Chapter Eighteen: Seraphyna Steps Up

Seraphyna followed Damon down the corridor. Her mind was jumbled with hers and Amadaus last conversation. She grumbles lowly to herself over it.

"What's troubling you Seraphyna? Something bothering you...?"

Damon asks hearing her grumble. He turned and faced her. Seraphyna looked at her Alpha and shook her heaad a bit hesitantly.

"Nothing I can't handle Sir.... Don't fret over it." Seraphyna reassured him by placing a hand on his shoulder. She could sense he wasa getting closer to her and not just because she was his number two Beta.

Seraphyna could sense that he wanted her and wanted it soon. he may have to give in eventually and take what he had til she could get Amadaus. Damon wasn't as powerful as Amadaus yet both would be useful to her plans.

Damon steps closer to her and gives her a smile. She blushed a bit as she could read his thoughts, a special ability she had developed the day after she became a wolf runner.

"Damon...calm yourself. heh..your thoughts aare loud." Seraphyna teased as she walked past Damon. He laughed and replied;

"Can't help it when a pretty one is near me. At least you know what I'm wanting...eventually."

Seraphyna blushed again but kept herself composed as always. She nods and winks at him as a hint to what he may get if he behaves.

Damon steps up to speak when a Gamma ranked male comes to him.

"Sir...Amadaus is gone....and...he took the page."

Damon's relaxed gaze went cold and his brows furrowed. His lips curled into a snarled scowl as he began to growl.

"Any clue to where he went? He stared at the Gamma male and steps towards him as the Gamma cowers low in fear.

"H..his scent led towards...Motus' territory. Others believe Amadaus was...playing sides....to go against you after the areana inccident."

Damon snarled and struck the Gamma in anger. He huffed and knocked the closest things over in his rage. Damon never thought his own blood that he trusted would betray him like this....unless...he wasn't and was going to finish the job for Damon.

Damon calmed a bit at this thought and looked at the Gamma as he was knelt aside Damon. He lifted the Gamma by his shirt and said in a low tone.

"Track Amadaus and observe him.. do not engage til I give the word. I need to know his intentions for going up there before I chose to strike. So gather three others and scout only. understood..?"

The Gamma nods and scrambles off as soon as Damon drops him to the ground. Seraphyna walks up and offers an idea.

"Let me follow the scouts to make sure they don't screw up. I'll report back anything they don't catch themselves."

Seraphyna knew that this was her chance to continue her underlying plans she had going already. This was the opportunity she needed for the next step.

"Alright... do well and i'll give you a reward..a new ranking position.. as the Female Alpha. To rule along side me. I've had my eye on you for a long time now Seraphyna. And here is your chance to show me if you are a worthy choice as I believe you to be."

Seraphyna nods to him and turns to go prepare for her journey. With her back to him, she gives a mischievious grin and a soft chuckle to herself.
