The King's mate

Betrayal

David's POV

I traveled from bar to bar talking to rogues and some whores I slept with, might as well have fun while I am on my mission to find the old rogue King, but so far I have had no luck finding his hideout. I was starting to think my mission is impossible. The bars where the rogues hang out are filthy and I am disgusted at how they live, but I have to do what I have to do. The rogues do not normally ask questions and hardly look at other wolves that hang out in the bars as long as you do not mess with them or one of their mates, they leave you alone. I was sitting in a bar one-night drinking whiskey when a dirty-looking bunch of rogues walked in. Although they are dirty they did not look as dirty and disgusting as the rest of the rogues. I do not look up as I do not want any trouble. The rogues have their own way of living and one does not intervene with their fights or their drinking and partying. They went and sit at a table in the corner mostly keeping to themselves and not mixing with the rest of the bar. I move a little closer to them to hear what they are talking about as they looked and acted differently from the rest of the rogues almost like they think they are better. The rogues in the bar were getting drunk and now and then a fight would break out. "I hate hanging out in these places," one of the rogues in the group said. "I know Sam but you know the king wants us to recruit more rogues, if we do not get at least ten more good fighters tonight he will be mad." They look at the fights in the bar and every time a rogue wins a good fight one of them will get up and go talk to the rogue, some of the rogues joined them at the table and was now drinking with them.

I need to follow them when they leave at a safe distance and see where they are going. It will be difficult and I know I need to be careful, I want to meet the King of Rogues and not die before I could complete my mission. It was getting late and the group of rogues at the table have almost doubled in size. "Time to go home. We had a very productive night the King will be pleased" I hear the one called Sam says. They got up left money on the table and walk out I do the same and start following them at a distance. I know they will not be able to smell me as they had a lot of new wolves with them and they all had a little too much to drink anyway. I keep following them until I saw them coming to the edge of a forest and I saw them talking with some other rogues that came running when they went into the forest. I stand at a distance so the guards will not detect me, I knew I found the King's hideout. I decided to come back the next morning as I was feeling the effect of the alcohol. I turn around and ran back to the old motel I was staying in.

The next morning I was up early, I took a shower to wash the smell of the w***e that was with me the night of my body and I get dressed. Then I started running to the King of Rogues' hideout. As I entered his land I was surrounded by wolves. "What do you want and why are you on our land?" "I want to talk to your king, the real king of werewolves." "Hahaha, and what makes you think he will want to talk to you. You look like a spoiled little brat that can not fight" I was getting angry at these reeking rogues that thought they were better than me an Alpha, but I kept my composure as I need to see the King of Rogues, my life depends on it. "Tell him the future Queen of werewolves are my half-sister and I can help him to destroy her and the king" They looked me up and down "Why would you want to destroy your own sister?" they were skeptical I could see it in their eyes. "Half-sister" I growl "I hate her and want her dead" They jumped at me and held me to the ground. "The king wants her alive and for himself and you want her dead, you want our future Queen dead?" Damn, I was not counting on that so even if she gets caught by the King of Rogues she can still destroy me. I will need to convince the King to forget about making her his Queen and I have to think fast.  "I only want her dead because as long as she is alive she can and will help the current King of werewolves, she will never help your king she will be his weakness and destroy him from the inside while helping her real mate. I know her she will never betray her real mate and her king." I said proudly of myself for thinking so fast. I need to let the King of rogues not want her alive. She needs to die and she needs to die fast before she can reach the Kingdom and join her mate because together they become unbeatable as the legend goes about the unstoppable King and Queen two special wolves that are born every 1000 years or so, or that was born when the world is in grave danger. They will become so powerful that they could keep peace in the werewolf world, until the day they die and that their legacy will live on through their pups that will always keep peace and harmony until it is time for them to return again. I do not really care about this so-called legend but I do care about my own skin and my future, I do not want to die young. I can see the rogue mind link with someone and I think it must be with Maximus himself.  "Come with me, keep your eyes down and bow when you speak with the real king" I walked with them to an old rundown castle in the middle of the forest. Real King, I laugh in my mind even my house at home looks better than this rundown "castle" of the "real king".

