ALPHA JUDE'S INVASION

"What do we do, Dad?' I ask him, shuddering. Mum is shuddering too while Dad's jaw is moving up and down.

"Dylan, we need you right here." Karl orders through mindlink. I and mum hear that.

"Yes, I'll be right there." Dad faces mum and mum nods.

"Yes, you can do it." Mum says to him, and hugs him. Dad opens the door at once and goes out. He comes inside again, almost immediately, and asks mum for her attention.

"Your attention will be needed there. Once I mindlink you, please respond and come on time. Okay?" He rushes the word out of his mouth.

"Dad, you'll be fine." I tell him, and he whispers thank you.

He opens the door, and shifts right in front of the sitting room. He shifts just so briskly, and darts in the southern direction, to the penthouse.

DYLAN'S POV

Duke gives me control immediately I enter the penthouse by the rear door.

"Greg, I'm here." I mindlink Greg once I reach there.

"To the Lord's throne." He forces a reply.
