The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 609

How did these people know Andrew was with us? I studied the fight carefully, and they were trying to get to our van, so it meant they weren't there for Andrew but for Sylvester and the lords.

"Let's help them," Sylvester ordered, and I fought his command. He was my king and had power over me, but I wasn't a pushover either.

"No!" I said with my command, and he was stunned because he felt it. There was a general misconception of me being weak, but I was born of two alphas. I wasn't weak, just peace-loving.

"I do not want them to know you are in Mountian. If they do, they will regroup and come back. Please, you must remain here," I pleaded with him and the others.

He studied me a bit, and I knew it was difficult for them, but they agreed to remain in the van.

I wondered if this was how useless we would be in battle with the cult. This was an eye-opener as I could see why they said we would need Yuri's men.

How could we fight these things in a fair fight? Seeing they were entirely shifted made me know there was no silver in the air, so I exited the van and shifted to join the battle.

Getting Black to take over wasn't easy, but he did eventually. I noticed that I could only shift when I moved away from Clay. I made a mental note not to go near him, then linked the Kappa driving to plead with my guest not to come out of the van because I noticed they had stopped trying to get to the van, which meant they believed there was no one there.

Clay was like a blur; he moved swiftly and aimed for the attackers. Andrew was fast, but Clay was faster. I could see that Clay was superior to Andrew.

I held my ground with my claws. I went for their necks. The attackers were not as fast as Clay, but they were as fast as Andrew, and I did not need to guess whether they were immune to silver or not. It was obvious they were.

I bit the hind leg of one that tried to pounce on me. My only advantage over the attackers was that my wolf was bigger, and I was Alpha. They fought my stare and dominance, giving me an edge over them.

A paw was used to hit my side, and I felt the claws dig into my flesh.

It made Black whimper, but instead of falling, we turned to face the attacker and used our claws to rip his throat open.

I watched the wolf fall to the ground and moved to the next one. By the time we were through, I was injured, followed by Andrew, with Clay having the most minor injuries.

I knew it was because of his speed; he could easily dodge an attack. Where we struggled with our opponents, he thrived due to his speed and agility. I succeeded because of my alpha command. It made the attackers wary of attacking me. Unlike in the north, where I was handicapped with silver. This time I had access to my wolf and command.

Clay took down five attackers, Andrew took down three, and I was able to finish off four, just a number shy of Clay's body count. I was proud of myself.

The moment Clay moved closer, I shifted back to my human form, which wasn't wise because of my wound, but Vino exited the van to help tie my side so I won't bleed out.

It was wise that Vino came out. He wasn't relevant in the matter, yet; he wasn't a lord, so for him to be a person of interest, the king and lords had to be dead. It was wise he came out just in case they had people watching from afar.

I looked ahead and knew the van carrying the Lunas was long gone. Separating us was a good idea, or else we would have had more to protect, and Avery's pregnancy wouldn't have made it easy.

I entered the van, and the shell-shocked Kappa driving it started the engine.

"Have you communicated with the other driver?" I asked him, catching my breath.

"Yes, Alpha. They are almost at the settlement," he said, and I was glad.

We headed to Mountain, hoping we would not get attacked again. One thing that baffled me was how they knew to wait for us where they did.

Did we have an informant in Mountain? This wasn't a good development. Seeing the look in the eyes of everyone, they were worried too. Most especially Sylvester.

"Next time, you should let us join you," he said, unhappy to have only watched the fight.

"If those people are who I think they are, it was best you didn't come out. You and the lords are their main targets; Andrew will tell you about it once we get to the settlement. All I can say is that we are dealing with two crazy bastards. One sicker and more entitled than the other," I said, preparing them for what they would learn from Andrew.

The rest of the drive was smooth, but we were all on alert and afraid that the attackers would pop out from nowhere.

We didn't relax until we got to the Mountain, but deep down, I knew being in Mountain wouldn't save us from the sick bastards if they dared to attack.

I needed to start considering protecting my people and evacuating them if required.
