Alpha Damien's Breeder: The first night -
Chapter 198: Smitten by him
Chapter 198: Smitten by him
The guard stationed in front of the pack house welcomed both Dave and Damien in, not bothering to confirm their disguise.
They were led to the main sitting room, where Lucas’s mother was sitting, awaiting their presence. The smile on her face irked Damien so much that Dave noticed it.
"Oh please, we need our men in here first." Cautioning him, Dave warned and Damien was finally able to produce a smile.
Dave inwardly sighed in relief and faked a smile too, something that was so easy for him to do thanks to his former womanizing nature.
"Welcome to our abode, Alpha Nureo. Please have your seat," welcoming them, Lucas’s mother said and gestured for them to take their seats.
Once seated, Damien responded, "Pleasure is all mine, Vanessa. What of Alpha Lucas?" Inquiring, like he didn’t just leave him behind.
"Alpha Lucas is helping a neighboring Alpha win a war currently, as to when he would be back, I am sorry I lack knowledge of that," Vanessa responded and it was enough to inform Damien that Lucas lied to his mother about his whereabouts.
Since she was the perpetrator behind Aurora’s misery, it was only normal he hid it from her. Lucas wouldn’t be at his pack if Vanessa was aware, because she hates Aurora and wouldn’t want to have anything to do with her.
"Ohh, but the pack is barely guarded, is it safe to leave it unprotected?" Acting concerned, he probed.
Vanessa’s smile dropped, and she said, "I know, Alpha Nureo, but I can only pray for my son’s safe return. If by next week, we get no information, I would be forced to call him back home."
’Your son will be the one praying for you soon,’ inwardly, Damien thought.
"Ahh I see, that’s a good idea." He agreed with her.
"So to what do we owe this visit?" She inquired.
"We started a business not quite long and we have been able to earn over 100 billion dollars, but we don’t want to keep the business to ourselves alone and would like to share with a few trusted packs. We are here to ask if Apha Lucas would like to invest?" He started, narrating a fake story that unsurprisingly caught Vanessa’s attention.
From the intel he received about her, she was a greedy person and would do anything to gain power. There were rumors that she killed the former Alpha but the rumor died down as soon as it came.
It could be that she killed them or it was never true to begin with.
"Oh my, that’s a huge business. Of course, Alpha Lucas would be interested in investing." Gasping, she responded, her eyes dilating at the amount of money he mentioned.
"That’s good to hear," Damien said.
"If I may ask, what business could that be?" She inquired and Damien was amused. Greedy but smart, just as the rumors said about her.
"It is a cloth factory. I once lived in the human world when I was being trained to be an Alpha and I was able to secure buyers from the human world. I sell to other packs but I earn thrice of the money in the human world," he rattled on, not making a mistake in any of his sentences.
"That’s so impressive," amazed, Vanessa complimented, earning a smile from Damien.
"Unfortunately, I will need my son’s seal to finalize the investment, so we may have to get back to you," Vanessa said with a sorrowful expression. It seemed Lucas had anticipated his mother making decisions behind his back, so he took his seal with him to war.
Surprisingly, he wasn’t as foolish as she thought, just lacking in certain areas.
"No problem, we are ready whenever you are," Damien replied, and Vanessa’s face brightened.
"You can stay here for the night and leave in the morning," she offered, and Damien readily agreed.
"Titi, show them to their rooms," Vanessa instructed her handmaiden, who promptly led Damien and Dave away.
"We can share a room, thanks, love," Dave said with a wink, noticing how the maid was obviously smitten with him. She blushed, nodding before leaving.
"Charlotte would be thrilled to see that," Damien teased as they entered the room.
"You know I did that for you, so don’t you dare rat me out," Dave warned, glaring at Damien, who wasn’t the least bit intimidated.
"Only because of Aurora," Damien replied, giving his reason for keeping quiet.
Rolling his eyes, Dave muttered something under his breath and headed to the bathroom to freshen up.
After they had both cleaned up and were served food in the room, since they had refused to dine in the dining room, they began plotting their plan.
"They should arrive by midnight, but I need you to do something for me," Damien revealed, making a request.
"What is it?" Dave asked.
"I can’t completely trust the men with us. We would need the evidence Aurora mentioned. It’s like killing two birds with one stone, one plan has to work," Damien explained, earning a thoughtful nod from Dave.
That was indeed a solid backup plan in case anything went wrong.
"I knew you had something up your sleeve," Dave said, playfully smacking Damien’s shoulder and winking with a laugh.
"It’s never a bad idea to be cautious," Damien replied.
"Will you be alright here alone?" Dave asked, a bit concerned. He knew Damien could handle himself but felt it didn’t hurt to be careful.
"No one in this miserable pack can take me down right now. I will be fine on my own," Damien boasted confidently, and Dave forced himself not to roll his eyes.
"So once you take over the pack, how will you draw Lucas in? He won’t fall for your trick easily, especially without some added persuasion," Dave asked.
"There’s a watchman at the border. We will send him to Lucas with his mother’s finger."
"Oh my God, that’s brilliant!" Dave exclaimed at the gruesome but effective plan.
"I love you, brother," he said, spreading his arms for a hug and moving toward Damien, who quickly backed away.
"Don’t even think about touching me," Damien warned, his eyes darkening.
"You are such a bore, brother," Dave muttered, rolling his eyes before settling on the couch to sleep.
"Dream of me," he added, smirking.
