Chapter 550: JOURNEY TO THE SILVER RIVER PACK

Koda received a letter from Alpha Cane, it was the reply he got when he wrote about his failure to secure the throne for his great grandson. He wanted Alpha Cane’s suggestion.

Because it was Cane’s suggestion for him to return to the capital city and immediately gather the forces to secure his great grandson’s position, but unfortunately, he was too late and the time was too short to gather all the forces that were needed, thus he had to suffer defeat.

After this, Koda didn’t know what to do. He was not a strategist, especially when the Red Claw pack was without an alpha now until the former alpha should step up again to fill the empty position, while still grieving the death of his son.

"What is it?" Alpha Colter asked. He looked so old as he was supposed to be retired by now, but he couldn’t do that when he was called back to lead the pack again.

The hatred that the Red Claw pack members had for the royal family ran so deep after they learned Lady Cyan had killed their alpha by using dark magic and now, her son was sitting on the throne against the real crown prince.

"Alpha Cane suggested for us to fetch the Serafim. We need to bring the Holy Kingdom to our side," Koda said after he read the letter and then handed it over to Alpha Colter so he could read it himself.

"Hm." Alpha Colter nodded after he read the details of the plan Alpha Cane had suggested for them. "This is a great plan. We need to move quickly and reach the Serafim first before the royals could get their hands on her, even though it will be hard for us to convince the Holy Kingdom to side with us."

"I don’t think so, the Serafim is here because she heard about the rumors of dark magic and if we let her know that the King, who was sitting on the throne right now has a dark witch for a mother, I don’t think it will be hard for us to convince her to be on our side."

Koda read the situation and the hidden meaning behind Cane’s suggestion better. Even though Cane didn’t write it down, they should be smart enough to think about how to convince the Serafim and the Holy Kingdom to side with them after all the information the Alpha had provided.

"Order someone to figure out where the Serafim and her entourage are staying." Alpha Colter had been away for too long from this struggle of power, thus he was a little bit slow with his response.

"Alpha Cane has provided us with the information in the previous letter. The Serafim and her knights are currently in the Winter Moon pack’s harbor."

If the only harbor in the southern kingdom was in the Chrystal Moon pack, then the second harbor was in the Winter Moon pack and the two of them were the only harbors in this continent.

"Good. Good." Alpha Colter nodded in satisfaction. "Alpha Cane has great informants and is quite resourceful. It’s great he is on our side. Too bad he couldn’t send his people to help with the war against the royal family. With seven packs under his control, he has a lot of warriors under his possession." Alpha Colter then looked at Koda. "You must hold onto this alpha and keep him by our side no matter what."

Not only were the southern packs under Cane’s control, but the Alpha himself was also an asset, as he was a great strategist, it would be their greatest loss if Cane changed his stand and supported the royals.

"Don’t worry, Alpha Colter, Alpha Cane and Alan are not on good terms. The one we need to worry about is Prince Kellan, who has fled to the Celestial Moon pack, because Alpha Cane’s father and Alpha Derick were Prince Kellan’s supporters in the past."

Alpha Colter thought about it. "You are right, we need to do something about it."

Koda felt great to work with Alpha Colter again, since he was his beta in the past. "Don’t worry, I have an idea about it."

============================

After half a day on their way to the Silver River pack, they stopped for a while for lunch before they could resume their journey again.

But, there was a little bit of commotion there.

"What happened?" Iris asked when she stepped out of the carriage and stretched her body.

"I don’t know, I will check," Aliana said, frowning. "I don’t think this is a monster attack..."

The commotion was a little bit different from the noise they would make if there was danger around them, it was most like a bunch of flustered growls.

Meanwhile, Cane was dozing off inside the carriage, feeling comfortable in his mate’s presence, he couldn’t fight his tiredness and Iris just stepped out to bring lunch for him when she heard the commotion.

However, Iris didn’t need to wait for Aliana to know what happened because from afar she could see the white fur ball rolling on the ground, while the beasts stared at it dumbfoundedly and growled to make it move away, but the silly bear simply spread its limbs and laid down on the ground, looking so tired.

It seemed, Lil Thing had been following them from the Howling Wolf pack and now, this lazy creature was spent, because it was not used to running too far for too long. For longer journeys, Lou would always put it inside a comfortable cage with a lot of food and enough water, thus for it to follow them, of course, this white bear had overworked itself to follow this entourage.

"Why is the bear here?" Iris approached Lil Thing and squatted down next to it, the lizard on her shoulder peeked through her curls and shook its tail, seemingly not happy with this creature that almost swallowed it months ago.

"I am not sure," Ethan said, he shifted back into his human form and approached Iris. "I just realized it when this creature approached us an hour ago."

"Is Lou around?" Iris looked around, thinking the merchant would pop out from behind the trees.

"No. I don’t think the merchant is nearby." Ethan squatted down next to Iris, frowning at the bear, whose tongue dangled from the side of its mouth. "I have sent a hawk to ask Jace about Lou’s whereabouts."

"Can someone get me water?" Iris asked. She was speechless to see Lil Thing follow them. Did the bear think they were going sightseeing and would return soon after?

Dyne gave Iris water, and she poured it into Lil Thing’s mouth and the bear let out a whimper.

"Can you get more? I think we need to feed it too, it looks like it’s going to die from exhaustion." Ethan’s frown deepened. "What should we do about this bear now?"

Their only options were to send someone to escort this bear back to the pack house or take it with them. The first option was more enticing.

But, before Iris could answer that, they were startled when they heard Cane’s voice from behind them.

"What is that creature doing here?!" Cane growled darkly.
