Chapter 113: The Ultimatum

Andrei

My dad is pissed.

No. Scratch that.

He’s furious.

Despite his efforts to bribe the council, they were adamant with their decision to make me the sacrificial lamb for the peace treaty. My dad didn’t have a choice but to follow through. Thing is, I am unwilling to be their pawn. I informed him about the plan that Kayleigh and I devised. I thought he’d commend me and be impressed that I found a solution. But instead of getting his seal of approval, I’m getting hollered at and have been given an ultimatum that I’d lose my luxurious lifestyle if I don’t abide by the council’s wishes.

“Perestanʹ vesti sebya kak rebenok!” Stop acting like a child, he says in Russian.

“Papa, this is bullshit. Tell them to find another alpha.” I snarl but I rein my anger in. I don’t really want to add a log to my dad’s burning fury.

“The red wolves specifically asked for you. They already said that no else is acceptable.” His voice is firm and unyielding.

“Nyet, papa. I’m not gonna do it.”
