Pups

LEOS NOV

Dor of the men had lifted her ups from the floor and began to scurry away

I followed them in light footsteps

“Hurry up, will you” One of the man said as they rushed towards the car that was parked and ready to move

“Stop” 1 commanded and they all obeyed

“Who are you? And who do you work for?” I asked, but in a blink of an eye, they all jumped into the car and

zoomed of, except for the one who had Raquel in his arms. There was no way he would have been fast enough

to jump in with additional weight in his hand

Seeing that there was no escape f

for him, he dropped Raquel to the ground and pose for a combat

I laughed at his foolishness, but I wasn’t going to stoop so low as to combating with a lackey

“Who do you work for?” I asked again

That you would never know” He responded

“Oh? Well, that’s what they always say. But at the end of the day, they pour all the secrets, both the relevant and

the irrelevant. So I ask again. Who do you work for? The guy smiled and the next minute he was running

I called on the attention of Cade, and asked him to take Raquel inside while I went after the perpetrator

I to other ordinary werewolves, he was super fast But of course, still no matela to me

Compared to

When I caught up to him, he was Panting really hard

“Must have put in all your energy on that one huh?” I asked mockingly and he fell on his knees

Who do you work for! I asked for the third time that night. It was usually something I didn’t do, but I guess

he was lucky

“You will never hear it from but there is something else you should definitely know. Who I work for is

someone close to you. Someone you trust wholeheartedly Someone you would never expect He is someone

from your inner circle of friends. Watch your back” With those words, he pulled out a short knife from his boot and sliced his own throat

I stood there for a moment, his words recurring in my head. Someoor I trust? Someone I don’t expect? From

my inner circle of friends

Here I was thinking my dad must have been behind it. Turns out I had another enemy.

The next morning. Raquel got up, checked on the boys and found out they were fine, then she turned to me and began throwing tantrums

The bullets were not meant to kill, they only contained substances which the lab technicians were trying to

Uncover

1 had a meeting with my inner circle of friends. They are people I trusted the most in the entire world. I was

very disheartened when I discovered that One of them was out to get me. I, we needed to discuss and I also

needed to find out who the betrayer was

“What are you doing here?” Andrew came into the room uninvited

“Theard that a meeting was going on here, so I decided to join in He responded

1 specifically gave invites to the people I wanted here and you are not part of them I shot. He didn’t care

Theard about the incident that happened last night. Someone made an attempt on Raquel, your Luna. I

remember telling you that her safety and that of the boys is the only thing I came back here” He explained and i

rolled my eyes

“And 1 also remembered telling you that you shouldn’t worry because I have everything under control Came My response

“Let me help you brother.”

“I do not need your help Andrew. I’ve been doing time and good for myself all these years in your absence. I have solved issues, protected the one I loved from harm, protected my pack from intruders and many more. I do not need you to help me because I can do it all on my own. Don’t you get that?” He lowered his head and sighed All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“I understand that you’re mad and still upset that I never s

showed up. but

this war is

war is against father, you can’t do

it alone. You can’t protect the whole pack, and at the same time protect your family, you can’t do it all alone

because y

you can’t be everywhere at the same time” One thing about Andrew was that if he is determined to get something done, he never quit. Though we didn’t live together for long, I knew some of his characteristics and

seems like most of it didn’t change

Leo Cade called and I turned to his direction

“He is right. You need a helping hand. You can’t figure it out all on your own” He was right. I agreed to let him

make himself useful, but that didn’t mean I had forgiven him or anything

I was only using him to my advantage

In my circle of friends, we were four of us. My beta. The chief guard.

and Simone, my gamma

but thinking deeply, I figured

od that it would be no other but Raymond, the chief

Now I had a hard time trusting any one of them, I didn’t know who the traitor was and it was killing me inside,

f guard

“Last night there was an attack on il

on the me, and obviously, the aim was to kidnap my mate” I started and they all nodded, indicating that they were following

“But what I don’t understand is how that is possible My chamber is the mo

most heavily guarded building in this

pack. How did they get past all those guards till they got to my bedroom they made lots of noise when they ran, when they shot and all, but no one, no one seemed to have miraculously not heard any of it” I continued, and they all stared at each other. I guess their minds were already thinking about what I was trying to insinuate “So you’re saying, they got help from someone on the inside? Simone asked and I nodded

As a matter of fact, I a danking someone who is in charge of the guardy I said and Raymond creased his brows

“What?” He exclaimed and I nodded, staring at him in a challenging manner. My eyes were saying. I got you‘

“That is a direct allegation, which is based on a theory, that is definitely not true Raymond said, trying to defend

“That is the only logical thing here” countered

“Oh that is what the person behind this wants you to think That came from Andrew

“What do you mean” We all asked in chorus.

“Whoever did is, of course would be an insider, who knows the in and out of the whole building so it would be

easy to bypass the guards And you should know that there are technological equipments that can target a

specific person or group of persons. So it is likely that…

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get the point. But 1 caught one of them, and he said he worked for someone in my inner

circle of friends, someone that I mist wholeheartedly

“You’re L

taking the word of a total stranger agams the trust of your own friends?” Cade who had been quiet all

the while asked. I could hear the hurt and disappointment in his voice

“What was I supposed to do! Just write it off as a mere accusation? What if it turned out to be true?” I said in

my defense

“You should trust us, we’re your friends and we’ve been together for as long as I can remember, we’ve been ny

your side through thick and thin, but the moment someone said he worked for one of us, you believed him”

Cade continued

“If you were in my shoes, what would you have done! A lot of people have been betrayed by their friends. So 1

had to take caution” I continued in

my defense

“Aren’t you forgetting something!” Andrew asked

“What?”

“Dad” He simply said and my eyes shined with realization

“Crap” I muttered