We walk in and I look down and bow as I was ordered but in my heart, I was not happy being treated like a mere pheasant. "Look at me boy" the king ordered me and I stood up from my bowing position look up at the old man sitting on a made shift thrown, I smirk inside so much for the strong "real king" he is but an old wolf. "So you are the brother of the Queen" "Half-brother" I correct him. He growls at me and I start feeling a bit scared he might be old but he is stronger than my weak old man was, I can feel his power, and all of a sudden I am not so confident anymore. "What are you doing here?" "I am here to offer my help and surrender my pack and my ground to you your Highness"

"Why?"

"Because I believe you are indeed the real king" I knew how to suck up to someone. "I know my half-sister, your Highness, she will never betray her mate and the only way to win this war will be to kill her"

He orders all the other wolves to leave us alone so we can talk.

"Hmm I wanted her for myself as my mate she is strong, but I know the legend and you might be right she will not betray him and might become my weakness, but if we kill her mate will become weaker and I will win him as they were already bonded since the day she shifted the first time"

"Yes your Highness she will destroy your war effort from within if she is not killed"

"You show more wisdom than the fools I had to put up with the last few years. So what do you want in return for helping with my war effort?"

"I want to become your second in command, I want to help you take your throne back and I want to be your right-hand man when we take the thrown"

"You will first have to prove your loyalty to me"

"I will do anything you ask of me Your Highness, what I can do to prove my loyalty"

"Catch your half-sister and bring her to me, I want her to suffer, I will make her mine and after I am done with her I will kill her slowly"

"How can I catch her she is stronger than the average wolf?"

"Take your pack and attack the pack where she is now, surely if you know her so well you will figure out a way to catch her, if you fail do not expect mercy from me, I will personally kill you and your whole pack. If my nephew does not get his claws on you first, that is"

I did not expect this, I wanted help but know I first have to prove myself! I have made up my mind this is the way to go the old Rogue King will be easier to handle and betray than the Real King.

I smile I know the pack where she is now and they are weak with an old alpha as their leader. I need to return to my pack and start getting ready for the attack. I will tell the pack that the old Alpha with the help of my little sister is planning to attack our pack as revenge for the death of her father and me taking her place as Alpha. I knew they did already thought of her as a weak human and had no respect for her. They must not found out about her real status. Luckily I killed the one who tracked her down.

Maximus's POV

I was laughing at myself well this young pup must think I am an old fool, but he was right about one thing if I let the Queen live she will turn against me and help that nephew of mine. I never thought about the fact that their bond might be stronger than the bond of average wolves. She must be very special because everyone is talking about her and my nephew and how strong they are going to be together. I wonder if they really are the couple the legend talks about, if they are I might be in big trouble if they get together. I just hope the pup is not just talking and can actually catch her, he looks confident enough.

I have talked to some elders that think if they get together the power will be too much and that they might use it for their own benefit. I played concerned as if I am not going to use the power of being king for my own benefit. I will have my Luna at last and I can not wait for that moment I will hold her in my arms. The one that should have been mine, I long for her.

I want to be the most powerful wolf in the world with the most powerful pack and the riches of cause. I look down on humans because they are not even half of what we the wolves are. I want to be so powerful and make all humans our slaves. It is about time the world change, why do we the most superior species on earth hide from mere humans. We are stronger, we were made by the Goddess herself. I had no place in my heart for humans. Everyone will bow down to me the King of Werewolves. I will demolish the elders and have no rules. I will not stop until this world belonged to only us the werewolves.

Now the Bloodsuckers will be a bit of a problem they are our biggest threat and our biggest enemies, and they are strong although they have one weakness, sunlight. We can take them out during the day. I will be happy the day there are no vampires around. Filthy creatures that live off of the blood of others, I also know that the bite of a werewolf is deadly to the bloodsuckers and that is why they try to keep away from us as much as possible, but they are fast and have vampire speed on their side. They are also strong and can kill a wolf fast in the blink of an eye, hence we see them as our biggest threat. I know the Moon Goddess will not approve of my plans but not even she will be able to stop me this time. I will deal with that problem when the time comes but right now I have other things to think about. Like my nephew and his mate.
