Chapter 0163
Sighing I lean back against the bed. Like I said, this is the worst news, and I hate it. Nothing good has happened since we got here, and I was starting to wonder if this pack was really under a real curse, because it just doesn't make sense why I've only been receiving bad news since I got here.
"Did they say anything else?" I asked, feeling the pounding of my head increase.
Where was the damn nurse? Didn't the doctor say she would be here in a minute or so? My hand was killing me.
I like the way humans portray us in their novels as these invincible creatures who are only defeated by death, but let's be real. We are not invincible, and we do feel pain. It's a bitch.
"Nothing," Alec answered, pulling me back to the present. "They said they were doing some investigation, and it was confidential until they heard our side of the story. I told them we couldn't come in because you were hurt, so they suggested coming to us."This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
I was never afraid of human cops. They were easy to fool because most of them were lazy and didn't really want to get involved in cases. Especially if it is complex. Look at how many people go missing and they do nothing about it. They simply tell you that they must have been tired of home and will come back when they are ready. Well, that is until someone turns up dead. Everyone is shocked, but the police didn't do anything when they went missing in the first place.
Like I said, I am not worried about them. What I am worried about, though, is the council. If this reaches them, then they will be breathing down on us, and with no proof of the existence of hybrids, there will be a lot of chaos.
I know what you are thinking. I am powerful now; I don't have to be afraid of a bunch of old men. True, but you remember what I told you about these men, right? Can you imagine what would happen if they found out that there was a woman out there more powerful than them? Yes, that's right. I'll be hunted, and so will everyone I love.
They'll want to make me bow to them, and that is something that will never happen. Why the hell do you think no one except my pack knows that the Alpha of The Hope Pack is a woman? I didn't just hide it because of Alec. I also hid it because of the council of bastards. I didn't want a war, and that's exactly what would happen if they found out, and I refused to surrender to them.
For now, my powers remain a secret. It's what is best for everyone I care about, including my pack. You think Alec is bad? You haven't met the twelve members of the council.
"Sadie?"
"Sorry. I zoned out a bit." I mumbled, shaking my head to get myself to
focus on the current issue. "So they be coming here? Don't you think that's a bit risky?"
He rolls his eyes at me. Can you actually believe that? Alec Ashford, a whole Alpha Male, rolled his eyes at me as if he were a child.
"I'm not that stupid. I gave them an
address to one of my houses in town. Which reminds me, we will need to be there tomorrow for them to take our statements."
The quicker we take care of this, the better. "Fine," I answered. "And the bodies?"
"You were right. They revert to the original species once they die. One was a vampire, and the other was a wolf. The bodies were brought back to the pack and cremated so they would not leave any evidence."
“Good... And Raven? I haven't seen her since I woke up."
"Apparently she left after you left, and no one has seen her since."
That's strange. She wouldn't have disappeared like that. Maybe something is wrong. I'll wait till evening before I begin hunting her down.
