MARCUS P.O.V Now we had another enemy on our trail. It was even terrible because he was not an outsider but it was a memento member of my pack, and someone we considered family."I'm sorry for that. My brother can be anything but I don't think he is capable of taking the life of anyone," Katherine apologized on behalf of Kalvin."That is no longer the brother you know," I said to Katherine as she gave me an uncertain look. "He has killed someone and he meant what he said." "That can't be true," Katherine replied instantly. "I saw his eyes, Katherine. They were blue instead of gold. The funny thing about werewolves is that you can tell if this had killed someone before or not. The eyes of the innocent ones are always gold but when they take a life their eyes turn blue," I said."No, that can't be true," Katherine said, shaking her head in disbelief. I could smell fear engulf her. I knew that she was afraid of starting a war with her own brother."No one is blaming your brother for w
MARCUS P.O.V The reason Mark called for a police artist was obvious. He needed a sketch of the beast the witness saw. If the witness gives an accurate sketch then that would be another big win for the cops, however it's unfortunate that the witness has no idea how much trouble he was getting himself into.Werewolves are eager to execute anyone who they consider a threat and it didn’t matter whether their victim was still a threat or not. "Oh, and look who we have here…. Marcus Dominick," I turned to see who raised the alarm and unfortunately it was Sharma Atluri, the Detective from India. His cheerful smile creeped me out. I didn’t know if his greeting was a sign of peace or if he was only another opportunity for new discovery. The last time we had a conversation, it didn't end well.I still recall the words and his suspicions that the culprit of these crimes could also be part of the investigation. That was a clear message to me and I wonder if he had found anything yet."Marcus,
MARCUS P.O.VFear gripped me at the thought of what would happen If Eddie knew that I was a werewolf. If he finds out that the fate he fought so hard to free his daughter from found its way to her despite how hard he tried to stop it, he would be furious or perhaps worse.From my observation, It was clear that the old man wasn't fine. His actions showed that something was bothering him. It's one thing to know that you were deceived but it's another thing when you find out that the person who played you was someone you trust so much.I am suspicious but I am not certain if my suspicions are true. If Eddie knew that I had deceived him, he would never talk to me nor would he have allowed me to glance at the sketched work he got from the witness. I don't think he is trying to hold back and even if he is, it is only a matter of minutes before the truth comes out. I don't think Eddie can hold grudges for too long."Marcus," The sudden call startled me as I turned around to see Atluri."What
MARCUS P.O.V'What are you going to ask her, Atluri?' I thought to myself with my eyes on him. I also hated that Margaret's daughter was taken away from her, I also wanted to stop everything that was going on but I was scared for my life and especially that of Alicia and our son Maxwell. I can't let them hurt my family. I must save my family at all cost even if it means putting my life at stake. "From the previous information you gave me, you said that your daughter was seventeen years old, you also mentioned that she just graduated from high-school here in the city," Atluri asked, taking his gaze off his jotter to her. "Yes, that is correct," Margaret answered."Good," Atluri heaved a sigh then continued. "You also mentioned that after you and your husband got divorced she has spent all her time with you since you and your husband had never been in touch for many years now. Is that correct?" "Yes," She replied."This is means that you must know he pretty well," "Yes, I know my d
ALICIA P.O.V I was seated inside my room with my child when I heard the sound of my doorbell. I knew that Marcus stopped by earlier but there was no reason for him to ring the doorbell since he has a key to the house.Flynn and Rina would not be the ones either, neither could it be Katherine. I gently placed my child on the bed then headed downstairs. I approached the CCTV camera and on the screen I saw a young man who looked like he was in his thirties. He looked decent but I was sure I have never seen that face before not to speak of the fact that he looked indian. I was greeted by his cheerful smile as soon as I opened the door. "Good day sir, how may I help you?" I asked."Hello, my name is Sharma Atluri, I am a Detective who works with the sheriff Mark. I believe that you are Alicia Lindsey, the only daughter of Eddie Lindsey," He said."Yes, I am," I replied."I knew I was right. You look so much like your father," He said. "May I come in?" "Sure," I said, making way for hi
MARCUS P.O.V 'I'm sure he must be somewhere around here?" I said to myself while gazing around the woods. I glanced at my phone again then lifted my eyes forward to the spot the GPS displayed that Silas was standing.The woods didn't seem complicated. The grasses were low and there were no bushes. Trees were the only things that seemed much in the area so if he was here then I should have spotted him by now.Before now I doubted that Silas would set me up but now that I have arrived at the scene I think otherwise. What exactly could he be thinking?I couldn’t get the scent of a vampire or werewolf. I listened but there was also no suspicious sound. Everything I could hear was nature singing In my ears.I walked down to the exact spot the GPS signal pointed. I waited but there was still no sign of any living mammal.I stooped low, gently taking off the grass beneath my feet and there I found a cell phone. At the sight of the phone I knew that I had been tricked.My ears caught crunchy
ALICIA P.O.V It's been hours now since Atluri left the house but until now Marcus hasn't returned any of my calls. Everyone else was back except for Katherine. However I didn’t tell them that Atluri stopped by."Where are you Marcus?" I whispered. I walked downstairs to the sitting room and while making my way to the sofa chair, I felt the vibration of my phone.I checked and It was Eddie so I answered the call."Hello Dad," I said."Hello Alicia, how are you doing?" he asked."I'm okay," I replied."Sorry I missed your calls. I had a lot of engagement here. was there something you wanted to tell me?" He asked."Nothing serious, I just wanted to know how Marcus is doing. I've also been trying to reach him but he has not been answering my phone calls," I replied."Are you serious? It's been hours now since he left the police station," he replied. "Didn’t he stop by?" "He did," I replied. "Don't worry about it, I'm sure he will be back soon."I hung up immediately after my comment as I
MARCUS P.O.V"No way, this can't be," I whispered to myself with my eyes on Flynn. I couldn’t believe that I have just lost the most powerful pack member I have. How did this happen? Alicia also had the same look on her eyes. I could tell that none of us expected it to happen. Could it be that Flynn doesn't know what he has done?'No,' I thought, wagging my head slightly. His posture and looks was clear evidence that he knew perfectly well that he would become an Alpha if he slays the pack leader.I walked up to Flynn who was standing before the Alpha’s seat. "What have you done?" I asked. I glanced at the head of the dead Alpha and back again at him. "Flynn, do you know what this means?" "Yes, I do," He replied. "I am now an Alpha," He replied.I threw a punch at him immediately after his comment. The pack were about to attack but he stopped them."Why did you do that?" he asked. He spat the blood from his wound as he looked at me."You are a member of my pack. You were one of us
