Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 45 

Dexter POV 

We relaxed and recovered over the next few days in brush that seemed to hide us very well from the world around us. I used the remainder of the herbal stuff Miranda gave me to mask our scent in this area. As long as it does not rain, the herbal blend should be fine and we can use it when we put up our next camp. 

My warriors recovered quickly and we celebrated our victory over that weak wolf pack. We purged salvageable food to last us a few days out here on the run. Spirits were high as I walked through the warriors campsite. I heard laughing, joking, and retelling of the stories from their victory. We only lost maybe ten wolves and two lycans from the entire thing. That was a good outcome. 

The next pack was almost triple the size of the first pack and we would need those numbers to overthrow the Lycan pack afterwards. The leader of the elite pack was a cousin to Everest and it is highly unlikely he would go quietly and fall in line. Afterall most lycans are loyal to their families, most. 

I was not like most, I operated completely differently than those around me. I was different than my family, I even looked differently from the rest of them. I had a suspicious feeling in my teen years that I didn’t belong. I looked like my mother but I had zero features of my father. My brother had both, though he looked more of my father than my mother. I was lost in my own thoughts and didn’t hear one of my leaders approach and ask me a question. I was too busy thinking of my fathers last words before I ended his life “You are no son of mine.’ 

“King Dexter? Can you hear me? You okay sir?” He had a concerned look on his face and honestly I had no clue how long he was trying to get my attention. 

“Hey Trist. Sorry I was just thinking. I apologize. What can I help you with?” 

“We were wondering when we would be heading out? When will we need to be ready?” He asked. 

I clapped him on his back, motioning to walk as we started to walk together. “Three days is when I would like us to leave this place. Everyone should be well rested, healed, and ready to move by then. Next two days we will spend discussing our best routes to the next pack. Will you make sure that every leader still has their copy of the map?” I told him and he nodded. 

“Yes sir.” He bowed his head and left, walking back in the direction we came from. I walked back in the direction of my tent and I felt exhausted. I laid down and closed my eyes with a sigh. I never fell asleep, just resting as I laid there relaxing while I listened to my men for a few hours. When nightfall came and the delicious smell of food drifted to my tent and I decided to emerg. I pat the backs of my men as I wapked through, greeting them, and encouraged them in previous battle. I picked a plate up, tossed food on it, sat down and ate 

with them. 

When we finished eating, my leaders and myself gathered together with maps in ha We looked over and discussed different strategies to the next pack and where the best location for our camp would be sitting. I sat there while I listened to some of them argui over what would be easiest or what would be best. When we finally came up with a plan that we could all agree was best option, we closed up shop several hours later. 

We decided to stay close to the coast as long as we could. Having the sea to out bacl would offer a little safety. We would follow the rivers edge through the thick cover and make our way inland. We would approach from their weakest point and attack. There shouldn’t be too many running the territory there. We had to be close because these next two packs were close to Everests pack and we had a fair shot of running into his men. 

Day of second pack invasion 

We approached the territory line quietly, we took our time making our way in. We watched and listened for any movement but was met with none. It was odd not seeing atleast one territory boarder patrol in the time that we were there. Something was definite off and not right. We crossed the line and made our way to the main village. 

As we approached the stone wall, all was still quiet and unmoving. Had they found ou about us and ran? Heading towards the direction of the Kingdom possibly? I linked a group of trackers to take off around the wall to go a mile or so outside their protection wall, towards the Kingdom to see if they picked up any scents. Being Lycans, they’re much faster and can head them off. 

We hopped the wall and made our way through the apparent abandoned streets. Theri seemed to be no one here, not a soul was left behind. We made our way to the packhouse and I broke the door in watching it shatter into splinters and fall to the floor. I stood and listened and the silence was deafening. I looked to my left and took my anger out on the entry table. My Lycans rage showing through my humans actions. 

My warriors jumped and I stormed off with a deadly growl, my teeth clenching while my fists were balled at my side. I searched every room, looking around. No one was here. “S**t!”I yelled. I could hear my warriors downstairs searching. Twalked to the staircase and looked down and gave the order “If you find anyone bring them to me immediately! Search the entire pack! Search their homes, stores, parks, the schools, just all of it. Leave nothing uncovered! Move out!” I watched them scatter beneath me. 

I stomped off into the Alphas office and looked around, trashing it as I searched for any information I could find. It appeared to be cleared out as I searched the desk and filing cabinets. I walked down the hall to the Lunas, then to the Betas and slammed the door behind me. I slammed it so hard it broke and fell off the hinges. The offices were completely clean with nothing left behind. Which left me in a furious rage.
