/Zion's POV/
"George come inside." I invite him in and push Fenrir to the back of my mind because I know his presence is overbearing.
"Lycan King , you requested for me." George says while baring his neck to me.
"George, you're one of my trusted gammas, I do not understand why you're still baring your neck to me…..you should have gotten used to this overbearing presence of my Lycan." I express and I'm slightly disappointed in him.
"King, it's not easy to do so....it's like as if a pressure is weighing my neck down." He explains to the me and i decide to dismiss the conversation.
"There's a reason why y'all are trained to protect the royals! But can you even protect the person that you can't withstand his presence?" I ask.
"Sorry king." He apologizes after realizing my point.
"Pack your things, we'll be going on a trip…..a trace of aconitine was found so we will be going there to see if we can find a lead or a loose ends." I inform him.
"Noted king, when will we be leaving?" He asks me.
"We'll be leaving tomorrow." I notify him.
"Okay sir, am I dismissed?" He inquires.
"Yes you're dismissed." I dismiss him.

"Adelaide, do you have it prepared?" I ask my sister because it's already morning and I need to leave.
"Zion, it's not even dawn yet...…I did not have a good night rest because I was making the suppressant potion." She whines in the mindlink.
I know y'all will be wondering that why can I mindlink my sister who is without a Lycan…. It's not as if she's without a Lycan….. her Lycan is recessive but she can still mindlink.
"Adelaide, come to my room this instant with everything you need to prepare me for my trip." I command her.
"Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes ." She conveys.
"Oh well, Hi brother.... What's up." She strolls inside.
"Adelaide always knock before entering." I reprimand her but as usual she just flips her hair and flings herself on my couch.
"It's not as if you don't know I'm coming Zion, come off it." She says.
"I do not have time for banters and discussions, let's get to work." I inform her.
"Oh well, it was hard getting the ingredients on such a short notice but I was able to get them and I made enough but I added enough Anacyclus pyrethrum, and brewed it with redstone so it will last for a long time." She explains.
"Okay, thank you let's get down with the aging spell.....do you have to do a spell for the suppression of Fenrir also?"I ask her.
"I do not want to take chances, so I will do the suppression spell also." She says.
"Okay, that's a better idea...I do not want anybody to suspect anything so we'll just do the suppression spell."
"Power of air, a gentle breeze
Communication comes to me with total ease
Right words flow from me with grace
Whether by phone, text or face to face
Effective speech is what I desire
And that my words only inspire
With the highest good and harm to none
I wish this body and face gets old as the day
Whilst this body and face gets old let the soul remain young and unaffected
This is my will, let it be done."
She recited and I look into the mirror and watch my features change, my skin having wrinkles and my hair having specks gray hair.
"Now let's move on to the suppressant potion." She says and I look at her.
"With you spitting out blood? No maybe we should take a break." I persuade her.
"Let's get this over with, you know this is expected." She proceeds
"Sleep, sleep….eyes that see
Sleep, sleep…power in him.
Element of nature..put him to sleep
Spell of suppression, here I recite
By the power of the nature let him be suppressed."
Adelaide finishes and coughs out more blood and I rush to her side.
"Adelaide are you okay?" I ask with concern and she nods her head weakly.
"I'll just disappear to my room, be safe and I see you smiling in the next few weeks." She bids her farewell and smiles weakly.
"Adelaide, take care of yourself." I plead.
"George,are you ready? Meet me in the man's garage." I command.
"Okay king, I'm there already." He replies back.
"Alexander, I'm going to the pack, take care of the yourself and most importantly take care of the pack members." I tell him.
"Bye, take care of yourself too and do not stress yourself out too much." Alexander advises.
**********************************************
"Hello,Mr Zion,welcome to the hotel…..your penthouse is ready and I'll have the closest room available to the penthouse booked for your assistant" My hotel manager rambles.
"Hello, thank you." I inform him and pass him by.
"George, go and rest a bit....the room is available now." I dismiss him.
"I'll go and talk to the Alpha of the pack, so as not to feel threatened by our visit." I inform George.
"Then I'll be going with you, King." He insists.
"Well if you must come with me then let's be on our way." I say then turn my back so we can go to the pack and get this over with.
"King, will you be revealing your identity to him?" George inquires and I see no reason for me to do so.
"Absolutely no, I do not see any reason for me to explain or reveal who I am to him...we're just Lycans sent by the King to scout the area for trails the enemies might have left behind."
I explain to him.
"Okay king, by the way your presence is withstanding enough for me not to bare my neck today." He says triumphantly.
"Don't feel victorious I had a suppressant spell done so as not to invite unnecessary attention to us...…we can't stay on the low without the suppression spell." I smirk because I just bruised his ego.
