The Untamed: Game of Hearts
The Moonlight squad members became very busy with every task assigned to each and every single one of them. Mia remained at Raine's private residence inside Moon Clan Territory to monitor everything through her computer while Levi had to go out often with Lyne to monitor the Yue Group while Raine was not around. And like their Boss suspected, Yun was on fire with embezzling countless amounts of resources from the Group as the two managed to keep everything that was happening to the Group's ledgers on record.
Dan and a few of the members fled back to country V to continue in monitoring Xander's safety in the shadows though Earth Clan was doing a great job in providing total security for Xander. The rest of the members were on stand-by at the nearest island to Plumeria island.
Levi and Lyne were doing their usual business work that day inside the Yue Group building.
"So, what's going on between you and Boris?"
Levi couldn't help but ask the question as an icebreaker while he did some back stretching inside their Boss's office. His head was already spinning around because of too many numbers on the monitor of his laptop. It would be nice to take a break and divert his attention to something else before his brain would explode. He hated the business world but surprisingly he was the only one more suitable in it like Lyne who their Boss could rely on while she was gone and busy on other things.
Predictably, Lyne stopped what she was doing as she squinted menacingly at Levi.
"What? You see, since you came back with him that day… Well, how can I say this? Huh, you seem more comfortable around him unlike now?" Levi burst out with a teasing grin. He noticed that Lyne was no longer grumpy around Boris like she used to. And he was not the only one who noticed the change. Mia picked up on it as well. His eyes suddenly widened as he gasped, "Don't tell me you're considering him? That Mate Pull? Do you somehow feel that? You want to become a mutant now?"
Lyne raised an eyebrow at Levi's questions in a row. She let out a sigh then plainly spoke, "Why not? That way, I'll be stronger, right?"
"Yeah, but… I mean… Seriously? Do you see yourself shapeshifting like one of those monsters we used to kill?" Levi questioned. He could not help but cringe while he imagined Lyne changing into a werewolf!
As far as they were concerned, among all of them in the squad, it was Lyne who was dying to kill every last werewolf in existence. Well, not all werewolves, but those who were rogues and were deemed a threat to humanity. Those at least clearly deserved to die, especially that so-called Danos who mercilessly killed her father.
"Well, I won't mind as long as Danos dies before my eyes. I've chosen to accept Boris once he brought me Danos's head on a spike," Lyne coldly revealed. "After all these years, my mother still couldn't move forward. She's still having those nightmares where she often heard my father's pleas for justice, all while his body got torn to pieces despite him begging for his life…" she commented with a grim expression. She was way too anxious because she was powerless to exact her revenge on her own.
"I just hope you're making the right decision then. Either way, we've always got your back no matter what happens," Levi noddingly reassured. "Well, Boris might seem like a nice person despite his brusque and tactless personality, but it's still way too early to tell… Will you mention this to the Boss? I think it'll be better if she's also aware of it," he suggested because he was worried for Lyne. Their Boss would not allow this and would surely tell Lyne to be patient and wait for their mission to attack Convel Society soon. Their Boss promised Lyne that she would end Danos herself.
"I'm not sure. Boss already has a lot of things on her plate right now, and I don't want to add myself to her already long list of burdens," Lyne sighed. "Although, I'm sure she'll make up her own countermeasures and try her best to kill Danos with her own two hands like what she had promised me before... It's just… I don't want this situation to add even more pressure on her," she explained, Levi nodding in agreement. "Anyway, enough with you butting your nose into my affairs. How about you and Mia? I feel like something is going on between you two. I mean, lately, I noticed how you're constantly acting strange whenever you're around her."
Levi snorted, "Me? What're you saying? I'm just being my usual self, Lyne." He harrumphed, "Hmp! How dare you tease me just to get back at me?"
Lyne only shook her head at his defensiveness, stopping her own speculation short as they still had a lot better things to do than to chit-chat about their own personal affairs.
"Anyway, let's just focus on our work now, shall we? I'm sure Prince Yun would go haywire at any moment now once the summons for the Mirage Trial reaches his doorsteps," Lyne commented with a smirk. SSomehow, she could already feel their impending victory against Prince Yun.
*****
True enough with Lyne's assumptions, at the Yue Mansion, Yun was raging mad as he read the summons he received regarding the trials from the Mirage Council.
"What is this?"
He didn't expect something like this to happen. Fuming, he crumpled the paper in his hands and threw it to his men.
A trial? Who dared to even file a complaint against him!?
As if by design, he quickly found the answer to his own question in his mind. His mind immediately drifted to the fact that Xander was currently in their country, staying at the nearby Earth clan territory.
"I want everyone logging every single shred of activity inside and out of our territory! I want everyone checked thoroughly! Someone in here's stabbing me in the back, and I want to know who it is!" Yun shouted. It wouldn't be easy for Xander to get to that trial if none from Moon Clan helped or assisted the man.
Currently, there were only a few people who were even remotely powerful enough to assist Xander in this trial...
"Put the entire household of Ester under house arrest! No one among her household should leave for anywhere without permission from me! And find Raine now! Include all of my entire household and the King's other women in house arrest!" Yun commanded with an iron fist.
He ground his teeth into dust. Whoever it was that dared to stab him in the back like this would die instantly.
"Sir, will you attend the trial?" Dalgon asked.
Yun hit the man's head and hissed, "Dimwit! Of course, I have to attend that trial! They probably already have valid evidence for that trial to get approved."
Things were getting out of hand now. Why at this time, when he was about to usurp the throne, did he get entangled in all of this mess? He would end up as a dead man if he somehow couldn't get things back in order in this trial.
"Are you tailing Xander's assistant?" Yun reminded him.
Dalgon nodded, "Yes, They have a lot of communications and transactions going on in their facility at country U. Mr. Long has all of the information. He said he will report to you directly once he has gathered some useful data for us."
"How about Xander's wife?" Yun followed up.
"We've already found out about her location, but the security there is too tight. She's under Ken's protection?" Dalgon explained as he laid out the details of the place.
At the information, Yun let out a loud sadistic laugh like a madman. The Demon Don… He had heard of that man from the underworld...
"Hadn't they had enough bloodbath in their family? And they still want to join yet another bloodbath for the sake of strangers?" Yun growled. "I don't care how you do it, but I want you to have Xander's wife in your custody by my signal. I'll see how the trial goes, and if it ever happens to go against me, make sure that Yera Han is in our hands with but a snap of my fingers," he ruthlessly instructed with gritted teeth.
"At once, Sir."
At his word, his lackey expressed his usual nod of obedience. However, as soon as Dalgon had left, Yun called out for his butcher.
"See to it that Dalgon is properly mobilizing resources according to my instructions," he mumbled.
Yun was disappointed at how slow Dalgon had become lately. He hadn't worked so sluggish before. It was almost suspicious enough to suspect that something was wrong. As such, he wouldn't dare entrust all the important work in Dalgon's hands anymore.
"Will you dare betray me, Dalgon?" he snarled with squinted eyes.
