Chapter 96 GraysonPOV: “I know you're probably scared and | know you probably think we're here to hurt you | want you to know that is the last thing | want,” | addressed the waking rouges in my cells as the day began.

“You will be given food, clothes, water, if you have any need of medical treatment it will be provided. | understand certain promises may have been made to you but know this the man who made them is a demon. He will double-cross you and I intend to kill him for the things he’s done to my family,” they all poked over at each other wide-eyed and confused.

“Ill let you get used to your surroundings and eat your breakfasts. If you have any questions please give them to my Beta Matthew,” Matt nodded to them and then we exited. We heard them murmuring to themselves about what was going on..

“I thought that their war was over,” one of them whispered.

“No one said anything about the other alpha still being alive,” “I thought he was beaten,” | smirked to myself it appeared my gplan was the right one. A few days of rest and relaxation should loosen their tongues.

They were given simple meals, anything truly delicious would be used as leverage and | kept the room just cold enough to warrant want of layers. They were given basic garments and shoes.

They were seen by the River Phase pack physician. Two of them were dehydrated one of them had a small respiratory Infection.

A part offelt pity for them and | wished that they hadn’t been put into this mess, but at the very least they now had a chance at a better life.

One day went by and when the next morning meal c| walked back into the room.

“How are you all feeling?” | asked aloud to them.

The big one stood up. “Fine,” | kept in a smirk at his attempt to play tough. He was lacking in many aspects if he wanted to takeon he'd need more than grit.

“Who hired you?” | began my interrogation.

“Marcus Cathal he’s an alpha for the Crescent Bane pack,” the guy shrugged.

“That he is,” | sat down. “What did he hire you for?” 1/4 Chapter 96 “How do we know you won't kill us the second you get your information,” the man shot back a question. “We know how packs feel about rogues,” “Are you fugitives?” | looked over them.

“No, well not truly,” he looked over at the girl.

“My pack callsone but it’s just because | refused to marry my heir,” | could see true fear in her eyes.

| wished for my wife she'd comfort her and tell her what she needed to hear. She’d promise them haven and mean it, her sincerity shining through.

“If that’s true we will not turn you away.” | kept my face passive. | didn’t know them and she could have been lying tobut a girl that young probably wasn’t.

“If you're no threat to us you can stay and you'll be welcomed,” | promised.

“He hired us to go to his lands sniff around and see if there was any scent of other wolves,” the big one informed me.

“Where did you meet him?” “Parking lot in Seattle,” he shrugged.

Damn. He'd been sniffing around there a lot but | couldn’t get on him staying there. | could however reach out to the Alphas of Seattle and see if they knew anything.

“Did you hear anything about a woman named Annette she looks like this,” | turned over a tablet with my wife's picture on it.

Seeing her smile in the photo made my gut twist.

“Nope doesn’t look familiar,” the guy shook his head.

“And you didn’t hear mention of her.” | scanned their faces.

“No,” they all answered.

“Liar,” | looked at the young boy next to his sister and pointed at him.

“She’s my wife tellwhat you know,” | pressed him walking up to the cage his sister put an arm over him.

“I just heard them say she’s still asleep that’s it,” the kid went wide eyed. “I'm not even sure that’s who they were talking about,” It was enough though. If | knew she was with him or he had someone watching her. That was enough if | found him I'd find Annette.

“Thank you,” | nodded to him.

| headed out ready to send srequests to the alphas of Seattle and it’s a gift or two. | wanted my wife back and Id 2/4 Chapter 96 go broke to do it.

“Send a gift to the four alphas of Seattle | want them in good spirits when | ask the favor of intel,” | spoke to Matt. “Let’s send them our finest pelts and a set of emerald earring for their wives,” | smiled.

“Expensive,” Matt gaveraised brows.

“One of them knows you and | both are aware of that no wolf sets foot in a city without the pack alphas being aware. | want them to see they made friends with the wrong wolf,” “Yes sir,” Matt gavea tight-lipped nod. I'm sure he thought this frivolous but what else was | to do? My mother-in-law metup at the top steps and handed off my son. “He's been eating now,” she was heavily annoyed that the trick Lilianna gavewas working. She wantedto be a villain even at the expense of her grandson.

“Thank you, Eva,” | took my son from her and patted his back as we walked.

“They've talked then?” Leon started walking next to me.

“Yes. | think they have more to tell us but they're still hesitant. That's fine | have enough | need I've got a thread now it’s tto pull,” “Sounds good to me,” Leon smiled. He was an optimist and saw the good in life, much like my wife.

| looked down at our son he had her nose thank the goddess but his hair was black like mine. He was our mixture an heir with hopefully the better parts of both of us.

I had to bring her hfor his sake, | wouldn't know how to raise a health alpha all on my own | wanted him to be caring like her and to see the good in others the way she does.

Two days later | went back down to the cells to see there was anything else they’d give me.

“So you'll even let us stay?” The girl looked over atwith zero trust.

“There's shere you may not want to take in,” The big one sighed. “If you don’t take us all we will leave and won't bother you again,” “Explain,” | set my face. | figured one of them had to be a fugitive.

“I'm pregnant,” the young girl looked away in shame. “I got pregnant by a different wolf than my betrothed.

They found out and banished me, my brother followed me,” she held his hand and kept her face towards the wall.

Poor thing. She had probably been put in the world’s worst circumstances.

“And your baby’s father?” | looked at the ground.

“He was the one who turnedin,” she sniffled.

“I'll have you seen too right away for your baby’s sake and yours you'll be given extra portions of food and yes.

All of 3/4 Chapter 96 you will be able to stay,” | agreed.

“He’s out of money and turning to people for lours. He's promised your land to other Alphas. He's desperate and he sent us to his one not to see if you would attack but if the diag Lycan Council would,” the big one gave up the information.

“You will be given places to settle in the younger ones will be given a hwith a family that’s willing to take them in and you'll be tattooed as part of our pack. Break my trust and you'll be behended, all of you,” They seemed to understand the threat and the promise they had to make. | would tattoo the younger ones but they’d be welcto stay and take the pledge when they were of ag..

We could use new wolves with all we'd lost in the war. Annette would have been appalled to hear the young girl's story I'm sure my wife would take a liking to her when she ch My cousin had given us a doctor since mine had been let go. She seemed a samunt woman, she inspected the young girl and her and her baby were alright for not having steady stream of nutrition.

They were released, and now | needed to find out at where he was getting his mutry and resources Then I'd have to burn them to the ground.
