Gavin's eyes shone brightly as he stared at his Alpha in admiration. His respect for the man turned profound and once again, he was relieved that Ideni had such an amazing Alpha and King. With him around and protecting the kingdom with all his might, no one would ever dare to hurt the people.
Even now, the unknown enemy they were dealing with would regret ever crossing Alpha Azimir, who the entire world feared. The person was courageous to have thought of going against a man like Azimir and foolish at the same time. It was impossible for anyone to win against Azimir in terms of intelligence or power. The hidden enemy was bound to lose this time and Gavin only hoped that they caught the person as quickly as possible.
With every moment that passed, the uneasiness increased. It would be fine if the enemy exactly how they had predicted their plan to be. But if he deviated from the plan, then would the Alpha's plan go to waste?
"Do you have anything to say, Vasili? Zavid?" Azimir turned around to face the two men who had not spoken the word since the other ministers had left the courtroom. He could not make out what they were thinking for they had their thoughts blocked. And they had not even added their concerns and thoughts when he was discussing the plan with Gavin. So, Azimir was worried that they were not satisfied with what he had in mind.
"No, Alpha, we do not. The plan is perfect and I am sure that if our enemy does not change his plan, then we will capture him soon." Vasili added and Zavid nodded in agreement. They had no reasons to believe otherwise.
The plan was impeccable and they were still surprised by the amount of effort their Alpha had put into the plan. And why would he not when his kingdom's peace and his people's lives in were danger? The man had given his all to make sure that the enemy would not succeed, even if he had to give up his life for what he had in mind. Now, all that remained was for the enemy to fall for their trap and them to capture him.
Azimir smiled when he saw Gavin's admiration. The man was an easy book to read. His expressions revealed his emotions and if not for his intelligence, it was quite easy for anyone to trick him. The man was naive but not dumb. He knew what was right and what was wrong and had the ability to protect himself in case of danger and Azimir needed a man like him to carry out his plan.
Since he had already pulled the man into his plan, he had to be honest with him. He cannot play halfheartedly and he trusted the man to keep all that happened in the courtroom a secret from the others who would try all methods to extract information from him.
"Soon, Nathalie will be joining us in the plan." Azimir glanced at Zavid before he revealed the truth and the moment Gavin heard him, his smile slipped and his expression changed drastically. His emotions morphed into that of shock and he blinked at his Alpha a few times until his shock turned into fear. How could he not fear the woman who was capable enough to kill anyone in the world in just a blink of the eye?
"Nath...Nathalie....will she be.." Gavin licked his lips that had gone dry all of a sudden due to fear. His mind had turned blank and he had no idea what he was speaking at that moment. "Why will Nathalie...." Gavin stopped again when he realized what he was about to say next. Would he not be questioning his Alpha's decision if he were to ask him why the woman was joining them in the plan.
"I mean does she also know about the plan, Alpha?" Gavin changed his words in time before he annoyed his Alpha with his idiotic words.
"Not yet. But soon. She will reach Ideni tomorrow night and we will inform her of the plan. Let us see if she has any good inputs to our plan." Azimir smirked, clearly understanding why Gavin was this stressed and why would he not when the woman they were speaking about was nothing but normal?
Gavin gulped loudly and he immediately remembered the day when he had seen Nathalie battle it out with men who had dared to challenge her in a bout. At first, she had only handled the men using just her strength. But soon, she started to show them what she was capable of. Her powers were anything but extraordinary and considering how formidable she was, it would just take a touch from her to die on spot. The woman was a monster and he did not know what to make out of the predicament he was in.
But he could not stop her from joining their plan. Right? It was not his decision to make. With a sigh, he resigned to his fate and Azimir understood what he was thinking at that moment, even though he could not hear his thoughts.
"And let me tell you that it was Nathalie who warned about the danger. So, she has to be in the plan."
Gavin's expression turned into one of shock again. But he composed himself quickly. Now, he understood what was happening. It was no wonder that Alpha had found out about the enemy even before the person took against him or the kingdom of Ideni. It was all Nathalie. Now, there was no need for Gavin to doubt her involvement in the plan.
"Moreover, you have nothing to be afraid of. Zavid will take care of Nathalie. You just focus on the plan." Azimir assured, not noticing the expression Zavid had at that moment.
Zavid's lips twitched and he closed his eyes for a moment. 'Alpha, who will save my Nathalie then?' He cried and Vasili who was standing just beside him smiled when he saw the man's aggrieved expression. It sure was amusing and hilarious and he had to use a lot of strength to stop himself from laughing out loud.
Yet, Azimir did not miss his snicker and he turned to the man, raising his brows at him questioningly and Vasili shook his head immediately. Azimir did not miss his twinkling eyes before he saw Zavid and he understood the matter immediately. Zavid's plight was depicted on his face and this time, Azimir too let out a chuckle, startling Zavid and Gavin who had no idea about the matter.
But neither men dared to question him about it. He was Alpha and he could laugh and cry whenever he wanted. How dare they ask him about it. They were not sick of their lives and wish to die this quickly. They still had to lot to do and they cherished their lives as much as they cherished their kingdom.
Azimir too did not explain the reason behind his behavior, allowing the mystery to linger in the air. Anyway, there was no need for them to know all his thoughts.
"I understand your fear for Nathalie. But you have nothing to worry about, Minister Gavin. She is not as terrifying as you assume her to be. Just make sure you do not provoke her and you will be fine." Azimir assured him and Gavin this time, nodded lightly, assured by him. He relaxed and let out a sigh of breath in relief.
"You may leave now, Minister Gavin." Azimir's face turned serious all of a sudden, his eyes cold and filled with warning. "And I do not think I need to remind you to keep this matter a secret. Once you leave the courtroom, you are not to speak a word about all that happened here. If at all anyone else finds out about what we have discussed today, you will live to see the sun another day."
Gavin gulped in fright and he nodded frantically. "Alpha, I promise you that the matter will not leave this courtroom. Other than the five of us, no one will find out about it. I promise. You can trust me on it. My lips will be sealed and if I fail to do as I promised, you can seal my lips forever."
"You have my word on it and I hope you will not test me on it. I will do exactly as you ask if you try to betray me. You better stay true to your words. Otherwise, do not blame me for being cruel." Azimir added and Gavin nodded at him, a chill running down his spine. He vowed to never cross his Alpha ever. Otherwise, it would not be long before his head and body would be separated from each other. The man was powerful enough to rip his head apart in just a blink of an eye.
After bowing at the three men, Gavin took his leave while the three men watched him leave the courtroom. They waited until the doors closed before Vasili broke the silence first.
"Alpha, can we trust him on this?"
"Yes, he will not dare betray me. He knows the consequences of doing so." Azimir replied and locked his hands behind his back. His eyes flashed when a notion entered his mind and he shifted his gaze away from the door immediately.
"Zavid, increase the guards around the kingdom entrance and palace. We need to stay alert from now onwards. If the spy has taken the bait, then we will have the result soon." He ordered and Vasili and Zavid understood the meaning behind his words immediately. "Also, send men to protect Gavin.. He will the first one to fall for the enemy's ploy."
