As the motorcade came to stop, security teams swarmed out to secure the location. Only after a nod from the lead agent. The door to the car opened and the passenger got down. Her staff was waiting on the tarmac near the air stairs set up for her to board.

There was also a man waiting as she neared he pleaded "Roma I urge to reconsider"

"Sebastian, I know you mean well, but I need to do this" she responded and said "I need you to stay back and run things from here" his face was masked in protest but kept silent as there was no point. Her mind was made up.

"Thank you Sebastian" she said seeing his compliance and alighted the stairs and in to the waiting air plane.

She settled in to the cabin and air hostesses fluttered around setting up things for her and getting refreshments.

One air hostess came to her and said "Roma, the captain is ready"

She picked up the phone mounted on the air frame next to her and waited for someone to pick up and then said "Captain, let's go" and simply hung up.

Outside the powerful engines of the 747 revved up for its lengthy flight.

Next morning. In Alpha Nick's office Adrian and Nick were seated sipping on hot coffee delivered a while back, both silent absorbed in their own thoughts, both thinking of the way forward.

 Adrian broke the silence "So, your troubles re over Alpha Nick" he stated and looked at the Alpha "But the road to recovery is going to be a long one"

"Thank you" Alpha Nick responded "Thank you for coming to our aid" He said sincerely. They did save him from extension but why was he feeling that he had to sell his soul to the devil to achieve it? Maybe because he witnessed first-hand the destruction and mayhem Roma could unleash. A dying monarchy it certainly was not. It was a slumbering giant you did not want to awaken ever. But he was not sure of his role yet or his fate for that matter.

As if he read his thoughts Adrian responded "You have a long road Alpha, I do not envy the position you are in, however" he added "We will take care of the rogues, they will be disbanded and split, some of them will be sent out of the country to be relocated in different packs across the world. Of course all of them are loyal to Roma. But there is a situation, I thought I will discuss with you"

Nick sat up curiously "The rouges have a lot of folks from Colorado, assimilated when their packs were destroyed, they wish to stay here. And since yours is the only pack...only relevant pack left standing they want to join yours"

A flash of uneasiness passed over Nicks face and Adrian did not miss it "You have nothing to worry about, they will be docile, they did not willing join the rogues and all they want is a peaceful life. This is just a request, the decision is of course yours"

Nick nodded gratefully "I will need to speak to my pack before I decide"

Adrian nodded his head "Of course Alpha"

"What about the Rogue Alpha?" Nick heard he was still being held captive under heavy guard. As long as he was alive Nick would feel uneasy, there is always a possibility of wolves regrouping under him.
