Chapter 272
“You have never punished a human for simply existing, you keep both species more segregated than any other pack does. Now, I’ll be the first to admit, you aren’t exactly promoting complete equality, but you are expressing freedom…” His eyebrows raised in contemplation and an impressed spark shot across his green orbs. He’d taken the bait, I could practically sex him dangling from the hook my words had thrown at him. “If his grace were to see this pack fo lly what it was, you would be at risk anyway, whether we closed the border or not, you may not be planning for the upcoming fight against the monarchy, but you are already rebelling, in your own rebellions
rights. If you truly wish to ignore t intentions then honestly your life won’t change much at all.”
“Hmm, you do have a way with words, I can see why the rebellion put its trust in you, but you can’t tell me that our lives won’t change in the slightest. When the king eventually comes for you, and make no
mistake that he will come, he will attack anything in its path, including my pack.” I didn’t doubt that, the king had a temper unlike anything I had ever known, and apparently I grew up in an unnecessarily violent district, still I had one shot left at making this alpha understand how bad the world was outside of this pack. As like me, there were many people both human and lycan that knew nothing about the
rest of the world.
My district was volatile and aggressive, I naturally assumed every other district was the same, however this one very much took a pacifistic approach, not to mention the safe haven which was actually one of,
if not the most inclusive area in the world. The more I traveled and learnt about the wolves, the less I
saddled them all with the same notion.
“From what I can tell you and your pack are already scared. You actively hide every detail of your segregation whenever you have an official visitor, don’t you?” His silence spoke more volume than any words would have. “The punishment stage is stripped bare of any ornamental display and made to look used and frightening, so that you can conceal the true pacifistic nature of your district. From what I have seen I think You all just want a quiet life, you can’t be bothered fighting in a war, because the way you have been living has been working for you and the human district.”
“If you know all that from being in my district for an hour, then you should already know my answer
regarding the rebellion.” He seemed to have this idea that I was in fact here to sway him over to join the fight, when actually I just wanted support in the borders closing.
“I’m not asking you to fight with us against the king, alpha, I’m simply telling you the border is closed. What you do with that information is up to you.” I sighed before turning round and heading towards the door, it was only mid afternoon and already I was exhausted. Even after my amazing nights sleep.
“Your grace?!” His sudden address of me caused surprise to shoot through my body, I quickly masked. my face of any emotion before turning around and seeing nothing but a crumpling resolve on his own features. “If we were to aid you in the inevitable battle, and the king was defeated, what would you bring about to change the world?” Huh? No one had explicitly asked me this before, so I hadn’t at all thought about my answer.
