“So what’s going to happen now? I am tired of waiting for you I need him dead now“, he snapped.
“Don’t you ever make a move without my permission, again. Do that and everything. I need Laician alive. He is the key in everything.

“Incase you are not aware, the girl has transformed and she is missing. My spies has no clue on her whereabouts. I need Lucian to lure her out of ther hiding place. He is the only one who will make her venture out of her safe house. And you almost ruined it. I should kill you right now.” She said with fury.
He is silent. The pieces are falling into place, and be realises he acted in haste. He hangs his head in constrition.
“I am sorry. I didn’t think my actions would destroy all our plans this way. Forgive me. It won’t happen again”
She stares at him intently. Her yellow eyes is menacing and dangerous. He squirms in his seat.

“Meanwhile, I will wreck my havoc on Lucian and his park. I will isolate and weaken him till he is totally dependent on me. If I am right, they will bord soon, and she will sense his vulnerability. That should fish her out pretty soon.
The Blood Moon is coming and we have to be ready. I will have my desire and nothing will stop me this time.”
He nods his head in agreement.

She smiles cunningly. She stands to leave
“How did you manage to get away unseen from the mansion? I am sure the security has double since that attack, he queries.
She chuckles in a low tone. Her hand is on the door

What does she want with the girl? Her intentions are shrouded with utmost secrecy and she doesn’t trust him enough to let him in on her plans, All he knows is she wants the girl so desperately
Maybe he can use that desperation against her. If she tries to cross him, he will use that weakness against her. Maybe he should intensify his own efforts in finding this girl. She is the key to destroying Lucian and Lyanna.
Because after all is said and done, Lucian and Lyanna must die.
He doesn’t intend to share power with anyone, not even a strange ally

He looks at his watch. It’s almost 2am. Tume to go
hame.
His phone barres. He smiles at the message.
“There will be a meeting of the security Council tomorrow at noon. The venue will be communicated soon. Stay ready. Rowan.”
So, the wolf has been invited to feast with his prey, he smiles to himself.

“Till do anything for you, Lucian. Giving my life in exchange for yours is the least I can do. I’ve always loved you and always will.
Her profession of love makes me uncomfortable. This is the last thing I need on my plate right now.

“You need to rest. Lyanna. The poison took a lot from your already frail state. We need to run more tests to make sure you are in the clear.”
“Speaking of tests, could you deliver something for me to my doctor? I was supposed to deliver it days ago but I simply kept putting it off till this happened. It’s a red file in my dresser,” she said.
Every muscle in my body is tense. The BMP file? Why would she hand it over to me just like that?
I sowly and casually get the file from the drawer. She looks like she doesn’t have a carr in the world. Why isn’t she panicky?
“Hmmm, what’s the file for? And what’s BMP?” I ask with bated breath.
“Oh! It’s one of the tests required for my regular check up. BMP is Basic Metabolic Panel. It’s done mostly to check my body’s fluid balance and metabolism, and to know how well my kidneys are working. You know I can’t be too careful in my state. It’s just a whole lot of medical jargons.” She said weakly, sinking in further into the sheets.
I I feel so stupid. How could I have thought Lyanna would betray me? Was I looking for an excuse to accuse her so I could run after Olivia?
“Have a rest. I’ll check in on you later. I’ll deliver this to your doctor.”
She is already asleep before I leave the room. What an idiot I am! I was running after the wrong person while the actual culprit was still out there.
Shit! I need to get Rowan
As if on cue, my phone beeps and it’s Howan.
I’ve sent out the memo for the meeting with the Security Council. I am at the office right now. I have news of her.
I know her is Olivia. Suddenly I can’t wait to get to the office.
“Where the hell have you been these past two days? You keep disappearing without notice. Maybe I should give Beta to Lyanna who seems to have the knack of saving my life“, I bark at Rowan.
He looks at me with a dirty look. I know he wants to curse at me but his restraint wins as usual.
“Well sides stopping over at our favourite breakfast corner to have a much needed brunch, I have been out there following leads, trying to track,
