Chapter 7

  • Stephen's POV
  • "I need you both to check on Ms. Williams by both with her clothes and without her clothes.", I ordered, on which their eyes widened. At the same time, they looked at me warily like I was insane, unable to find any appropriate words to respond for a minute.
  • "But Stephan…" Nora started but shut her mouth when she earned a glare from me.
  • "I'm not doing anything wrong. I just don't trust anyone when it comes to Alpha safety, and all Ms. Williams has to do is strip in front of you both. I'm sure that's not a big deal for a werewolf."
  • "I don't have all my life to wait for this work to be done. So, what are you two waiting for? Christmas?" I asked in sarcasm. They nodded their head and got back to the work I had asked for. Once they left, I went back to Ryan's office to check the status of her phone.
  • "Did you find anything?" I asked, slamming the door wide open.
  • "Jesus, Beta! You scared me.", He said, placing his hands over his heart and acting dramatically.
  • "Is the work done?" I asked and wanted to take YES as an answer.
  • "Yes, I did, and unfortunately. I found nothing.", he responded, passing me her phone. I opened it and checked her caller history on my own but found nothing suspicious. "She has two sim cards in her phone, and I have checked the call history of both even over the internet, and just like I mentioned before, everything is crystal clear.", Ryan said. "I think you are doubting her unnecessarily.", he added.
  • So, she got a green flag from Ryan.
  • But I still believed that something was fishy, and I wouldn't rest in peace until I figured it out.
  • Because the things were too clean for my taste, sometimes, the things in front of our eyes were not dangerous, but the things hidden from our eyes were.
  • "Fine! Thanks for all the information.", I grumbled.
  • If she could sneak out of my pack to get her work done, I could do the same and in the same way, just like she did, because two could play the game. I went directly into the forensic lab, where all her cosmetics were kept and retrieved from her luggage. I grabbed the perfume bottle that could hide the smell and left it there without informing anyone where I was heading to.
  • I used that perfume and my car to reach Alpha Williams's pack. And I must say the guards on patrol were so overconfident over their smelling sense that they were barely guarding the pack border because I could see them busy with their phones. I parked the car far away from the pack and then planned to sneak inside the pack without getting caught.
  • Now, I realized how Aleena easily sneaked out of our border. I used that part as my opportunity and finally sneaked inside the pack. Thankfully, with Thunder's help since, I made my way to Alpha Williams's bedroom without getting caught.
  • 'I hope you don't get caught while doing all this. Otherwise, we will have to bear heavy punishment.', Thunder warned.
  • 'Don't worry. I know what I'm doing, and if I would have asked someone else to do this, then there was a high chance of them getting caught.', I assured him.
  • Immediately, I felt someone trying to reach me through the mind link because suddenly, I felt something bugging my mind.
  • 'Beta Stephan!'
  • 'What's it, Nora?'
  • 'We didn't find anything, Beta. Neither in her clothes nor without clothes.'
  • 'Okay.'
  • 'You better find something, Brother otherwise, no one can save you from the wrath of big brother.', This time, Nora said, more like a sister than a reporter.
  • 'I know, Nora. I know that.'
  • 'Did you find something?'
  • 'Nothing yet.'
  • 'It means your ass is in trouble,' she said in a worried tone, and I closed the mind link, focusing my mind on the work I was here for. I didn't waste time and stole Luna's phone, for which I was here in the first place.
  • I didn't stay there long after that. While I was on the way back to the pack, I felt someone was mind linking me again. I used the same path which I had used earlier to reach here.
  • 'Where are you?'
  • 'Are you that mad at me that you won't even say HELLO to your son?' I asked my mother, who was not in a pleasant mood.
  • 'Daniel is awake and is looking for you. So, come home soon.', She said angrily and closed the mind link. A part of me was happy that Daniel was gaining his consciousness now, but at the same time, I was worried about the other part because I hadn't had any solid proof against her yet. And by any chance, Daniel would get an idea about what I had done, and others would have added spices over it then, just like Nora had mentioned, 'My ass was in trouble.'
  • Immediately I felt my smell returning. Great, nothing could be more perfect than this. Otherwise, I would have to answer about it, especially Daniel.
  • I checked the time and realized that this worked for three hours.
  • 'Ryan! Where are you right now?'
  • 'Back to my office. I just met Daniel. He asked when he didn't find you among the family members.'
  • 'Yeah! I'm almost near the packhouse. By the way, did someone inform me about everything?'
  • 'Well, no one informed on their own, but when he didn't see Eva's sister, he asked about it, and Mom told everything that happened to him.'
  • So, it was not Evangeline who complained about me.
  • 'Then?'
  • 'Daniel started leaving the bed to handle the situation on his own, but he got scolded by his mate, and he returned to the bed with a scowl on his face. You should have been here. I must say, the future Luna has already a strong-headed and bossy woman.'
  • 'Well, what can I say on this? That my brother cannot be luckier.' I smiled at the thought that finally, my brother had someone in his life who cared for him unconditionally other than his family. 'Anyways, I need your help again.', I said, changing the topic.
  • 'I'm listening.'
  • *****
  • After reaching the packhouse, I first gave the phone I had stolen to him and asked him to unlock it; along with that, get the call history checked on her number.
  • If Alpha Williams never shared Eva's real identity with both her mate and his real daughter, then I was sure that something would be off about them, or there could be even the slightest trust issue between them; otherwise, why wouldn't a mate would hide anything from the other one? That too for all this year?
  • "Did you just steal the phone of…"
  • "Shut up! And get back to work, quick. And yes! Make sure that no one would able to track this number."
  • "Why do you always ask me to do something I can fall in trouble with later?"
  • "Don't worry if anything goes wrong. I will take the blame. Now, just get this work done, and by that time, I'm going to meet Alpha."
  • He sighed and nodded his head.
