Chapter 113. Heroic Plan (2)
Elijah Simons sat forward, his attention sharp and unwavering the moment Mr. Frederick revealed the core of the plan. His skeptical expression slowly shifted to one of cautious intrigue.
"How can something like that be possible?" Elijah asked, his brows furrowed. "My record with the park isn’t clean. Everyone remembers what I did—especially Maria."
Mr. Frederick leaned back slightly, his voice calm but deliberate. "I’ve already sent word to Avalon Park. On the day the staff of office is to be delivered to the park house, they’ll strike. The attack will be unexpected, and they’ll target Beta Gilbert and his wife. No one will see it coming—not from Avalon, and certainly not from you."
Elijah’s face began to shift, the corner of his mouth twitching with interest, though his eyes still held some doubt.
"Alright... But where do I come in? Because honestly, I don’t see how this plan alone could overpower the Gilberts and their army of guards," Elijah said, folding his arms across his chest.
Mr. Frederick nodded. "I’m not done. That’s only half of it. I’ve also arranged for chemical agents to be planted around the park house. On the day of the attack, those chemicals will be activated. They’ll weaken every werewolf in proximity—stripping them of their strength temporarily."
At this point, Elijah leaned forward. His expression had changed entirely. There was a glint of excitement in his eyes.
"This is where you and your men come in," Mr. Frederick continued, his tone growing more intense. "No one will know you’re involved. When the attack begins, you’ll step in as the saviors of Blue Moon Park—rescuing the Alphas and driving Avalon back. Everyone will see you as a hero."
Elijah grinned, the idea sinking in like honey. "And with that, I become a contender for the Alpha seat again. I can rebuild everything."
"Exactly," Mr. Frederick said with certainty. "You won’t just be a contender—you’ll be a hero of the people. You’ll have the elders and public opinion on your side."
Elijah’s joy swelled. He threw his head back and laughed heartily, clearly envisioning his victory.
