Alpha Philip stood up.
“Please follow me.” He said before exiting the office.
We all stood up and followed him.
There was still pack members standing outside.
I knew that these people still wanted to see us.
The people remaining had to be part of the majority that liked the omega warriors and the works they do.
Alpha Philip finally stopped at the front of a house. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
I looked at him in askance.
“There are many members of my pack that had gone missing. This is the first person I wanted to show you. He lost his only daughter.” Alpha Philip explained.
-As I heard the words alpha Philip said, I felt weak.
I don’t intend to generalize but I felt like the females that are kidnapped would have it harder than the males.
In eight out of ten chances, these shewolves would be used by men.
Their fates would be utterly miserable.
The thought discomfited me.
It was like a reminder of what my fate would have been because of my beautiful face.
I was lucky to have been able to escape my unfortunate fate but whether these kidnapped people would be rescued was still in debate.
Right now, we have no tangible clues to follow and by the look of things, alpha Philip doesn’t intend to cooperate with us fully.
I would still judge this case fairly but my bias against alpha Philip increased.
We strode in.
burly werewolf came out of the inner room.
His face was sunken and emaciated. I could tell that it was the results of intense grief.
The werewolf had bloodshot eyes and he felt dangerous.
I knew the sense of danger I am feeling from him is because he was in an unstable state right now.
“Alpha, I asked for a moment of peace to mourn my daughter. Why are you here?” The werewolf growled through gritted teeth.
It was very clear that he did not welcome us hère.
I did not mind that however.
Whatever we are doing right now was for his own good.
“It is about your daughter’s kidnapping. The pack had invited the omega warriors over. They insisted on seeing you.” Alpha Philip said.
On the surface, his words were saying the truth as it was but he could have worded it better.
The words he said seemed to be throwing an implicit blame on the omega warriors for disturbing this werewolf’s mourning.
My eyes narrowed as I stared at him.
This alpha was as cunning as a snake.
However, there was no direct evidence to accuse him with.
He was able to go scot free.
I stepped forward, “We are really sorry for disturbing you but we had to go over everything carefully. If we can find your daughter, it would be because of the efforts we are putting now.”
Nobody spoke after my words and a few moments later, the werewolf nodded.
“I won’t obstruct your work. You can ask me any question you have and if I know the answer to it, I would definitely say it.” The werewolf promised. before he led us deeper into his house.
He brought us to the parlor and gestured for us to sit.
The omega warriors sat in one big chair and the werewolf that lost his daughter sat opposite us.
Alpha Philip remained in a standing position.
“When did your daughter go missing?” I asked, “I would like to know where she was kidnapped too. Is she the type to go out frequently?” “My daughter isn’t like other werewolves. Since she was little, she
had been a quiet girl. She is always cooped up in her room.” A nostalgic look
was in his eyes, “I went out for an errand the alpha sent me. She was there when I left but I discovered that she was missing when I came back.”
All of us listened intently.
I scanned the house.
The house was small and quaint so the facilities that wasn’t blocked by a door could be seen at a glance.
A somber energy hung in the atmosphere of the house.
It was very obvious that something had happened here.
Glass shards littered one corner of the floor.
I could imagine that this werewolf broke things in anger after he discovered that his daughter was taken away from him.
“My daughter doesn’t socialize that much. She prefers to read those human books and novels. This happened three days ago.” The love in the werewolf’s eyes were too strong to ignore.
I knew my mother but my father was unknown.
She was pregnant with me when she sought for refuge with the Silver Crescent Pack.
There is hatred and there is something called erasing someone existence from your life.
I hated alpha Bryan but the same can’t be said for my unknown father.
I ignored his existence in my life completely.
Who would leave a pregnant woman on her own as she looks for packs that would accept her?
My mother had been a rogue before the Silver Crescent Pack accepted her.
I would not dare to imagine how I would grow up if we were still living the lives of rogues.
Because of my mother, I had a grudge against my father and as I grew up, I did not ask for him or his whereabouts.
As far as I am concerned, only my mother had been worth my love. She had been my whole world.
My grudge didn’t stop me from knowing that if I had a loving father, his gaze would have been extremely similar to the werewolf before me.
His love for his daughter touched me.
He stood up, “I would like to show you her room. Maybe you will discover some useful clues there.”
Yuri and the other girls stood up. I copied their action and the werewolf brought us to a room.
The door had been locked but he used a key he had hung on his neck to open it.
I could not look at his distraught expression as he unlocked the door.
I knew it was taking tremendous courage to face what was the source of his grief.
We entered the room.
I scanned very inch of the room.
I wasn’t about to let anything escape my detection.
In this investigation, only the conclusion I and the rest of the omega warriors decide on is reliable.
The bedroom’s only window had been shattered and the bed was in a rough state.
Majority of the furniture in the room was on the floor and everything was scattered.
It was obvious a tussle took place here.
I knew the rogue that had been sent to take this werewolf’s daughter had to be more powerful than she is.
For her to give him a good fight was a marvelous thing.
If her father was at home, her struggling would have gotten his attention immediately.
The rogue would have been apprehended and the girl would be safe.
Alas, there are only ‘what ifs‘ in this world. There was no way to turn back time.
What had happened can’t be changed, it is just up to us to find a way to give this girl and the other victims justice.
It is a pity that we don’t know the rogues‘ hideout. We would have gone in a rescue mission to bring those victims back.
There was no tangible clue to be found in this werewolf’s house.
All we know is that his daughter had been kidnapped.
We all went out of the room and the werewolf locked it again.
He escorted us to the main entrance door.
“Thank you for the efforts you are putting into this investigation.” As the werewolf said his appreciations, his red eyes took on a deeper hue. “Don’t mention. It is our job.” I said before I turned to alpha Philip “Please bring us to the others.” I requested and he nodded amicably. Everywhere was silent as we followed alpha Philip to the next house. The emotions I had experienced in the house we left just now had not faded away.
My hatred for the evil god increased dramatically.
These issues wouldn’t have been as serious as it had been if he didn’t insist on putting his dirty hands in the matters that pertained to the moon goddess‘ creations in a bid to spite her.
He was unlocking the evil part of everybody’s minds.
Even now, I still have trauma from the first rejection I faced. I could have turned into someone else because of my grief and anger.
I caressed my stomach.
Thankfully, there are things that are keeping me in check.
The moon goddess. My pups. Sadie, my best friend. Silver, my wolf.
All these people made me want to strive to be better.
They are like a guiding light to me.
The sad thing is that most people don’t have people or things that would act as a guiding light for them.
Some might have people that should motivate them but they still succumb to their evil mind.
Either the people that should support them didn’t help or they themselves didn’t accept the help that was rendered.
I took a deep breath.
I would make sure I get to the bottom of this matter.
It was the least I could do for both the victims and their families.
This wasn’t about the grand mission the moon goddess have given to the omega warriors.
This was about my personal feelings and principles.
This was a thing I have to accomplish.
