Alex P. O. VThe silence was erupted by my and Jess's growling stomach. "Damn I am starving from all running. I haven't eaten since morning" Jess said , holding her stomach. "Me too. I am starving as well".My eyes fell on the unopened lunch box near Cedar's arm on the table. I pointed my index finger at the box and asked" What is in that box? ".Cedar looked at where I was pointing. "Oh this is the leftovers from my parent's restaurant. They had a new Canadian dish in their menu yesterday".Willow's and Cedar's parents had owned a restaurant in the city. Their father used to be a chef in a local restaurant.After their parents found a place in the city at low price they bought the plot and started their own restaurant.Luke's parents were their business partner.I wanted to try their food but never got a chance before this. " Can I try them? I never tried anything from your parents' restaurant ".I gave my best puppy dog eyes. " I um you umm"Cedar looked troubled. Jess injected" Th
Alex P. O. V"Do you both have any classes? "I asked ."No, I don't have any more classes "Willow said. "Me neither" Jess shook her head no as we entered the college campus."Hey I need to grab a book from my locker".Willow was walking to her locker . Jass and I strolled behind her lazily. Walking past the college canteen I saw Nathan sitting at a table alone with his phone and laptop. I stopped in my tracks. He was on his laptop. "What do you stop and what are you looking at? ".She hovered over my shoulder to look at what I was looking at. When she noticed her face turned gloomy. " Why look at something which only causes - -"I cut her off. "I am not looking at him, I am looking at his phone and laptop". We were hiding behind a pillar. " What about his phone and laptop? " She asked me ,confusion was itching in her tone."I just need someone to distract him so I can get his phone".When she still did get it. Willow approached us.She looked at us weirdly. " Why are both of you hidin
Alex P. O. VI was going through the files on his PC in my room while Jess was sitting beside me on a chair watching every file along with me. "It seems like he had a collection of you taking showers". I went to the recycle bin on his computer and went through the video from the day he and Jess moved into their apartment. I was trying to find where it proved that he was the one behind all this and the camera caught him when he was removing or doing something. Most of the videos were edited. He removed himself from the video. Jess got up. "Hey I need something to drink and by the look of it, it will take sometime".I just hummed my focus on the computer screen.I knew this thing was hard for her,she was just giving excuse to leave the room.I was playing the clips and skipping them continuously. The door opened and closed. I skipped a few videos and clicked one video after reading the caption. When The video started playing it was showing their bedroom video. In the video, the door of
Alex P. O. VI was walking down the hallway putting my head down as I was going through the pictures. I didn't notice I walked straight into a wall. Where the hell this wall came from in the middle of the hallway. My phone fell on the floor. I was about to fall on the floor on my ass when a pair of arms held my waist and stopped me from falling. My arms fell on something hard. Sparks started to fly through my body. I parted my eyelids and looked up. Hazel yellow eyes were staring straight back at me. I quickly shook off the daze. Zander was holding me. Still in his arms I asked" Will you let me go or are you going to spend your rest of the day holding me like this? ".Whatever spell he was under it soon broke off.He helped me to stand up straight and retreated his hand so fast like his hands were on fire. For some reason I felt disappointed due to the distance he put between us. I shook off the feeling. "Where were you going that you didn't even see me coming? ".Before I could pick
Alex P. O. V"Do you think she might have betrayed us at the last moment? "Zander asked." If she wanted to betray you then why would she inform you about Jessa's whereabouts. What would she get from all this? She went against her mate and wanted to end up being sold in auction after going through so much?".I was still going through the file. " The warriors who found the body informed us that they found the body of Charlotte at the accident spot but her face was not recognizable. The last tire of the car ran over her face and smashed the facial bones. The face was disoriented but they found her ID near her body. They all the information and called her family ".I stopped mid typing and looked up. "Did they ever do the DNA test to find whether or not the body belonged to Charlotte James? ".I raised an eyebrow at him. " No. They didn't do any tests. The case closed as a hit and run case".Zander placed one hand on the table top and another in his slacks pocket. "Well that was their
Alex P. O. VWe send warriors all over the town and Dark Shadow pack to find any trace of Nathan but there was no sign of Nathan. Zander donated money to the city so he could easily close all the escape routes but for the last two hours there was no trace of Nathan. He might be still in town hiding somewhere or might have disguised himself and escaped. Dark Shadow pack was forced to inform us that Nathan had not visited the pack for the last month. They were not letting our warriors enter the pack at first but they could not go against royal orders and had to let our warriors enter the pack. After searching the entire pack they could not find Nathan. They asked his parents but they didn't know about his whereabouts. Jess, I and Zander went to the city to search for him. Half an hour had passed but we didn't find anything. Warriors already searched all the hotels, motals, abandoned houses, and buildings. We even searched the places where he used to bring the working girls whom he use
Alex P. O. VAfter half an hour we reached the packed house . We entered the pack house and were escorted by the warriors to the main hall room of the house. Many pack members were already present but nobody had any clue what was going on there. Jess and I walked inside and stopped in the crowd.Zander passed the crowd.Everyone bowed their heads in respect. He stopped before the crowd and faced them. Whispers were going through the crowd.Our eyes were on Zander whose body was tense. His back was straight , face was stone cold as an iceberg. Many warriors were in the room. A few behind Zander and some were at the entrance of the hall. All looked ready to fight if someone attacked out of nowhere. Daniel walked behind him and stood there in an attention position. Funny carefree guy replaced with deathly killer of royal pack's beta. I looked at Jess with a questioning look on my face. Silently asking what was going on. She just shrugged her shoulders. "Don't look at me like that. I do n
Alex P. O. VWandering near Zander's house I was thinking about the two alphas. I knew what they did was wrong , there was no forgiveness for that, destroying innocent girls' lives . Violence, blood , torture were common for werewolves but in front of the pack members . He wanted to show whoever betrays him they were going to face consequences worse than death. For him it was like nothing the way he was torturing them. Similar thing was with the pack members , nobody averted their eyes from the scene as if it was an ordinary thing to do . I did not notice that I walked behind the house while strolling around. Everything was silent. The air was still. There was a thick tension in the atmosphere . I felt a presence behind me but as I turned there was no one. I looked around, there was no sign of any living creature. While I was looking behind I felt a presence before me. I turned my head forward and was searching for the creature whose presence I felt. The suffocating tension was thin
