Pov-

"They don't have her in the pack." Beck says.

"Are you sure?!"

"Yes. We immediately set up surveillance when we arrived, a few hours after he attacked us. He returned yesterday to his pack and was only with his men.

"Yesterday? That is three days after he took her."

"He must have taken her somewhere else."

"But where!?" I punch the table.

Beck shakes his head. "I do not know but...he brought more men with him. Many more than what he had before."

"Ezra. He must have given her to Ezra and he paid him for it." James says. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net.

"We have been watching Ezra since before Oliver betrayed us. There has been no new activity with him. He might not even know of what has happened." Says Garret. "But there is a possibility that you are right. However, they could have her somewhere else and not in the pack itself."

"Keep an extra watch on Ezra and Oliver but now I want you to focus on what is at hand. We attack the river backs tonight." Victor says.

There is nothing that I can do now. I feel so useless. She needs me and here I am unable to help her. It had marked her, I might have had a chance to find her, to sense her. But no, we had to play these f*****g games!

"So we are coordinating two attacks at the same time?"

Archie-the beta -says.

Victor nods. "Yes. We have enough men to do this and easily overpower them."

"But this leaves our own pack defenseless." Old man Rodrick says.

Garret nods. "I know. It is a risk but one they do not expect. If we take one pack first, then the other pack will be alerted. Ezra will use this to his advantage, having that pack join him. If we take them both out, it will be a huge blow to Ezra's alliance." Victor nods. "Alright. I trust you." He looks at me. "Will you be joining us? We need everyone we can ge

I close my eyes and nod. "I will."

All I really want to do is focus on finding Cass but I don't know where to even start. Is she even alive?

I shake my head and will myself not to think that.

Honestly, if it was left to me, I would attack Oliver first but then we would be opened to the river pack's attack who are much closer to us and have attacked before. So I guess that this is the best course of action.

When the meeting is over, I go to the parlor where I indulge myself with a drink.

I feel a gentle hand on my shoulder. Startled-I did not sense anyone walking in-I turn around.

"Hey." Julia says.

I look at her with confusion.

"I thought you were going to be taken away?" I ask her.

"Well with the pack being under attack, they let me stay. So now we are at war with Alpha Oliver too?"

"Yeah. I am pretty sure that man is crazy. What he did to us did not come from a sane person."

"What if all the packs suddenly turn against us?"

She asks.

"That would be problematic."

"Maybe then I'll get to stay."

I look at her trying to see what are her intention to say this.

"I really don't want to go, Colt."

"You should have thought about that before you did what you did."

"What do you expect? I love-"

"STOP! You stop right there!

I don't want you and I never will! Get that through your damn head!"

She looks surprised and distraught. "Why are you saying this?"

"Because I was too nice before! And I am tired of the way you are acting. Grow up! You are not a child and you can't have everything you want just because you want it! I am not and will never be yours." "You don't have to be so cruel!" She gets up and runsout crying.

"Yes, I do. Maybe you'll get it through your head now." I mutter.

I am pissed and maybe I took it out on her but it needed to be said.

"I'd say you handled that pretty well." Dash says

walking in. "She's a crazy one too. Do you think there is something in the water?"

I have no desire to engage in conversation at the moment.

I just turn around and ignore him.

He sits next to me also drinking and stays quiet. My sister and brother now walk in.

Bryn stomps towards me with the sign-up that reads. "If Cass doesn't come back, will I stay like this forever?!"

"It depends. As long as she is...alive..." My eyes widen. "If you can't talk, it means that she is still alive!"

I have to confirm this so I leave them, rush upstairs, and barge into Alpha Warrick's room.

"Colt! What are you doing?!"

Lotus shouts at me having startled her.

"I am sorry but I need to know something."

Warrick opens his eyes. The bastard is still alive and doesn't seem to want to die.

It has been three days since the Doctor said that he might not survive the night but here he is. Though I have to admit, he is not looking any better.

