"It is my honor sirs. May I ask you the purpose of your visit?" Odin bows in front of Victor.

"Won't you invite us in?" Brent smirks.

"No need for that Brent. I can enter." Victor smiles and takes a step towards Odin. He was shocked but didn't show it on his face.

"The Elders left me in charge." He smirks.

"I am sorry. I wasn't that up to date about everything after we came back." Odin bows again. He was lying. He knew that the Black Alders were now in charge but he didn't know how much authority and power they were given.

Victor scoffs and invites himself in, Brent following him. He looks at their living room and scoffs again.

"It hasn't changed a bit from the last time I came here." he sits like a king on the sofa.

"You came here before?" Brent asks, sitting beside him.

"To advise them not to continue with the war." He smirks at Odin, "I already warned them about the deaths. It would have been better if they had just given up the baby." He smirks again.

"Sir," Odin says to Victor, "I am sure we aren't here to discuss the past." He replies in such a calm tone which always irritates Victor.

"This is the same tone with which you threw me out of this house 6 years ago." Victor reminds Odin. He knows what Victor is talking about but he changes the topic.

"We got your letter of condolence."

"Oh yes!" Victor says, "I am sorry I couldn't meet you in person after you came back from your exile. I hope the letter welcomed you well."

"Yes. It was warm and heartfelt of you to comfort us like that." He lies. That letter was a piece of shit that was only asserting the Black Alder's dominance over Alaska's packs now.

"Where is Damon?" Victor gets up to look around and tries to go upstairs but Odin stops him from moving with his powers.

"Using powers on an authority." He smirks and sits down again, "Bold move."

"You are not the authority." Odin reminds him that, "You were appointed by the Elders to help them, not be equal to them."

Victor looks at him with an amused expression.

"Alpha king is resting." Odin talks about Damon, "I am afraid he can't meet anyone right now."

"We aren't here to see him. Where is the other Alpha of this house?" Brent questions.

Evelyn lifts an eyebrow. She was still hiding behind the door. What do the Black Alders want from Zade?

"Zade?" Odin answers, "He doesn't live here anymore."

"Disowned?" Brent jokes.

"Engaged." Odin clears his throat, "Silver Bow Pack."

"Look at you." Victor sighs, "Mixing with the low-bloods again. Don't you learn from your past mistakes?" he looks curiously at Odin's expression which remains the same.

"Looks like we have a visitor." He looks at the door smirking, where Evelyn was hiding, "You can come out now, doll."

Evelyn freezes at her place as she sees Victor's eyes staring deep into her. She was busted. She opens the door quietly and comes out, much to the surprise of Odin.

"Eavesdropping is not appreciated." Victor gives her a smug look.

"Evelyn!" Odin looks angry, "I told you to leave!" but Victor holds her hand and points at the ring.

"Engaged to Zade, but not mated yet." He smirks again and leans in to whisper in her ear, "I wouldn't wait this long if I were you."

"I told you to leave, Evelyn!" Odin raises his voice a little.

Evelyn frees herself from Victor but looks at Odin with an angry expression.

"I am not leaving until I get my answers!" she retaliates.

"Ooooo," Victor makes fun of them, "Did I interrupt your family drama?" he teases Odin.

Odin glares at Evelyn which makes her shudder. "Fine!" she leaves, "But I'll be back!" she says before leaving.

"She is pretty, isn't she?" Brent talks to his wolf, Titan, and earns a growl in return.

"Where is Zade now?" Victor brings Odin's attention to the main thing.

"At his job." He replies.

"If I were you, I would advise him not to work there anymore. He is becoming an obstacle to my plan." He hands him a card of the company Zade works for. It has Victor's name as the director. Odin's eyes become wide with surprise.

"I think the message is pretty clear, Odin." Victor gets up to leave, "You stay out of my way and I will assure you that no harm comes to your pack."

He leaves with Brent, leaving a worried Odin behind.

"That's it?" Brent asks Victor after coming out, "I thought we had to give a warning to Zade."

"Odin is much smarter than he looks. I am sure he will be enough for now." He sits in the car, remembering the events that occurred here the last time he visited.

"I don't understand, how can you say that Victor?" Damon looks like he would impale Victor with his sword. The Silver Bow Pack had just declared war against them and Damon was trying his best to gather allies. Victor came to him that day to express his thoughts.

"It would save you a lot of lives, Damon." Victor insists.

"We don't support such heinous crimes here." Damon looks very angry now.

"It is not a crime to think about the safety of your pack and the other packs you are involving in it." Victor shrugs.

"We will not kill the baby. They want a war; we will give them a war." Damon threatens Victor. "If the Black Alders don't want to help, so be it."

"Are you declining my offer?" Victor challenges him.

"You are not the Alpha King. You wouldn't understand this." Damon yells at him.

"What? Making my innocent pack soldiers fight in a war that you know you will lose? Just for what? A baby from the low blood mother?" Victor laughs.

"It is the Queen Omega's baby. Talk with respect!" It was Odin who raised his voice at Victor.

Victor shudders at his order. The Blue Moons were the authoritative figure back in the day, left by the Elders, so all the other packs had to obey them.

But Victor was good at defying rules.

"What if I don't?" Victor smirks, "I gave you a reasonable solution to stop the bloodshed. The Elders will be very pissed." He reminds them.

This war was the first war ever declared in almost 500 years. The Elders were good at maintaining the peace but whoever challenged that, was given a punishment.

"Get this man out of our house!" Odin commands in a calm voice to the soldiers.

They drag Victor out who doesn't show any sign of restraint.

"I will not forget this. Ever!" Victor shouts once more before he is thrown on the road.
