Found by the Lycan King by Natalie Winter

Chapter 86

I was sitting in my chair, staring absent-mindedly at the glass of water in front of me. We had been going in circles for hours and were yet to arrive at a conclusion.

The meeting hall was huge and I chose to not hold the meeting in my office as we needed to accommodate all the alphas along with some of the betas or gammas who came in as additional representatives from their packs.

The situation had definitely worsened over the last few weeks. The rogues had begun attacking innocent kids, targeting those who were yet to shift or had recently shifted.

This was a surprise move as mostly they went after the strongest members of the pack and tried to lure them to come over, members that felt they deserved the beta and alpha titles but were denied the position so a few of them had left their packs.

All around I could hear people bickering with each other, trying to prove their point. And the more I heard them, the more I felt my head hurt.

I flicked my gaze to the window, staring outside at the lush

greenery.

“King, what do you suggest?” Matteo tried to nudge me.

The crowd waited for me to answer but I did not speak for a while.

Seeing that, Matteo got up from his chair and came to whisper in my ear.

“King, they are all waiting for your response”

I blinked and turned my attention to the people seated around the large table that almost spanned through half the meeting hall.

“Teenagers are rebellious. I was too, at one point. It is easy to lure them into a trap rather than grown up men.”

Hearing my response, one of the alpha leaned forward, a look of concern on his face.

“But King, what are we supposed to do now? If they keep brainwashing our young blood like this, we will lose our future heirs and warriors.”

“What age group is being targeted by the rogues?” I asked.
