My Secret, My Bully, My Mates

I didn't sleep well in the few hours that I did try. I am restless and if I am being honest with myself, I am eager. We have been at this for months now, almost a year, and we finally have information to move on and take action. I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited that we were finally going to move tomorrow. I could feel it in the house last night as the team was making plans and gearing up, many of them have been at this for years, they want to wrap this up, find this rogue king and either kill him or take a step towards killing him. He's enslaving people, kidnapping women, forcefully taking over packs and all for the small gain of becoming the King of our territory.

There are so many Alpha Kings, because the world is too big to have just one. There are wolves everywhere and by nature need a strong leader and to be part of a pack. We naturally gravitate towards a hierarchy and as long as everyone does their part we live well. But there is always someone who sees being a leader as being in power or having ultimate power. Those are the people that are never chosen to be a leader, because they miss the point completely. Leaders are subject to making hard decisions that benefit the many, not just what they want personally. It's not about having slaves or people to order around. It's about keeping everyone safe and happy and healthy, putting the whole pack and our race above your own needs. Not all people who want to be leaders should lead, because they don't understand this.

If Alpha Reggie is right and this rogue king is a descendant of the royal line who has been taught to be bitter about the birth order and whatever privileges he thinks he's missing out on he is going to be hard to defeat. His bloodline alone will make it difficult to fight him if we meet up with him, but also a lifetime of hatred and vengeance can make people do crazy things. That's something that warrior training really focused on. Many of the people we will fight believe with every fiber of their being that they are right and that what they are fighting for is right and the rest of the world at large is out to get them. It's almost like a disorder and as much as you can't get sucked into their bullsh*t, you also have to understand where they are coming from to find a crack in their armor that will bring them down.
