A few days later when Silas arrived at the palace, he looked worn out, scared shitless and trembled like a coward. He didn't know what happened and what kind of political turmoil that the king concocted in his name.
"I will give you a hundred thousand warriors to take what is yours." Dacre sat in his throne, while Silas was kneeling down in front of him, confused.
"But, you have sent me with two thousand warriors earlier." Silas shook his head. "My king, I don't understand what all of this about."
If only the king didn't 'kidnap' him, he might be able to get his title as the alpha of the River Creek pack, after all alpha Khaos had secured the situation there, the problem was only with his sister, who became even crazier than the last time he met her.
"You don't need to ask so many questions. Follow my instruction and you will get the glory that you deserved."
Dacre agreed with Khaos that they needed someone like Silas to sit on the position, since he was very easy to be manipulated, but little did Khaos know, his idea would backfire on him. Dacre adopted the suggestion and made a little bit improvement here and there.
Two thousand warriors that he sent with Silas earlier was only a pretense. It would put Silas in good light that he came in peace, but his brother, Rhett, wanted to take control over the pack, giving the title to himself as the alpha.
And with Khaos now was taking control over the pack and his 'attempt' to kill Silas, people could see how greedy he was to reign over two packs, especially with the record of him killing one of the elders from River Creek pack, it was enough to support the rumor that currently spread around like a wildfire.
After all, Dacre's target was not Rhett, but Khaos.
"My king... alpha Khaos is a battle hardened warrior, even though he can't shift into his beast, but he has royal warriors under his control... he also has a lot of battle experience, while me..." Silas cleared his throat. He didn't continue, since he was well aware it would be arduous to compare himself to him. "I think it will be better to summon alpha Khaos and let him to explain himself."
However, the king simply chuckled. "You don't need to worry about that, you will only be embarrassed yourself if you tried to make a plan."
Silas shut his mouth and lowered his head. He knew that he was not smart enough to know any better in this situation.
A moment later, a royal healer asked for audience with the king and Dacre dismissed Silas.
"There is news?" Dacre beckoned the healer to come closer. All the healer in the palace was wearing white dress, but the head healer was wearing green dress.
"Yes, my king." The healer came forward and the king dismissed all the warriors and guards around him, leaving the throne room empty. "Congratulation, my king. The queen is with a baby."
Dacre's smile was wider and his eyes were softer when he heard that. He immediately stood up from his throne and shifted into his beast, so he could reach his queen faster. His heart swelled with happiness.
