chapter 141
“I'm not in support of this, Zane" Daniel muttered as he watched Zane get ready to go meet up with Liam.
"Well too bad, Daniel because I'm doing this" Daniel sighed at his words.
"Okay then why can't I come with you?" Zane sighed then turned around to face Daniel.
“Because even though he hates both of us, he hates you more and might actually try to kill you this time. Don't worry about me, I can handle myself" Daniel frowned.
"You saw what he did to me, Zane. I don't think you can handle him all alone" Zane scoffed. “Don’t underestimate me, Daniel. I trained you and Liam and therefore, I know all your tricks. Besides that, I'm aware he's far more stronger than me now but I'm not going there without a plan. I have only two goals, to taunt him and draw some of his blood" Daniel furrowed his eyebrows. “His blood? What do you need that for?"
“I had a talk with Anastasia earlier today and since we won't be able to defeat Liam with just mere combat skills, we need to add a little magic, don't you think? She told me we needed some of his blood to create a weapon that can kill him" Daniel's eyes widened with realization.
“That's something I would have never thought about. This is why you're the Alpha, Zane" Before Zane could reply, his phone suddenly rang and his eyes almost popped out of its socket when he saw who it was.
He hurriedly picked up the phone then pressed it against his ear.
“You bastard, I've been trying to reach your phone and..."
“Calm down, Zane. I was kidnapped too" Levi's voice came through which made Zane furrow his eyebrows.
"What? Isn't your father working with Liam?" Levi sighed.
“It's a long story which I'll tell you later. We need to meet up, we have a lot to talk about”
“How's Kiara? Is she there with you? I want to speak with her" Zane hurriedly muttered.
“She's doing okay, Zane and she told me to tell you not to worry about her. I can't give her the phone right now because Liam has his men watching over her like a hawk but just know she's okay” Zane but his lower lip.
“Can I... Can I at least see her? I just... I miss her so much" Levi was quiet on the other end for a while.
“I can't be seen talking to you so let's meet up tomorrow. I'll have my brother video call me so you can see her, okay?" Before Zane could reply, the line was cut off.
"You can relax now since they said she's doing okay" Zane shook his head.
“I can't relax. I need to see her for myself but I'm relieved that Levi is there with her" Daniel smiled “Never thought I'd see the day you'd be happy another man was protecting your woman" Zane rolled his eyes.
“Just shut your mouth” Zane reached into his draw and pulled out two daggers.
"Don't wait up for me" Zane muttered as he turned back to Daniel.
Daniel stared at him for a while then nodded.
“Good luck, Alpha”
Zane walked into the field of the school while glancing around. It was already past eight and he still hadn't seen Liam and he was getting impatient.
Just then, Zane halted in his steps as he listened to the wind with his eyes closed. Then at that moment, he turned around abruptly and grabbed Liam, who had tried sneaking up on him, by the neck before opening his eyes.
"Wow, I expected nothing less from the strongest Alpha alive" Liam uttered with a smirk. Zane slowly let go of his neck then crossed his arm.
“Were you trying to attack me from behind, Liam? Because you know you can't fight me one on one?" Liam scoffed.
"Don't flatter yourself, Zane. If I wanted to kill you just now, I would have but I want us to fight fair and square” Zane smirked.
"Okay then but first, let's talk" Liam furrowed his eyebrows.
“I have nothing to say to you, Zane. I've said it all" Zane tilted his head.
“Well I've not said anything to you yet. I know you teamed up with Levi's father just to attack us. I know you could never do it alone but you didn't even bother to know your allies real intentions before joining forces with him" Liam frowned.
"What the fuck are you talking about? Levi's father wants you dead and I want you and Daniel dead so it's a win win if you ask me" Zane nodded.
“Fair but Levi's father doesn't just want to kill me, he wants to kill all wolves and with your help, he can achieve that" Liam frowned as he thought about what Levi had told him earlier.
“I won't let him do that. After I've killed you and Liam, I'll kill him as well" Zane smiled
“Well I expected nothing else from you because you only know how to fight dirty. How do you expect to become an alpha that way, Liam?" Liam scoffed
“You play dirty all the time and now you're trying to play dirty by trying to get into my head" Zane raised an eyebrow.
“Well you can't deny that I am saying something smart Liam. This world is a scary one and if you turn your back to your enemy, you might get stabbed in the back but the real problem here is do you recognize who's your real enemy?" Liam stared at him for a while then without warning, he lunged at Zane and landed a scratch along Zane's abdomen.
Zane let out a groan as he placed his hand above his abdomen while glaring at Liam.
“I don't know what you're trying to insinuate here but I'm the strongest being in the world now, Zane. No one can stab me in the back. I'll kill anyone that tries to do that" Zane smirked as he straightened up. He could see that his words had gotten to Liam.
“You haven't changed a bit. You just became slower. Daniel, now!" Zane yelled and Liam turned around with wide eyes, trying to look for Daniel but then realization dawned on him. Daniel wasn't here! He had just been played!
Before he could react, he gasped when Zane stabbed him from behind right in the spine.
“Never turn your back to your enemy, Liam. I know this isn't going to do much but at least it will buy me some time to get away from you" Zane whispered into his ear then pushed Liam to the ground before bringing out his other dagger and slitting Liam's arm slightly then placing it into a transparent bag.
Liam watched him with furrowed eyebrows and a grimace on his face. He tried to move but the dagger on his spine had paralyzed him for the moment.
“See you on the battle ground, Liam" And with that, Zane left...
