ORION.
He gestured to me with the side of his head to look up and read what was written up there. That’s when I saw it. I couldn’t go in because I wasn’t one of them even though I was an Alpha from another Pack.
“I know…” I replied, “but she’s very dangerous, the woman that just walked through this door. You must allow me to catch her and report her to the Alpha or she will carry out what she’s here to achieve. I’m sure you don’t want that to happen. A lot of people will die, and I doubt your Alpha will be safe. You have to believe me.” I pleaded.
The guard’s brows clenched as he looked at me with something that looked like amusement. Well, I wanted to let him know that I wasn’t here to amuse anybody. I was here to tell them the truth or the Pack would fall. He replied me.
“Can you clearly state your reason?” He said, and I wondered if what I just said wasn’t clear enough. Why did it seem as if he was trying so hard to make me annoyed at a very crucial moment. I peered into the little space between the doors and saw her turn into a corner.
If I insisted on following, they would stop me and ask me to get out. I had to be very careful with this and also make sure I employed diplomacy. These guards would be hard, considering the instruction that would have been given to them.
“OK,” I said, wondering how my explanation wasn’t clear enough. “I need to stop someone and she’s one of the maids.” I said, admiring her genius for choosing a shitty job like that.
She wouldn’t be suspected by the Alpha because she was just a maid and it would give her the time to get closer and closer to the Packhouse before they found out what was happening. She wasn’t a fool and had done a very good job at hiding her identity but this wasn’t the end. The second guard who still looked grave seemed to have listened to what I said.
His eyes widened with concern as he replied. “In that case, you need to speak with the head maid. Her name is Emily and any issues concerning the maids are first taken to her. She gives the go-ahead in every situation. If she won’t let you in, then there is no way you’re getting getting this door.” The man replied with no atom of kindness in his voice.
I just shook my head.
“But it’s late. She might not be awake.”
“What else do you want me to do?” I asked, hoping he would come with a better answer and save me the stress but he replied.
“If it’s too late and you’re afraid she won’t be able to tell you anything, then you wait till tomorrow. Her office opens at nine but she will be around at eight to make sure every maid comes to work.” The guard replied again, making my hope dampen again every now and then. I was shocked and confused and hurt at the same time.
Why was everything just annoying and why were the guards refusing to help me at all. Was it because of how I was dressed, I Iooked down and knew I was dressed just fine.
“You know what I can do if you don’t let me in right now? I’ll have you both sacked!” I threatened the both of them but they didn’t seem to have felt anything. In fact, one of them scoffed.
“We know that you’re an Alpha, but we insist. Things must be done the right way. Why were they so brave? I asked before replying.
“Then take me to her.” I commanded. One of them took the road and I followed, gritting my teeth in pure anger. We didn’t stop until we had gotten to her office. She was already done with the days work and was just about to leave but my presence made her stop immediately. I didn’t want to put more fear on her by releasing my Alpha aura.
As long as she was going going help me, then we were not going to have any problems, u like the guards who wanted me to go through heaven and hell before they allowed me in. She cocked her head to the side as soon as she saw me.
“Hey, I’ve seen you somewh-” I cut her off immediately.
“Yes, you might. Are you Emily?” She nodded, looking so alarmed.
“Well, I need your help right now.” I spoke with haste. She nodded and replied.
“What kind of help?” “I know this might sound crazy but you must trust me. You have a sworn enemy in your Pack and she seems to be one of the maids. I saw her this evening while I was speaking with the Alpha but I didn’t say anything because I wanted to confirm that she was the one I saw.
Something must be done about it or she will bring this Pack to ruins. She’s on a mission to figure out what the Alpha is planning for the war against the Black Moon Pack and I think she already has the answer.” I replied. She looked so confused like I was saying something out of a dream.
“Uum… and how did you know her?” She asked. “She is my Pack member. I recognised her instantly.” I replied. A nervous look came down on her face instantly and she replied.
“You don’t expect me to agree to this, because there are guards in every inch of the Pack and they do their jobs perfectly. There is no way anyone would have done anything like that.” She said. I was about to reply when the guard spoke up.
“Mrs. Emily, sorry for interrupting, but three guards have passed out today.” “And today was the day of the meeting.” I added, making it clearer to her that there was a sinister force at play here.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
She bit her lip as if it was very hard for her to just accept the fact that something was wrong. She shook her head.
“I don’t know what to do. You’re not a Pack member here, so-” I facepalmed. “Then get ready to have your Alpha killed!”
