1151 Deserve My Axund Of Fimah

Luke

My father hand a solenn expression on his face, and I felt the pressure he exuded. It did not aftert me, but I knew Tia was barely fairing Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“You need to calm down, father,” I said and looked at where Tia sat on the couch, looking Uncomfortable and bothered My father took in a few breaths and tried to relax a bit. Noticing he was struggling with his temper. I quickly came up with a suggestion “Why don’t we head back home, and then we can discuss how to move forward there,” I said, and he looked at Tia

“I want Caleb, Kirk and Tia there We need all the wisdom we can get “My father said, and Tia looked at him, eyes wide and surprised she could not believe he finally invited her to participate in a military discussion I knew she was happy about it I could feel it

“It is time to finish this bastard” My father said through grilled teeth Truth be told, he had been the target all along the bastard had the effrontery to claim my father stole from him Meanwhile, he was the thiel, stealing people, money and lives We all had a pound of flesh to take from him

“We will meet you at home, father,” I said, and he nodded and walked away

I linked Kirk to meet us at the mansion for the meeting

“What about Mike,” he linked me back.

“Della Mike has a personal issue he is sorting out, and I have granted him indefinite leave,” I Said to Kirk, and he was quiet

“Shall we?” I asked Tia, who was still beaming with joy. I took her hand to help her get up, not like she needed my help, but it was my way of caring for her. Tia was still beaming with joy

“It is just a meeting, Tja, 1 suill won’t let you fight if it comes down to it,” I said so she would know where I stood. Her smile dropped a bit, and I decided to remind her what happened the last time she shifted to fight

“Unless you want to go through what you went through last time,” I said, and she shook her head quickly. I learned it was a painful experience, and I was mad at her for putting her body through that kind of stress. Shilung while pregnant, especially when a woman starts showing, is prohibited. My wife had to damn the consequences and go ahead. I could not blame her either, my father needed the help.

“I need you to promise you won’t get in a fight no matter what, Tia I need you to promise me. “I said, and she reluctantly nodded. She did not speak the words.

“If your life is in danger, Luke, I will damn the consequences,” she said honestly, I knew it would be unfair to force her to make such a promise when I knew is the roles were reversed, I would do the same. I just have to hope the need will not arise.

“Where are we going?” She asked me, and I sighed. I wanted to take her out, but my father had disrupted my plans with his meeting. “Home. We do not want to keep Alpha Aesop waiting,” I said, trying to mimic my father’s

countenance, and Tia giggled sweetly. It warmed my heart. She always looks more beautiful when she smiles. I hoped I could keep a smile on her face every day for the rest of our lives.

We arrived at the mansion with Kirk in tow. Entering the mansion, I learned that Caleb was already around. My father and Caleb were waiting for us in the office. I grumbled a bit because I wanted to take a shower and maybe make love to my wife before the meeting. But now we had to just get straight to it. I walked into the office, and Caleb was sitting on the couch minding his business while my father was

pacing about the place. He had somehow calmed down. I did not bother to ask him how he managed to dissipate the rage so quickly. “Are we all here?” he asked me and motioned me to sit at the desk. It was a way of stating that I was still in charge. “Kirk is behind us,” I said, and he sighed. Very well then.” he said, and just then, Kirk walked in. He looked excited. I have never seen anyone who loved his job as much as Kirk did.

Tia sat on the couch beside Caleb, and Kirk joined them. They looked like they did when they were at the academy hanging around.

Once everyone was settled, my father cleared his throat to speak, and Stacy walked into my office.

We were all surprised at her. Her eyes were puffy, which showed she had been crying. I did not need to guess why. Monica was locked away.

“You can’t have a meeting about dealing with Regan without me,” She said with determination in her eyes.

“Go to bed, Stacy,” My father said to her with a dismissive tone and then she shook her head and did something unexpected. She took off her blouse and showed us her back. It was covered with silver scars. I looked away immediately, and Tia gasped.

“You do not know what life has been like with that man. I never said a word because I believed he was my problem. I thought I was the only one he was troubling. I did not know he was Luis Moon, the one who killed your wife, or was trying to kill Tia and Luke. I did not know he was the one troubling this family. I thought they were two different people. But now that I know the truth, I want to help.” She said and wiped away her tears.

