Chapter 67 Hence the betrayal
Chapter Sixty-Seven – Hence The Betrayal.
His plan was to save the male warriors and sacrifice the female warriors. The pack could still survive.
The male warriors had their mates, hidden away from the Sparks Moon Pack, along with their pups. They were the last hope for the pack.
All the female warriors weren’t competent enough, except the archers who actually had some skills but they still weren’t worthy.
Many females wanted ranks to intimidate omegas. Most of them were former omegas who slept with Johnson and won his favor.
The ranks became useless as you become a warrior based on how good you are on bed. He wanted that all gone, hence his betrayal.
He caught the cloth thrown to him by the man on white robe, who had fallen with him. He wiped his injury.
“Thanks Jarma, but those archers would be killed by Garcia.”
He knew he had underestimated her. She was an Alpha’s child but he’d assumed since she was busy modeling, she won’t have what it takes.
It was good Jarma saved him, or they were chances his ass would have been handed to him.
Jarma, flashing his white teeth. “That’s payback for stealing Garcia’s timetable and putting all those lives at risk. Stephanie had trusted me.”
The lead warrior smirked. That wasn’t his business. He didn’t care about any promise to Stephanie. That was only Jarma’s problem.
He washed his hands in the stream and wiped it off on the cloth and explained.
“Johnson needed to blow steam after Reina beat up Cherry. I needed him to blow it off or else he’d take it on me.”
Jarma rolled his eyes. He took off his white robe and threw it on the lead warrior to wear. His clothes were wet. “But the plan failed.”
“Yes but Nathan reported that Stephanie was shot. Johnson was contended with that. It seems Nathan knew what he was doing to report that.”
The lead warrior threw out the knives in his shoes. Five fell out. He washed his shoes in the stream.
Jarma stooped low to him, and waited to make eye contact with him. “Leo, I need you to lie low for now.”
The warrior looked up at the man, he shook his head. “Don’t start. Same thing you said but then met up with Nathan, Stephanie and then Reina.”
Jarma chuckled, rubbing his temples. “I needed them to know I’m not a threat. Also, Reina was almost killed by your Cherry.”
“My Cherry?!” Leo, the lead warrior shouted, pointing himself questioningly.
Jarma nodded. “I’m sorry. Not your Cherry. But the Cherry from your pack. I forgot you hate her a lot.”
Leo scoffed. Why wouldn’t he hate her? Like Reina, while he was an Omega, she tormented him. She never respected his new rank either.
At times he wanted to slice her up but he knew he wouldn’t get away with it and his twin brother would be punished.
But then the Alpha gave him strength to betray him, by killing his twin brother. Now, nothing held him back from killing them. Only a matter of time and precision.
“I really wanted to kill Garcia today.” Leo confessed. He was dressed in the white robe, readying to leave. “You could have just let me.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Jarma scoffed. “You had good chances of being killed. So let’s say my love for you, saved you.” Leo rolled his eyes.
“Also,” Jarma frowned. “Garcia is no longer Johnson’s mate. Don’t hate her cos of him, she may be the only one who could weaken him.”
The sound of a motorcycle came to their ears. Jarma nodded at Leo and he ran off before anyone could see him.
Jarma bent low to check who it was. He saw a young lady on a motorcycle, and she wore the uniform of the Pure Silver Warriors only with a different badge, a higher badge.
“She must be Alpha Luciana’s lead warrior.” He smirked. He brought out a powder and poured it in his hands, holding his breath.
He jumped down, sending a knife to the lady’s motorcycle, making her crash. Before she got up, he blew the powder on her and she fainted.
“Okay, Alpha Luciana. Let’s see if you’d meet me now I have your pretty warrior.” He smirked, gazing down at the lead warrior.

Stephanie fell on the couch bed, grabbing the TV remote. She peeked at her father on the chair and found him asleep.
She switched the channel and then noticed him move. She rolled her eyes. “You only move when I switch channels, don’t you?” she hid the remote.
Her father sighed, and leaned his head on the chair. “It’s a Father’s talent. How are you holding up? Where’s your boyfriend?”
Stephanie ignored the last question. “I’m doing well, dad. The injury is healing fast, it isn’t big. At worst, I’d get a surgery.”
She didn’t know that falling on marble tiles could create a hole in her head. The week wasn’t her week at all. Also the bomber wasn’t saying who sent him, even if she had her suspicions.
Lacy rushed to her with her phone, “Ashley called. She’s no longer saved Assistant Ashley so I guess you’re friends now?”
Stephanie smirked. Ashley had changed the name herself when she saw it and said she wanted them to be friends not just colleagues.
“Yeah, I made friends there.” She reminisced about her time there but quickly brushed it off.
She should enjoy her two weeks holiday to the fullest, she’d been avoiding it for long.
“Hey, Ash! You called? Is it for the wedding date?” she asked excitedly. Her father gave her a smile.
“Oh.” Stephanie’s expression dampened. “It’s okay. Things will work out. You guys are still mates and are meant for each other.”
“Hmm, Sure.” She hung up, having a worried look. “What?” Lacy took her phone from her.
“Nothing. Ashley was supposed to get married soon but some matters arose in her pack so she would be pushing it… till further notice.”
“Doesn’t sound good.” Lacy commented and left with the phone.
Stephanie concurred. It didn’t sound good at all. Wasn’t the war to go to Johnson’s packs and kill him? Alpha Luciana looked up to task.
So why were newly recruited warriors being trained for the war also, they had chances of not making it.
“Stephanie?”
She snapped her head to her father.
“Are you okay?”
She nodded. Why shouldn’t she be?
She wasn’t the one going to be destroyed by Alpha Luciana’s warriors and rage. She only hoped innocent people didn’t suffer.
“Tell me more about your boyfriend then. I met him at the hospital again but couldn’t talk much.” Her father turned fully to her.
She licked her lips. “His name is Nathan. He is twenty-four. An only son but has an elder sister. He had a dog. And he’s originally an orphan so now helps orphanages.” She recited.
Her father nodded. “Wow. He seems like a good man. How’s his business? What’s it about?”
Stephanie knew the secret would soon be out. Secret on Nathan actually being her boss. But she didn’t care.
Things were becoming really bad so she might actually leave the company. And Nathan wasn’t her actual boyfriend so there was no need to protect him.
“His company is the biggest fashion company in America. He is the youngest CEO in America and maybe the world.” She shrugged.
“Youngest CEO? Do I know his company?” Her father raised her eyebrows.
“Yes dad, he’s my boss.”
