Chapter 115


    1151 Deserve My Axund Of Fimah


    Luke


    My father hand a solenn expression on his face, and I felt the pressure he exuded. It did not aftert me,


    but I knew Tia was barely fairing


    “You need to calm down, father,” I said and looked at where Tia sat on the couch, looking Ufortable


    and bothered My father took in a few breaths and tried to rx a bit. Noticing he was struggling with his


    temper. I quickly came up with a suggestion “Why don’t we head back home, and then we can discuss


    how to move forward there,” I said, and he looked at Tia


    “I want Caleb, Kirk and Tia there We need all the wisdom we can get “My father said, and Tia looked at


    him, eyes wide and surprised she could not believe he finally invited her to participate in a military


    discussion I knew she was happy about it I could feel it


    “It is time to finish this bastard” My father said through grilled teeth Truth be told, he had been the target


    all along the bastard had the effrontery to im my father stole from him Meanwhile, he was the thiel,


    stealing people, money and lives We all had a pound of flesh to take from him


    “We will meet you at home, father,” I said, and he nodded and walked away


    I linked Kirk to meet us at the mansion for the meeting


    “What about Mike,” he linked me back.


    “De Mike has a personal issue he is sorting out, and I have granted him indefinite leave,” I Said to Kirk,


    and he was quiet


    “Shall we?” I asked Tia, who was still beaming with joy. I took her hand to help her get up, not like she


    needed my help, but it was my way of caring for her. Tia was still beaming with joy


    “It is just a meeting, Tja, 1 suill won’t let you fight if ites down to it,” I said so she would know where I


    stood. Her smile dropped a bit, and I decided to remind her what happened thest time she shifted to


    fight


    “Unless you want to go through what you went throughst time,” I said, and she shook her head quickly.


    I learned it was a painful experience, and I was mad at her for putting her body through that kind of


    stress. Shilung while pregnant, especially when a woman starts showing, is prohibited. My wife had to


    damn the consequences and go ahead. I could not me her either, my father needed the help.


    “I need you to promise you won’t get in a fight no matter what, Tia I need you to promise me. “I said, and


    she reluctantly nodded. She did not speak the words.


    “If your life is in danger, Luke, I will damn the consequences,” she said honestly, I knew it would be unfair


    to force her to make such a promise when I knew is the roles were reversed, I would do the same. I just


    have to hope the need will not arise.


    “Where are we going?” She asked me, and I sighed. I wanted to take her out, but my father had


    disrupted my ns with his meeting. “Home. We do not want to keep Alpha Aesop waiting,” I said, trying


    to mimic my father’s


    countenance, and Tia giggled sweetly. It warmed my heart. She always looks more beautiful when she


    smiles. I hoped I could keep a smile on her face every day for the rest of our lives.


    We arrived at the mansion with Kirk in tow. Entering the mansion, I learned that Caleb was already


    around. My father and Caleb were waiting for us in the office. I grumbled a bit because I wanted to take a


    shower and maybe make love to my wife before the meeting. But now we had to just get straight to it. I


    walked into the office, and Caleb was sitting on the couch minding his business while my father wasUpstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    pacing about the ce. He had somehow calmed down. I did not bother to ask him how he managed to


    dissipate the rage so quickly. “Are we all here?” he asked me and motioned me to sit at the desk. It was


    a way of stating that I was still in charge. “Kirk is behind us,” I said, and he sighed. Very well then.” he


    said, and just then, Kirk walked in. He looked excited. I have never seen anyone who loved his job as


    much as Kirk did.


    Tia sat on the couch beside Caleb, and Kirk joined them. They looked like they did when they were at the


    academy hanging around.


    Once everyone was settled, my father cleared his throat to speak, and Stacy walked into my office.


    We were all surprised at her. Her eyes were puffy, which showed she had been crying. I did not need to


    guess why. Monica was locked away.


    “You can’t have a meeting about dealing with Regan without me,” She said with determination in her


    eyes.


    “Go to bed, Stacy,” My father said to her with a dismissive tone and then she shook her head and did


    something unexpected. She took off her blouse and showed us her back. It was covered with silver


    scars. I looked away immediately, and Tia gasped.


    “You do not know what life has been like with that man. I never said a word because I believed he was


    my problem. I thought I was the only one he was troubling. I did not know he was Luis Moon, the one


    who killed your wife, or was trying to kill Tia and Luke. I did not know he was the one troubling this family.


    I thought they were two different people. But now that I know the truth, I want to help.” She said and


    wiped away her tears.


    “I am not just a tool, Aesop. My value does not begin and end in the bedroom. All my life, I was told that


    sex was all I was good for; my mother told me that, Regan told me that, and you


    told me that. But I know I am more than a hole to give release to a person, a woman, and I have my


    values. I might not be a trained fighter like Tia or an academic, but I have the zeal to live and survive.


