“He is the one who had the bracelet. I hope she was able to recover it from him. Nasty piece of work. I never saw him, but heard him over the microphone. Sir Roderick called him Griff, but didn’t realize he was one of them.” Angus returned to his natural form and the twins gawked in amazement.
Silas was happy he wasn’t the only one impressed. “We were trying to determine what the end game is for this group. They do not want to rule the world, not overtly anyway. From what Angus says, they already own a lot of politicians around the world and their fingers are deep into the global economy. In relation to that, my pack is small potatoes,” Silas said using one of his mate’s quirky sayings.
Tyrone sat down in the chair in front of Angus. Tyrese continued to stand. “That’s true, but here’s the difference. You have an organized force that you command at a moment’s notice. If there was a real threat to the United States, there is a real threat to the pack. No outside force would ever be allowed to enter the US and survive. Our pack would never allow it. Just because the government has turned a blind eye to our existence does not mean they aren’t happy to know you would never allow the annihilation of your nation.”
“Which exists inside of their nation, the US. So if an enemy had any hopes of conquering the US in any shape they would need to be prepared to meet two Presidents. I use that term to make a point,” Tyrese said when Silas’ brow rose. “One President the world knows and sees, rules the human race in this country. The other is unknown and consequently more deadly. Because you can call every wolf in this country, bitches and pups included, your army is larger. With the new technology, your force will be harder to destroy.”
Silas thought over everything the twins said. He had not thought along those lines, but as an offensive measure it made sense. And was on point because his people lived everywhere, not just on pack lands. So if there was an attack from an outside enemy he would get involved to save his pack.
“That is an interesting observation. I had not thought of it in those terms,” Angus said sitting up. “Here is another possible reason. These are old men who are bored. Chances are they have overcome every challenge presented and are looking for bigger game. Kind of like that movie where the billionaire brothers made a bet for one dollar that they could make a beggar a millionaire…”
“Trading places?” Tyrese said.
Angus shrugged. “I do not remember the name of the movie only that a friend brought it to teach the pups about greed. It is a movie, but the lessons are real. There are those who do things for no real reason or deep purpose. These men could be like that.”
Silas nodded. Who knew why this group operated? Or if they had a purpose. In the end, none of that mattered. They could no longer operate in his country.
“We will be landing in twenty minutes. Please return to your seats and put on your safety belts,” the pilot said over the speaker.
Tyrone stood. He and Tyrese returned to their seats. Silas continued to think over his options. He had a lot of data to go over and teams to put together. He watched Brix and Leon come from the back, take their seats and buckle up.
“I have the tape of the discussion you had with Brix, Sir,” Leon said. “There is also a disc of everything he learned about the Liege Lords. Over the years he has composed reports and turned them into his Alpha. We will send those to Jacques when we land and have access to a computer.”
“Thank you, Leon, Brix. That is most helpful,” Silas said, feeling better about this mission.
“I would ask your permission to travel with you to your compound. I would like to stay in the states and offer my services to assist in destroying the Liege,” Angus said surprising Silas.
“I do not trust you.”
“I would pledge my loyalty to you
.”
Silas stared at the man. That was a big step and one that could not be broken. Silas would literally hold Angus’ life in his hands. “
Why
?”
“They kicked you out?”
Angus frowned. “
No, they did not. I left. I can return at any time and pledge fealty to the new Alpha.”
“I will think about it and let you know before we take off. I am hesitant to bring anyone new into my compound because my mate and pups live in my den. You have said I cannot kill you and that leaves me wondering what my options would be to protect my…family.
”
Angus’ eyes widened. “
You have more pups? Other than the twins? How blessed you are
.”
Thinking of his pups, Silas grinned. “
I am blessed indeed. They are a rambunctious handful, but I would not change anything about them.”
He glanced at Angus and could tell he was truly excited on his behalf. “
I have two boys, Adam and David.
”
“Good solid, strong names. No doubt showing traits of leadership already
,” Angus said with genuine interest.
“Yes…yes they are. Renee and Jackie are my princesses, although they are just as tough as the boys. My genes run strong in all of them, although the boys have eyes the same color as my sweet bitch.
”
“You are doubly blessed my brother. The Goddess has smiled upon you twofold. May they live a fruitful life full of love and laughter
.”
Warmth filled Silas at the old blessing. “
Where were you when the Battle of Waterloo was fought
?” Silas asked. It had been decades since he had conversed with someone who had seen some of the same things or lived through the changes of times that he had. It was refreshing to listen as Angus’ replied while the plane declined to land on the private airstrip.
Chapter 19
“Sweet Bitch.”
“Go away, Silas, I am so
…” she yawned. “
I’m too tired to talk to you
.”
He chuckled. His deep voice flowed over her skin like warmed honey. She shivered. “
I will talk, you listen.”
She stood and walked into their bedroom. “
Umhmm. Okay
.” Without turning on the lights she zeroed in on the bed and fell across it, inhaling his latent scent. “Mmmm,” she murmured as she pulled his pillow close and curled around it.
“Laying down.”
“Missing me?”
“Yes.”
“I miss you too. Asia is on her way to the compound; you can release her and get some rest. If she needs you, she will call.”
“No, she won’t. She is as stubborn as the boys
.”
Silas chuckled and the sound rubbed against her skin. Goose bumps exploded across her arms. “
You are right
.”
“She had a long day, the sun is coming up and none of us got much sleep. When will you get home?
”
“I am home
.”
She shot up in the bed and looked around. “
Where? I don’t see you
.” She fell backwards missing him more now that he was here.
“In the lab below, installing Angus in Asia’s old room. She has taken a room in your old wing near Tyrese. Then I will drop off these disks to Jacques. There is a lot of information to weed through over the next few weeks. I am anxious to hear first-hand from Asia about this group. I think we may soon be on the offense against them, instead of defense. That is exciting
.”
“Okay, when you are done, wake me up, we need to talk about some things that happened here.
” She yawned.
“Okay sweet bitch. I will see you in a few minutes
.”
An hour later the bed dipped and warm hands caressed her back. Her body shivered at the contact. After he told her he was in the compound she had been unable to sleep, instead she had been watching the clock, waiting.
“Baby…”
She rolled over and stared at him. “What did you call me?”
He laughed. “Baby. What’s wrong with that? It is a sexy name humans call their mates.”
She snorted missing his normal endearment. “Yeah, when they cannot remember the woman’s name.”
“Ah…I see.” He pulled her close. The warmth of his skin chased away the goosebumps that had risen from the sound of his voice. Her eyelids drifted close. “I missed my bitch.” He pressed a kiss against her forehead, her nipples hardened as if there were a magical connection between the two.
“I love you, Jasmine. You are my sun. I take you with me to keep me warm and grounded wherever I am.” He kissed he closed eyelids and each cheek. Her greedy pussy throbbed in preparation for his taking.
“Love you, too, baby,” she whispered.
He slapped her ass lightly. “Say my name.”
“I love you, big daddy.” She grinned.
He laughed harder and pulled her tight. “You are my joy and my delight. I thank the Goddess for your love and your care.”
She smiled. He was in a rare mood tonight. “Love you, Silas. You brought me something?” She looked up at him with a sly grin as her hand rested between his muscular thighs.
“Everything I have is yours…baby. Whatever you need I will provide.” He covered her hand and pressed it against his thickening rod. “This belongs to you, anytime, anyplace.”
