CHAPTER SEVEN - ROGUES INVASION


    Wright was inside of the gym exercising when his phone began to ring.


    “Gosh it is already past 9 am” He said as he looked at the wall clock. “And who could this caller be”


    Acting very reluctantly, he went for his phone.


    “Philip” he murmured as he saw the caller.


    “Hey man” Wright said as he picked the call.


    He wondered why Philip would be calling him this early.


    Philip is not one to call often unless he really has important news and Wright prayed that whatever this


    call was for, it should better not be what he was thinking, it should not be in any way rted to the


    Pack. Anyways, he maintained his cool and waited patiently for Philip to tell him the reason for the call


    himself.


    “Wright” Philip responded.


    From the tone of Philip’s voice, Wright could tell that he was a bit tensed and was only trying to hide it.


    Philip and Wright had grown up in Shadow Rank Pack as best of friends. In fact, if the tussle with the


    rogues had not happened, Philip would have been Wright’s beta.


    Wright’s dad, Alpha Lucas is the alpha of Shadow Rank Pack and Wright is his sessor before he left


    everything behind during the war with the rebels and moved to Edmonton where he had met Evolette


    and had further denounced his werewolf lineage.


    As a good friend, Philip had left the pack with him amidst the conflict but had soon left Edmonton for


    Regina for greener pasture. It was by the twist of fate that Philip had met Kyra in Regina while he had


    met Evolette here in Edmonton and both close friends had married the same sisters.


    When Evolette discovered Wright''s true nature, she was not receptive to same and so, just so as to


    please her, he had all these years live outside that part of him until the midnight of her burial when he


    had shifted and had ran into the wild to let out his grief for his self-acimed lost mate.


    Kyra on her part had been a little indifferent and receptive about the whole werewolf thing and was


    even ready to move back to Shadow Rank Pack with Philip just that Philip was unwilling to go back


    because of his love and solidarity for his friend and Alpha as he had always addressed Wright


    whenever they were alone.“


    My Alpha, are you there?” Philip inquired when Wright had not responded to him.“


    Gosh, this better be good” Wright spat.


    Now he was sure that Philip''s call was definitely rted to the Pack as he had feared.


    When Wright left Shadow Rank Pack, the rebels did not leave him as they were still out to get him. It


    was with the help of the allies that Wright built in Edmonton that he had been able to operate discreetly


    without getting the attention of his foes. All these years, Philip had been Wright’s number one ally and


    had been on the lookout for possible threat to his friend, Wright and had always alerted him whenever


    there was danger.


    Wright had been able to live a quiet life until just before the death of Evolette. He tries to act normal to


    Riona, but within him, he constantly fears for her safety.


    “Speak Philip, I am listening” Wright muttered.


    “Okay Wright, where is Rio?” Philip asked.


    “She is not in” Wright replied.


    “What!” Philip eximed.


    “Come on Philip. Or do you want me to pee on my pants?” Wright was already getting irritated and all


    he just wanted was for Philip to spill the bean.


    “Sorry man” Philip said.


    “Gosh” Wright spat.


    “I am so sorry, I am sorry” Philip was tense. “I don’t even know what I am thinking”

    “Rx Philip, what is the problem?” Wright asked.


    “I just got the news that some rogues from Shadow Rank are out, they are there in Edmonton since


    yester night” Philip announced.


    “What!” Wright screamed. “And howe you are just telling me of this now?”


    “I just got the news right away and I quickly called you. The first thing that came to my mind was Rio”


    Philip exined.


    “Rio” Wright stuttered. “Rio left this morning. I think she said she was going to get Sandra toe


    spend the weekend with us”


    “Shit” Philip cursed.


    “O my God, o my God. What the hell?” Wright cursed.


    “Please be cool” Philip said.


    “I am cool, man. What is the situation with the rogues at the moment, do you by chance know that?”


    Wright was curious.


    Wright is so anxious and filled with anger right now and he cannot imagine any harming to his little


    girl. He promised himself that he would spare no life in Shadow Rank if there is as little as a mosquito


    bite on Riona.


    “From my information, they don’t have her yet and happily they don’t know what she looks like just yet”


    Philip said.


    Wright interrupted him. “What do you mean they don’t know what she looks like just yet, do you n on


    showing them what she looks like?”


    “Not at all. But you and I know that if Rio has the werewolf blood in her, finding her would be as easy as


    finding you to them” Philip replied.


    Philip was right. If Riona has the blood of a werewolf which Wright prays that she does, it would take


    just little effort for the rogues to know that she is his daughter if they as much as past through the same


    path as her.


    “Damn” Wright cursed. “Let me call her immediately. She has to starting back right away”


    Wright grabbed his other phone and ced a call to Riona. He anxiously waited for it to start ringing,


    but to his dismay, he was informed that her phone was switched off.


    “Shit, shit, shit” Wright screamed. “Her phone is switched off, Philip”


    “Oh lord, that is not good” Philip muttered.


    “I am going there right away” Wright announced.


    Philip does not really like the idea of Wright going on the look-out for Rio so he tried to dissuade him. “I


    don’t know how you will do it. It is already day time and you would not be able to go in search of those


    rogues. However, some of our people are already on the lookout for them and so you would have to


    remain calm for us to get updates on the development from them”


    “Philip” Wright called.


    Philip could tell that Wright was not just calling him as a friend but as an alpha to a subject. He had


    called him with authority. His voice, though low, was firm.


    “Yes Alpha” Philip responded.


    “Do you realize that it is my daughter that is out there and you are insisting that I stay back here and do


    nothing, do you see me as a fool, a coward?” Wright thundered.


    “I am so sorry Alpha, but please understand me. That is not what I am implying. Our men are already


    on the look-out” Philip replied.


    “And these men of yours, do they know where my Rio is?” Wright asked.


    Philip is a loyal friend to Wright and Wright has never taken this fact for granted, not even for once. But


    this time, he begs to disagree with him. He also appreciates and had never underestimated the efforts


    of his werewolf allies but now that it has to do with his daughter, he would have to do this his way. He


    had been careless enough to allow his wife to pass away under his watch, but he would never allow the


    same thing to happen with Riona.


    “No Alpha, they do not” Philip responded.


    “Thanks Philip, but you would agree with me that no one would watch over my girl better than me”


    Wright said.


    “Alpha” Philip called out.


    “Please let’s not go over this Philip, I would go out there myself and bring my girl back home” Wright


    announced.


    “You can’t go out there yourself Alpha, what if… what if, there are consequences” Philip whimpered.


    “Damn those f**king consequences man. I would go out for my girl and I don’t care what happens”


    Wright said and immediately hung up.


    Filled with anger and pains, he let out a very loud growl that shook the equipment in the gym. He


    looked around the room and growled one more time before shifting to his wolf and immediately ran out.
