"She hates me." I breathed out, I can still recall the way her eyes stared at me, the way she felt betrayed, she could not believe it, I was stupid for even listening to Ares, I should not have done that, I should have done what I wanted to do.
"She did this, just because she cried and she looks like that, it doesn’t mean anything."
"You hate her Ares, even your word says the same, you never wanted her to be here, what is her motive? Why would she even do this, for a husband who betrayed her?"
"She could still be in love with him and she has been married to him for five years, a man like that knows how to make her listen." Ares spoke and I ignored his words
I should have thought about it before doing this, before talking to her like that; she is my Olivia. She is my mate, even my wolf is certain of the fact that she would do something to me.
"I am sorry Alpha." Ares spoke.
"You should be for speaking about her that way." I breathed out.
I woke up this morning to find out the word is out, they know that their Alpha has a curse, and no one wants an Alpha that can’t control his wolf, an Alpha that can’t even control his actions but with a few calls, I was able to contain it before it spreads.
"Aria tried to come into the room that day, it’s possible she saw something, she may have listened in on our conversation more than we thought she did," I spoke.
She is a better suspect.
"Even if she did, she never called Conrad, she lost her phone when she got kidnapped, and it’s not even with her." He explained. "Olivia is the culprit and you know what has to be done."
"No one will touch her, you touch her and you will burn and, you come close to her and that would be it for you, you will die by my hands, no one will hear of this, focus on finding the person that has been tormenting this house, it’s fucking possible that he is the person that told Conrad about it, that tunnel, it leads to my office, maybe he heard something, maybe he saw something, and the call, I need to know what they talked about, I know you want it to be Olivia and it also makes you a suspect, how far would you go to make sure that my mate and I are not together," I asked and his eyes widened.
"She is coming between you and your pack and if you think I would betray the pack, betray you because of her then you are wrong, we have worked together for years, our fathers have worked together for years and so has any generation, I care about you even if you don’t see that and if she is right, if she didn’t do this, I sure apologize to her even if it means saying it in the presence of the whole pack to see." He spoke and I nodded
I need to make sure that she didn’t do it, not for her but for me because I can’t handle the idea or the fact that it is going to hurt me even more if she had anything to do with this, it would shatter me that she didn’t come to me; she went behind my back.
My mind filled with questions and I didn’t know what to do, all I had to do was wait; what was the right time, what for the right answers, and wait to speak to her?
"Leave Ares." I breathed out, I looked away from him, the memory of the way she looked at me flashed through my head and my eyes filled with anger, I need to find this intruder, I need to find out what he is up to, I need to find out what he has done, and what he could do.
This rumor can ruin my life and how long before I can contain it, how long before I can make sure that no one ever finds out about it, my father always said, You can’t hide something for so long before someone will find out eventually and I am not ready
I could not bring myself to see her, I was scared, I didn’t know what to say, I stayed in my office waiting for answers for hours and it’s as already seven in the evening, I knew I had to find her eventually, I had to talk to her eventually.
I headed into my room and she was nowhere in sight, I glanced across the area and I walked some the bathroom and she was not there, maybe she went into another room.
She would not want to be here after everything that happened, I rushed into the other room and she was not there.
"Where is Olivia?" I asked one of the guards.
"I have not seen her." He spoke and I rolled my eyes at him. I can’t let anger get the best of me, I have to be calm, maybe she is fine, she had to be firm; the house is filled with guards and so are the tunnels, there is no other way inside the rooms apart from the tunnels.
"Find her." I breathed out, I headed up to the third floor, I had a feeling she would be in the room asking for more questions, trying to snoop around even though I didn’t want her to.
I glanced across the area when I walked into the room, I had not been here for years, when they died I hadn’t moved here, this was the only floor that didn’t catch fire, I turned on the lights and I walked further in.
I found a piece of her clothes on the ground and my breath hitches.
I felt my wolf not being able to locate her, he should be able to, she is his mate, yet he could not, no matter how much he tried, he was not able to find her, it meant one thing. She is either unconscious, or she is not here.
Either way, it didn’t sound good, either way I didn’t like it.
I raced out of the room and into one of the tunnels.
"Find her," I yelled to my guard without any explanation, I needed to know where she was, I needed to know what was going on, she would not leave, she would not pick up and leave because I yelled at her.
I know she is smart and she knows the type of danger we are in, she watched her parents die and she knows if she is out of the house, I may not be able to find her.
I reached toward the further end of the tunnel when my work stopped me, I could feel her scent even more here, she was here, I looked around, hoping to find something that belonged to her and I didn’t.
I realized someone took her right under our noses and I have a feeling he didn’t work alone he worked with someone.
I felt my heart beating against my chest as I reached out of the house, my legs shifting into an unusual form when my skin got replaced with fur, my eyes filled with more tears as I let out a growl and I ran out of the house.
Trying to find her, trying to leave where her scent got stronger.
"Someone here took Olivia." I breathed out, it’s been an hour and I can’t find her, the only place I could feel her scent is the tunnel, she would not leave and Ares knows better than to even suggest something as stupid as that.
"Alpha- I didn’t ask any of you to speak." I gritted my teeth, there are cameras in the tunnel and I am just waiting for the footage, each man would be here, so I glanced at them, they stood with authority
The monster that has been theorizing is here and he is staring at me, I just don’t know who
"I carefully crafted every plan and I made sure that the house is safe, this should be one of the safes place in the whole city yet she was taken, I understand that neither of you like her to be honest, what you feel does not matter to me but if she is gone, if she is hurt then so I am, I am connected to her in many ways and if I fall so do all of you." I breathed out.
I glanced at each one of them when I got a ping from my phone, the footage is here, I stared at it for a second, making sure to turn off the noise when I saw him.
I know who the traitor is.
