Chapter 63: Oh well... Here you are, little brother!
Silence reigned in the tent for a long moment after Kai explained why they needed a vampire. Alpha Xander was baffled. Why take the vampire to Thegara when they could simply bring the physician here and decrease the risk? But he refrained from asking since there must be a reasonable justification for this that made His Highness risk.
"Your Highness, we need a harness to restrain the vampire and..."
"We have a cage here, don’t we?" Axe, now standing, interrupted him, pointing toward an iron cage in the corner of the tent.
"Oh, yes! A dog was infected. We tried to heal the animal, but it didn’t make it. The fever took the poor thing."
Axe pouted. So many animals would die because of Luther’s greed.
"That will work. Are they still lurking in the forest?" Kai asked.
Alpha Xander nodded. "There must be plenty on the other side of the lake."
Kai rose to his feet and turned. "We’ll catch one and kill the rest."
"Your Highness, please stay here. We will catch one for you. Now that Luther is behind this, please don’t get close to their nests."
Kai’s glare was sharp, unyielding. "I’m not afraid of Luther. If he wants me, let him come. I’ll face him and send him back to my father again. However, he is tempting me to kill him this time. He had put a finger on something which is mine."
Axe coughed to clear his throat. "Now that Shadow has awakened, Luther must be crying!" He laughed sheepishly.
