Chapter 51

Chase's POV“Fucking hell.” I swore as I flipped through the file.“It's clean.” Henry said from across the room where he leaned against the far wall of my study.“Too fucking clean.” I gritted out and dumped the useless heap of paper back on my desk.I wasn't in the best mood. The information I had asked for on Sally Wallace— the late owner of the car that had left Greene's had finally come in early this morning from Hwan's cousin.I had reluctantly gotten out of Maya's arms without waking her and hauled my ass to my study where Henry and Ron waited for me.Now I wish I hadn't. There was nothing that could help here.Ron sighed and flipped through his copy. “All her movements were accounted for and no single person she interacted with prior to being hospitalized could be classed as suspicious or odd.”“Basically, she was the cleanest, most problematic woman before cancer did her in.” Henry flopped onto a chair, exhaustion written all over his features.“Yeah, or someone took great pai

Chase's POV“I have a bad feeling about this.” Ron said as we reached Hwan's door. The steel 13 beside it hung at an odd angle and I took that as a bad omen. “We should have stopped Louis and asked how he knew about the case.”I knocked on the door and waited. “Right now, there is no need for that. After this talk with Hwan, we'll know how many people he let lose this information. Asking Louis will only raise alarm.”“That's if the fact that we’re here so early doesn’t already sound warning bells to whoever the spy is. I wonder what Louis was doing here by this time.”I shrugged, still thinking over our encounter. “Beats me. Maybe they’re lovers.”Ron let out a loud snort and leaned against the wall but immediately straightened when the lock on the other side of the door clicked and the knob turned.The door opened to reveal a bedraggled Hwan who I had not seen since our little rescue stint in Lunagrove.His brows furrowed as he looked between Ron and me, when he spoke his voice was h

Chase's POV“A spy camera?!” Hwan sprang out of his chair to examine the deceptive pen. “Shit.” He cursed then with lightning speed, he disassembled the device.I caught Ron's eye and a look of understanding passed between us. The spy had planted it.“You’re skilled with spy cameras?” Ron asked, sparing a glance at the pieces in Hwan's balled-up fist.“Devices in general. This one model is easy enough to put together and take apart.” He dumped the pieces on the shelf, obviously worked up. “Why would anyone plant a spy cam here?“I have a few guesses.” I muttered.His face fell as realization dawned on him. “That's how they learnt about the case.” They heard it when I spoke with my cousin on the phone!”Ron gave him a grim nod.“This makes no sense. How did whoever this is know to put it in my place? Who would do such a thing?”“Again, I have a few guesses.” I sighed. I had hoped Ron and I's suspicions were wrong but now it didn't seem like it. Sometimes being right wasn’t all that gre

Chapter 54

Chase's POVAt Henry's words, I went deadly still. In my veins anger roared like a breathing creature.'Where was it?' I asked Henry.'I have no idea where it was placed but it probably rolled because I found it in the terracotta pot by the window. I could detect the radio signals from it but other than that, it's practically useless.'Ron frowned. 'Why is it useless?''The video and audio inputs are impaired. Maybe it got damaged when the plants in the pot were watered. The downside is that I don't know how long it's been this way and how much the spy must have heard already. How did it go at Hwan's? Do you know who did this?''Oh, I know who the bastard is, alright.' I growled. Henry was done reporting what he found so I returned by focus to the TV.Behind me, Ron addressed Henry. 'We have a suspect but we aren’t so sure.''I'm very fucking sure it's him.' Behind the TV, my finger caught onto a latch and when I tugged, the rectangular device lowered to reveal a slit in the wall. “Bi

Chapter 55

Chase's POVThe perks of being an Alpha and a lycan were endless and today one of those perks came in handy. While my pack members were in the territory, I could feel out on my kink to them and get the general orientation of their location.Although his ability waned if they were no longer in the territory, it helped a lot. It was an ability that few knew of— Louis probably did not or else he would have long fled the territory.Ron and I shifted and headed north to find Louis. As I sped beside Ron, my surroundings blurred but they eventually became familiar and dread curled in my gut and I slowed my pace to a trot.Blood drained from my face as I took in the landmarks with barely concealed horror.I came to a full halt as I realized where Louis was. I should have known.'Of all places that bastard could have hidden, he chose there?' My furious growl did nothing to stop the cold sweat that broke underneath my fur.'Chase, what's wrong?' Ron realized I had stopped and retraced his steps

