Ethan’s pov

I never knew that I could be confined to a space, although right from birth, I had been in the palace grounds, I had been enjoying myself in the palace grounds not working my ass out

I was not a good strategy thinker, and because of the position, I had to enter the library to learn now more about the different strategies and the formations needed.

I did not go into the library as the ruling Alpha who wanted to oversee the progress of the library but I went into the library as one who was ready to learn.

I knew that I could not face the members of the pack if I entered with my regalia, I removed the regalia and wore a black trouser and a white shirt.

The shirt was not buttoned to the end as the collar of my shirt was unbuttoned exposing my bare chest.

I wore a mask and entered the library, I looked around and saw that no one recognized me, heaving a sigh of relief, I went into the war section and brought out a book that says

“Introduction to strategy and strategy thinking”

The title sounded compelling as I opened the book and began to read

“A general plan to attain one or more long-term or overall goals under unknown circumstances is called a strategy.

The term “art of the general” first appeared in Eastern Roman terminology in the sixth century C. E. and was only translated into Western vernacular languages in the eighteenth century.

It encompassed several subsets of talents such as military tactics, siegecraft, logistics, military strategy, etc.

The term “strategy” came to mean “a comprehensive way to try to pursue political ends, including the threat or actual use of force, in a dialectic of wills” in a military battle between two enemies from that point until the 20th century.

The fact that there are typically few resources available to accomplish goals makes strategy crucial.

In general, strategy entails prioritizing and establishing objectives, choosing the course of action to take, and allocating resources to carry out the plan of action.

A strategy explains how the means (resources) will be used to attain the ends (goals). A strategy may be predetermined or may develop when an organization adjusts to its surroundings or faces competition.

It includes things like thinking strategically and planning strategically.

These are the different categories of strategies.

Military Strategy

A military organization’s use of ideas to achieve specific strategic objectives is known as military strategy.

The term “strategic,” which comes from the Greek word “strategos,” was first used in the 18th century to refer to the “art of the general” or “the art of arrangement” of troops.

It covered the organization and execution of campaigns, the movement and deployment of forces, and the enemy’s deception.

In contrast to operations and tactics, strategy refers to the use of all of a country’s military power through long-term, high-level planning, development, and acquisition to ensure victory or security.

The art of operations and tactics involves arranging troops on or close to the battlefield to accomplish goals as a component of a larger military plan.

The preparation and conduct of a conflict between groups of armed opponents is known as military strategy. It is a branch of warfare and the main means of defending the interests of the packs.

Using military resources-people, gear, and information-against the opponent’s resources to establish superiority or weaken the latter’s resolve to fight is known as military strategy.

Military theory defines strategy as “the utilization during both peace and war, of all of the nation’s forces, through large scale, long-range planning and development, to ensure security and victory

Similar to the idea of strategic planning, strategy is a planned course of action intended to accomplish a specific set of goals.

Pattern as strategy: a strategy that is realized gradually rather than intentionally or planned; it is a consistent pattern of past behavior.

He described the strategy as emergent when the realized pattern deviated from the intended one.”

I looked at the pages and yawned, I was not a lover of books in the first place, it looked like it was used both in ancient times and in our present time.

I wondered about the one who had introduced it, what was he thinking?? I knew that if Sophia had been here she would have laughed. This experience always amuses her

I left the library in disguise as I pondered on the current situation, I was the only ruling Alpha who did know any history, and I did not know the history of my pack nor did I know the history of the outside world.

I sighed as I went inside the palace, I went to the throne room and I met a pile of documents waiting for me, “can this ever end?” I wondered.

I noticed the presence of my Beta as I sighed out, the presence of my Beta spells out bad news. My deep emotionless eyes gazed at him as he bowed his head down.

I scoffed, the “bowing heads down” was beginning to wear me out, I know that I’m the ruling Alpha no doubt but the reaction that is generated from them is more of a formal setting than an informal setting.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

The responsibility was heavily placed on my shoulders, and I needed someone to help me take care of the burden.

I thought about it and knew that I had to develop a strong relationship with my Beta, I knew the other one betrayed me because of the relationship I had with him then which made me develop a sort of distrust for the present beta.

I knew that there was room for second chances but I don’t give out second chances like that, I’m a calculative Alpha, although I’m a novice when it comes to the history of the pack doesn’t mean that I had no brains.

I discovered a new trait in me that I never knew existed – a manipulative wolf.
