Chapter 100
Daran and Janet made the decision to leave for the Great Canyon tomorrow at midnight.
Their main target for this trip was to find out more information about the Rogue King. So that they could
be better prepared when they met this mysterious figure again on the battlefield.
And if they saw the Rogue King, they would also take the chance and act on it. Killing
that son of a bitch was the best way to end this war.
In order to be more discrete, Daran only planned on telling a small group of people that they were
leaving.
On the following day of Veronica’s death, Daran called the Gammas, Jared, Angelina,
Kass, Balvina, and Glen into his tent.
Then Janet informed them about her and Daran’s plan.
Steven was the one to voice out his objection.
“Are you guys both crazy?” he cried, “Veronica just died. Right here in this city. Which means that the
Rogue King’s man is right by our side! Now we should be focusing on finding the murderer, instead of
sending our best Alpha and best warrior straight to hell!”
The others didn’t say anything. But Janet could tell from their facial expression that they all agreed with
Steven.
“Daran, you are always a calm and wise person.” Jeff frowned looking at Daran, “This can’t be your
idea.”
“In fact, this is exactly my idea.” Daran said deeply, “Even if we can locate the murderer this time, the
Rogue King can still send more people here and keep stirring
the water. This is what he is good at-stabbing us in the back. And we don’t even know who he really is.
We need to find a way to force him to come out.”
“And don’t worry about our safety.”
Janet added to that..
“The Rogue King had never dared to come at us directly. He always hides in the darkness and lets his
puppets do the dirty work. This further proves our theory that the Rogue King himself is not a good
warrior nor a person with a strong physique. Daran and I won’t be in any life-threatening danger.”
Everyone in this room lapsed into silence.
Janet was right.
Both she and Daran were strong werewolves. Even if they couldn’t kill the Rogue King, they still
wouldn’t be risking their own lives.
“But…but what about the murderer?”
Maxie asked after a long pause.
“If
you and Alpha go to the Great Canyon, who will leave behind and lead the search. work? We still need
a leader in this city.”
“You guys.”
“You guys.”
Daran looked around the room and said, “You are my most trusted fellows, which is why I called you
into this room today and let you know about my plan. After we leave, you will stay here and keep this
city safe.”
“But not me,” Glen said abruptly. “I will come with you.”
He clenched his fists and looked at Daran. His eyes glittered in anger and hatred.
“That bastard killed Veronica. I fucking want to rip his throat apart! So please, give me a chance to
avenge my love! I will prove myself useful to you!” he hissed.
Janet and Daran exchanged a brief look.
They already knew that Glen would say this before they called this meeting. They couldn’t stop a man
from avenging his lover.
“Sure. If you insist,” Daran nodded.
“I will come with you if Glen is going,” Jared chimed in and said, “I am Glen’s Alpha. This is my war as
well.”
Glen jerked around to look at him, “You don’t need to do this for me, Alpha Jared…’
“Oh please.”
Jared wrapped an arm around his shoulder and smiled. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“You were always there by my side helping me with everything when we were little. Just let me help
you out this time, OK?”
He then looked towards Daran, “Permission to get on board, Alpha Daran?”
“We can use your help but…” Daran pondered. “If you come with us, there will be no Alpha left in this
city.”
“I can call Alpha Casper and invite him over later. It won’t be an issue,” Balvina suggested.
Right, Casper.
Janet rubbed her temple and let out a sigh internally.
She hadn’t got a chance to tell her brother about this plan yet.
She could already imagine his anger when he heard about this later. Casper was a very protective
person. He would never agree to this if he were here.
The good thing was that she would already be gone by the time he got here.
“Alright. So that is settled,” Janet clapped her hands. “Jared, Glen, Daran, and I will be leaving today
around midnight-”
“Count me in,” Kass said abruptly.
He was standing in the back of this crowd. No one paid any attention to him before he spoke up.
Now he pushed through the crowd and walked up to Daran and Janet.
“I am coming with you,” he said firmly.
“You?”
Daran narrowed his eyes.
“The people going are either Alpha or Gamma. What makes you think that you are qualified?”
“I was a Rogue,” Kass said in a steady voice. “I know about stuff. If you are going into the rogue’s
territory, don’t you think you should include someone from the inside?”
Daran frowned slightly. He still didn’t trust Kass with his full heart.
“This is your call,” he said to Janet.
Janet smiled and offered Kass her hand, “Of course. And I am glad that you are here with me.”
“Always,” Kass held her hand and said solemnly.
So a small group of 5 was formed with Janet, Daran, Jared, Glen, and Kass. This group was just the
right size. They got enough help but also wouldn’t have to worry about attracting other’s attention.
After the meeting, Janet led Angelina to the side and warned her about Harper.
“I think she has something to do with Veronica’s death,” Janet said in a low voice. Angelina widened
her eyes, “You do? Do you have any proof?”
“I don’t.”
Janet shook her head.
“And I know that her alibi checks out and the wound size doesn’t make sense. But my gut is telling me
this-Harper is off.”
Angelina murmured, “I thought she had changed…” Yet even she sounded less sure at this moment.
“Yes, people change, but not that quickly. And I kept thinking back to that day when she was gone all
afternoon. She claimed that she was not feeling so well and was resting in her tent. But I clearly saw
her around that Smith Shop. Now that I think back to it, I should never let it slide.”
Janet looked at Angelina and said in a serious voice, “I am probably just paranoid…but do keep an eye
on her. Plus that Lance and his wife from the Smith Shop.”
“Will do,” Angelina nodded.
After a day of preparation, the group of them gathered at the North Gate and wast ready to leave the
city under the cover of darkness.
The rest who decided to stay all come to see them off.
Janet hugged her dear friends one by one. When she got to Balvina, she sighed and said, “Don’t let
Casper get too mad at me, alright?”
“Well, I can’t control that.” Balvina chuckled, “You can tell him to calm down yourself when you come
back safe. Oh and Kass, try your best to protect our Gamma, alright?”
Kass nodded, “You have my word.”

Angelina stepped up at this moment and handed Janet a box of snacks, “I packed you
some food. Good luck with everything.”
“Thank you,” Janet smiled.
She looked around her side, “Ready to leave?”
Members of her group nodded together.
They all shifted into their wolves and dashed out of the Crimson Fortress. They were heading north.
Soon they would leave the borderline and set foot into the rogue’s territory, a mysterious land full of
unknown danger.
This time they would finally get to meet their biggest rival, the Rogue King.
