Chapter 92: Important Guests

Drystan’s POV

As I found myself unable to hold back the flood of my emotions, Nova held me close, whispering soothing words

from time to time, and didn’t stop rubbing gentle circles on my shoulder.

Suddenly, our solemn silence was shattered when a Pack Warrior arrived in a rush, chasing his breath with an alarmed look on his face.

I instantly straightened myself and turned my head away from him as I wiped away my tears before he could realize that I was crying.

“Alpha!” He called out with breath coming in ragged gasps.

I cleared my throat, and I sniffed my tears away as I faced him with a blank stare despite my swollen eyes giving away my tears.

“What?” I asked him coldly as I waited for the urgent matter he had to report.

“Beta Caden spoke to me through the Pack link and ordered me to deliver his news to you,” he spoke, ignoring my swollen eyes after his gaze flitted there for a moment before he

removed his gaze and lowered his head to act like he did not notice it.

“Guests from Shadowfang Pack arrived at our Pack. Beta

Caden has been trying to connect to you through the Pack link, but you blocked everyone off.” My eyes widened when I heard his words.

A proud smile appeared on his face as he delivered his good news. The Shadowfang Pack had always closed themselves in their own borders, refusing to connect with anyone. All

Powerful Packs had tried their best to make contact with them, but they were always pushed away.

Yet, the Shadowfang Pack personally came to visit our small Pack that is outcasted and on the verge of bankruptcy.

“The Shadowfang Pack? What are they doing in our Pack? What do they want?” Nova asked before I could say a word.

Nova has no idea that I wrote a letter and addressed it to the Shadowfang Pack. I didn’t expect that they would personally travel to our Pack instead of just returning our letter.

“Alpha! I’ve been trying to contact you. Why did you block us out?!” Beta Caden hissed as soon as I lifted up the barrier that was blocking him from contacting me through the Pack link.

“Envoys from the Shadowfang Pack are here, and they are demanding to see you and Astrid. I do not know what to say to them!” Beta Caden added in an alarmed voice.

Earlier, I purposefully disconnected myself from the Pack link to be left alone in my own thoughts. I’ve never done that before. so that the members of my Pack could easily contact me in times of emergency.

This is the first time that I did that, not expecting that an emergency will happen coincidentally.

I paused as I stared intently at the emergency room. The Doctor said that there was no hope, Astrid was dying, and that all we could do was wait until her body gave up.

However, the Shadowfang Pack is advanced in medicine and

even technology. They have all kinds of cures for all kinds of rare and strange diseases. For sure, with their help, we could still save Astrid’s life.

There’s still a way to save her.

“Alpha?” The Pack Warrior stood up straight when he noticed me looking at him.

“Call the others,” I commanded him. “We are going to leave now.”

The Pack Warrior instantly bowed his head and left to do his tasks without asking any questions, leaving me and Nova on

our own.

“How about Astrid?” Nova asked me as soon as the Pack Warrior was gone. “I thought she was in critical danger. Is it safe to make her travel right after her operation?”

“Don’t worry about that; the doctor will clear her,” I answered without sparing her a glance as I walked out of the waiting room urgently.

“Alpha, you should come here now! These guests are from the Shadowfang Pack, I do not know what to say to them!” Beta Caden’s voice rang inside my head as I walked through the hospital’s hallways.

“Tell the guests that they don’t have to wait for us there. We are going to travel directly to the Shadowfang Pack,” I replied firmly.

“What?!” Beta Caden blurted out, sending a wave of pain in my head because of his loud voice. “The Shadowfang Pack never allowed any outsiders in their Pack. What makes you think they will let you in?”

Just tell the guests and tell me what they say,” I gave a flippant answer.

“Are you crazy?!” Beta Caden yelled at me once again.

He thinks I’m being overly confident just because the Shadowfang Pack dared to visit our Pack.

However, it was more than that.

Astrid holds an heirloom bracelet owned by the Alpha bloodline of the Shadowfang Pack. Whether the bracelet was stolen or not, this is clearly so important for the Shadowfang Pack that they brought envoys to our Pack, risking their reputation of being independent.

“Just do as I say! I yelled back at him. Tell them that Astrid is dying and there’s nothing that the Doctor can do. Her only hope lies on the Shadowfang Pack if they are willing to help her.”

“Fine,” Beta Caden replied in defeat before disconnecting.

After a while, he connected to the Pack link again. “The guests agreed. You can go directly to their Pack and take Astrid. They promised that they would help Astrid and keep her alive.”

I feel bad for Nova. She has to push her feelinsg aside especially since Astrid is in danger and is the one in need the most