"If Cass...if she was dead, would that mean that anyone who was under her power would be released from that control?"

"You...want to know that if I die, you would all be released from my power?"

"Yes, but it's not about you. I... I need to know if she is alive. I need to know that Cass is alive...please..."

He stares at me for a moment and then nods. "If I were to die, you would all be released of my control and power. So it is the same for her."

Hope rises inside of me. She is alive and as long as my sister can't talk-as bad as it sounds- I know she will be alive.

I give Warrick a nod. "Thank you. She is still alive."

"Good. Get her back." He says and then closes his eyes again.

"You got what you need now let him rest." Lotus waves me away.

Feeling just a bit better, I walk out and get ready for tonight.

Just wait my love. Once we are done with this, we'll go after Oliver and find out what he has done with you.

Night comes and the battle starts. We attacked and they were not expecting us this night but they were still prepared.

"Put him down!" I shout.

The men around me fight to get to an enemy who wields a fucking Gatling gun. Yes, a fucking Gatling gun! He already put a few of my men down but now he has to reload.

"Get to him before he finishes!"

I slash at an enemy who tries to come at me, getting him right in the throat. When the man falls, my eyes go back to my men who run as fast as they can and as the man finishes and is about to start his assault, they swarm him like rabid dogs and rip him apart. This damn pack is small but they have a few things that help them against us like that gun. They had two of those but Garret's men already took out the one on the other side of the field. Soon after that, Garret and his men disappeared inside the enemy's pack house. "Lend me a hand here mother fucker!" Beck shouts in my direction.

I grin as I punch a man, taking him to his knees. "You can't handle it?" I yell Back.

He is far away but I can hear him perfectly.

"My men were the front line!

Half of them are gone, asshole!" Beck breaks a man's neck and goes to the next one.

"You'll be fine! Retreat and hold the back line. I'll handle the rest here!"

He gives me a nod and he and what is left of his men fall back.

Most of our men are shifted but Generals stay in human form to be able to give orders unless there is no reason to.

Within a few minutes, Garret comes out of the pack house dragging the Alpha's body with him. He throws the body at the ground and gives a growl that gets everyone's attention.

"Your Alpha is dead! You belong to the Dark Fand Pack now! Submit!"

The enemy-taken by surprise-look at each other and then immediately some start to kneel. But not all of them do.

"Submit, or die. It is that simple!" Garret announces.

And with that, the rest follow.

With this win, it means the Dark Fang territory has expanded because it is right next to our own territory.

Unfortunately, this is not a good thing. Many will take this to be a dangerous move and not to mention that Victor is attacking the pack that is right next to this one right now so that is twice the territory gain in just one night.

Thia was a win and just how Garret predicted. This is why he is the main practitioner. He is good.

It takes us all day the next day to get our affairs in order and head back to the main pack house to have a meeting. This time, Garret puts a different plan in motion. We need these men to be loyal to us but we can't take them with us because it is a whole two packs. We don't have the space for them. And if we left them with their word only, they could go back to Ezra for help. Usually what would happen is that Warrick would command them to be loyal but we can't do that a the moment.

So Garret thought it would be a good idea, to take two family members from every family in the packs and take them to our pack as an incentive. If they step out of line, their family members will be killed. It sounds bad but I understand how well this will work. They took mostly women and children. If I was seeing all of this from the outside, I would definitely consider us to be the bad guys.

He did tell them that once this war is over and they have done their part, their family members will be given back.

Now back at the pack, I wait as Victor and Garret report what happened in each battle and I have to say, I do not feel very patient but I have no choice, I wait. When finally they are done and now start talking about our next move, that is when I chime in. "Oliver is next, right?"

Victor looks at me and then nods. "Yes. Alpha Oliver is next. He is going to pay for what he did and then...then we'll get our Alpha back."

Our Alpha...my Angel. We are coming for you next.
