Chapter 81

Chapter 81 THEON

Shortly after dropping Ryn off, I felt some bursts of emotion. First it was fear, then pain, then anger and I was on the verge of calling her when I felt her calm down.

Now what the hell could Ryn possibly be going through at the moment? Was Dutton back at the school?

I checked my email for reports on the one eyed snake but nothing so far. Last I heard, he was still in the clinic receiving treatment for his cracked skull. I guess I hit him too hard. My bad.

I arrived at the other Elite building, which was a whole empire on its own. It was built like a barrack filled with Elite warriors dressed in black, most doing their morning jogging routine or in trucks riding somewhere. When they saw me, they stopped to bow or salute before go From the entrance, I met the captain I had been liaising with on the phoenix flower. He was a slim man in his early forties, with a Hitler mustache. He paid salute before stepping into stride with me.

"So brief me." I said as secretaries brought paper work for me to sign on the go.

"Well, there's someone I think you should meet first." He said, and I glanced at him, trying to read his face for clues but found none.

When I got to my office waiting area, I found a young man seated on the sofa. The moment he saw me, he sprang to his feet and bowed. "Your Highness."

I studied him for a moment, pretty sure I had seen him somewhere and when I looked into his eyes, I remembered who he was and instantly became amused but apprehensive.

"Nicholas, isn't it?" I asked, staring at late Alpha Eric's son.

"Yes, my Prince." The young man answered confidently but his shifty gaze and sweaty forehead betrayed his nerves.

We entered my office and after settling down, I asked, "So what can I do for you?"

Nicholas sat up in his seat, leaning forward on my table. "I want to help you catch Viktor Solokov." He said.

I leaned back in my chair, assessing him. "Why?"

"That man ruined my life. He killed my father and used up the gold reserve of my pack for his hideouts. Now he's demanding that I provide a secure transport to the North plus cash and other things. Failure to provide today and he's threatening to bring his men to attack us. I glanced at my captain and leaned forward on the table, clasping my hands. "How do I know you're telling the truth?"