“I am not just a tool, Aesop. My value does not begin and end in the bedroom. All my life, I was told that sex was all I was good for; my mother told me that, Regan told me that, and you

told me that. But I know I am more than a hole to give release to a person, a woman, and I have my values. I might not be a trained fighter like Tia or an academic, but I have the zeal to live and survive. That bastard took everything from me. My dignity, my life, my daughter, my peace, my joy and my husband. He took it all without cause and without remorse. I want to pay him back in his coin. I want to strip him bare as he did to my family and me. I want to ridicule him and take everything from him. I want to watch him suffer,” she said, wearing her blouse. Adjusting herself, she looked at my father. 1 “I do not care if it is that last thing I do. I really don’t have anything to live for anymore. My parents are close to the grave, and my daughter might never see the light of day again. My son does not need me, and my husband has left me. The least I can do is take Regan down for everything he made me do and lose.” she said, and I felt a sharp pain in my heart.

I could not believe my father was verbally abusive to her. No wonder she was always bitter and lashed out at everyone. It was her outlet. She dared not lash out at him, so she picked on me,

the staff and sometimes Caleb. It was her way of dealing with her situation. I looked at my father, and he was ashamed of himself.

“How can you tell the woman you claim to love that sex is all she is good for?” I linked my father, and he could not meet my eyes. He was sorry. He might have said those words out of anger, but he was still wrong. It cut deep and messed her mind up. It destroyed her self esteem. He was wrong.

My father stood up and walked to where Stacy stood. She looked terrified, and I noticed she was shaking She has always been afraid of my father, but I know that he will never lay a finger on her, but sometimes words hurt more than the physically inflicted pains.

He pulled her close and hugged her tightly. She was still shaking while he held her with her head against his chest.

“I am sorry, Stacy. I never meant it that way. I was angry. I did not know it would cut that deep, “He said to her, and she wrapped her arms around him and sobbed gently.

“I am sorry I lied to you. I was scared,” she confessed, which we all already knew by now. The only reason Stacy did not tell a soul was out of fear. Regan had that effect. I wondered why Lisa would think he would love her. She was just as delusional as he was.

My father led Stacy to where he was sitting and made her sit beside him. Seeing them was beautiful, and I caught Tia wiping away tears from her face. It was about time they reconciled. So far, my mother and Stacy were victims of Regan, Stacy was only lucky she survived.

I cleared my throat to snap people back. My father and Stacy will deal with their issues when they are alone.

“How do we get this bastard?” I said aloud because I was out of ideas, and Regan had refused to come out of the shadows.

“We thought Tetra would force a form of response from him, but he is still somehow hiding in the shadows. We learned he went to intercept a vessel with ammunitions meant for Santa Braee. How long would we keep playing hide and seek with this bastard?

Stacy raised her hand as if she were in a classroom, and I almost laughed. It was clear my father never allowed her to get involved with pack affairs. I nodded at her, and she smiled at

1.

“Thank you, Alpha Luke. ” she started and cleared her throat.

“Regan is a coward. I do not know about now, but he avoids confrontations. He likes to lurk in the shadows, deceiving and manipulating people to do his bidding but he never gets involved directly.” She

said, and I paid attention.

“He is also a very arrogant man. He will surface if you have a way of calling his bluff publicly He always does, but he might surface with a lot of might, so you also have to be ready to withstand his might before publicly calling his bluff.” she said, and I really appreciated her insight. She knew Regan more than us, and if what she was saying was true, we would need to prepare our military before considering how to humiliate or dare him publicly

“How is the state of the Military Kirk?” I asked, and he leaned forward to speak I could tell he was yet to shake off the shock of seeing Stacy topless. The woman was still a beauty

“Nol good, Alpha We have a lot of people taking the neutral stance right now. Neither are for or against But we still have the loyalty of Neev and Bravadome. You own Woodclaw city and

Eastwood. I guess after Tetra, they realised it will not be an easy win for Luis or Regan,” he said, sounding confused about what to call him.

“His real name is Tom Regan Adhit,” Stacy said, and Kirk nodded.

“We will still refer to him as Luis Moon to outsiders. We do not want him to know his game is up.” Tia chipped in, and Caleb giggled.

“Let us leave him thinking his identity is hidden. I can’t wait to see the look on the face of the bastard when he finds out that we know everything.” Caleb said and still giggled.

“Kirk, I will need you to prepare the military with arms and station them ready for defence. Divide the force into three. I will lead one, my father will lead the other, and Caleb will lead the last one.” I instructed, and he nodded

“That is good, but I am tired of the bloodshed. The truth is the bastard will keep covering himself with others. We must challenge him in a one-on-one fight wolf style with everything to lose on both sides. We

need to condemn wasting innocent lives and challenge him in one-on -one combat. If we win, we take it all; if he wins, he takes it all. It will be a fifty-fifty-stake fight. Let us end him once and for all,” Caleb suggested, and it was the best yet the riskiest idea. If Regan agrees, what are the odds that he will actually fight fair?
