Promises

Chapter Twelve

THREE DAYS LATER

Ricky's P.O.V. :

            "I know this is a sensitive question but why did you agree to merge with Thunder Clan after what they did to us?" Kevin asked me as we waited in the conference room for the arrival of Thunder Clan.

            "That was like so many years back. Besides, their son has taken over the clan, not the same leaders that killed my parents..." I said in a calm voice as some of my pack members fell silent.

            "It's just not good to judge a book by its cover." I added and there were some agreeing whispers around the room.

            Look I may have the reputation to be really merciless but I'm a reasonable guy too.....

            The door of the conference room then opened and in came the escorts I sent to pick up Thunder Clan from the airport and unfamiliar faces whom I'm guessing, are Thunder Clan warriors.

            But one familiar scent hit me and made me let out a low growl... As everyone entered the room, the last person who strolled in almost made me pounce on him...

            I recognised that fucking scent...

            "Alpha Ricky, this is Alpha Travis. He's here to discuss with you regarding the problems on hunters' invasion." one of my escorts introduced.

            I balled one of my fists up as I held out a hand to Alpha Travis and he gave me a friendly smile. Genuine smile from him, but what I felt at this moment was to just rip the guy apart...

            His scent is of the stale smell that was on Megan when I first met her... Travis is Megan's ex-mate. He is the father of her children and he is the one who dumped her and broke her heart, making her leave and never informing him about her pregnancy...

            I'm not letting this bastard anywhere near my wife in case he tries to win her back.....

*~*

Travis's P.O.V. :

            What is with this guy???

            I observed from his stance and the way he gripped my hand that he doesn't like me and I have absolutely no idea why. This is the first time I'm meeting him but yet, there's something about me that he abhors.

            Yes, I used the word abhor cause' even everyone in the room can feel the hatred for me exuding out from Ricky. The atmosphere in the room was tense and I could hear everyone's heartbeat accelerating.

            "Let's have a seat and get on with the discussion shall we..." Ricky offered with a smile as he directed me and my pack to the opposite side of the long table that was empty with chairs.

            I can still tell that he's trying to be professional... Well maybe he hates me cause' of my parents killing off his parents but then again, why agree to the merge if he is still habouring so much hate for my clan?

            Well, I decided to put personal emotions aside and focused on the meeting.

            "So far this month, 5 of my warriors were found in critical condition and 3 has died from silver bullets lodged in their heart. I'm not sure what are the intentions of the hunters but it seems that they know what they're hunting for." Ricky informed the room and he then looked at me.
