ALPHA ROMAN’S POV
” There was someone else in the mansion that night?” Vincent was shocked just like I was when I first found out.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
I wasn’t the only black wolf in the mansion that night. I had no idea what this meant but it was obvious my father’s death wasn’t one I could take the blame for. It seemed there was more to their death and Frank was a suspect.
But the frank I knew wouldn’t do it alone.” Do you think Frank had something to do with it?” That was exactly what I have been thinking since we left the old mansion and if Frank indeed knew something about that night then he was certainly not alone in it
.” Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Vincent asked and I chuckled. ” I can’t believe you are this calm after finding out you are not the one who killed your father.” I didn’t know how to react to this either, I was only calmer from the outside. Deep down I wanted to know who that black wolf was but that would mean putting Bella in danger.
” It seems my father’s death was a conspiracy,” I said, more than one persons were involved. ” Why do you think they pinned it on you?” Vincent asked and I stared up at him.” I’m not entirely innocent, Vincent.”
” What does that mean?” Vincent was the closest to me, Zackery was there too. ” The first wolf she saw had blood on the mouth. I saw how terrified she got when she saw it.”
” So you think that was your wolf?”
” it could be” I replied.
” Well, that is a very complicated puzzle. We need to know more especially which one was your wolf and then we will begin the investigation from there.” Vincent made a clear statement but there was no way I was taking her back there.” I’m not taking her back there.” I said, firmly. just like Madeline said, the burden of the past could stop her life cycle and that means something worse.
” Bella must stay away from the old mansion.” I ordered in a clear tone but Vincent didn’t seem to understand what I meant all I needed him to do was make sure to enforce this.
The dark past in that building could swallow her completely, a lot seemed to have happened in that building, things none of us knew about. I shouldn’t have taken her there in the first place.
She has been sleeping for the past five hours without any sign of her waking up. And that fucking scares me, replaying the past is the most dangerous magic to get involved with.
” I know you are worried about her but if we get to the root of this then we have to identify you among the two wolves ” I understand what he wanted to do but my mate was in the fucking picture! If burying the past meant saving her life, then so be it.
” What if I was the one who entered second?” it was possible. I have long accepted this fate so there was no need to fight it now, especially when my mate’s life was threatened.
” Use the information I have given you or let it go.” I sat from my seat. Taking Bella to that old mansion was nothing but a mistake, if anything happened to Bella. I wouldn’t be able to make it through life.
Her existence in my life filled the space and the dead cells that have been dead for years. Seeing her face every day meant life for me, giving me hope that never existed for me. Her beautiful face was the only thing for me in life.
I didn’t know how my life would fucking be without her.
After years of being alone, I finally found someone, someone that was made for only me. Someone that I happily call my own, someone who questions my actions and decisions without fear.
It might sound weird but Bella was the first to call me a beast to my face, first to make me bend my own rules.
” Alpha Thomas requested a meeting with you.” Vincent chipped in a different topic.” He is an interesting man but I think there is more to the reason why he wants an alliance with us, maybe you will find out during your meeting with him.”
” Tell him I won’t make it.” I wasn’t leaving the pack until Bella woke up. ” I will do just that.” he shrugged.
I left my office to the packhouse specifically the alpha wing.” Alpha Roman.” I shut the door behind me. “Anything new?” I asked but she shook her head regretfully. “I’m getting scared,” Madeline said and I frowned.
” She might not wake up.” My eyes turned colder as I stared down at Madeline. ” The past is a deep place to visit. Her powers haven’t fully registered yet, she still has a lot to wait for.” Have I ever mentioned that Madeline was a healing demon? Every demon has its specialty, their world was different from ours. Everyone is different from the other except one that shares the same abilities.
Even, my half-blood didn’t stop me from inheriting these abilities.
” What do you mean?”
” She is the first that has appeared in centuries.” I saw that in the books I read. I was well aware of her kind,” she may be a little dangerous but they come with dark forces that wanted nothing other than feed on her powers. She is no longer safe anywhere.” my eyes snapped up when the growling sound caught my attention.
The shining beautiful wolf was walking majestically down the stairs. Her black eyes stared at me, I didn’t know what was going on but I was glad she was awake but that only lasted for a few seconds as she collapsed right after the stairs, shifting into form.
” Bella.” My voice ran out in terror. ” Roman..” her face looked pale, I immediately took off my jacket to cover her up. ” He took her..”
” Come on don’t close your eyes on me, please Bella, stay with me.” I rushed upstairs carrying her in my arms. I was almost in tears. The feeling of seeing her like this was tearing my chest apart. ” Bella please stay with me!” I pleaded as her eyes started closing again. ” Bella!” My pleading voice boomed across the room, my knees touching the cold floor in from of it “It was my fucking fault “My fingers tightened around her hand.
Her pale sleeping face leaves me in regret. I wished I never sent her to the old mansion. What the fuck have I done!
What the fuck was I thinking when I took her there?
What now?
‘ Get Carolina, I need her in my wing now!.’ I ordered, my eyes turning a shade of red. Losing Bella would mean the end of the world to me, she was everything I didn’t have when I first met her.
” Roman, Dr Carolina is here.” Zackery arrived in the room a few minutes later.
” Bring her in.” My face was facing the window, my hands caged in the pocket of my black pants. ” Alpha Roman.” I didn’t turn upon hearing her voice. ” There she is, I will expect the best result from you,” I told her before walking out of the room in coldness.
” You took her to the old mansion.” Zackery didn’t seem happy with the situation and his question made me angrier, the feeling of jealousy prink my fucking chest but I didn’t let it get the best of me. ” I hope she gets better soon.” He said before walking out of the living room.” She is everything your mother will have been proud of.” Madeline said and I couldn’t agree less with her.
” For you, she will come back to us.” I hope she would.
” I will be in my office.” I strode out with my face void of any emotion, my heart laying coldly in my chest. I couldn’t feel anything, I didn’t know how to react to this pain in my chest aside keep my mouth shut and my eyes closed.
” Roman.” I came face-to-face with Vincent in front of the packhouse. ” Two beastly creatures were spotted looming at the borders.” He said and I raised a brow. ” How is that possible?” I asked and Vincent stepped aside, obviously didn’t have an answer to my question.
With Vincent behind me, we got to the borders and indeed there were two unfriendly animals leaking the borders of the Turner pack.
I didn’t know what it meant but I had a feeling it had something to do with Bella’s wolf. Their harmless steps raised questions in my head as I stared at them from the cliff. ” What do you think?” Zackery came upon hearing the news.” Keep an eye on them for now.” I ordered.
” Do you believe they are associated with her wolf?” I was thinking exactly. The strange part was, they weren’t even attempting to cross our border.
” We will know soon enough,” I said, their beastly nature and calm appearance only resembled an ancient guard.
I may be fucking wrong but something was up. Their predator eyes and cross-movement were like that of a patrol warrior. “It seems to me they are guarding our border,” Zackery said.
‘ Alpha Roman, there are two strange creatures at the southern border.’ A mind link came in from the warriors patrolling the south border and I turned my head to look at Zackery.