    That bastard took everything from me. My dignity, my life, my daughter, my peace, my joy and my


    husband. He took it all without cause and without remorse. I want to pay him back in his coin. I want to


    strip him bare as he did to my family and me. I want to ridicule him and take everything from him. I want


    to watch him suffer,” she said, wearing her blouse. Adjusting herself, she looked at my father. 1 “I do not


    care if it is thatst thing I do. I really don’t have anything to live for anymore. My parents are close to the


    grave, and my daughter might never see the light of day again. My son does not need me, and my


    husband has left me. The least I can do is take Regan down for everything he made me do and lose.”


    she said, and I felt a sharp pain in my heart.


    I could not believe my father was verbally abusive to her. No wonder she was always bitter andshed


    out at everyone. It was her outlet. She dared notsh out at him, so she picked on me,


    the staff and sometimes Caleb. It was her way of dealing with her situation. I looked at my father, and he


    was ashamed of himself.


    “How can you tell the woman you im to love that sex is all she is good for?” I linked my father, and he


    could not meet my eyes. He was sorry. He might have said those words out of anger, but he was still


    wrong. It cut deep and messed her mind up. It destroyed her self esteem. He was wrong.


    My father stood up and walked to where Stacy stood. She looked terrified, and I noticed she was shaking


    She has always been afraid of my father, but I know that he will nevery a finger on her, but sometimes


    words hurt more than the physically inflicted pains.


    He pulled her close and hugged her tightly. She was still shaking while he held her with her head against


    his chest.


    “I am sorry, Stacy. I never meant it that way. I was angry. I did not know it would cut that deep, “He said


    to her, and she wrapped her arms around him and sobbed gently.


    “I am sorry I lied to you. I was scared,” she confessed, which we all already knew by now. The only


    reason Stacy did not tell a soul was out of fear. Regan had that effect. I wondered why Lisa would think


    he would love her. She was just as delusional as he was.


    My father led Stacy to where he was sitting and made her sit beside him. Seeing them was beautiful, and


    I caught Tia wiping away tears from her face. It was about time they reconciled. So far, my mother and


    Stacy were victims of Regan, Stacy was only lucky she survived.


    I cleared my throat to snap people back. My father and Stacy will deal with their issues when they are


    alone.


    “How do we get this bastard?” I said aloud because I was out of ideas, and Regan had refused toe


    out of the shadows.


    “We thought Tetra would force a form of response from him, but he is still somehow hiding in the


    shadows. We learned he went to intercept a vessel with ammunitions meant for Santa Braee. How long


    would we keep ying hide and seek with this bastard?


    Stacy raised her hand as if she were in a ssroom, and I almostughed. It was clear my father never


    allowed her to get involved with pack affairs. I nodded at her, and she smiled at


    1.


    “Thank you, Alpha Luke. ” she started and cleared her throat.


    “Regan is a coward. I do not know about now, but he avoids confrontations. He likes to lurk in the


    shadows, deceiving and manipting people to do his bidding but he never gets involved directly.” She


    said, and I paid attention.


    “He is also a very arrogant man. He will surface if you have a way of calling his bluff publicly He always


    does, but he might surface with a lot of might, so you also have to be ready to withstand his might before


    publicly calling his bluff.” she said, and I really appreciated her insight. She knew Regan more than us,


    and if what she was saying was true, we would need to prepare our military before considering how to


    humiliate or dare him publicly


    “How is the state of the Military Kirk?” I asked, and he leaned forward to speak I could tell he was yet to


    shake off the shock of seeing Stacy topless. The woman was still a beauty


    “Nol good, Alpha We have a lot of people taking the neutral stance right now. Neither are for or against


    But we still have the loyalty of Neev and Bravadome. You own Woodw city and


    Eastwood. I guess after Tetra, they realised it will not be an easy win for Luis or Regan,” he said,


    sounding confused about what to call him.


    “His real name is Tom Regan Adhit,” Stacy said, and Kirk nodded.


    “We will still refer to him as Luis Moon to outsiders. We do not want him to know his game is up.” Tia


    chipped in, and Caleb giggled.


    “Let us leave him thinking his identity is hidden. I can’t wait to see the look on the face of the bastard


    when he finds out that we know everything.” Caleb said and still giggled.


    “Kirk, I will need you to prepare the military with arms and station them ready for defence. Divide the


    force into three. I will lead one, my father will lead the other, and Caleb will lead thest one.” I


    instructed, and he nodded


    “That is good, but I am tired of the bloodshed. The truth is the bastard will keep covering himself with


    others. We must challenge him in a one-on-one fight wolf style with everything to lose on both sides. We


    need to condemn wasting innocent lives and challenge him in one-on -onebat. If we win, we take it


    all; if he wins, he takes it all. It will be a fifty-fifty-stake fight. Let us end him once and for all,” Caleb


    suggested, and it was the best yet the riskiest idea. If Regan agrees, what are the odds that he will


    actually fight fair?
