Chapter 24

“Yeah, even if you do become king of this pack? Other packs? Let’s be for real you can’t save us, you are going to be king of a pack not the whole of Owhen or the world, vampires will never be safe around werewolves, even if we do nothing, we will still get killed,”
He was wrong, yes, I can’t be king of the world but for Owhen? There is only one king, All packs answer to the alpha king, yeah except the blue ray pack, it just had to be the only ones that are not loyal to him, I finally figured out why Father had chosen the Orient, yeah the diamond might be his goal but it was a known fact that father hated that the blue ray pack never pay homage to him or the throne, they were like a lonely pack who did their own thing and associate more with humans than wolves from other packs, I couldn’t blame them they were treated badly by wolves in the past, they grew a thick skin and fought to be free, little wonder why father wanted the pack to be under him too, and he was using us to get his goal, neither I nor Jordan can take over the throne unless father dies and he didn’t look like he was dying anytime soon, he was using us to get what he wanted, the sneaky old wolf, he sure had a huge plan and has just told us part of it.
“You are forgetting that this is Owhen, there is only one king, there is only one royal family, if I become king, I will do everything I say, I don’t even need to be king to keep you safe Raul,”
I responded after a long pause, I was determined beyond anything to become king and put a lot of things right, maybe I could strike a deal with the pack and get the Orient from them, once my place is secured as king, I would return back the land and compensate them too, of course, that was easier said than done, it was more complicated than that, ain’t no way they would agree to a deal like that, especially not with the current value placed on the damn land.
“No offense but I don’t see how your being a king will save me and the likes of me, don’t think so highly of yourself, I don’t trust you or any other wolf out there and I don’t like you, stop acting like we are friends,”
The young boy said, I should give it to him because he had his way with words and was certainly a smart kid with trust issues, I had those too.
“Good, you should not trust so easily, one thing is sure though, I only say the things I can do,”
I replied.
“Yeah, yeah, tell me something I don’t know,”
He said and went to lay on his bed turning his back to me, I let out a sigh realizing the people I choose to let around me were all going through kinds of stuff, I wish I could help them, I wish they will let me help them, as much as I didn’t want to seem controlling and authoritative, I couldn’t leave him like this.
“Raul, I am not going to say this again so you better listen very attentively, I am not going to let you starve to death, I am not going to let you give up on life, so you better get off that bed right now or I am going to lift you up myself and take you to the kitchen where they will spoon feed you, pick one, going on your own or being forced to,”
I threatened meaning every word, he must have read the seriousness in my voice because he stood up and walked out of the room leaving me behind, I smiled and followed him until he got to the kitchen and sat down at the dining table.
“Please give him food, I will make sure he finishes itNôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
