Nova POV:

Hearing that my heart drops. “800 more rogues…?” I whisper. “How?!”

“My warriors have a theory” Alex says his voice low. “They seem to be under a different type of control, they said they move efficiently and are clearly under the same leader. They think these are rogues which have been under Charles leadership or that of his witch acquaintance for a long time, that’s how they’ve been undetected.”

“I was going to say, surely my father would know about that many rogues gathering from his scouts” I say quietly as I drop into a chair.

“Exactly” Alex says looking at me, “I called him immediately and he’s stressed. He had no idea and says they can’t be wanderers. These have been in hiding waiting for their time to be used.”

“Like breeding them?” Laurence gapes as Jax stays still deep in thought.

“I think so” Alex says as he sits down beside me. “1300 rogues” he sighs.

“That’s a hell of a lot” I say.

“We have the rest of the pack” Jax says quietly.

“Yes but we don’t want them all to fight if we can avoid it do we” I say. “I should have commanded that f*****g rogue.”

“No we

don’t” he sighs. “f*****g hell it makes sense why they chose to come here with those numbers. That rogue might not even have been aware Nova don’t beat yourself up about it.”

“What the f**k are we going to do?” Laurence asks worriedly.

“Speak to Esmerelda to begin, it’s just an idea but perhaps if we can kill the witch. using dark magic then it may release some control over the rogues if they are influenced by him. I suspect they won’t be trained as well as us and will be there for numbers only, surely we would be aware of rogue numbers that size training at some point” I begin saving. “On average I’d say our skilled warriors could easily take on any
