I Scored Myself A Mate

"How could my son be such an idiot? Not only did he not manage to get rid of those idiots but he actually lost a bunch young ones too. And! From what I've heard that hunter kid has returned back with Theseus' order meaning that there is a vengeful kid out there knowing about the portal and the compound." Adam whined and kicked the white char that was placed on his room. He seemed very annoyed at how things had ended up turning out and he believed that if he didn't deal with these nuisances himself no one would get rid of his troubles for him.

Right now there were two things that needed to be done with no further delay and for many hours he had been thinking a way for his plans to succeed this time. First, he desperately needed Alex dead, that unknown power was better kept sealed away and he could get his son's royalty back. He wouldn't have to think about how to convince him to do something, he would blindly do it just like before. Especially now that his best friend who seemed to be the only spec of reason, seemed to be dying it was the perfect chance for him to start taking him back. By the time he would wake up, if he did at all it would be too late to put some sense into him. The problem was though, that Luke had failed his mission, meaning that he would probably start to question his instructions. He needed to find a way and boost up his ego, make him feel like he was in charge again while he got what he wanted. 

"What if he comes back with a lot more of his own? While we are back home?" Daniel asked, the fear obvious in his eyes. He had always been like this, scared of everything and sometimes Adam wanted to punch him, just so he would shut up. It wasn't like he couldn't do it but sometimes he would get flashes of the past and he would find himself hesitating.

"He is just a kid" Markus said as he sat on his own bed, fixing the soft pillow behind his back. "I don't think we need to be afraid."

"We will see." Adam said while rubbing his chin. He didn't know if he should be worried about that at the moment but it was definitely concerning. He would have to find a way to protect the pact, if things ended up them being all alone and helpless he needed to form a plan so they could survive. There was the possibility of moving but they had worked hard to accomplish everything here. Nonetheless there was no point in worrying. They would think something later on.

His second problem now was Theseus and it was strictly personal. He despised the way he had belittled his people and treated them like they were beneath them. He wanted to use this party as an excuse to humiliate him. As soon as he heard about the date he would be sure to start telling his closest people the ways their plan would evolve. Maybe if he was lucky enough, he could combine Alex's death with the elves. That could be like winning the lottery but it would need extra planning. He did have a lot of ideas he just needed the perfect way to execute them. 

"I am worried about Luke. Alex left him, his best friend is practically dying because someone stabbed him with a silver blade dipped in wolf's bane and he led many of his own friends to their deaths. All that because of you Adam" Markus commented making him laugh. The scarred man looked at him, rolling his eyes. It was trued that he had managed to keep their pack alive through many difficulties and deep down he cared about his people but his personality was shady, and sometimes Markus wondered if he was getting insane, having rejected his mate and all. It was sometimes a natural result, especially if you loved their mate. 

"We need to be rid of dangerous humans and the elves Markus. I need Luke to start acting more like a leader and not like love struck fool and for now I need him to do as I say. For all of us. He can't bring Alex into the pack, I can sense it, his aura? His attitude, he is not normal and they need to be separated. I need him to become his old self"

"It seems like Alex already dumped him though." Daniel said "All you do now is manipulating him into crappy decisions that ruin him."

"I am forcing him into decisions that make Alex hate him. It's good that they are separated and we need to keep it that way. At least until Alex is dead, then he can mourn and do whatever he wants I do not care. All I want is Alex away from the pack" 

Markus knew how smart Adam could be. Of course he would have realized that the sleeping king was a threat, probably from the first moment he saw his mark. Acting like he didn't care, doing visibly nothing he observed. He was aware of everything that was happening in the compound and even if Markus tried to intervene, trying to keep the important information secret there were only a few things he could keep to himself. The important thing was that they didn't exactly know who Alex was and yes, he for sure if he awakened could pose a threat and considering the pack's wellbeing he should agree with his death but all Markus could see was a boy, Atalanti's son, who went through so much just to face a horrible death. So he couldn't say it. He couldn't reveal his secret because for many years he had lived with the guilt, the guilt of his people being too greedy, too heartless.

"For now we need Alex and Luke separated, at all costs." Daniel agreed. "If things go well we might not need to kill him. They might end up hating each other. I mean Luke did a good job without us having to intervene that much. Who would knew Adam that your son would be as crappy in love as you are"

"Shut up Daniel. And no, Alex has to die. They are mates, meaning they won't be able to resist each other. We need something more" he said and his eyes widened as he smiled viciously. "Be a good boy and go fetch me Lily, Daniel. Now" 

Lily was sitting close to Sam's bed looking at the beat up boy. It took quite a while for him to recover, Luke had left him almost half dead while he tried to interrogate them. So now the man was lying in the infirmary, barely able to speak. Their infirmary was more like a hospital, it almost fit two hundred beds and she wondered if they had the idea of a hospital here. She hadn't seen any mobile phones or televisions and definitely didn't hear any cars. On the other hand, they didn't seem to need cars, seeing Ea and Theseus teleport many times. 

"I…will kill him"

"Yeah, yeah big boy I am sure about that." She said and handed him a glass of water, with the cold around the glass almost seemed like it was getting crystalized. It looked very pretty even though it stung her palm. 

"I am serious. I am done with him. He acts like he is better than all of us."

"That's because he is Sam, he is the next Alpha." 

"You know, if he dies I am the next in line." He told her barely making any sound. "My dad, he was Adam's brother but he died during the war. Then he forgot about my family and acted like we didn't exist."

"I know Adam is shit. Luke is not like That though" 

"Even after everything he did to you, you still defend him"

"I am sorry about that. Can't help it" Obviously Lily did not want to defend him. She wanted to do anything but that but still she didn't believe he was so bad. He was definitely not like his father. 

Soon after Sam kept talking about getting revenge Daniel appeared in front of them, he came close and whispered something to Lily's ear making her stand up immediately. Sam hated them. All those people who ruled over. He dragged her away while her expression only showed anxiousness. They would make her do something again because they were horrible. 

Maybe they didn't believe him, maybe they thought that he couldn't do it but he would. Even if no one heard him he would take revenge on him, the one who belittled him, the one who made him feel like a shadow all his life. He even had the audicity to hurt him like this because he knew he couldn't retaliate because of his father. It was great hiding behind someone's power like that. Not for long though, it was time for the poeple who had been wronged in this pack to do something. 

He would find a way to kill Luke and become the next Alpha.
