I did not waste any time asking Erik why the people had come to see me.

‘Did they tell you why they are here?" I linked him back.

'Based on what we discussed. They have ordered their families to move and occupy the West. They are here to pay their respects and swear their allegiance," He linked back, and I did not know what to make of the sudden visit.

Somehow I was uncomfortable about it, but I had agreed to let them join us during the battle. My fear was that there was no guarantee that they were not working for Yuri.

'Can they be trusted, Erik?" I asked him, and there was silence.

‘Like you said, I could not make out Ighor's allegiance to Yuri. At this point, I would not vouch for anyone, but I know that they reject Yuri's methods and ideology. If that is good enough to convince you, then I would tell you Yes, but if not, that is the best I got," He replied honestly, and I sighed.

'Tell Alexei and Clay about it. I will convey this to the people on my side and get back to you on the matter," I told Erik and closed the connection.

Leo's idea that everyone should be connected to me was productive because it made communication easier and saved us time.

I linked Marcel, Theodore, David, Vino, Devin, Leo, Alexei, Clay and Andrew to join me in my office while I headed there, walking briskly. Although Erik was going to tell Alexei and Clay, I needed multiple opinions to decide on what to do.

I might be the king, but they all had stakes in the matter.

Everyone had something dear to lose. No one’s loss was more significant than the other giving us equal stakes in the matter. A unanimous agreement was required for us to proceed.

They arrived at my office individually. Twenty minutes after I had linked them.

David was the first to arrive, followed by a very tired Dominic, then Marcel. Vino came in thirty minutes, followed by Leo and then Theodore. Alexei, Clay and Andrew were the last to arrive. Seeing the Stepanovs, I knew they figured out the reason for the meeting, but the rest didn't.

"Some Family heads of members of the Stepanov clan are here to see me. I do not know if I should give them an audience, and if I should, I do not know where will be safest," I said, and everyone was silent.

I looked at Marcel and Theodore, who seemed to be processing my words; they all were, and I remained on my chair, patiently awaiting their response.

‘I would lie if I said I'm not worried. What if it is a trap by Yuri to lure you out?" Marcel said, voicing his fears, and the rest shared this opinion.

"They can't work with Yuri. They loathe him," Andrew said, and I did not know if his opinion would be enough.

"That was how Erik said Ighor was a neutral party, only to find out that he single handed came to shoot at us just to help Yuri's cause," Devin said, sounding slightly annoyed. He had a point, but Andrew disagreed.
