"What is that?" Bree's whisper-screamed at no one in particular, since she was too shocked to hear the sudden commotion.
"They are here, " Lord Bayle said, a smirk appeared at the corner of his lips and his dull eyes shone brightly in this dimly lit room."Finally, they are here!" If it was not because that he was too weak in this old body of his, Lord Bayle would jump and fist the air in thrill.
He looked like someone, who had lost his mind just because of a sudden burst of excitement.
Bree's eyebrows shot up and she found herself staring at the dragon lord behind standing the bars, not able to understand what he said, but whatever he meant didn't sound really good for her. She could clearly see that in his vicious smile.
"What do you mean by that?" Bree asked, but she heard someone calling her name, Rossie. From the sound of it, it seemed something important had happened.
"You all will be doomed now, " Lord Bayle chuckled in an eerie tone, coupled with his appearance now, he looked utterly creepy.
Therefore, Bree didn't want to stay with this old man any longer as she felt an sudden urge to be with Rossie, all of her strange curiosity toward this dragon lord disappeared completely, but before she could leave that place, Lord Bayle stopped her by saying something that she couldn't discern well.
"You know little girl, our kind can recognize one another, stay here and maybe we can figure out, who you actually are, " Lord Bayle said, he didn't laugh anymore, but tilted his head, staring at Bree with interest.
However, Bree didn't heed his offer and chose to leave that dungeon.

Torak and Jedrek looked under the weather and dark when they entered the room, where many Alphas had been waiting for them with Kace sitting as the head of the table, leading the meeting.
"We can't send our people there, " Alpha Ralph spoke in disagreement."We need more people here."
That was what Torak and Jedrek heard the moment they entered the room and it seemed half of the people in this room, didn't agree with whatever idea that Kace had thrown on to the table.
Jedrek narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly when the other Alphas greeted him and Torak, before the two of them proceeded to sit down on the chairs beside Kace's. f𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘄𝒆𝗯𝙣ovel - 🅽🅽novel
"No, actually there is a way to end this war." Kace's voice was neither loud nor strict, but it was enough to make the other Alphas and the dragon lords, Theseus and Stephan, hold back their tongues and listen to him.
Not only them, even Jedrek and Torak looked at their brother sharply. He wouldn't dare say it in front of all these people, right?
After all, it was the life of his mate that was on stake if he indeed decided to reveal what they knew about how to end this war.
Moreover, no one could say that method would succeed, though Lilac had said it that was the most necessary thing to do, but they just didn't want to believe it.
How could they stand by and watch their mates die? That idea didn't settle well with them and they didn't even want to start thinking about it.
They just don't want to.
However, Kace proved that their suspicion was right when he spoke the next words.
"We know how to end this and this is the plan that we will talk about now, " Kace said firmly, his voice laced with determination, he didn't even falter under the hard gazes that Jedrek and Torak giving to him.
Since when did his younger brother turn like this? Wasn't it him, who was always avoiding any chance to take the lead or speak directly like this? Didn't he know the consequences of his words?
"Kace!" Torak opened his mouth to prevent him from talking any further.
On the other hand, Jedrek shifted his attention to the other people inside the room before he spoke grimly."Leave us now."
Lyrus and Calleb looked at each other, as they knew the truth along with what Kace wanted to say. However, they couldn't ignore their Alpha's order.
Yet, the two of them remained standing there and didn't even move an inch, even when all the people went out of the room.
"What are you waiting for?" Torak glared at Calleb and Lyrus."Don't you hear our command to leave the room?" he narrowed his eyes.
However, Calleb sighed and looked at Kace instead, as if waiting for his approval to leave the room and this kind of gesture only irritated the Alpha further.
"Are you taking Kace's orders now?" Torak said in a deep voice, he was not in his right mind and mood at the moment, thus Calleb's defiance only piqued him.
"Torak, you know that is not what I mean, " Calleb said, he didn't know what the right thing to say or how to calm Torak down, because that was something what Raphael could do, just like he always did in the past. Therefore, the only thing that he could do now, was to tell him what was inside his head.
"Then leave the room, " Torak said through gritted teeth.
"Torak, you promised me the safety of my mate, not only my mate, there is Raphael's son also there." He could see Torak's clenched jaw tighten further."With you being like this had made things turn even worse than they already were, and if you still refuse to make a different plan, I don't think Raine and Lilac will ever forgive the two of you even if you can keep them alive."
"Shut up!" Jedrek roared. He knew what Calleb said was right, that was why he was angry because he said it out loud. It only made them feel worse. He knew Lilac wouldn't forgive him if he continued his craziness.
Jedrek realized, so did Torak...
"Alpha, I am truly apologetic." Calleb slightly bowed his head."But, if you keep doing things like this, I think you will understand my decision. Just like you, I too want to be with my mate."
