She placed her head back on my chest, and soon I heard her snoring. She was exhausted. I thought of what she said about Pamela, and I decided it was time to clip the wings of the council. They had done too much damage.
I woke up in the morning, and Zora was still sleeping.
I knew she was exhausted and overworked.
Not wanting her to fall ill, I ordered the staff to serve her breakfast in the bedroom.
I showered, got ready for the day, and headed to the dining room.
To my surprise, only Marcel and Raphael were in the dining room for breakfast.
“Zora too?” That was the first thing Raphael said, and I nodded.
“They must have overworked themselves yesterday,” Marcel said, and I agreed and sat on my seat.
I knew it would be a boring breakfast without our soon–to–be wives.
“Eloise returned to the room and passed out last night. She said she just wanted to put up her feet and fell asleep immediately.” Raphael said, and I smiled.
“Kara passed out immediately. She entered the room and pleaded with me not to wake her before passing out. I wondered if Lacy left all the work for them?” Marcel said, sounding slightly annoyed, thinking the event

“I do not think Lacy is the problem; you know how the women like to handle everything. That might have been it. I have asked the staff to serve Zora in the room. Honestly, they need to rest.” I said, and they agreed with me.
We ate breakfast in a rush, and then I broke the good news to them.
“So finally, I traced a money receiver in Gad yesterday. He slipped up and collected money using his ID instead of a secret word or number,” I said, and Marcel was surprised.
“That was a bit too easy, don’t you think? What if they are trying to divert our attention,” He said, and I shook my head.
“I thought as much until I called Noel in Gad to have her trace the guy His name is Bricks Liam. He exists, and he is, indeed, a bit shady. wanted her to arrest him, but Zora came up with a nice idea that we should trace him and investigate him and his associates before we move in to arrest him. That way, he will lead us to other people,” I said, and Marcel agreed.
“So what has Noel found out?” He asked, and I laughed.
“She saw him yesterday evening. We need to give it time, but I think it will lead us to a mole or part of Lily’s so–called organisation members here.” I said, and they agreed.
“I think Lily was why we did not catch anyone all this while. She might have been alerting them to cover their tracks,” Raphael said, thinking the same way I thought.
“I believe so too. It was smart to keep her and Sofia’s arrest a secret.” Marcel said, and I nodded.
“As for Lily, Zora thinks we can use her to our advantage,” I said, and

Marcel frowned.

“Lily has committed treason, and the punishment is death. For a lesser punishment, she will have to cooperate and help us catch some of the people. If she agrees, we will make Sofia’s arrest public and prosecute her; it will force the organisation to reach out to Lily directly. Zora said she heard Lily telling them that security would be low during the games. We could use the games to trap some of the members,” I said, and they were silent, thinking about what I had said.
“That is an excellent Idea. The girl is too selfish not to agree. Besides, I doubt she believes in their cause. I think she was just mad you refused to fuck her,” Marcel said, and we all laughed. It was a pity because I saw her as my younger sister and treated her well.
“Speaking of the games, there is a slight issue. It isn’t an issue, but it was created to be so,” I said, and they frowned.
“The council is at it again, and Pamela decided to invite the eastern alphas,” I said. Raphael banged his hand on his table angrily.
“When will those bastards stop? What is her fucking problem? She sent her daughter here once, and neither of us accepted her, and now she is trying to ruin our lives because of it?” Raphael said, livid.
“Eloise loves you, Raphael, and she hates her ex, you shouldn’t be worked up,” Marcel said, trying to calm Raphael down, and he shook his head.
“I just don’t say it, but Eloise has nightmares. She doesn’t know, but most of the time, I have to wake her in her sleep and hold her. She is traumatised to her soul. I hear many things she mumbles in her sleep, and I could not imagine anyone could be subject to that kind of treatment. Imagine what I had to deal with when she got here. She was broken. I am not worried about where her heart lies. She is pregnant. I do not want anything that would trigger her memory and cause her stress: She might think she is over the guy, but she still dreams of revenge. I do not want

her to be stressed. How dare Pamela do this?” He said, very angry.

I did not know he was dealing with all that until he voiced it out. I now understood their slow progress and the woman’s reluctance.
Cruz was a bastard, and I wondered what Casey was doing as leader of
the east.
He was supposed to strip Cruz of his rank and take his pack from him. The bastard was unfit to rule.
“They should strip that man of his rank and take his pack from him,” I said, and Raphael nodded.
“I would have moved to do that, but I do not want to cause a war with the east. Most of the land he uses and the money he spends belongs to Eloise She is an heiress. The guy is a bastard. He caused a problem with us, and when we came, he gave her to us and decided to keep her things so he and his bitch could share. Once I am married to Eloise, I will retrieve her property. He has no right to hold on to her things since they are no longer together. I will see how powerful his pack will be without her land and money. The man needs to suffer.” Raphael said, and we were silent because of the new tension in the atmosphere.
Now that Raphael put it that way, I was a bit worried. What if Casey showed up and stressed Zora out? She did not need any form of stress at the moment. Her pregnancy was still in the early stages. Pamela was a bitch.
