Loyal Blood

PAST

Ares sat in his office with a smile on his face. Shamika just left after giving him lunch and some head.

His cell rang, and Estelle's name came across the screen. Luckily, he was in a good mood, so he answered.

"Hello, grandmother."

"Ares, how are you?"

"I am well. Is everything okay with you?"

"Yes...but are you aware of what's going on in werewolf pack dealings."

"Gran, you know I'm not aware..."

"Ugh, you and your brother..."

Ares smiled.

"Well, many of the Alphas are getting very curious about Ecstasia."

He turned his chair, looking out his office window.

"Okay, that's nothing new."

"Yes, but they're in talks of a possible invasion."

"They must not value their lives."

"When it comes to power, nothing else matters. Let's just hope it stays as only talks."

"Yeah, for their sake."

Estelle chuckled. "Fearless just like your father."

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

"I have a few eligible fem werewolves that are dying to meet you and your brother."

He smiled. "No thanks, Gran. Good looking out though."

"Okay, the doors are always open. I love you, grandson."

"Talk to you soon. Love you, too."

After hanging up, Ares sent a text message to his brother's group chat. Within a few minutes, his phone was going off.

Ares: There's a possible danger targeting mother's queendom.

Amadi: Does Mother know about this?

Ares: I don't know

Ethan: I'm sure Intel knows something

Gabriel: I have some new weapons that I'm dying to use

Ares: Of course you do

Amadi: Awesome, Gabe!

Ares: Are we waiting on Ecstasia to investigate or...

Ethan: You already know the answer, lil bro

Gabriel: Yes! Let's fuckin' go! 🧨

The four brothers discuss their meeting spot. They were going to get more information from Ecstasia's intel then search for the threat themselves.

When it comes to their mother, all bets were off.

"Mr. Cordier, there's a Ms. Hunter here to see you."

Confusion was on his face. "Bring her in."

He hasn't seen Bianca in years.

"Hello, Ares."

She had caramel colored skin and long curly hair. Her hazel eyes stared at him with confidence.

Ares leaned back. "What are you doing here?"

She took a seat without it being offered.

"I haven't seen you in a while...I've missed you."

"Missed me for what?"