Chapter 56

Chase's POVThese woods had become thicker over the years but I had Louis' scent and shot through the dense trees like a bullet.Behind me, Ron's feet pounded, also in pursuit.“Louis! You can't run forever!” My roar rang loudly, scaring away birds that had taken refuge in the small forest.It was laughable that he thought he could outrun us.He was a few paces ahead of us, and at the sound of my voice, he did something foolish. Running at full speed, surrounded by enormous trees, he cast a hurried glance behind to catch sight of us but instead, stumbled over a raised root and went crashing into a birch tree that sent him crumbling to the ground.“Pathetic,” Ron muttered and yanked him up from the dirt by his collar. “He's unconscious.”“Not for long.” Without remorse or reservation, I drew my hand back and struck him hard across the face. Twice.He came to with a start, yelling—“It wasn’t me!”My gaze was ice cold as I regarded him. “I haven’t asked you anything yet, Louis. But since

Chapter 57

Maya's POVMy dress was perfect.I went shopping with Genny in the afternoon to find a dress for tomorrow's party. The party was formal and almost like a ball so I knew I wanted something long.It had taken us hours but when I finally spotted my dress, I had known. I kid you not, I had actually gasped.It was a floor-length maroon number with a corseted top and a daring slit that made my leg look mouth-watering.I had woken up in an empty bed so at first, I was slightly miffed at Chase but while I was shopping, the irritation melted away and by the time I found my dress, I was excited to see his reaction to me in it.I was back in our room—yes, 'our'! All my things were here now— waiting for Chase to come home. I had no idea where he went to— I hadn't seen Ron or Henry either— and although I could have just asked him, I didn’t want him to know I had gone shopping. I wanted him to be stunned speechless tomorrow. And okay, maybe I also wanted him to think I was mad at him for leaving so

Chapter 58

Maya's POV“What the heck is Greene playing at?”Henry's question hung in the air along with the many other not-so-rhetorical questions that had been thrown out since we convened in Chase's study.Chase and I were together on the couch, Henry was swivelling behind the desk— which earned him occasional glares from Chase— and Ron was pacing dizzying circles around the room.“Ron, you'll wear a hole in the carpet.” I joked.“I'll buy a new one if that happens.” He replied without pause.“Hear me out!” Henry exclaimed, springing out of his chair. “What if he put it off because of what happened yesterday? His spy got caught and he knows we'll suspect him so he brings up a bullshit excuse and postpones the whole thing so that he has time to rebuild his front and avoid getting caught. Maybe even recruit another spy or two.” As he spoke, his gestures became exaggerated and when he was done, he waited expectantly for a response.“That’s highly unlikely.” Chase sighed. “Louis said that Greene h

Chapter 59

Maya's POVI chatted with a member in the living room while waiting for Henry. I missed having Genny and Faith under the same roof with me. I had made more friends here but I still needed a daily dose of Faith's snarkiness and Genny's kindness. With Christian back, I had been giving them some space for family time but I was starting to regret that decision.Henry returned shortly after with a bulging rucksack and gestured at me to follow him.“Where are we going?” I asked as we left the house.“The garage.”I wanted to ask why we needed to go there but that was another place I hadn't gotten to see yet, so I kept my mouth shut. We walked several feet away from the house and I frowned. “The garage isn’t attached to the house?”“Nope.” He smirked. “It was at first but given the amount of cars we kept collecting, we eventually broke it down and built a new one away from the house. Right here.”My jaw dropped to the ground. The building in front of us was massive. If I hadn't known it was

Chapter 60

Maya's POVWe tried two more tapes just to be sure and we were right. The view was either blocked by a wall, a vase, et cetera. Displayed on the TV now was a shadowy view of what appeared to be a shelf.“With the first two, I thought it was that way because he was new to the whole spy thing or had hidden it too quickly.” I squinted at the black-and-white screen. “But he did it intentionally.”Thus, only the audio aspect was useful. “Why on earth would he do that?”Henry ran a hand through his hair. “Who knows? Guilt? Maybe he knew what he was doing was bad enough so blocking the lenses was his way of atoning by maintaining some sense of privacy.”“He could have just bugged everywhere with listening devices instead.”“True but I guess we'll never know.” Henry shrugged. His eyes held a faraway look and I remembered that unlike me, he had known Louis better.I didn't ask how he was dealing with the loss or if they had been close. How could I? How did one handle such a situation?So I sat
