Chapter 107
LLOYD’S POV (EARTH ELEMENTAL)
Well, I had known deep down in my heart that Alpha Lance won’t accept the proposition. Even I would’ve found it fishy if I were in his shoes and that is not good at all. We as Elementals need to be united before we can win this battle.
The night I had that dual with Luna Reign, she made me fall hard on the order side of the woods with just a wave of her hand and encircled me with fire. Those were both Air and Fire Elemental abilities she had used to render me helpless, but had it been those Elementals were present, we would have been able to stop her.
We need to be united, that is one thing for sure and I will make sure that happens, that why I have summoned them in these woods for a private meeting just between the four of us.
As Elementals, we have the ability to communicate and connect with each other where ever we are and that’s why it is possible for us to have this very secret meeting.
If Alpha Hardin cannot convince Alpha Lance to join forces, then I can convince the Fire Elemental to convince his Alpha to accept our offer. If there’s one good thing about us Elementals, it’s the fact that our Alpha’s listen to us, they consider every opinion we bring up, that is why I believe that if I am able to convince Reed, then Alpha Lance will be in and that will be same for the Air Elemental, Kol. I don’t even know to which pack Kol belongs to or who his Alpha is.
“So for how long are we going to keep waiting for Kol?” Reed, the fire Elemental ask impatiently in a bored tone.
“Let’s give him a little more time”
“Who is his Alpha anyway?” Kevin asks curious and I just shrug.
“No idea. He’s a mysterious person” Suddenly, a strong win starts blowing and it causes the trees to sway to the side in a uniform manner and fallen leaves rise up in air, swirling haphazardly and the birds start chirping as the fly to take refuge in their various nests. The wind is so intense that we all have to hold on tight to the tree trunk we are currently seated on so we don’t fly away.
Bloody Air Elemental!
“Hello!” A voice greets and immediately, the wind stops blowing and everything is calm again. We all give him deadly stares and he pouts like a five year old. “I am so sorry about that, just that I’ve always been the type to like grand entrances. Hope I’m forgiven”
He’s a clown and I will definitely have my fun manipulating him.
“I’m Kol by the way” He introduces as he stretches his hand on forward to me for a handshake which I wholeheartedly take.
“I’m Lloyd, the Earth Elemental of the Far North Pack”
“Nice to meet you Lloyd”
“Same here”
“I’m Reed, Fire Elemental from the East Wing Pack”
“Pleasure to meet you Reed”
“Same here”
“And I’m Kevin, Water Elemental of the Far North Pack. It’s nice to meet you”
“The pleasure us all mine” He replies with a smile and I just smile as I nod.
“So Kol, from which pack do you hail from?” I ask and I can see his already dark eyes grow darker.
“Well, I don’t have a pack”
“I… I …I don’t think I understand you” I stutter.
“I’m actually a rogue!” He states and the three of us look at each other in total shock.
A rogue!
“What do you mean by you are a rogue?” I ask a bit confused.
“What does it mean to be a rogue?”
“You don’t belong to a pack, you are a stray werewolf”
“Exactly!”
“How did this happen?” I ask rhetorically.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“What exactly, me becoming a rogue or a lowlife like me having such prestigious power?”
“Of course not the latter! How did you become a rogue?”
“Well, I was born a rogue. My mother had no pack”
“What about your father?”
“He’s a dick”
“Ohh!”
“Enough about me and my boring self, why was I summoned?”
“Well Kol, I’m sure you know about the Elemental Battle that has begun”
“Yeah, I know about it”
“And Reed here belongs to the East Wing Pack, while Kevin and I belong to the Far North Pack and we both serve our Alphas”
“Wow, sounds like an honorable thing to do”
“It sure is. So what I wanted to bring to you all in the light, is the fact that Alpha Hardin and his mate, Luna Reign are ten times stronger than we will ever be! I have felt their power and it is not something we can stand against as individuals and win. Doing that means we are out on a suicide mission.”
“I have felt that power too, it’s crazy” Reed confirms and I nod in agreement.
“I’m happy you can relate. You see, earlier today, my Alpha, Alpha Ralph made a proposition to your Alpha, Alpha Lance, but he refused to go in. I greatly understand his doubts but truth be told, we stand no chance against this battle, together with our Alphas if we are not united as Elementals.”
“The problem my Alpha had was, who gets the power after the battle has been won? Who among the Alphas will become the Paramount Alpha?” Reed asks and I look at him queerly.
Yeah, he’s skeptical and even I will be, but I have to convince him.
“Reed we still have a big battle in our way, how about we keep that aside for now? We will cross that bridge once we get there” I explain as he smiles.
“You do know that in the course of crossing that bridge, one can throw the other off instead right? That’s what power can make a man do. This is not the kind if matter we involve trust in. This is just not it” He defends.
“Reed, calm down. You are thinking too far”
“No, I’m thinking smart. I will never let my Alpha be disadvantaged, ever!”
I let out a heavy sigh of frustration as I close my eyes and gently rub both temples with my fingers. What exactly is wrong with these people and over precautions.
I raise my head up once more and look at Kill who is looking at us in amusement, not even bothered about what we are talking about.
“What do you think Kol?”
“Well, I don’t know. I don’t belong to a pack, remember?”
“But you need to serve an Alpha with that power of yours in this Battle, you can’t just stay in the background. You are the freaking air Elemental and we need you.”
“I have absolutely no plans of serving any Alpha because I am no Alpha’s puppet! Besides none of those Alpha’s have ever welcome me in their packs. All they do was capture and lock me up, had me tortured in their horrible prisons, especially these two Alphas, Alpha Ralph and Alpha Lance, none of them ever welcomed me in their pack because I was a rogue, and right now, I don’t see myself becoming allies with them, neither do I see myself being some Alpha’s puppet!”
“We are not puppets!” I defend.
“I didn’t say you were”
“But that’s what that last statement insinuates”
“That superstitious mind of your is taking you no where!”
“Ugh! You are impossible” I turn to Reed. “So Reed, what do you think?”
“I think this is a bad idea. You and your Alpha keep saying when we get to the bridge we are gonna cross it, but that doesn’t settle for me. This is a battle that has to be fought individually, that is how it has been fought in the past and we can’t just change things right. Bless the Moon goddess for giving you and your pack up to two Elemental powers and you all should do well to train hard. For me, I’m sticking with Alpha only and I believe we have what it takes to go in for this battle and win, the Moon goddess made it this way and it shall be so. That said, have a nice day you all!” Then he gets up and majestically walks away.
Fool!
“That was intense!” Kol exclaims.
“Kol, why don’t you join our pack? I swear my Alpha will be good to you, he is going to treat you specially and of course give you a special post in his pack after all this is over, you will no longer have to be a rogue again.”
“I’m afraid I have already accepted the fact that I am a rogue and I love it. I will not be exploited by any power hungry Alpha. The two of you do well to assist you Alpha during this war, I am hardly interested in it and I will not take part in it. Goodbye!”
The he turns around and leaves as well.
“Now that didn’t go as planned” Kevin Laments.
“They will come around, I can assure you that.”
And I promise they will. They might have special powers and think they know how to make cool decisions for themselves, but I am their leader and I will make sure to unite them whether they like it not!
