The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 289

Leonard's POV:

The she-wolf's face in my mind was blurry, as though a wall of flowing water separated us. I tried to focus on her face, but the image collapsed in an instant and my head started to ache severely.

I couldn't help but stagger backwards. Thankfully, Owen hurried to support me.

"Are you okay?" Owen looked at me seriously, although there was a hint of nervousness in his tone.

"Dad, you should get some rest." Alina also looked at me worriedly.

I took a deep breath and shook my head. "I'm fine. It'll look bad if I suddenly leave now."

These days, my health was deteriorating quicker than ever. I feared that my days were numbered. What worried me more was the fact that my pack had a lot of enemies. Once I fell sick, we would definitely face chaos. Luckily, only a few people knew about my current physical condition. The outside world didn't know anything about it.

Other packs were jealous of the Silver Moon Pack, but little did they know that we were facing a crucial problem.

I still didn't know who the next Alpha should be. Originally, I wanted to train my only child, Alina, to become the new Alpha. However, I soon realized that she was too weak to carry the entire pack on her shoulders.

Fortunately, I had another option: Warren. I had watched the young man grow up. He was brave, resourceful, and righteous. He kind of reminded me of myself back when I was at my prime.

The only thing I was worried about was his stubbornness. Once he had made up his mind about something, he would never give up, even if it meant sacrificing a lot. It was often difficult to mold this kind of person.

But it wasn't too big a problem. Nobody was perfect, and young people always had their own edges. I held onto the hope that, with time, he would be shaped by his experiences and life.

That was why I sent him to the Royal Military School. While I originally wanted to train him, as an elder of our pack, I knew that he could do better.

As for Alina, although I had a lot of expectations for her, I couldn't help but feel helpless and powerless.
