On the fifth day his troupe of warriors left for the war, Dylan getting impatience as there is still no news from his people about his mate. He keep on pondering on himself whether his plan work or not. His wolf, Max, keep blaming Dylan saying that his plan was going to f*ck up and make their mate run away instead of making her come closer to them. And that statement did not sit well for Dylan. He is about to make a decision to left the room to look for his mate when sudden his office door open with a loud bang.
"Dylan." Bark his dad, walking through the door in a rash. He only stop his stride when he reach the table that full with files and documents on it. And he give a hard glare at Dylan before continue.
"What the hell with the conditions you put up to stop all the attack at the war next country? Why did I never know about it? Who is that girl in the picture on the flyers and the news?" shout his dad loudly in his alpha voice commanding an explanation from Dylan. He was so furious when he heard about the news. But, since Dylan is an alpha himself, the commanding voice did not give any effect to him to submit himself to his father.
"Dad. Calm down. I-I'm sorry that I didn't tell you about it. I plan to explain to you after she is here so that no one will dare to oppose her. I want to introduce her when she is under my watch. I don't want to attract too much spotlight and make let the enemies charge towards her. They will take the chance to make her their captive as she is my Achilles heel. She is only a human. She will need all of my protection and attention."
"What? Does it means she is your mate? Are you hundred percent sure she is your mate?" asked the former alpha king for another verification from his son.
"Yes. I'm sure she is my mate. I want her so bad. She is the one I had been waiting and longing for all these years. And she is the one who save me when I get hurt in the mountain."
"Oh. My… But, son, your move is wrong. These is so wrong. These plan of yours is not going to make her come willingly with all her heart. Instead, you are making her submit herself with your request and command. That is not going to work. No. No. I'm so disappointed with the decision you make. It was like I failed to teach you to be a true man and mate."
"Dad… I'm sorry if you feels that way, from what I can say, these is the only way for me to take her away from where she is. She is living in poverty. Small and shabby house, working herself out from early morning to late evening, and even her clothes was like from a thrift shop. It broke my heart looking at her doing all those things when she can be the ruler when she's with me.
"These is the fastest way. I have no time to court her. Our kingdom and her country did not on a good term all these time. So, my plan will not only help me bring my mate here but it will help our kingdom to make an alliance with the next country. It's killing two birds with one stone. I can't think of another way out. I had breach their border illegally. And I can't show myself up in front of her all of a sudden. So I have to do it this way."
"Son, are you even on your right mind. She will be either getting closer or she is going to run away even further. Your choice is really a risky one. I have nothing much to say about it. And get yourself ready to confront your mother with this decision. She's going to get real mad and furious. She going to have so much to say when she knew your purpose of your action to start the war. Only woman can understand each other. They are all mysteries to us man."
"I get it, dad. Don't worry about me. I will figure out the solutions afterwards. As for mom, I will have a slow talk with her later. I'm sure that she will understand and willing to help me get my mate's trust on me. I'm not sure how, but it will come to me later. Hopefully, it will work."
"Okay, fine. Whatever your solution is, I hope you will make it come true. * Sigh* "Anyway, I'm leaving first."
"Umm… Thanks, dad. Have a safe journey back."
Dylan's office went silent for a while. He take a sharp breath and run his big, rough hand on his face. He know all his plan to bring his mate is a d*ck move, but it is the fastest route for him to protect her. As soon as she take a step inside his turf, she will be safe and sound from any threat. No one will dare to challenge him as long as she is in his hand.
"See… I've told you before. You make a wrong move. Lunching a war is not the best way. I only agree with you up till the revenge part where we raid the place they produce all the lethal substances. Not the part where you instruct them to lengthen the war and hurt the innocent."
"Just watch and see the result instead of complaining, will you, Max? You did not even gave me idea but blaming me all the time."
"I just disagree with your plan. Not complaining. I don't want feels as if she is just a bargain chip for freedom and peace of her country."
"Yeah. Yeah. Shut up already. I already have a headache right now. It had been weeks since the last time I meet her. I miss her so much. The emptiness already make me as if I'm walking in the air instead of on the ground. The dream, it makes me having a hard time all the time."
"The goes the same for me. I want to mate her as soon as I meet her. Just you watch. I had been imagine her in my every dream. She will be ours forever. I will leave no chance to reject us. I will never accept no as the answer."
"Are you gone insane? I will never allow you to act rashly. That is even a stupid move. My plan is better than yours. Your move will make her fear us even more and left us full with hatred. So, no. Don't you dare to do that. And that is final."
