Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 0406 We left the estate and entered the van that would transport us to the hangar where the jet was.

We boarded silently, and I knew we were all eager and anxious to see what would happen.

We wanted it to be over so we could get on with our lives. Many of Larry's co- conspirators, like Nikolas Sullivan, were still at large, but I knew we would get them.

Once we catch their king, they will be easy prey. We just need to get the man at the top, and that would be it. Their entire structure would crumble.

We landed and went to a small house that belonged to Marcel's family. We

planned on waiting until we got a signal from the shadow guards that we could move in.

I wanted to arrest Larry myself. I wanted to look into his eyes while I clamped silver on his wrist. Taking him down was personal to all of us.

"Since Larry does not know we know it is him; call him on the phone. Let's have an idea of his state of mind," Tamia said, and I did not even think of that. I was treating the matter as if he already knew.

Taking out my phone, I roamed my Lucland number to use in Gad and called Larry. It took a while before he answered.

"Your majesty," he said over the phone, and I knew I had to be on my guard.

"Where are you? I want to have a meeting. This uprising is an issue, and I need all hands on deck," I said, and he sighed.

"Tam on leave, your majesty. I went to Grizlo to rest. The other council members will be eager to serve. Once I return, I can lend a hand," he said, and I sighed.

I could command him to come to me, and he would have no choice but to cut the vacation short if he wanted to keep up his pretence.

One thing I picked out was that he had lied to me. He told his family he was going to Grizlo, but he was in Gad. The shadow guards had confirmed it. It also meant Amanda wasn't lying.

""T am ordering you to make yourself available, or your seat is forfeit," I told

him, and I heard a low growl come from him.

"I have the right to take a vacation, but if you want to retire me because of it, so be it. The seats on the council are no longer relevant anyway," he said boldly with such effrontery that made me look forward to what would happen to him.

"Very well then," I said and hung up. I had gotten what I wanted.

Just then, Marcel got off the phone, and I heard the good news.

"They said he is in the location Amanda gave us in Gad. He has a few warriors guarding him, but the snipers have positioned themselves ready to take them down when we arrive," he said, and we got up to move.

A white van was waiting for us.

We would call for another van when we captured the bastard.

While we moved to the location, I realised it was just as I thought.

The whole uprising was a mental operation with no muscles involved.

How did he plan to take over without an army? He hoped Leo and Devin would do the job for him, and then he would swoop in at the last minute. That was what he was hoping for; too bad the three of us have become unlikely friends, and I hope it gets better from there.

We parked a street away and waited for the snippers to tell us they were done.

Marcel got the confirmation we needed

in ten minutes and walked to the building.

The front door was open, so we let ourselves in.

Devin had a silver chain ready to bound Larry with it.

Leo's wolf was ready to attack and kill.

The rest of us were eager to finish it and go home.
