ALPHA CYRUS - Fallen King

24. Confess

~ Next day | Location: MoonLight Pack | CYRUS P.O.V 5 PM ~

"Three thousand..four..and five. Five thousand wolves in the MoonLight Pack." Darion informed me and I nodded my head.

My eyes were fixated on the large map that was spread across the large table. It had all the borders of the other three packs and I made a note of their distances.

I lifted my pen and pointed it at the shores of Pack Luminous, lifting my eyes up to meet Mr Macy.

"Any news from Marcus?" I asked him, and he nodded, stepping forward, placing his pale hands on the edge of the table.

"Yes, he has informed that Luminous is well under control and suggests that they leave Luna Elle to it." He replied and I lowered my eyes down to the map below me.

*Do you think it's wise that she stays in power?* My wolf asked and I shrugged inwardly.

*We only needed to ensure that Luminous was safe and well. There's no point in seeking control over Luna Elle.* I shot back, my eyes now starting to ache as my wolf fought for dominance.

"Cyrus?" I heard and I shot my head up quickly to meet Mr Macy that held a look of concern on his face.

"Yeah?" I breathed out, rubbing my temples, closing my eyes for a moment before opening them again.

"Are you alright, Lad?" He asked, "I've never in my years seen eyes change in colour that drastically." He chuckled and placed a lift punch to my right upper arm.

I forced myself to chuckle with him, "Yeah, it happens sometimes. And I still don't know why." I muttered the last bit to myself.

"Any news on the witch?" I asked Mr Macy, changing the subject.

"With the intel from a couple warriors we were able to trace her down to a small village, a two day trip from us." He replied.

"Good, and the traitor at BloodMoon?" I asked.

"That, I have no clue. Our Pack is large in numbers, it could be anyone."

"That is true, but this person must be close to us. They were aware of our going's and coming's, they knew our plans and handed them to Logan."

"Are you implying that it's someone in your circle?" He asked, stepping forward.

I shook my head. I didn't believe that. It was too obvious.

"No, someone that gets around unnoticed.." I trailed, numerous thoughts in my head. "Someone like Jordyn.." I suggested.

"Or Jarrod." Darion spoke up and I twisted my head to face him.

"What did you just say?" I squinted my eyes at him.

"You said it must be someone that stays unnoticed—"

"Jarrod wasn't anywhere around us during the drama with MoonLight. He was healing from his injury. Do not ever accuse him of such a crime." I spat.

"He's just a small yute, the boy is like a son to our Alpha." Mr Macy said, trying to dissolve the obvious tension in the room.

"Apologise Alpha, I spoke out of turn." Darion replied, lowering his head.

My wolf growled in anger.

"Have you heard from BloodMoon, since the message about the intruders?" Mr Macy asked me quickly, and I turned my focuse to him.

"Yes, Tristan has informed that everything is under control. Nevaeh seems to know what she's doing." I chuckled.
