Chapter 80 Convincing Lorenzo

• Maxwell’s POV
• It was so fucking hard to convince Lorenzo to go on this mission with me. Now I know why he has never lost a battle, he is too careful, or should I say too paranoid. Like me, he does his homework before embarking on any mission. But I make an exception to some mission, I take drastic action and I make hasty decisions if the mission calls for it. But Lorenzo never does that, he is more of a perfectionist, and if it was up to him, he would rather wait for our guys to do their thorough investigation before jumping to make any decision. He still doesn’t trust the information that I got from Declan. He wants to send his own guys to go over there first and see if the information checks out, but that would be a terrible idea because they would never get anywhere close to King Ashfords Palace before they are taken out by the lycan warriors that are swarming the premises. Besides, that would only give us out to king Ashford because he would know that we are coming and he may kill Stephanie faster than he intended to.
• “This is the only way Lorenzo, we need to assume that king Ashford already knows about all our plans. We can’t send spies to his palace, he would kill her and he will speed up his plans and execute my boys in his dungeon. This is a move he will never have anticipated and it will slow him down a bit and buy us some time to get to Stephanie and get her out alive. This is the reason I came to seek you out, this is how we can put an end to this bastard, end this war and save our families. This is it man, it’s either you are in this or your not. You are either with us or against us, it’s all up to you to make the right decision. But before you make that decision, I want you to know that I can’t do this without your help, I need you on board man, we all need you. But I’ll understand if you don’t want to risk your life for us, I’ll totally understand, but I’m not going to back down. We are leaving in the morning. We would have left tonight, but I need to make some arrangements with my guys so they can extract us on time. We don’t want to go in there without backup, you know. I know it’s asking for too much, but I really hope you change your mind.” I told him calmly, earning scoff as he ignored me and pretended to be busy with his laptop.
