The Lost Princess Of The Lycans Chapter 111: The Boundaries
King Rays POV
After leaving Sarah and the pups, I went to the office. I cleared my desk of all the paperwork and got a map of the clans and their territories. I needed a map of the witches and their boundaries. We all live in harmony with humans. We all have borders, and we enforce them.
Again, there are mates of humans and other species, which happens more than you think. We can also turn our mates if we choose to, but only if they are human. I was going over the maps when there was a knock at the door.
" Enter," I shouted.
It was Caleb. I hadn't realized that he was back from the White River Clan.
" Hey, old buddy," I stated.
It was nice to see him.
" What can I do for you? If you needed something, you could have called," I stated.
" Hey, yourself, old friend. I heard that there is going to be a war, and I wanted to speak to you in person," he said.
" Yes, there is going to be a war," I responded to him.
The word does travel fast. That reminded me that I needed to do double patrols and guard around the borders. I mind-linked Brittany to come to the office. About five minutes later, there was a knock on the door. I could tell it was Brittany. She was there in less than five minutes.
" Yes, your majesty," she responded.
" I need you to tell your commanders to double the patrols," I stated.
" Yes, your majesty," she responded.
She then left, and I turned my attention to Caleb.
" What did you need?" I asked him.
" I want to fight in the war," he responded.
" How are the repairs and training your warriors?" I asked.
" The repairs are going great, and the warriors are training just fine," he responded.
He did not pick up on the hint. Today was going to be a long day. Tomorrow, we are having a presentation of the pups. There will be an announcement and then the name of the alpha of the White River clan. Things would be rushed, which I wouldn't say I liked to do, but I needed to get things in place and get Sarah trained.
" Old friend, tomorrow morning, we will present the pups to the kingdom and name the alpha of the White River Clan," I stated.
"OK, I will be there," he responded.
He then left the office. He had no idea what was going to happen. I was going to name him the alpha of the White River Clan. I continued to study the map. I knew where our weak spots were, as well as our well-patrolled areas. There was a lot to do in a short amount of time.
I then looked at the clans' borders. They were not patrolled as well as ours, and I would have to remedy this. I was examining the map when there was a knock at the door. It was Sarah. I could smell her. No matter what body wash she used, she would always smell like pine trees and vanilla. She also smelled like me.
" Come in, beautiful," I shouted.
" How did you know it was me?" she asked.
" Because of your scent," I responded to her.
"OK, I came to see if I could help you," she stated.
" No, babe, you can't. But your presence is a welcome distraction. Come here and kiss me." I stated.
She gave me a kiss and then left to tend to the pups. This afternoon, Brittany is going to start her training. I know she won't be fully trained by the time the war begins, but at least she can help in the back row, where most new warriors will be for their safety. I know she will hate that, but that is where I want her.
Also, she will be protected, and if they need to get her and the pups to safety, then she will be unnoticed when she slips away. Given her power, she might be more beneficial than that. I still need to talk to Donald. That was the next person I was going to find. I needed to see if he would fight on our or our people's side. He had no idea what was going to happen.
Witches were not like Lycans. Their king could yell at them, but that was it. Lycans would roar and stop every Lycan within a few miles or more of them, so that was not an advantage. I would prefer not to fight and shed blood, but if necessary, that was what it would take. I picked up my cell phone and was about to make a call when I heard a bunch of yelling in the house.
Now, I wondered what the hell was going on. I went into the kitchen area since it was close to my office. Some of my warriors had Donald in chains, and he was the one yelling.
" What is the meaning of this," he shouted.
" I have done nothing wrong," he shouted.
" You were sent here to spy and hurt our king." one young warrior stated.
It's just great that they were trying to throw their weight around, and I knew these guys were fresh out of training. I just sat back and watched. I would step in if things got bad, but I wanted to see what Donald was going to do about the situation. I knew he could handle himself against these "pups."
He looked over and saw me standing there. He gave me a look, asking for permission to teach these guys a lesson, and I nodded. He then flipped backwards and out of their grasp. They tried to swing at him, and they missed horribly. Some more punches and kicks were thrown, but in the end, the warriors were down. I knew that was going to happen. I was delighted that Donald did not use any magic.
The fighting had caused Sarah to leave the nursery. She saw me standing there, and she immediately knew that everything was OK. She knew what to do, which was to go back into the nursery and lock the door just in case it was a serious matter. But this situation was not. I honestly wanted to see what these young men knew.
They started to transform into lycans. I stepped in then and called them off.
" That is it," I shouted at the warriors.
They immediately stopped shifting. They were all naked, standing in the kitchen. I gave them a look and said get out of here, and they left.
" That was quite a show," I stated.
" It was, wasn't it," Donald responded.
" You are the man I was about to go find," I responded.
" I was headed to talk to you when those" pups" apprehended me," he stated.
I'm glad they were doing their job, but they need to be well-informed before they try to rip someone to shreds.
"Let's go into the office and talk," I responded to him.
We went into the office and shut the door.
" Tell me what you know about this war," I stated.
