Chapter Sixty Eight
Venom’s POV
Maybe it was a combination of moods or the accumulation of everything that was happening with me, I was completely mindless as I sat in the midst of the elders as they deliberated on different measures to take in helping the pack.
I was losing control of the problems that were affecting us, I felt lesser than an Alpha, things weren’t looking too well for me.
“Is everything alright, Alpha Venom?” One of them asked me once he noticed my mood.
“Yes, I’m doing okay. I just have a couple other things to do. That’s all.” I told him.
He looked at me again, I was sure he didn’t want to believe, but there was nothing else he could do about the whole situation. The meeting ended and once again, everyone had to leave without a tangible solution in mind.
That was one of the biggest problems we had, the fact that we never really came to something that made progress. We had not been making any progress from any angle.
I returned back home and went in. I couldn’t find Maya in her room and I assumed that she was in the bathroom or some other place. I waited for a few minutes and when she didn’t show up after I arrived, I went in search for her.
I shouted her name all around as I walked in the house, but no one answered.
“Hey, call the remaining people for me.” I instructed one of the guards. He instantly understood that I meant his colleagues. I was surprised that I couldn’t find Maya. It wasn’t a usual occurrence.
They all came forward and I began to ask them after the other, “did anyone see Maya and where is she?” At first, I felt I was taking the issue too lightly, but I really couldn’t find her anywhere and it disturbed my mind.
I picked up a so. I could call her and reach out to her, but that didn’t go through too and that was when I realized something must have happened.
The thoughts of Alex body came to my mind and I panicked that she might have gotten killed and taken away. I ran helter skelter in the house trying to find her wherever she would be, but it was futile.
When I came out, I disbanded everyone and went to the room, I had given. Up on doing anything again, the frustration was beginning to become more than what I could hear all my life.
After a brief moment of praying to the gods in the room, I went outside and searched for a second time, but still, nothing changed and I was rejecting so much of my life choices.
I got out of the house and called for the attention of everyone so that they would search for her. I also decided to do the same thing, because there was no way I wouldn’t.
I was just totally mad that all the problems were coming one after the other.
Time passed and she still wasn’t found anywhere which surprised me even more. As I walked out of my office trying to go to the door so I could go out to search for her, I found a piece of paper on the floor.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
It was a letter she had written. Well, that was what it looked like. I read intensely and when I finished, there was no other reaction in me than to throw the piece of paper to the ground and put my palms on my face.
“Why?” I murmured. “Why!”
She wrote something about leaving to help investigate in the letters and how she would be untraceable until she returns by herself. I probably didn’t digest all of the words she kept in it, I was mad at her already for what she did.
“There’s no point in searching for her, now.” I told myself.
Disappointment and nervousnesss clouded my head. It surprised that she would just leave like that without any fore plan or maybe she had it all planned.
I paced around the house, made phone calls, nothing brought the high of the angerd down. I just couldn’t get myself to understand her decision.
Eventually, I went to my room and tried to bury myself in some work. Just paperwork from the company and any other thing I could find. I wasn’t so successful at doing something that blocked the thoughts of her off of my mind, but I did find something suspicious going on with the company.
I made a mental note to visit there and find out later.
” What’s going on!” I exclaimed again as I relaxed back in the chair. The only reason why Maya would go out to help was because she felt I wasn’t doing enough or I just wasn’t productive.
The problems were becoming too much for me to bear. I thought about finding and searching for her, but I couldn’t really trace where she could have gone to, maybe she had suspects in mind that she was trailing, I wasn’t sure.
I went to our room to scavenge for any information I might find about her recent escapade. I left the office and walked to where our room was, I realized that I had not even been in it since she left.
Inside, everything looked normal. Nothing was odd, even corners and nooks had nothing in them. Maybe I was expecting multiple posters or papers filled with written ideas, but nothing was there.
After turning everywhere upside down, I decided I would give up and stop stressing. I wasn’t making any progress towards finding anything. The room was in chaos and most of all, life was in chaos for me.
It was still a big mystery to me that she managed to do something like that and I was unaware.
“What the heck is going on!” I complained.
I left the room and went outside, there was no sense of direction for me anymore, I would just pace around, maybe worry a bit and then, complain.
