Chapter 42

Recently, the guards at the borders had been continuously reporting about the frequent attacks by the rogues.

The frequency of the attacks had escalated by so many fold than usual, it gave rise to a constant headache at the back of the King’s mind.

Rogues were shifters that either left their packs on their own to lead an independent life, or shifters who had lost everyone related to them. Only in rare cases, it would be shifters who were banished from packs or abandoned by their close ones.

And, they would be hard to control as they wouldn’t have an alpha that could keep them in check. They would do as they please and mostly wander alone.

It was rare for them to form groups and attack a well protected place like the capital city of this kingdom, which would be literally swarmed by the royal warriors, even though it was surrounded by a dense forest.

So, here was Micah, discussing the anomaly of this situation with Alan first thing this morning.

“It didn’t seem to be that simple,” Alan said, looking thoughtful. “There is something fishy about this whole situation.”

“Even though they seem to be like a bunch of random attacks, I’m sure they were following at certain pattern,” Micah said, as he pointed out the places the rogues tried to breach in the past few days.

These places seemed to have something in common that they were currently unable to connect with the attacks.

“But we still have to figure that out,” Alan felt a little frustrated.

At first glance, these attacks did seem random, but the frequency at which they were happening was too strange to be dismissed as simple attacks for food or necessities.

They were missing something really important and that might be proven to be fatal if they didn’t solve this as soon as possible and the attacks were really preplanned.

“If we waste our time trying to figure out why they were attacking us, we may lose more than we could afford,” Alan said, determination glinting in his eyes.

“What do you suggest, Alan?” Micah asked Alan, even though he looked like he knew the answer to his own question.

“Let’s increase security around the borders and fight them,” Alan replied, certainty evident in hist voice. “Let’s not give them a chance to catch us off guard next time.”

“Be on it,” Micah permitted him, as he picked up the next report to look at.

Alan nodded to Micah as he picked up his things to leave for the training ground. “I’ll dispatch a few groups of warriors first. After observing the situation a little, we can come up with our next
