Chapter 48
Uprising
Alpha Kingsley POV
Arrival at the venue for the meeting as stated in the letter given to all Lycan lords.
The letter had stated that all Lycan lords were to meet with the elders in council for an important meeting and briefing, but reason for the meeting wasn’t mentioned, and emphasis had been laid on attendance.
I arrived in front of the building. It was a one-story building constructed like a manor, with ancient architectural design, situated on a secluded part of the sacred ground.
Two guards stood watch in front of the building as I approached.
“Greetings, my Lord,” they both bowed with respect.
“Hmm,” I nodded.
“Have the others arrived?” I asked.
“Yes, my Lord. Many lords have arrived and are already inside,” one of them answered, their heads still bowed.
They both stepped aside as I walked in.
I took the stairs up to a narrow end on the first floor. In front stood a giant door that spoke of old age.
I took out the invitation letter, and my fang protruded a bit. I bit my thumb to draw out a drop of blood and pasted it on the letter, then went ahead to insert it into the opening in front of the door.
Immediately, it caught fire, burning out instantly, and the ashes evaporated into the opening. Soon, the sound of metal moving echoed as the giant door opened, and I stepped inside.
Inside was a big hall with different rows of seats and tables. Candles of different colors and lanterns adorned the hall, with ancient murals on the walls giving it an old, mystical vibe.
Silence.
Other Lycans and the elders were already seated, and all eyes turned to me. The murmuring and noise stopped for a bit before the chatter began again, but in low tones, as if afraid of disturbing my peace.
I chuckled softly.
Such is my reputation and my fame.
“Look who decided to show up,” a voice mocked. I turned to identify the familiar face.
Alpha Damien.
My long-time rival and enemy. He was also of Lycan bloodline and contesting for the Lycan chairmanship position to and une me as his biggest competitor
“I don’t think it’s time for dogs to bark,” I replied.

“Stop being delusional,” I smiled at him.
“Come sit with me,” he invited, and I joined him, taking my seat beside him in the front row.
Many eyes were still focused on me as they stared from time to time while murmuring and chatting in low voices among th
little circles.
“Silence, please.”
An elder stood up, bringing the noisy hall to complete stillness.
“You’re all welcome, Lords, and it’s my pleasure to receive you all in this assembly,” he said, bowing slightly.
“I know that you all might be wondering why we called for this meeting instead of waiting for the wolf conference to comme tomorrow.” He paused, looking at the audience. All attention was now drawn to him.
“If you have anything important to say, just say it and stop beating around the bush,” one Alpha replied impatiently.
I looked around and noticed that apart from Lycan lords, Alphas of different packs were also present.
“Hahaha… I’m getting there, but first, how many of us remember the holy war?” he asked.
“We are all Alphas here, and even common pack members know of the holy war. It’s even listed as a holy testament in our pack to remind everyone of its terror,” another Alpha interrupted, frowning a bit.
“Please get to the point and stop delaying,” another Alpha complained as murmuring rose from the crowd.
“Please state why exactly this meeting was called,” a Lycan lord questioned, bringing silence immediately to the hall.
The elder breathed in and waved his hands to calm everyone down.
“Since we all know of the holy war, then the instigator of the holy war should be very much ingrained in our minds,” he spoke
“Baalzebul, the evil god, is back,” he dropped the bombshell.
