Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 41 “No.” the King shakes his head. Typical. “She’s thirty-two now. Mated and has twin boys. She’s the prototype of what an alpha should be. The Lockwoods would be the Kings of the wolf race if we didn’t have good leadership. When she was eleven, Eloise was s***d right off her porch in Lockwood City. Tecnition Lockwood had a lot of enemies and one of them was his own brother. Alpha Tec looked for his baby for three years until he found her locked in a cell where they had tortured and raped her. “When she turned she was already feral. She was a danger to herself and everyone around her. Still, he couldn’t put her down so he locked her away in their tower where she stayed for the next fifteen years of her life. She created one of-no. She created the best security system in the world and gifted it to her pack before she stepped out of the tower again. She cleaned the streets of the corruption her uncle had brought to their city “I had gone to Lockwood City with my mom when I was a little girl and she carried me on her back the entire time because she was afraid that I was going to be stolen. If you go there now, kids are running around without a care in the world because she dropped their crime rates to almost nothing. They have juveniles walking around in their bare skin. They have some of the best training programs and schools. She did that,” “That’s what you and Darren wanted,” he nods.. “Yeah.” I say when a kid brings our food. He’s very young. Thirteen maybe. “Beta Phurry.” I flinch when he calls me that. “Is it okay if I get an autograph?” he pulls out a picture of me and Darren from. his apron. “You don’t-” “Yeah, Kid,” I say reaching for my purse to get à marker. His face lights up. “What’s your name?” “Darren,” he answers. I laugh. Of course, it is. “It’s very nice to meet you, Darren,” I sign the picture and dedicate it to him before sliding it back. He takes it, holds it to his chest, and bows formally before running back toward the kitchen. I watch him show the picture to his dad who laughs and plays with his hair. When he looks up at me he mouths a thank you.

“I wasn’t always like this, Lycan King. But I’ve had enough. It’s finally caught up and I’m done. So you can call me whatever the f**k you want. A traitor, a terrorist, a f***g pet. None of it matters. It’ll all be someone else problem soon enough. One thing you shouldn’t question is my loyalty to you. “You’re going to be the person to give me what I want and that’s all that matters to me anymore. So if I have to kill, cheat, and betray my way through everyone I care about so you can give me what I want, I will. And I can tell you now that they’d do the same to get what they want. They already have. I’m probably the last person you will ever fully trust this way. Because this is the world you live in. And if you let it, it’ll destroy you too I take a bite out of my bacon cheeseburger deluxe and smile at how delicious it is. “What do you have going on with the Alpha King?” he asks when we’re back on the road again. We got extra food. The Alpha King likes the work Elosie did. Nate is related to her mate’s brother. He runs the underground s** in LC. That’s why the crime rates are so low. He’s the son of the alpha who had her locked up.” Her maler “Her mate’s half-brother. He was locked in the cell next to her for a while before she was located,” “Complicated,” he whispers. 1/B 52 18:17 Thu, Oct 17 BG. Chapter 41 “Anyway, when the Alpha Kipg evaluated her work he asked her to help him clean up some of the other cities. Red Wood Gorgon. Midnight Moon. And High Rise. No one can know he’s involved because if the Wolf High Council finds out. They’re going to try and assassinate him and the Royal family. He’s been a King for a whole year now. Not even mated yet. Nate was Eloise’s contact here, but then Darren died and he thought-” You were going to swear your allegiance to him to save the city,” he concludes. “Yeah, but things change. Nate doesn’t understand. He’s never had anyone but us,”

“You might not get what you want out of him if he takes over the pack,” he says. The Alpha King will send someone else. His father put all of this in motion and the kid is running with it. He’s smart. Driven and dedicated. Just like you. Just a lot more hopeful. I told them that. So, the rest is up to you to even out with them. when the time comes,” “It feels like it all might fall apart when I kill you,” “It won’t. I’m expendable. There are dozens of others like me with a whole lot to live for. I told you. I’m nothing special. Now my tum. “Ask,” he sighs. “What is my collar made of?” “Perry, you better not try to take it off, he growls. Don’t f****in our day already. Please,” “I don’t want to take it off, I roll my eyes. “I mean I do, but it’s already there and you’re right. The marks are ugly.” “I can’t tell you.” “It’s the thing the Wraith King made before he was assassinated, isn’t it?” “***k, Perry,” he sighs. “I don’t care that your people did that. F***k the Wraiths. I just need you to get me some so I can build you something.” “What?” he asks. I reach into my bag to hold up the fried chip from the first time I tried to build this thing “This right here was meant to be the soul of the company. This was the baby Darren and I tried to create to surpass every other system in existence, but when I uploaded the program into it and put it in another computer it got so hot it burned through the second floor of our house when we first bought it. It burned down to the basement where it sat until it cooled off. It took 12 days,” “What would I do with that?” “You? Probably nothing. You’re not into computers. But I know a little uwu girl with a ba*** goth sister in your kingdom who would love to have access to the world’s greatest hacking system in all existence. Ima call it the L squared,

“The L squared? “Yeah, Local L***ic, I laugh. “That’s my favorite title and it’s perfect for this. That way D and I get to f**k the world up even from beyond the grave. And I know you like being in charge so with this. Lycan Tech would be yours. Not even the old man can take you. You can’t release it until I’m gone so they don’t suspect you killing me for this program. That’s when you’ll have a problem, Is that how valuable it is? That is how valuable it is,” 2/3 18:17 Thu, Oct 17 BB. I Chapter 41 52% “Why would you give that to me? To my people,” he asks. “Compared to the rest of the world, you guys make up six percent of the population. This thing is going to be your hole-in- one. The thing that puts you back on the map. No one knows anything about Lycans because all you’re known for is killing and being monsters. Surely, that’s not the kind of king you want to be, right?” “No, I don’t,” he chiens his grip o the wheel. “Am I overstepping my boundaries?” I ask him because he seems genuinely upset. “You can say no. You can tell me to stop.” “No, I just wish things were different,” he says after a while. “I’m pawning off my responsibilities to you. It’s hardly worth the sentiment,” I scoff. “That’s not what I mean. I just wish there was something I can do for you. Something proper,” “And you will,” “You could have left all of this to Nate, the way he says his name is hilarious. “Nate has his own shit to take care of and if I would have died without naming a successor. It would have gone to the old man. Once we get you to the council, we make you official. Legally everythingContent © NôvelDrama.Org.

that is mine will be yours. So, you are doing something proper. Whatever that means. I’m looking for a way out and you’re looking for a way in. It’s a win-win situation,” “Perry, 1-” 色
