than you all here do.

If you feel the defenses are wrong, you come up to me and we fix wherever you feel is wrong, and I will fill in your soldiers there.

And if at the end of the day this pack gets attacked through your defense route, your family will be killed in your stead, cause I was convinced your defense was the best which cost the lives of others.

So, who feels the defenses are wrong? Raise your hand as I do not have all day. "

I said, not that I had anywhere else to be other than sulking and drinking. I patiently waited for any idiots to raise his hand.

" You all must think I am a fool not to know what to do. I have spies currently investigating the reasons behind these attacks.

We get reasons why, how and find out their weakness before we attack, you fools.

We don't just jump blindly and attack, waste lives just to instill a fear that might be lost after they pick up their courage once again. We finish it up once and for all that no one is left to threaten us anymore.

You Plan, strategize, and not just jump in like headless chickens, or like fools taking a knife to a gunfight.

This is the last time a lousy meeting such as this with a stupid reason will be organized and I will be called to attend.

If you want to fight the rogues, send ur men, and leave my pack while you are at it.

I protect this pack." I said, slowly losing my cool and breath.

" Yes, but you couldn't protect your mate" whispered Nathan, another member, but I heard him loud and clear, and I finally lost it.

"You wanna share something, Nathan?" I calmly asked

"No Alpha"

"But I really think you do, come on, say it out" I signaled my beta and he knew exactly what to do.

"Talk to me Nath, I mean we all heard you, right?"

I said looking at each and every one seated here.

"Alpha he was only trying to say" Started Derek again.

"QUIET! The last time I checked, you weren't Nathan"

"I apologize my Alpha, it was a mistake. I didn't mean to sound so rude, I didn't know when it slipped out, I lost control, I apologize" Nathan began

"Get up and get here" I simply told him.

I watched him slowly walk to where I sat and he knelt on his knees.

" You dare say a word against my mate and me Nathan, let's see if you can control this? John!"

As soon as I called John he drew a sword from it's shaft and tossed it towards me, I swiftly caught it and before all eyes could blink a second time, I slashed the sword across Nathan's neck, and his head fell right at my feet, with traces of blood around me and on my clothes.

" Next time, the person won't be so lucky to die by a sword, and so righteously. This meeting is over!" I said and threw the sword away and walked out from the room leaving their Jaws hanging midair.
