Alarick's P.O.V

Commotion and panic swarmed around me.

"Make sure we have our men armed well enough to fight. out there , there is no doubt Roman will bring weapons."

"Yes sir." My gamma spoke quickly.

I received word that the rogues and their king were waiting just outside the borders.

This is a threat and there is no doubt that he is interested in war.
Although he claims he just wants to talk, his loyal subjects run along side him. He does not just want to talk. There is always a purpose behind these things.

My men have prepared for this fight. I plan to kill Roman , and his next heir as the child will be a problem once it gets older.

Killing a child or possibly an unborn baby is harsh to most people. However this doesn't bother me.

Rouge Kings have been known to take over innocent villages and even been known to threaten and destroy Kingdoms. I won't let my people perish.

I finished up quickly writing a letter to two of my neighboring allies , it basically stated that there is a very big possibility that I'll be having a war.

As I finished putting the papers in envelopes I heard knocking on my door.

"Enter." I mumbled

Emily's scent washed over me and I tensed up.

"Emily. I told you to stay in the room."

She looked down and shuffled towards me.

"I-I know. You w-were just taking too long. I got worried."

I let out a sigh and took long strides towards her.

"I need you to listen Emily. Things are going to get very bad , very fast. We are more than likely about to go to war. I didn't prepare you for a situation like this ,so I need you to be strong. You will be situated with women , children and the elderly. Michael and his mate will be waiting with you."

I heard her gasp.

"Y-Your fighting?!"

I nodded

"A good king fights alongside his people."

Golden tears filled her eyes she blinked them away , causing golden tear drops to traveled down her face.

She stood in her tippy toes and  raised her hand and placed it on my face.

"I- I don't want you to get hurt." Her bottom lip wobbled erratically.

"I'll come back home to you my girl. I promise."

I leaned down and gave her a sweet kiss. I savored the moment untill my gamma bursted through my door.

"Alpha! They have crossed the border and are getting out of control."

I nodded at the gamma, not even reprimanding him for coming in my office without permission.

I felt unbearable amounts of disrespect. Crossing a border without consent is just asking for a death wish.

"Take her to the safe room. Make sure everyone has food and water to last for a week. I already mind linked Michael, he knows where she'll be."

I kissed her one last time , whispered an , "I love you." And headed out on my way to fight.
