The Wolf In Me Chapter 76: Part 4 Tricked

Luka's POV

Going through the plan for the last time with the council, we have come to an agreement that this was
the best option and the most convenient one. No words could describe how proud I was to see my son
achieving in contenting the council as it was always a difficult task to do.

"Alpha Dale, if you may inform your pack that we will be all meeting up at noon like we discussed. I will
be asking another pack to back us up whilst you Lylah, inform the other witches to join us in this.
Mason, I need you by my side to help me in settling everything else. The rest may leave. Discussion is
over," I said, moving towards the bottle of whisky.

The sound of the chairs moving and chattering was slowly fading until the room emptied. Turning back
towards the desk as I held the half-full whisky glass, there was only my son who was smiling from ear
to ear.

"You are mentally ready to lead. It's in your blood. You are not a child any more kid. I can sense that
you are going to be the best alpha king to have ever lived," I said, stopping to take a sip from the drink.

"Nah, that can never be a dad. I can never take that title from you. However, thanks to you, I am feeling
more confident that my plan is going to save a lot of people."

"Are you ready?" I asked, looking at the watch.

"As ready as can be," he nodded, standing from his seat to make his way to the hall to get the pack
moving.

Mason's POV

Carol was by my side fidgetting with her hair, observing her surroundings to connect with the
environment around her, whilst getting prepared for the plan. As she was busy doing her thing I raised



my left hand to get everyone's attention without making too much noise, considering we were not so far
from the yellow stone pack's territory.

"Is everyone ready?" I asked, taking the lead whilst dad was walking towards me gesturing to start
moving.

My body felt tense as we drew closer towards the highly fortified walls, knowing that there was no going
back now. Melody made her way closer to the fortification and I could notice her chanting from afar.
Moments later I could see the wall fading and that was the sign to get going.

A large number of wolves before me was quietly following my lead as we passed through and into the
other side, moving closer towards the entrance door whilst Nelly was already in front of us chanting to
unlock it. Father was waiting with his group away from the yellow pack's sight until I could make my
way in.

Lylah, who was busy observing through a window to see if their halls were empty, sent a signal for us to
wait a moment. She quickly made a sleeping spell on the few guys that were guarding the door against
the inside, then gestured for us to slowly walk in safely.

For now, I was feeling that my plan was working and so I felt more at ease. My group was to take the
left wing of the house pack whilst dad took his to the right and Alpha Dale motioned for the rest to make
their way upstairs. Smiling excitedly I gestured for everyone to each take their places by a bedroom
door and wait for my signal.

Alpha Dale's POV

As I made my way up with my team, I observed the area to familiarise myself with it whilst checking for
any passer-by. The enchantress was by my side, busy putting two tall guys to sleep with a spell before
we continued to go further in. I motioned with my arms for half of my group to walk to the left-wing
whilst I covered the right side with the rest. I knew that Alpha Marcus's room was on this site and it was



only right for me to be the one responsible to take care of him. One of my pack stayed by the staircase
to give me a sign when everyone downstairs was settled as planned.

"At the ready," I mind linked the alpha king.

Luka's POV

"Now. Go, go, go, go, go" I said quickly and in a low tone.

Everyone swiftly made their way into the bedrooms whilst I mind linked Mason.

"Go Mason, go."

I stayed outside the corridor in case of emergency whist the packs were in a bedroom injecting the
yellow pack to remain asleep. The plan was successful so far and now all we had to do was to wait for
alpha Dale's group to come down with alpha Marcus to have a nice chat with him.

Moments later I watched two of alpha Dale's pack march their way down the stairs with alpha Marcus
in front of them with his arms bound looking shocked by our surprise visit. Alpha Dale was right behind
and quickly made his way by my side as I took the last few steps forward.

"What's the meaning of this? Guards!" Alpha Marcus shouted, trying to break free from the two large
wolves that were holding him by his shoulders.

"Don't bother wasting your energy. Everyone is fast asleep safely in their beds," alpha Dale explained,
grinning at him.

Frowning, alpha Marcus stopped pushing and pulling, knowing that he has been defeated.

"Marcus, you have a choice to make. You either stop this fight amongst our kind, or I have to take
action and bring you down. You know the consequences of your pack end up without an alpha by their



side," I said firmly, frowning at him.

"No. This is my pack alpha king. No one has the right to take them from me."

"You have until sundown to make a decision. Until then, you are coming with us," I motioned for
everyone to get moving as we made our way out, marching towards my packhouse.

Mason's POV

"Well done son. This was a great plan. Now let's hope that we will convince alpha Marcus to make the
right decision. We have the chance of saving a lot of wolves by avoiding war," he said as we made our
way into my father's office.

Taking the glass of whisky from my father's hand, I took my first sip, wincing as it touched my tongue. I
watched as my father chuckled, joining him with a grin.

"It's strong," I explained, raising the glass, "but it's good."

"Cheers son," he said, clinking our glasses together.

"I am more convinced than ever that my pack is will soon be in safe hands."

"What do you mean dad, near future?"

"You are almost nineteen now and you are old enough to lead. I am planning to start the preparations
for the ceremony. Whilst I will remain alpha king, I need you to lift a weight off my shoulder and be in
charge of our pack."

Smiling, I observed my father's expression for a moment, then nodded in agreement.



"Thank you for trusting me with our pack. I accept your offer whenever you decide to make me their
alpha. I feel ready."

Dad drank the last bit from his glass before making his way out to have a word with alpha Marcus who
was being kept in one of our prison cells. Leaving my empty glass on the desk I marched behind him
hoping that we would convince him to settle things the right way.

Setting afoot on the damp floors of the dungeon, I followed my father, stopping just in front of Marcus's
cell. His eyes were observant, and I could tell that he was in deep thought. Alpha Dale joined us but
remained quiet for half of the conversation whilst dad took the lead to try persuading the hard-headed
wolf behind the bars.

"So, it is almost dusk. Your time will be up soon enough. Your pack is still fast asleep, so don't think of
waiting it out until they come to rescue you. You are a lone wolf. Have you made up your mind?"

Alpha Marcus inhaled and breathed out his anxiety as he sat down on a chair crossing his legs.

"Ten wolves from my pack were killed by a group from your pack alpha Dale, some of which were teen
wolves. What would you say to their mothers and fathers?"

Alpha Dale decided to remain silent and only turned his eyes towards my
dad.
