Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty

For the next few days, Nick guided me on how to control my wings, and soon using them felt like second nature to me, they felt like an extension of myself.

Now we had to plot on how to stop Thane, and it was easier said than done.

“You can’t possibly think I can return back to the Nightshade pack,” I argued.

We were seated in a small meeting room. Nick and Gabriel were present. Gabriel was regarded as the commander and next in command after Nick.

“Hear me out, okay?” Gabriel pleaded. “You alone know the ins and outs of the Nightshade pack more than any other person, and with those wings, getting in wouldn’t be as hard.”

Gabriel knew about my wings. He had discovered them one of the days I trained with Nick. Turns out he also had an idea that Nick wasn’t just a werewolf. That day, Gabriel had walked away like he saw nothing and never brought it up until now.

Nick didn’t seem to like the idea of me returning back to the Nightshade Pack one bit. “Is there not any other way?” he questioned.

“There is; we send in the soldiers alone, and they meet their deaths,” Gabriel suggested.

We both knew he was right, and yet… yet I didn’t like this idea at all.

“I had been banished from the pack,” I reminded him.

Gabriel fell silent for some time as if in lost thoughts. “Then we should reschedule, if you attack by night fall it would be a better cover”

“Maybe I should go too,” Nick cut in.

“No,” Gabriel says immediately. “You cannot leave the pack; things could go wrong and if you are sighted that would be seen as an act of war, they would come for this pack.”

“But we are sending her despite that, right? I do not fear war, and you know that.”
