CHAPTER 4 Attack
Edward's POV
"How long are you going to keep messing around? Come back this instant!" My father's shouts were deafening as they rang out of my phone.
"Still as hot-tempered as ever Dad," I reply, my tone indifferent. I leant back in my chair and threw my feet onto my desk.
The day I became an adult, I moved straight out of the main territory of the Timberwolf Pack. I developed a Home for myself on another stretch of territory under my name. Just to get away from the madman my father was quickly becoming. I can see nothing has changed. He calls every few days to shout about something meaningless then gets even more annoyed when I don't shout back.
"I have a meeting, I'm hanging up." I easily ignored my father's angered roar and hung up the phone. Taking a minute to rub my temples and settle my mind, I finally looked up at Beta Blake. He had been obediently standing in front of me the entire time.
I raised my eyebrow at him and gestured at the chair in front of me. "Sit down and give your report."
"No, it's not propper," Blake stated in a serious tone. He reminds me of my father in that way. I couldn't help but roll my eyes and wave my hand to get him to report quickly.
I get this report every week. Since leaving the main territory, I created my territory. I turned a once desolate area into a thriving pack. I had taken strides to strengthen the economy and the personal strengths of all who lived under me. I never made the information about my pack public.
Due to how controlling my father was, I knew if he ever found out about my pack, he would want to use it to invade more territory for him. He loves forcing people into doing things like that.
My life is comfortable but boring. I occasionally find a woman to pass the time but, that caused issues with my reputation. After all, I am the Alpha of the Timberwolf Pack now. There will always be eyes on me.
But at this point who cares? I leant back to listen to the report that is nearly identical each week. Boredom overtakes me as I rest my head against my hand.
"An engagement ceremony is bing held in the Nightfall Pack today...."
"Wait, did you say Nightfall Pack?"
"Yes."
I tapped my chin in thought. After all, I still have some scores to settle with that pack. Hearing that Henry is getting engaged today has annoyed me. Why not crash his special day?
"We have let them rest for a long time recently." I stated while standing and straightening up my clothes.Beginning to feel excited about everything.
"We seized their resources just last week, Alpha."
I paused to straighten my tie. Looking at Blake I tried to get a read on him, I never could tell if he was serious or not. "One week is long enough. Let's go."
I skillfully led a few of my Pack members towards the Nightfall territory. We soon pulled up just in front of the small pack.
Nightfall's current territory is pitifully small, the old alpha, Henry Cooper's father was an effective leader. He put his focus on strengthening the pack rather than expanding. A smart man. But it still isn't good enough in my eyes.
I narrowed my eyes and began to tap the ring I wore on my left hand.
Mother, I promise I will make the packs that hurt you disappear. Starting with Nightfall, I always disliked them anyway.
As the car rolled to a complete stop, Blake opened my door. I stepped out of the car and took in the exquisitely decorated pack house. A smirk spread across my face.
Let's give the new couple a surprise.
"You guys are from the Swiftfoot Pack! You can't come in!"
It was enjoyable to see the fear in their eyes. It's good that they remembered me. If I had wiped out the Nightfall Pack all at once, it would have been much less fun.
I flashed them my usual smile and looked down at the guards who had already drawn their weapons. "Lets only take a few people back today."
Blake and his men rushed forward and subdued the guards. I planted my foot on the chest of the leader and smiled down at him. "Where is the ceremony?"
Fortunately, Nightfall's territory is small enough that we easily manoeuvred ourselves to the banquet hall. We had brought the guards along with us. I kicked the door open and took great pleasure in the terrified faces of the dressed up people.
The hall was uncomfortably quiet, except for the strange noises coming from the screen. I turned to see Henry having sex with a woman on the screen. The noises must have been her moaning.
I couldn't help but whistle at the scene. Evidently, I missed a very interesting party.
"Edward Anderson"
"Shouldn't you be calling me Alpha Edward?"
Henry gritted his teeth with pure anger. I was somewhat dissatisfied with his lack of respect. He used to be such a respectful boy I wonder what happened.
I looked over to Blake and had him bring the captured guards in front of Henry. Henry's face turned beat red as his Beta John walked over to prepare to fight us head-on.
I moved to crouch to prepare to transform and fight. I wouldn't usually fight in such a crowded place but needs must. From the corner of my eye, I spotted a red figure moving gracefully towards the entrance.
Who would be that bold?
I frowned as I looked over. It was a beautiful woman. In heavy makeup, long golden hair and beautiful green eyes that shone like glass. The mole at the side of her lip made her look even more charming.
I could hear my wolf whistling inside me. My heart beat violently along with the sound.
When did the Nightfall Pack gain such a beautiful woman?
