A heavy silence fell after the White Wolf King finished his story.
The residents of Wolfbane, though all werewolves, hadn't all been privy to the plan to mold the White Wolf King. Many had been kept in the dark.
Moreover, the werewolves were a tight-knit community, and the White Wolf King had received a great deal of kindness from them.
Now, looking back, both Mike and the White Wolf King could see the key players in this twisted game.
The puppet master behind the scenes had sought to create a more powerful Wolf Alpha and had chosen the White Wolf King as their pawn.
As part of their plan, every resident of Wolfbane, regardless of their involvement, had to be silenced.
And what better way to eliminate them than to manipulate the White Wolf King, in his vulnerable state, into doing their dirty work?
Whoever had orchestrated this plan, their ruthlessness was undeniable.
