Chapter 67
Alpha Jake has a point. We can’t leave that possibility out of the equation. If there is something the enemy needs, it is a hideout away from the eyes of any species from which they can move freely without hesitation. They need somewhere away from the eyes of humans as well because we all know how humans’ mouths are. They will spread about whatever they find in the woods or anywhere they have been to or seen things from.
“Then I am going to check it out with my warriors; let someone from one of yours who knows the place come with us and lead the way,” Matteo said, Alpha Jake nodded his head, and thanks to him, we might be able to end everything sooner. If what he said was true and we apprehended them in one go, then I hope we will end Matteo’s uncle’s madness in no time.
“I didn’t want to get ahead of myself, but I want you to be ready as well,” I told him, and the two looked at me confused. “If what you think is correct, I’m sure that our enemy had already planned their escape once they knew they had been found. Your pack and the other one are near them, so there’s a possibility that they will cross your border.” I added,
“With that, I want you to be ready when we go there. Be on guard, spread your patrol guards, and make them heightened in their senses. We can’t let them get a chance to retaliate through your pack or the others.” Matteo said, “Please ask other alphas to do that as well without alarming their pack. It is important that they know nothing to make our plan work.”
“Yes, Your Highness. I will make some arrangements as well for the other pack. We can’t let them become the enemy’s new hiding spot.” he replied.
“Now that it’s clear, tomorrow, me and my team will be going there. Since the other pack’s warriors were here doing the training, use that to your advantage and stay connected to other packs. Keep your line open for easy communication.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Our little meeting ended, and we went to the training ground and watched the warriors do their routines. I felt proud when I saw how Clay managed to handle them, even if he was way younger than him. Camila was watching them as well, and I saw how proud she was too. Who wouldn’t when you see your mate standing out among the others who are more experienced than him?Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Calvin went in front and looked at everyone, who were all in military standing positions. They were looking at him, waiting for whatever he was about to say. “I see how you grow individually in a short span of time. I already see your future getting stronger. Now, I want to know how much you grow in a group,” he said. “With that, I want you to group yourselves into six and have a mini- tournament. This is for today only and will be spectated by his and Her Highness.” I smiled and looked at Matteo. Since we are already in a war, why not try to relax for a bit?
We got in our seats and waited for the mini-tournament to start. I was happy that Calvin thought of something like this. He is indeed a capable beta. I looked at James and found him looking happy too. He must have been waiting for this to happen; he is the type who wants to see everyone around him improve. The warriors were all excited as well, and even if I already knew that they were training together before this, I couldn’t help but wonder who was strong among them.
The warriors and fighters are lined up, and they seem excited to test their teamwork. It’s great to know that they are open to that, even though they are from a different pack. If only all packs in all regions were like theirs, it would be so nice to live by chance. Why can’t everyone be like them? Maybe this is the time to completely change our species. We need to make them understand that everyone has the right to live in peace and quiet. I stared at Matteo and noticed that he was staring at me, which is why I raised my eyebrows at him and waited for whatever he wanted to say.
“Why do you seem happy?” he asked, but I had a feeling he already knew the reason. Even
though I want others to become like this region, I know that’s what he has in mind too. I smiled at him because he would be a good king of the whole kingdom, including the other species. Even with humans, because I know that he is very fair and just. He is not the type of king who will take advantage of his subjects, and I, as his queen, will do everything to support him for the good of all.
“You already know the reason; why do you need to ask?” I answered.
“I just want to make sure.” He said that then he held my hand. I am happy that I can feel his emotions and know that he is at peace, even though there is danger lurking around us. We know that there is always a threat to us, and we also know that as long as we are together and on the right, there is nothing anyone who wants to bring us down can do. I can say that even though we are new, our relationship is already strong. And it’s thanks to our mate bond and our love for each other that makes us stronger and stronger.
We both looked at the warriors, who made a circle to have a space in the middle where their group training would take place. It will be like a royal rumble, and we will surely think of all the possible ways to win as a team. Each team is, of course, made up of warriors from different packs. I saw Calvin and James, who went to the center and started announcing their teammates and opponents. The best thing about it is that the two of them are there and will be team leaders. It seems that I am also intrigued by which of the teams they were leading will win.
And the match has started, and I can say that I am very excited. Although I had expectations, I
made sure to keep them to a minimum since I knew it was just training. Calvin’s team is all big guys, and I see that they have an advantage when it comes to body built. On the other hand, James’ team is all trackers. Meaning, good at finding anything or anyone. Who will win? I don’t want to push anyone, and I can also see the excitement on the faces of the palace warriors when the two fight, even though they are not sparring. “Look at the two, and they look excited too,” Matteo said, to which I also nodded.
“Yes, and the way they look at each other, it’s like they’re telling each other to bring it on, boy. They look very hyped, too. Calvin, because he’s the one who was left here to train them when we went back to the palace, and James is to test what they have learned from him. I think they still learned a lot from Calvin, even though they are used to training together. Their footing is very stable, and the speed of the trackers is unbeatable. Well, compared to the Lycans, they won’t win, but when combined with sharp thinking, they have a good chance if they maintain their speed. I mean, speed and strength plus critical thinking can lead them to victory
.
The tournament went well, and I noticed that they wanted more, but we already had a winner. I then thought of making this activity regular not only in this region but also in others. It will also be a way to build camaraderie with each other and alliances between neighboring packs. We thought of letting the winning team lead their training the next day because of our plan to attack the possible hideout of our enemy. We had a break, but they seemed to be very hungry due to the intense fight. I couldn’t help but smile because I already see the future of the entire kingdom after we defeated the enemy, and I hope it will happen soon.
“It is going to be soon, baby. I make sure to put an end to my uncle’s madness. No matter where
he was hiding, I will find a way to get to him and put him where he should belong.” I looked at him, and judging by the look on his face, it appeared that he saw through me. He knew exactly what I was thinking, and I couldn’t help but admire and love him even more.
“And I am going to be here, supporting you all the way,” I replied.
