After that, they all walked back into the room and Zane helped Kiara lay back down on the bed.
“Do you feel better, my love?” He questioned as he caressed her hair and she nodded.
“Yes I do. I think my injuries are starting to heal” She murmured and he nodded before placing a kiss on her lips.
“Daniel, have you gotten any lead on the monster?” Daniel shook his head then let out a sigh.
“For some reason that monster has refused to attack. There has been no sign of it and it’s almost beginning to
seem like we all just imagined it” Zane nodded.
“We’ll get it soon, I’m sure of it. That monster cannot stay quiet for too long” Then he turned back to Kiara and
grabbed her hand.
“I’m sure by tomorrow your wounds must have healed. I’ll have all the little stuff you had at your house transported
to mine because that’s where you’ll be staying from now on. I need to keep my eyes on you” She nodded, not even
trying to argue. He was right, she would be safe as long as she was with him.
“Zane, can I talk to you for a second?” Zane turned to the voice and furrowed his eyebrows when he saw Levi. He
had totally forgotten about him.
“What is it?”
“I would like to talk to you alone,” Zane frowned.
“I don’t think we have anything to say to each other alone and besides, I trust everyone here… well maybe except
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHeather and you” Heather rolled her eyes but didn’t say anything while Levi sighed.
“Please, I just have to tell you something and it needs to be in private” Zane was about to refuse but Kiara grabbed
onto his hand.
“Just listen to what he has to say first, okay?” Zane turned to her with a frown then let out a sigh before turning to
Levi.
“Fine but make it quick” He muttered then stood up from the bed and walked out of the room with Levi behind him.
“Wolves have super hearing, right?” Levi questioned as they stood in front of the hospital room. Zane raised an
eyebrow at him.
“Yeah but what does that have to…”
“We need to move further away,” Zane frowned.
“Okay what the fuck is going on?” Levi sighed.
“Look, I know you trust everyone inside that room but you can never be too careful. One of your kind, especially
one close to you is working with my father” Zane’s eyes widened slightly.
“And how can I trust that you are telling the truth?” Levi sighed.
“Think about it. My father’s men invaded your pack a few weeks back and although they didn’t plan on hurting
anyone and just wanted to see how strong you were, don’t you find it weird that they were able to get in so easily? I
don’t really know how this works but I expected your pack to be guarded with abled men” Zane frowned.
“It was” He also hadn’t thought about it and he had forgotten to ask as well. He wasn’t in a good position with Kiara
at that moment so she was all he could think about.
“Well I heard this from my brother, Lucien. They were given an anonymous tip to go through the back because
there was apparently a passageway that wasn’t guarded by anyone. Not only that but whoever this insider was, he
or she also gave my father Intel on where your pack was located” Zane’s frown deepened.
The possibility of there being a betrayer amongst his most trusted men did cross his and Daniel’s mind before but
they hadn’t done anything to be sure about their claims.
Only a handful of his men knew about the back passage way. No member of his pack including Kiara even knew
about it so that meant… someone was betraying him.
“Is there anything else I need to know?” Levi stared at him for a while and for the first time, he could understand
why Kiara was so in love with Zane. He didn’t want to admit it but he and Zane were so different from each other.
Zane was always calm and collective when it came to business. Although anyone could see that he was not to be
messed with,he still held that calm demeanor no matter what he was feeling inside. Whereas him, his emotions
were always shown on his face, he was weak and was hardly ever calm. He wasn’t a leader like Zane and he wasn’t
sure he could ever be.
“Actually there is something I’d like to ask you” Zane furrowed his eyebrows then folded his arms.
“What is it?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“How… How can I become a great leader like you? How can I… how can I be you?” Zane was taken aback by his
words and for a minute, he just stood there staring at Levi with surprise written all over his face.
The tip of Levi’s ears turned pink as a wave of embarrassment washed over him.
“Forget I said anything” He muttered and was about to walk past Zane when Zane spoke.
“You can’t be me, Levi” Levi clenched his fist slightly then let out a Chuckle.
“I don’t even know why I asked that. Just… just forget I…”
“Every being in this world is unique in their own way so you should never aspire to be like someone else because
being you is enough” Levi’s eyes widened slightly then he turned to Zane. He hadn’t expected him to say something
like that.
“But being me is not enough. When you think of a Mafia leader, someone like me isn’t what you imagine. I’m too
weak and soft. I’m not a leader material like you” Zane smirked.
“Well I am the greatest but that doesn’t mean anything. You being weak or soft doesn’t mean you’re not going to
be a good leader. You just have to rule according to how you see fit. You have to rule according to how you can. If
you put away self doubt, I can assure you that you’ll turn into the best mafia King your mafia has ever had. You just
have to see that in you before others can see it. Why don’t you start with me? I can’t see if you’ll be a good leader
and I don’t think you’ll ever become one with the way you handle things” Levi frowned. Didn’t that sentence just
contradict all he had just said?
“What?”
“Show me just how good of a leader you can be”
