Davis
“Alright, alright. What am I supposed to do now?” Damien asked.
“Just follow me, Alpha Damien. I will go over to Davis house and check it if there is Axel’s body there” Clarissa replied.
“Alright” he nodded his head and just then Davis walked towards them.
“We were leaving now” Clarissa said and held Damien’s hands once more before Davis could even say a word.
She led Damien to her own car and got into the driver’s seat. Damien got into the car with her and for a second, the air in the car became tense after all they were mates.
“If you are doing this to impress me, then you have failed” Damien said.
“Alpha Damien, I am not doing this to impress you or anything” she replied firmly and started the car.
She drove off for long minutes in absolute silence that remained unbroken by the two until they got to Davis home.
“We are here” she announced, pulling off her seatbelt.
“Alright” Damien made an attempt to pull off his own seat belt but he could not.
“What’s going on?” He questioned.
“Oh, I am really sorry, Alpha Damien. You should not have used the seat belt on that other side. It has a little bit of problem” she mumhled.
“You could have said that to me earlier”
“I am sorry” she mumbled once more and leaned forward to help him with the seat belt.
“What are you trying to do? Seduce me?” Damien questioned and Clarissa sighed heavily, pulling back to her seat.
“I was only trying to help” she stated.
“I do not need your help.” Damien replied and took the seat belt in his hands.
In one quick and swift movement, he pulled apart the seat belt.
“There” he muttered and got off the car. Clarissa shook her head and got off the car too.
The both of them walked towards the gate where there was of course guards.
“Miss Clarissa. It is strange to see you”
“Greetings to you Alpha Damien” the guards greeted.
“We want to go in” Clarissa said to them.
“You should know it, Miss Clarissa that beta Davis is not around right now” One of them replied.
“I know that but I want to go in. Are you saying I can’t go in because he is not in?” Clarissa asked.
“I am sorry, Miss Clarissa but we have been ordered not to let anyone in if he is not around”
Clarissa and Damien glanced at each other affirming that Davis was suspicious by not wanting to let anyone into his home.
“And I am now anyone?” Clarissa asked.
“I apologise for my stupid use of words but we really cannot let you in under the orders of the beta”
“Leave. I want to go in” Damien rasped, his impatience obvious.
“Alpha Damien, we are under orders and I hope you do understand us…”
“I am sorry but I don’t understand you” he cut the guard off and picked him up in his right hand, throwing him off.
“What are you doing?” Clarissa gasped.
“Are you going through with this or not? Cause I won’t have time wasted talking to these bunch of fools” he replied and walked towards another guard, slamming his fist into the head of the guard.
Clarissa shook her head and approached a guard herself.
It took only about three minutes for them to get down all of the guards.
“That was sure easier than talking to them” Clarissa agreed as they walked into the mansion.
“Alpha Damien” she called as he proceeded to walk away.
Damien stopped and turned back to look at her with his right brow slightly raised.
“When… When we find the body, I know how hard it will be for you to let us take it back so….”
“It’s fine” he cut her off.
“I think I know Hazel a little bit more these days. She is really going to kill herself if Axel does not come back to life. At least this way… One of them will be alive” he lowered his head for a second not wanting Clarissa to see the emotions that visited his face.
“C’mon” he raised his head up seconds later looking casual.
“Let’s go search for the body”
The both of them went different ways and began to search the entire place for the body of Axel but no matter how much they searched and how carefully, the both of them could not find the body of Axel.
After about thirty minutes of searching and finding nothing, the both of them met in the living room and shook their head to reveal their negative results.
“The body should be somewhere in here” Clarissa looked around the living room.
“I mean, why would he ask the guards to ensure that no one gets in if the body isn’t here?” Clarissa questioned.
“Because he wants to distract us and waste more time” Damien mumbled and Clarissa turned towards him sharply.
“That’s right. He made this place suspicious so we can waste time here” she agreed with him.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“Alright! Now that we have wasted time like he wants us to, where do we search for the body? You have any idea where else we could search?” He asked.
Clarissa thought for a moment before shaking her head in a negative fashion.
“I don’t know”
“Good heavens! I heard you all were childhood friends. There is nowhere that you can think of as his childhood friend?” He asked.
“I… I don’t know” she tried thinking harder and then her face lit up as she remembered a place.
“I remember a place. It’s a basement in the house of the late Alpha Donald. We all used to spend some time in the basement alone”
“Let’s go there, then”
The both of them rushed out of the house and got back into the car, this time Damien had taken control of the wheels.
He pulled the car onto the dark road and drove off.
He had only drove for some minutes when Clarissa’s phone rang. She picked up the phone and it was from a maid in the mansion where Hazel was staying.
“What’s going on?” Clarissa asked.
“Miss… Miss Hazel has a gun to her head right now… she… She is going to kill herself”
“What the…. Place the phone on loudspeaker now” Clarissa ordered and the maid swiftly did as she was told.
“Listen to me Hazel. We are on our way to where Axel’s body is. We have confirmed where his body is so do not waste your life, okay?!”
“Really?” Her voice croaked.
“Yes, really” Clarissa affirmed even when she was not sure they would find Axel’s body at the basement.
“So be safe. We would be with you soon”
Clarissa ended the call and sighed heavily.
“What’s wrong with her?” Damien asked.
“Nothing. Just drive and don’t make me lose two friends instead of one” she replied and Damien sighed heavily, stepping harder on the accelerator.
They got to the huge mansion in no time and both of them alighted and ran into the mansion with unrestricted access. Clarissa led the way to the basement and on getting there, she found that the door to the basement was open.
She and Damien climbed down into the basement and there, she discovered she was right. It was Davis.
He had stolen the body of Axel.
