"Alpha" David asked with all seriousness leaning over the desk towards Nick "Did it ever occur to you that the whole thing might have been orchestrated by Roma?"

Chapter 29
---------------

Silence reigned after David's statement.

Nick's brain was whirling at the possibility. While his first instinct was to deny it, the help he had received had indeed been too fast and too efficient.

What if...?

He needed to hold on to that thought, he did not know David's purpose and perhaps he was sent here to exactly do this.

"For what purpose would Roma do this?" He asked instead.

"For exactly the same outcome you mentioned alpha. For the state of Colorado, which is conveniently in the heartland of America but in the control of Roma now and with this god knows what is next." David pointed out.

"Well, regardless. What's done is done" Nick said dismissively, he would contemplate on this later but not in front of David.

"Don't you even want to know? You want to be beholden to the very people who might have caused this calamity in the first place?" David questioned.

"And how would that change things?" Nick asked "I would still be beholden right? You can't break the blood oath." He didn't want to argue with David.

"True, you and I cannot" David agreed, the blood oath can only be broken by one person, Roma.

"But the world council certainly can" David declared.

"The council?" Nick asked confused. What did the council have to do with this?

"Yes, the world council can force Roma to break it" David further clarified.

"Listen" Nick said after a pause gathering his thoughts "You do not have any proof of this and for all you know they saved my life and now you want me to go behind their back to the council?"

"I agree I don't have any proof, but you got to have doubts don't you? The whole thing is a little too convenient." David insisted.

"Maybe" Nick gave in a little.

David seeing the crack drove in.

"Alpha" David stated "Here is a golden opportunity for you to gain your freedom back. The freedom of your entire pack from the blood oath, which condemns your pack to literal slavery."

"Go before the council, let's force Roma's hand to break your oath" David paused and added "If Roma did indeed free you without any malice, if you find that their cause was just. You can always pledge your allegiance to Roma, but then you can do it from your free will." He declared and went in for the kill "Freewill Alpha. Think about it, you have a golden chance of gaining your freewill back?" David reasoned.

"How?" Nick asked curious.

"Tomorrow, there is an emergency session of the world council in Canada. Go there with me, go in front of the council" David urged.

"Roma is not someone to be trifled with." Nick said. You don't play games with the world's most power werewolves and live to tell the tale.

"That's the beauty! You have a unique option. Tomorrow in front of the council you you will be presented with an opportunity to gain your freedom back and it would seem cruel for Roma to deny your request in front of the council. We would arrange certain events in such a way that your will be asked to appear in front of the council. Then all you have to do is ask." David elaborated, letting him on to his plan.
