A ferocious snarl erupted from Alexis' mouth and the four men backed away from him by a few steps. The grey wolf bared his teeth at them and Louis pulled out his sword immediately, the other men following suit as they held out their weapons to protect themselves.
Louis narrowed his eyes, understanding what the man was trying to do here. Though it was understandable why the man had shifted at such a moment, the wise could discern the actual reason behind it. He was not exactly furious or being dominated over by his wolf. This was the ploy he was using to save himself and Louis almost lost his composure on seeing his cunning ways.
Alexis pounced on them after letting out a low growl. But the group was agile and quick and they moved away from him, forcing their swords at the feral animal to keep themselves safe.
"Alpha Alexis," Louis tried to gain his attention on him. "Calm down." He said, his face oddly calm, completely contradictory to what Alexis wanted of him. "Please shift to your human form and we can talk about the matter after you relax."
Louis' words fell on deaf years and the wolf attacked them again and this time, Louis did not hold back and thrust his sword at the animal, not caring about the impact that would have on him. He did not care if the wolf would target him and try to get even with him. All he wanted was for the man to surrender to him and if the wicked Alpha wanted to fight him, then a fight was what he would get.
Alexis was in no way falling for his words and he snarled at him, this time his growl loud enough to shake the earth and the guards who had been waiting outside the throne room as per his orders rushed in once, only to be dumbfounded to see their Alpha in his wolf form. Though this was not the first time, they were seeing their Alpha in the wolf form in the courtroom, they were still terrified and they retreated their steps in fear.
"Alpha, it will not do you any good if you were to attack us and harm us. Calm down." Louis attempted to calm him once again. But the wolf refused to listen to him and he attacked them once again and he almost bit Travis' leg if not for the warriors from Ideni pulling him back right on time.
Travis gave them a smile of gratitude before he glared at the Alpha who had almost killed him a moment ago.
"Alpha Alexis, you do realize that you would be guilty of intentional harm if you were to hurt anyone among us. Please refrain from harming us if you do not wish to add more to your offenses." Travis stated and Louis gave him a look of appreciation. Even in such a grave situation, he was oddly calm and he made it a note to praise him in front of his Commander.
Again, his words did not faze the wolf in the room and the two men from Ideni looked at each other before they stared at Louis.
"Sir Louis," One of the men started speaking as he kept his gaze on the wolf who was waiting for the right time to attack them again. "Should we shift too lest Alpha Alexis should try to harm us again?" He asked respectfully and Louis was once again, impressed by the men of Ideni. They were thoroughly trained and even knew how to analyze the situation. However, they never did anything against the orders and were extremely respectful of everyone.
"Sir Harvey, Sir Liam, please do not shift right now. Although it is not an offense now for you will only be defending yourself, I would suggest that you shift only when the situation turns severe." Louis ordered and the men stood still as they thrust their weapons again at the wolf that was eying them like a predator.
Travis stared at the guards of Renada who were standing by the door in shock and scowled to himself. "What you are watching? Come and help us deal with your Alpha." He shouted and taking the moment when Travis was distracted, Alexis attacked him, biting his leg in the meanwhile.
Travis howled in pain as he felt a warm, thick liquid flow down his right leg. The wolf's fangs were still pierced through his skin and Travis could not help but scream when he felt the animal almost pulling on his flesh as he tried to rip it apart.
Louis' eyes flashed with anger and he attacked the wolf, pushing his sword through his stomach and the animal let out a cry of anguish. Alexis let go of Travis' leg and he growled at Louis and Louis at once, realized what was happening. The Alpha of Renada never had the intention to surrender.
"Shift." He yelled at the two warriors of Ideni and as though they were waiting for this moment all this while, they shifted to their wolves.
Alexis roared when he saw the two wolves. Though they were smaller than him considerably, they were still a threat to him, a provocation for they had challenged him in his land and he charged at them immediately, not even caring about the consequence of his actions.
Although the two men already knew that it was impossible for them to handle an Alpha, they still braced themselves for a fight. They stood in front of Louis and Travis who were watching the Alpha of Renada in fear and anger.
"Alpha Alexis, I am warning again and this will be the last time," Louis stated, gaining the wolf's attention on him. "If you do not stop with your madness, you will be charged heavily for your crimes and nobody will be able to save you."
Alexis bared his teeth at him, annoyed by his provocation. He was just about to pounce on him when his next words stopped him.
"Moreover, our Commander and the Alpha of Ideni knows about us and our whereabouts. If something were to happen to us here, you will be held responsible, Alpha." He continued. "You can never get out of this mess even if you kill us here."
Louis had laid his plan out in the open and Alexis was beyond stunned to hear him state his strategy in such a calm manner.
"Did you think you could trick us, Alpha Alexis?" Louis pushed Travis behind him and gritted his teeth. "Even if you kill us, you cannot escape your punishment. Commander Aylin had already predicted your reaction and she has already made arrangements for us as well as you."
Louis smiled at the Alpha and an ominous started to settle in his heart.
"If anything were to happen to us until we reach Aranill safely, you, the Alpha of Renada will be held responsible for us." Louis smiled at him and Alexis' heart dropped to his stomach. "So, I suggest that you shift back to your human form and we can have a conversation. Otherwise," Louis' smile faltered and he looked at him sternly. "Do not blame us for being rude."
The warriors of Ideni were more than impressed by the turn of events and how the Commander of Aranill had prepared everything. She had made sure to plan everything tactfully and now, the Alpha of Renada had no way of escaping from his fate. He had already sinned by hiding the plan of attack from Commander Aylin and now, he had even attacked the people who had come to interrogate him.
Although Travis had been hurt in this matter, they had still trapped the man without his knowledge.
"And," Louis glanced at the guards who were still standing by the door. "Since the guards failed to do their duty in protecting their guests, they too will be held responsible for all that happened in this courtroom today. They will return to Aranill with us and will be punished accordingly."
The two guards dropped to their knees at once, their faces paling in horror. "But we listen to our Alpha first and he...he..." One of the guards stuttered, attempting to get out of the plight he was in.
"Sirs, your leader and king might be your Alpha and you might be only obligated to listen to him. But it is your duty first to ensure the safety of your guests." Louis fumed. "You were supposed to calm him down and request him to return to his human form. We are not at war and without knowing the actual situation, you are not allowed to decide on your own."
Louis already understood what had happened. Yet, he did not reveal the truth for he knew that the men would only refute his claims. He scoffed lightly as he stared at the gigantic grey wolf in front of him.
'Did you think I would not be able to see through your plan, Alexis?' The man had lost all his respect after what he had done. He was nothing but a sinner in his eyes and Louis was glad that nobody among them had been gravely hurt.
"Alpha Alexis, we will be departing for Aranill in an hour. Prepare for your departure." Louis did not even glance at the wolf and focused on Travis who was groaning in pain as he clutched his leg.
That day, all the people of Renada witnessed their Alpha and King being taken away by the warriors of Aranill as the man they had respected and admired kept his head down all the time.
