Knowing the Truth

Victoria's POV

''Sir.'' I blurted out as I strutted on my feet, bringing the attention of alpha Derick to me

''Is there…'' I did not let him finish before speaking up

''I have to leave.'' I said those words in a hurry and rushed out of the office. I walked out of the office and hurried out of the mansion with no particular location in my head.

''You were wrong all these while.'' My wolf kept whispering in my head, which made my heart clenched. I shook my head in disbelief as I imagined all that happened that day. Everything about that person looks exactly like alpha Derick, and it was difficult for me to notice a difference.

''If it wasn't him, then who?'' I asked myself those questions as I stood In front of a door. Lazily, I knocked on the door, and it was opened by Clinton.

''What is wrong.'' He asked the moment he saw the expression on my face.

''Can I come in.''? I asked with a shaky voice, Which made him opened the door wider and let me in.

''Thanks.'' I murmured and sat on the sofa.

''What is wrong.'' He asked concerned, as he stood beside me. I gulped and did not know what to say, but rather I closed my eyes and made a mind Link.

''Jane!'' I called out through mind Link.

''Yes, who is this.'' She responded,

''It's me…'' I paused and took a deep breath

''It's me Victoria, I'm in Clinton's apartment and will like to see you.'' I answered

''Victoria!'' She yelled through the mind Link.

''Is this true…but your voice.'' She paused, but I did not let her continue,

''I'm waiting for you.'' I said those words and ended the mind link. I met the curious eyes of Clinton, which were staring at me confused.

''You are crying. What's wrong…'' He asked, but before he could get a response from me, Jane appeared in the sitting room. She glared at Clinton and moved her gaze to me with confusion all over her face.

''Oh my goodness.'' She exclaimed and took few steps closer to me

''Victoria?'' She asked, stunned.

''Yes it's me. Hello Jane.'' I replied nonchalantly, but she rushed to me and gave me a tight hug, while she mumbled words of relief. I sighed in relief and held on to her embrace. Gently, I moved away from her and held her gaze.

''Oh my God, alpha Derick was right, he was right all along.'' She spoke happily, but then she frowned and gave me a quizzical look.

''What happened to your face and why were you pretending to be someone else.'' She asked which made me sighed and stood on my feet.

''I did a face transplant because my face was damaged.''

''Those pricks, they shall certainly pay for what they did.'' She grunted in anger, Which made me curious.

''I have few questions for you.''

''What is it.'' She asked, while I took a deep breath and spoke up

''Were you with alpha Derick the day I was taken.'' I asked

''Of course yes. I was the one teleporting him around.'' She responded quickly, waiting for my next question.

''Did you both went to the room I was held captive.'' I asked,

''Of course yes, but when we got there you were already taken away.'' She replied while I slumped on the floor, but Clinton was quick and grabbed me. With ease, he made me sat on the couch to catch my breath.

''What is wrong.'' Clinton asked, while I shook my head and couldn't say a word.

''Don't tell me you thought he has a hand in the wolverine's activity.'' She asked

''Yes, I did. In fact, I saw him. He came with the wolverines and took me out of that room.'' I murmured

''Who? Alpha Derick?'' She asked with raised eyebrows.

''Yes. The person has his face and everything…''

''That wasn't alpha Derick. I was with him all the time, and before we got to you, you were already taken by the wolverines.'' She spoke firmly, which made my heart clenched, but at the same time I was happy.

''If it wasn't alpha Derick, then who was it.'' Clinton asked, which made me went into deep thought.

''Whoever did that wanted to trick you into following the wolverines.'' Jane spoke up

''I know, and it worked. I thought it was alpha Derick all this while.'' I murmured confused.

''Listen, I don't know who you saw with the wolverines, but it was definitely not Alpha Derick.'' Jane said in a serious tone,

''I know.'' I said with relief and was happy I haven't done anything stupid.

''I will kill them, I will kill each one of them.'' I said those words with gritted teeth and clenched my both fist in anger. The sitting room was quiet for a while until Jane spoke up

''Why were you hiding your identity from us.'' Jane asked, but I didn't say a word, rather I went into deep thought wondering how someone else could get Alpha Derick's face.

''What are you thinking.'' She asked, while I stood on my feet and wandered around the sitting room, thinking of what to do.

''How could someone have the face of Alpha Derick.'' I asked no one in particular.

''I don't know, but I believe the wolverines will have an answer to that.'' Jane replied.

''Indeed.'' I nodded my head and said

''Then I'll have to make them talk.'' I said those words and thought of a plan.

''Can we keep this between us just for today.'' I asked

''Why?'' You don't trust alpha Derick.'' She asked

''No, far from it, I need to do something, and he might stop me if he knows.'' I explain.

''Just for today.'' Jane warned.

''Yes. I'll tell him myself come tomorrow.'' I replied

''Fine.'' She smiled widely and pulled me into a tight hug

''Mom will be so happy to hear this, welcome back Vicky, we miss you.'' She murmured in tears while I ran my fingers through her hair and said

''I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere.'' I assured her while she nods her head and pull away.

''I need to go back, I'll see you guys soon.'' I said those words and placed a soft kiss on Clinton's cheek before leaving. I left Clinton's house and made my way back to the mansion. I reached the mansion, knocked on alpha Derick's door, and waited for him to let me in.

I stepped in and saw him on a phone call having a heated argument with Someone over the phone. Quietly I sat on the couch and moved my gaze to him just to notice how stressed up he was all because of me.

''Why don't you tell him.'' My wolf urged, but I shook my head and locked her away before she exposes me. We both held gaze, but he quickly looked away and tossed the phone on his desk without ending the call.

''Is there a problem.'' I asked, but he shook his head and gave me a quizzical look.

''What happened, why did you run off like that.'' He asked

''Emmmm…'' I stammered as I thought of what to say

''I got a call that my presence was needed urgently at home, I apologize for reacting that way.'' I apologized while he sighed and picked up his iPad.

''I believe all is well.'' He inquired while his gaze was fixed on the iPad.

''Yes, yes.'' I responded quickly.

''Good because you are escorting me to the wolverine's gathering tomorrow, so get prepared.'' He announced.

''Yes sir.'' I spoke happily, but made sure not to show it out. Walking back to this place, I thought of a way to convince him to allow me to tag along with him, but I never knew he already has it in mine.

''Great, you all should get ready for me ''I whispered those words to myself as I thought of my plan.

''Why are you smiling.'' His words took me out of my thought.

''Nothing.'' I replied quickly, while he gave me a questioning look and away. I stared at him and wish I could tell him it was me, but I held myself.

''Do you think he would like this appearance.'' I asked my wolf

''Of course, stop feeling insecure.'' She assured me while I nodded my head in relief.

A knock came on the door and alpha Derick asked the person in.

''Bernard is here to see you.'' The male servant announced, which made me grumbled within, wondering what he was doing here.
