Sold AS The alpha King's Breeder

Chapter 738

Chapter 83 : A Place We All Belong

“This is far from good…” I muttered.

“Dylan?” Payne asked. “That isn’t a very common name. There’s only one Dylan I can think of.”

“And it is probably the one we’re thinking of too,” Thomas said. He sighed and stood up, stretching his back until it popped.

“Dylan Crimson, the Alpha King’s third or fourth cousin?” Payne asked.

“That’s the one,” Thomas agreed with a nod.

Payne creased his brow. “That’s not possible… he’s been missing for years.”

“Before he went missing, Soren and I ran into a four-toed wolf. We fought and he was definitely strong. But the conflict didn’t escalate,” Thomas explained.

“I don’t think he wanted us to recognize him. He ran off.”

“But he was a great fighter. I remember both of us were impressed and thrown for a loop.”

“So, when we got back from our patrol, Soren and I did our research. The only name we could come up with for a four-toed wolf was Dylan Crimson,” Thomas added.

“I don’t know much about him,” Payne admitted. “Dylan shared the royal family’s last name. He was King Sebastian’s Beta for a while… until he disappeared. It was sudden, if I recall correctly.”

“It was very sudden,” I agreed with a nod.

“No one ever knew where he went.”

“We never saw him or heard from him again after that fight. It was such a trivial conflict we didn’t spend any more time investigating him,” Thomas said, motioning between me and himself.

“Why are you so sure that it is Dylan this time? Just based on the four claws?” Payne asked.

“That, and Mila told me to watch out for the Alpha King,” I said.

“Wait, she did?” Thomas asked. “That is a total can of worms you don’t want to open.”

“If this is Dylan, he’s part of the royal family, which means there has to be a connection. Mila wouldn’t give a warning like that lightly,” I assured.

“That’s reaching. We have to be very careful if we’re going to start suspecting the Alpha King,” Payne warned.

“We’re being careful. Besides, right now this is about Dylan and Chandler. I never expected the two of them to be together,” I said. I rubbed my chin thoughtfully.

“What should we do now, Boss?”

Payne asked, looking at me with wide, concerned eyes.

I could understand his concerns about putting the Alpha King on our enemy list. He was the most powerful man in the realm and we were definitely no match for him. Thomas was right, that was a can of worms I did not want to open.

No matter how hard I tried, I’d never be able to close it.

Right now, we had more important things to worry about.

“Don’t worry, Payne, I’m not about to declare war on the Alpha King. We do need to get ready to go after Chandler and save Mila,” I said.
