The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 104

Dylan's POV

I sat on the couch and chewed on a little stick as I waited for the arrival of my men. They had been gone for a while and the day of their return had come.

Yet, there was no sign of them anywhere. I didn't want them to get into the Pack without me knowing that they had arrived and so I left my room so early in the morning and sat on the couch in the sitting room, with a few guards by my side, as usual, anxiously waiting for them to return.

As I turned around and saw the guards, a feeling of happiness sprang up within me. "I need some water immediately," I said to them as one of them quickly left to get it.

In about two to three minutes, he was back with a glass of water in hand and after handing it over to me, I looked at it for some time and decided not to drink it, since I wasn't thirsty anyway.

"Here," I said to him, handing the glass of water over to him as he looked so shocked."You can have it. Drink it "

"Thank you," he said, taking the glass of water from me. He stared at me for a bit before drinking the water.

"Good," I said, with a smile on my face. He must have thought that I probably didn't trust him or something like that. How wrong he was!

I was only trying to test out my powers with him. Although I was in the Pack of the rogues, I was treated like a king. I felt like a King.

At some point, I began to think about staying there since I had all the privileges that I craved back in my Pack.

A rogue Pack was still a rogue Pack. Anything could happen at any time, especially when one would least expect it. They were called Rogues for a reason. Besides, through them, I had gotten some experience on how I was to rule a Pack and I couldn't wait to do it in my Pack, where I truly belonged.

"Has anyone seen Johnny?" I asked the guards but they all shook their heads.

I began to wonder if anything had gone wrong somehow or if they were caught. "What if they were right about the security?" I asked myself, trying not to concede to the thoughts in my head but it was so hard. I couldn't afford to lose two of my trusted men, especially Johnny, who wasn't only an asset but my best friend.

"He's going to be so…"

I heard some voices down the corridor, very close to the parlour and I sat up in anticipation. It was Johnny's voice. I was so sure about it.

The door opened and Johnny and the spy walked in full of smiles and I finally got myself to calm down a bit. From the look on their faces too, it seemed to me that their journey was either partly or fully successful. I just had to hear what they had to say.

"We have some great news for you, Dylan," said Johnny as they walked to where I sat.

"Can I sit?" Asked Danny, the spy and I nodded.

He and Johnny sat beside me as Danny proceeded to tell me what happened in the Silver Moon Pack.

"So I got through to Sophia through the help of one of the guards in the building," he began. "Ivan is his name. He let me get into the dungeon when no one was watching. He did give me a warrior's attire, just in case and I put it on."

"What about Sophia?" I asked. "How did she react when you told her that I sent you?"

"Well, she looked a bit stunned at first and I became concerned if she knew who you were but she claimed that she knew and so I went on to tell her everything you told me concerning the plan to break her out of the cell and bring her here to you so that we can continue our plans to strike Bane when he'd least expect."
