Chapter 775 Plans for Grady (2)
"How can rogues use Grady against us?" Talia asked. "He was seen here, and we will take him to the Dark Howlers pack secretly."Talia would ask for moral support from Damon, but Damon told her more than once that she was too soft, so she guessed that Damon would probably just agree with James. And even if Damon defended her, he would do it because she is his mate and not because he believed it.
She decided to show some backbone. "What does my personality have to do with Grady?"
"Nothing," James said. "But because you are so kind and inexperienced, you can\'t see how dirty people can be. Your best quality is also your biggest flaw."
"I am not sure if you are complimenting or insulting me," Talia shared her thoughts.
"Oh, it\'s a compliment. Trust me," James said. "Consider yourself lucky that Alpha Damon is your mate. If it\'s any other Alpha…" James shook his head and decided to get back to the topic they discussed. Grady, the rogue.
"When Grady met Tristan and their group, he was stupid enough to believe that rogues are good guys. He was probably so happy that he spilled everything about his life in the human city. Grady said that his mother had passed, but what about his friends? Ex-girlfriends? There are so many ways to blackmail Grady into obedience, and if you think that the blood oath will protect you, I can tell you that you are wrong because there is always a way to go around an obstacle you are aware of."
"That still doesn\'t explain how rogues can use Grady. Don\'t they need to approach him first? How will they approach him if they don\'t know where he is?" Talia asked, feeling proud of herself for thinking of this.
"And that\'s how we are getting to the point of the Wilkow sister, Varya," James said with a smug smirk like he was waiting for that question.
"What about her?" It was Cornelia who asked. She loved when James displayed his smarts.
James\' expression softened as he looked at his chocolate-colored Goddess. "No matter how much they hide Grady, they can\'t hide a Wilkow sister. Kalina and Tatiana are Lunas and too high profile. After last night\'s live stream, everyone saw Varya standing among the bridesmaids. And there were also numerous photos taken by reporters. Do you think that she can go into public and not be recognized? Once Tristan hears how a Wilkow sister was clinging onto his man, it won\'t be difficult to find Grady."
Talia\'s mood dropped at James\' words. She knew he was right, and now that he said it, it sounded logical. Why didn\'t she think of that herself?
Damon didn\'t like this. "Are you saying we must stage Grady\'s death and then hide them? Or should we ask them to wear disguises wherever they go?" If it\'s for a limited time, it would be feasible. But what if it takes forever? Damon regretted offering Grady to come to the Dark Howlers pack. Killing him would be simpler. Maybe he can make it look like an accident, preferably before Grady and Varya mate.
\'Mate won\'t approve,\' Sapa spoke into Damon\'s mind.
\'She won\'t approve only if she finds out about it.\'
\'More lies?\'
Damon was exasperated. Why was Sapa coming out only to scold him? Praise or two would be nice!
\'I have no intention of lying,\' Damon grumbled at the ancient wolf spirit. \'I am only trying to keep Talia safe. In case you missed it, the last night\'s mess was because someone wanted to get his hands on Talia, and we have no idea who that is. What do you suggest I do?\'
\'Use your position and power to solve the problem without upsetting mate,\' Sapa said sternly.
"There is another way," James said mysteriously, pulling Damon out of his mental chat with Sapa.
"What way?" Damon asked.
"Use Grady to your advantage."
Damon didn\'t get it. "We can use Grady to send misinformation, but I don\'t see how that would help. Now that we know where Tristan\'s hideout is, we can just wipe them off."
James shook his head, indicating how that was not what he meant. "It\'s obvious that a small rogue like Tristan couldn\'t be behind last night\'s attack. Someone else organized them, but Grady is too low in the hierarchy of rogues to know anything useful."
Damon thought how that makes sense, but... "Rogues don\'t keep databases we can hack into, and they don\'t share their secrets either. What can a newbie like Grady do?"
James thought for a moment before responding. "It\'s a long shot, but… if Grady could help us get to that Lisa person, he would be useful. As someone who has access to the information from your pack, she is a valuable resource to Tristan, and he will not let her leave his sight."
Damon rubbed his chin while thinking about James\' words. If Tristan won\'t leave Lisa out of his sight, the probability was high that… "Lisa should know who was behind this."
James\' eyes flashed in agreement. "If I understood the situation correctly, Lisa still belongs to your pack. Even among rogues, Tristan has a nasty reputation. He has a way with words and a short fuse. The rumors about him involve crippling people, and he doesn\'t use tools or weapons to achieve that." James lifted his fist, indicating that Tristan beats up people who disobey him. "I am confident that Lisa is not having an easy time there. You can mind-link her, but in order to make her submit, she needs to come to you. Grady is one of them, and he can help her escape Tristan."
Talia shook her head. "Even if we find a way to get Grady to cooperate, you assume that Lisa wants to escape Tristan. Lisa is a tantrum-throwing person, unable to hold back her grudges, and her mother adores her. The last thing I heard, Stephanie was happily talking about how Lisa finding her mate. Assuming that it\'s Tristan and he is mistreating Lisa, Lisa is set on hiding it, otherwise, Stephanie would go ballistic."
It was James\' turn to pause. "It doesn\'t matter if Lisa won\'t or can\'t escape her abuser. What matters is that her mother won\'t approve after finding the truth."
Talia\'s eyes widened. "You want us to use Stephanie to get Lisa out of there?"
James spread his hands, palms up. "I am only telling you that you found the information you can use to get an advantage. How will you use it, it\'s up to you. Considering Lisa\'s unique position, if I were you, I would make a solid effort in getting her out of there and into my custody."
Damon ran his hand through his hair. Many things James said made sense, but everything was risky.
"We can storm that place and extract Lisa," Damon said.
James disapproved. "If Tristan knows that Lisa was close to you, and he probably does, he will use her as a hostage. Another thing is that he will know that Lisa is a double-edged sword, and he might eliminate her at the first sign of your attack. In either case, you won\'t win."
Damon cursed under his breath. James was right. Those were rogues, and they won\'t flinch when killing.
