[-In the Conference Room of the mansion of Alpha Morris-]

The Alpha of the Jade Pack gathered his own elders for an important meeting.

​​

It has brought to the attention of the elders regarding the situation of the Jade Pack.

Unlike with Golden Moon Pack, the Jade Pack has 5 elders which serves as the closest to the Alpha.

If the elders of the Golden Moon Pack monitor each move of their Alpha and have their own decision-making. They even can challenge the authority of the Alpha when needed be.

But the elders of the Jade Pack are totally different. They serve their Alpha with utmost reverence and respect with no authority to challenge their Alpha's decisions.

Ever since the father of Alpha Morris took over the Jade Pack, the economy of Jade Pack boomed and made each elders rich. Changing the lives of the entire members of the wolf pack. Especially its elders' family, including the wolf pack's officers.

Most of all, the father of Alpha Morris was their closest friend and the oldest among their group. When he died, no one challenged Alpha Morris to take charge as the new Alpha. He even became the minister of treasury of King Viktor for years.

Thus, making each elders of the Jade Pack entrust the future of the pack to Alpha Morris. No one could even come close to the brilliance and skills of the son of their dearest friend. Even in terms of achievement within a short span of time when he was guided by his own father, Alpha Morris was undeniably reliable and qualified to take charge after his father. Which the elders gave their whole faith in him … to Alpha Morris!

Among the responsibility of the elders of Jade Pack was to make sure they could offer extra help and assistance to their Alpha, whatever it may be. And to make sure that the members of the Jade Pack remained loyal and monitored at whole time.

Alpha Morris was too occupied with greater things and bigger responsibilities within the kingdom and at the same time with his own wolf pack to even manage each members of his wolf pack.

This was something he left to his elders as their responsibility to the Jade Pack.

"I gathered you all here today, because I want to clarify things to all of you. All of you deserve to know my plans and the things which will take place in following days." Alpha Morris informed his elders.

Each elders were seated on a luxurious chair while Alpha Morris was seated in the middle.

"We know the pack is in vulnerable state due to the betrayal of Prince Miryo and giving important information which brings harm to our wolf pack. Are we sure, it is right to entrust our defense to his older brother, Alpha?" one of the elders spoke in a concerned manner.

Another elder spoke after hearing his fellow elder share his concern, "You have connections with the powerful CEO's. We can surely manage to pull strings from your network of connections and bring human hunters on our side. We are not the richest wolf pack for nothing, Alpha …"

Before the elder could even finish his thought, Alpha Morris gestured for everyone to silence and let him talk.

All men in the room became quiet and focused their attention on their Alpha.

"This is not something we could easily rely on humans. Remember, we are werewolves from the core! We may have great deals and connections with human but never trust humans in the business of werewolves and our own safety. Do not gamble our lives in their hands!" a serious tone on Alpha Morris' voice.

He then continued, "All our warriors will focus on your own safety. While the royal prince and his army will be the front liners. There will be less casualties on our side if there will be an attack. It is better to accept the help from King Viktor than refuse him."

One by one the elders looked at each other and nodded in concurrence with their Alpha.

"Plus, we cannot let King Viktor or any outsider know that we are more capable than we are supposed to be. We cannot appear as threatening so that we can keep other Alphas at bay. Because once we appear threatening to others … especially to King Viktor, we might get ourselves in trouble and they may not make more effort in providing us assistance. It is better to have help from them than have nothing at all …" Alpha Morris explained to all elders.

"I understand now! You are right, Alpha! After hearing those wolf packs getting too much regulation and interference from King Viktor due to the threat level they manifest towards the royal family." Another elder shared his understanding from the words of Alpha Morris.

"This is why I like you the most Sir Tessio! You easily understand me and get my point … King Viktor does not want competition in his throne. He wants it preserved within his reach. So, let us give him that in exchange of his strongest army. Why need to get our hands dirty? If we can let someone do it for us. All we need to do is keep ourselves richer and closer to the throne. When the day comes … that King Viktor could no longer serve as the Alpha King, we could easily gain the entire wealth and influence of the royal family." Alpha Morris revealed his intentions.

He further elaborated, "They will be mere figureheads of the kingdom while we will be entrenched within their throne. Royal family members as the face of the kingdom … and our wolf pack as the true owners of their wealth and power. Imagine the glory it will bring to our wolf pack. The greatness that lies ahead for all of us."

Cheers and applause were given to Alpha Morris.

All men were in the room. Unlike the Golden Moon Pack, Jade Pack has not allowed any woman to be part of their important meetings.

Then his daughter, Laura, was announced entering the conference room.

"Father … Prince Alcyd and his entourage have arrived. Amber is already entertaining them for you as they wait in your main office." Laura informed her ambitious father.

Alpha Morris adjourned the meeting and started to prepare to meet the Alpha Prince of the Golden Moon Pack and his entourage.

One after the other, each elder formally excused themselves as they take their leave.

"Are you not coming with me, Laura?" Alpha Morris asked his daughter.

"No need father! I have to look after my younger brother. He had a fever this morning. It will be his first shifting tonight." Laura's reply.

"Oh, yes! You do that. Make sure everything is okay with him." Alpha Morris kissed Laura's forehead before heading to his main office.

What Alpha Morris does not know … Laura heard the entire meeting because she planted a recording device under the table unnoticed.

Her earing was connected to the recording device which allowed her to hear everything.

"My father thinks I am just a mere household daughter who does his bidding. He forgot that too much ambition can kill." Laura uttered to herself silently while touching the chair of her father and took her seat where her father sat.

Looking at the entire view of the conference room.

"One day ... I will also have my chance ..." Laura seriously thought to herself while she imagined herself as the Alpha of the Jade Pack.
