Chapter 102
[ALPHA DOMINIC’s Point of View]
My brain kept convincing me that I had to stay and solve this.
But my heart and feet wanted to go to where my car was parked, drive back to the Pack Manor, and stay with my mate and the twins.
I studied all the damage that happened at the eastern borders of my turf. I stood atop the concrete wall protecting this part of my territory from the wild beasts of the forest and felt the soft wind blow on my exhausted face. My hands slipped into the pocket of my black pants as I assessed everything that needed to be fixed and let Liam take care of all of this so I could go back to Samantha as fast as I could.
This poison infected twenty of my elite patrolmen and guards, causing them to go berserk and attack those around them. The healers were still working on it, and Liam told me they should report by this day while I still had time to attend to what happened in this place.
“Alpha,” Liam immediately approached me the second my feet landed on the ground. “The rest of the elite guards and patrolmen are already waiting for your orders. Most of them are convinced that the culprits who did this to their friends are still in the forest and they wanted to raid the place to get rid of those bastards.”
“We are not sure what these devils have in their minds, Liam. Gather our men and wait until I decide to deploy them. We can’t go into that forest and fight when we are not sure yet what kind of poison our soldiers got from that fog. We need to wait for the healers until they generate an effective antidote. That’s when we attack.”
Liam nodded. I understood how upset he was. Those men had been with him since he became the Beta of the pack and seeing them suffer from that f*cking poison makes him enraged. I turned to him and hesitated to go straight to the healer’s tent when I noticed the pain and perturbation in Liam’s eyes.
“Liam,” I said with a firm voice and looked at him with grim eyes.
“Yes.” His jaw tightened and he wasn’t able to look me in the eyes. As his Alpha, I felt his strong desire to avenge his men. “I know how badly you want to go out there. But you are the only person I trust here, Liam. I can’t lose you as well. I need you to stay here and let our soldiers do the raid. Have faith that they can do it. They are trained very well and we have the strongest soldiers on this continent. They can do this.”
