The Wannabe Warrior
Chapter 112

Zane POV

Gerome woke us up.

Saying something about hacking a computer, and I wanted to just stay in bed a little longer, though when I heard Madison in the shower, I couldn’t resist, joining her.

Entering the bathroom, I saw her struggling, against the urge to play with herself. Her scent of arousal was strong in the air. I couldn’t resist helping with that need. She is so cute when she tries to deny her desire, I helped her out regardless of her protests.

After our showering, we headed downstairs for a bite to eat before we found Gerome.

The kitchen was full of the smell of dinner cooking, making Madison and my stomachs grumble at the same time. We chuckled and headed to the fridge, hunting down anything to growled Mary, in her attempt to sound stern.

‘Hi Mary, what have you got available to eat? I am kinda hungry, we slept through breakfast and lunch apparently.’ I asked, using my puppy’s eyes. I know she melts into.

‘Oh, go away with you and those begging eyes of yours, go take a seat at the corner table and I will bring you something. Git both of you.’ she whips her clothes at me, just missing my butt, but I pretend to yelp, which makes Mary chuckle and blush at the same time.

Madison giggles beside me, and I place my hand on her lower back and guide her through the kitchen to the corner table, where we sit and watch the kitchen staff work, while waiting for some food.

Mary is quick with a nice hot steak and vegetables, and we looked at the meal like hungry vultures.

‘Thank you, Mary,’ Madison chimes out just before she takes her first mouthful, and g****s out a soft mew of appreciation, that gets an extra spring in Mary’s step as she walks away from us, to continue with the kitchen duties.

After we ate our fill, I walked Madison to the door of the monitoring room, giving her a sweet k**s and then headed back to dad’s office.

I knocked on his door and waited.

Almost instantly, I heard ‘Enter’ from the partly closed door.

Dad is seated in his chair, and has Graham and Peter seated in front of him. These are to be the Alpha and Beta of the Dark River Pack. Peter is a son of an Alpha, his second son, and not our Warrior Peter. We have so many with similar names it can get confusing. Mitch and Ryan are seated on the sofa, and Jonathon and Alpha Daniel were seated close by.

‘What is going on dad?’ I asked as I made my way over to a chair.

‘We are discussing the Dark River Pack. We were looking at how soon we can appoint Peter as Alpha and Graham as Beta, but first we need to remove the Alpha. He is not responding to my calls, and I cannot seem to get him by mind link.’ Dad says full of concern.

‘The only way to replace out is to go over there, dad. The pack is only a few hours away, we can leave early in the morning with a group of warriors and take him by force.’ I suggest.

‘That sounds great in theory, but we really don’t know what is happening over there. Madison had hacked into their computer before the raids and took a lot of information, but now I want her to look at other areas on the computer before I go on a killing spree.’

‘Like, what? What are you looking for?’ Jonathon asked, confused.

‘Madison said the computer was too easy, the information almost jumping out at her, she felt that something was off, so I have asked her to have another look at the computer history and to look at the beta computer too, maybe he had been chatting to someone about what was going on in the pack.’ Dad said looking at something in a folder on his desk.

‘Did you replace some possible Alpha’s for the other two packs?’ Alpha Daniel queried as he got up and headed to the table holding the coffee pot.

‘We have some retired. Alpha’s going to take over until we replace a better replacement. With their experience, they will be able to assess if anything needs to be done in the packs quickly and give me the heads up. We need to act as fast as we can, we don’t want some upstart thinking, because with the Alpha dead they can just take over the pack.’ Jonathon advises as he too gets up to grab a coffee.

‘When will they take over?’ Peter asked, trying to take in all that was being spoken about, as most of this was news to him.

‘Henderson had already left with his old Beta to take over Alpha Frederick’s pack and we have Alfonso on his way to Alpha Samuels pack’ Alfonso should be there by late this afternoon, and Henderson should arrive in about another hour. Both will inform me when they have settled in and fill me in with the situation.’ Dad said, taking a cup of hot coffee from Jonathon as he started handing out cups of coffee.

‘The other packs that we think are a problem. Are we going to leave the current Alpha’s run for now, while we investigate if they were with the advisor willingly or not?’ I pondered out loud.

‘Yes, son, we do not have enough people to cover them all. I have asked the elders, that I trust, to get involved and to visit these packs and see if they can replace any issues. I am hoping that, with us showing we are prepared to remove any opposing Alpha’s, we will appear serious enough about the attacks and those that showed support of the attackers, that it will make other Alpha’s compliant and then we can keep them wary as we investigate those we have our doubts about. Hopefully, they will mess up and show their hands in this. While we do something with these packs that have lost their Alpha, we cannot appear to be weak in any way, so by sending warriors with our chosen Alpha’s and Beta’s we are making a statement to all packs, that we are the Royal pack and we are strong, and we will not tolerate traitors of any kind.’ Dad said so full of passion and conviction.’
