Chereads / Legend of the Kannais / Chapter 19 - The Plot of Alphas

Chapter 19 - The Plot of Alphas

It was a wonderful Saturday morning. The breeze was soothing and the clouds overhead gathered with no sun in sight.

It had the look of a possible rainfall but nature hasn't decided yet on how to go about it. Azrael Herrington walked out of the Alex Bayly residence and it was then he remembered that he hadn't collected her number.

He cursed inwardly all the first 10 generations of Damien Norman for distracting him. He then shelved that aside and started walking along the quiet street.

on the way ahead, he noticed that there was no taxi in sight. He got his phone and decided to order a private transport service agency named "Road 2.0".

On their website, a 15 minutes delay was stated before the transporting car arrives. Azrael decided to wait in the spot on which he placed a "Road 2.0" order.

As he waited, he started to consider the words of the apparition of Bianca Zul in the prison. Just as he started to think about it, she appeared.

Azrael was initially not aware of her presence as he was deep in thought but a few seconds later, he noticed a flash by his side. He turned immediately to find the woman he met in the police cell, who looked crazy then, was standing beside him now.

She looked very different from that time. Azrael was startled by her sudden appearance and shifted backward.

"What do you want? How did you get here?.. what is all this?..." Azrael was truly scared.

"Azrael Herrington, don't worry I'm on your side, besides, I'm just an apparition, I can't touch you, I'll just pass right through. I just came to say hello, I'll be rooting for you henceforth..." After saying that, the apparition disappeared.

Azrael looked at the point where she disappeared with fear still gripping his heart. "What a strange lady..." He thought.

~kpinnn - pinnnnn- pinnnnpinnnnn (car horn)~

A stranger honked a blue silvery Toyota corolla. This distracted Azrael from his thoughts. He first thought that this was the service he ordered.

He moved closer to the side of the car and bent his head slightly through the lowered glass, "Road 2.0?" He asked the driver who wore a suit and dark shades.

The driver removed his dark shades and looked at Azrael. "I was asked to come and pick you up by an old man in white. He asked me to give you that description that you'd understand..." The driver responded.

"But I ordered a private transport..." Azrael looked as if he was caught in two minds wondering what to do.

He picked his phone up and saw that the driver was scheduled to meet him in two minutes. He decided on a new plan but this would depend on this new driver.

"Could you wait for two minutes while that other private ride arrives? I'll just pay him off and we'll be on our way..." Azrael suggested.

The driver looked at him with dissatisfaction, then he looks at his watch, he uses a finger to tap his watch to indicate that 'time was ticking'.

Azrael saw the impatience of the driver and knew he would have a better advantage following the driver rather than going alone trying to find the old man.

He decided to follow the driver. He opened the door of the front passenger seat reluctantly and sat down. The driver didn't bother to ask any questions, he just switched on the ignition and sped off into the distance.

Shortly after, the private transport that Azrael ordered arrived. The driver of the private transport got to the spot and found out that nobody was there. He decided to put a call across to Azrael.

Azrael had to apologize and ensure he paid off the private transport driver, while he followed the other driver to meet the old man.

Alex Bayly had been worried ever since Azrael left.

Damien had tried everything he could to make her excited for their outing, but she could only manage a smile.

Damien wanted to show off so he decided that they both ride his black S.U.V.

Alex was too moody to care about Damien's tactics.

A short while later, around 11 am, they drove into the recreational and sports center. It was a huge place filled with all kinds of contraptions.

There was a normal merry-go-round on the ground level, there was the vertical one, with everyone practically suspended.

There was a contraption that swings the people riding it at terrible speed and brings it to a halt just in time. Everyone was either screaming, laughing, having fun, or just enjoying the scenery.

Some were even puking due to the swinging intensity of some of the contraptions.

Alex Bayly and Damien Norman slowly walked into the area. Damien was checking to see the one they could try first, while Alex was looking down, deep in thought.

In another part of the recreational center, two alpha werewolves were sitting on seats placed at both edges of a table. Behind them were their betas and omega's all dressed in suits and having a small messaging wire around their ears.

"James, I learnt that Zuck Danesworth has found the Kannais and he plans to marry her before we even get wind of it..." The Alpha to the right spoke to the one on the left.

"Is it this nonsense you want to tell me about Lucky? Is this why you invited me to Wolvescamp? You do know we are intruding on the territory of Zuck, ...?" The Alpha named James responds.

Alpha Lucky Aube stood up and slammed his fist on the table, and this act triggered the betas and omegas of Alpha James.

"Listen to me James, I'm not joking here, if Zuck gets control over the Kannais, we would all be slaves to him. Let's unite and overthrow him at once, he can be killed after all..." Alpha Lucky Aube's expression didn't change despite the reaction of Alpha James's Betas and Omegas.

Alpha James on the other hand breathed deeply as he tried to consider the possibility. If truly Zuck got that kind of power, he would not hesitate to bring them under his control. He was already a power-hungry Alpha, but with the boost from the Kannais, everyone would be under him.

Alpha James raised his head and looked at Alpha Lucky who was standing. "What do you suggest we do?" he asked.

"Let's kill the Kannais and end all of this once and for all, then we can find a way to kill Zuck..." Alpha Lucky suggested without blinking.

At this exact time, Alex Bayly and Damien Norman passed by the table around which these two alphas and their underlings have gathered around.

None of them knew Alex Bayly's exact identity at that time so they weren't aware that the Kannais they were plotting to get just passed by them.

"How do we go about that.." Alpha James asked while weighing his options in his mind.

"infiltration...." Alpha Lucky responded while tapping his fingers on his other palm, giving a hidden message to Alpha James who smiled upon understanding the hidden message.

The tapping was a code that only a few who belonged to this group of alpha knows or understand, it meant werewolf undercover killers. (WUK).

The WUK organization has been operating silently for centuries. They can't be summoned unless one was ready to pay a heavy price or if you belong to one of their supporting wolf packs. If you are not favored by these two conditions and you manage to summon them, you might be the one being killed, that's how undercover and ruthless they are.
