Chapter 25

Vlad Hayes

I did not expect Samara to reject my offer, I was dealing with a way to go back to her after I left her in the room and went into mine.

I wanted to make her happy at least before I found out sons. I know nothing would make her more happy than that.

When Xylan's mind links me.

‘Alpha.’

‘What’s going on Xylan.’

‘He’s ready to receive you now, at the prison.’

‘I’m on my way.’

I closed the mind link with a low growl and grabbed my jacket from the wardrobe and hurried out of the house.

I did not see Samara when I left, probably for the better, I don’t think I would be able to answer the questions she has for me at the moment.

I took the car and drove to the prison yard, which wasn’t that far from the pack house.

I stopped when I arrived.

“Alpha!” Xylan was the first I saw and was coming down to me, he was already talking. Though I didn’t grasp much about what he said.

I was more focused on seeing the bastard rogue again.

Hopefully, I won’t kill him this time.

“You made him ready?”

“Yes, Alpha.”

“I don’t want to waste my time on him, he better be ready to answer me,” I grunts as I marched down to the interrogation room and pushed the door open. He was seated on the chair and was lifted by one of the guards to show respect as I stepped in.

I sat down on the empty chair and Xylan was on my side.

“Let him sit.”

He flopped down, with a sunken face. His eyes were swollen and he looked like he had been dealt with, he could barely talk.

“Now where are they?”

“I don’t know what you are talking about Alpha.” He whined when he spoke and placed a hand on his mouth.

“It seems you don’t want to talk ever again. I could make that easy for you.”

“Where are the kids?” I asked again specifically.

He moved his head sideways. I slammed my fist on the table and pulled him by the shirt.

“I would kill you right here and won’t regret it! Tell me where they are!” I growled in his face, my wolf trying to surge forward.

“I don’t know! They took them away, I didn’t know they were going to leave, I came back after they sent me on an errand and they flee. I only came back to meet you, I’m just a victim as the kids.” He started to cry which irritates me and I dropped him, he fell on the ground and buried his head in both hands, and was crying his eyes out.

I sat down and clasped my hand over my head.

“I know nothing Alpha, I was captured as well. I’m a member of the pack, I was kidnapped by them.”

“He’s right,” Xylan whispered to me.

“He was known to be missing by his parents on his way to school, he’s a minor.”

I groaned and hit the table.

“Then all the things you said?”

“They made me say all that, that it would be the only way that I would be set free. They promised they would let me go if I do all of that.”

“So it was planned?” I gritted my teeth.

“Yes, Alpha.”

I let out an exasperated sigh, with my back against the chair.

“Find his parents.”

“I already did Alpha, they are in the pack house and seek to see you. They were pleading that he was innocent.”

I pushed my hand through my hair and hissed out loud in annoyance. I stared back at him.

“Tell me everything you saw in that place, you are here in the pack. No harm would come to you. But it would be if you refused to tell me what or who held the triplets.”

His tongues run over his dried lips and he swept his long wavy hair that was coming down his face to the side.

“It was a man, he’s tall and dark. I couldn’t see his face because he always wore a mask. I can’t remember clearly.” He cried.

“Give him some time, Alpha I think he’s still traumatized. Maybe a week or two we might call him again and ask him to give us details about the man’s face. We might get a drawing of him and see who he likes in the pack.” Xylan whispered with his hand on my shoulders.

“Week is too long, I can’t wait that long.”

“We need patience, Alpha or we might be entering a trap they had for us.”

I tapped my fingers at Xylan’s words and glanced at the boy who kept whimpering.

“How old are you?”

“Eighteen soon, Alpha.”

“Name?”

“Jonathan Miller.”

He wiped his eyes and stared at me.

“Tell me about the kids were they hurt in any way? Or were they treated? Were they given food, do they sleep well?”

I was letting my emotions get the best of me which I shouldn’t allowed.

I cleaned my face with my hand.

Jonathan grinned showing just his upper teeth stained with blood.

“They cried most times at night, that they want to go back to their mommy, He would have no choice but to pat them to sleep and give them anything they want. They are smart boys, they were treated well. Alpha. For some reason, I thought this wasn’t just an ordinary kidnapped.” He exhaled after his long speech and then continued which I listened.

My interest was piqued when it comes to them. Kalan and I want to know much about them.

“He won’t hurt them but he would yell. I think he has a bigger plan for them, Alpha. That he might kill the triplet at the end if he doesn’t get what he wants.” He said resignedly.

“I won’t let that happen.” I clenched my fist at my side and cast a look at Xylan. He didn’t say much.

I know I wasn’t ready to lose my triplet yet.

Whoever he was or wherever he was, I would find him.

“Take him away,” I ordered and stood up.

“Where are we taking him to, Alpha?” The guard asked timidly.

“He would be recruited into the pack army. Let him spend the remaining days with his parents before he becomes eighteen. He must be taken away from them to join the army.” I gave out the orders.

“Yes. Alpha.” He bowed.

I walked out of the prison with Xylan behind me ignoring whatever Jonathan was saying.

“I would have killed him that day,” I said to Xylan as I got to the car.

“He looked quite mature for his age I won’t have blamed you Alpha that you think he was one of them. What about his parents?” I held my door when I wanted to close them.

“Are you going to see them?”

“Attend to it, Xylan. Isn’t that why you are my Beta.”

“I thought it would be better if you met with them and express...”

“I have no time for that.” I cut him off and took his hands away from my door and shut it.

My phone rang, and I sighed staring at the caller ID and being reluctant to take it.

Veronica.

Xylan saw it and chuckled.

“Alright. Alpha. I think you have a more pressing issue to deal with. I’ll take care of the parents, you take care of your family problems.”

“You’re crazy.” I hissed at him.

Xylan and I started the car, he run shortly out of the way knowing that I might decide to hit him with the car.

“Call me if you need me.”

“I won’t.” I snapped and speed out of the prison yard.

I answer the phone when the call came again from Veronica. I placed the phone on a speaker.

“Hello, Nica.”

“Alpha Vlad.” She called in annoyance.

“Is anything the problem Nica?”

“How can you say that to your fiancé.” She grumbled.

I placed a hand on the sterling and another touching my jaw.

“Anyways I’m in your house and where are you?”

I screeched the car to a halt immediately.

“What did you say?”

“I came to you Vlad, where are you? They fucking servants keep spewing out nonsense. I’ve been waiting for an hour now, you have to come and meet me at home.”

“What is the urgency for?” I didn’t hide the irritation in my voice.

“Why did you come to the pack without informing me about it?” I frowned.

“Do I have to inform you, Vlad, so you could shut me out again? I have learned my lesson from the other times.”

“Why are you here?”

“I came because the elders of my pack and yours have decided that we push on with the wedding. It has to be this month.”

“I told you that I had postponed it!” I growled.

“You’ll have to explain that to your elders I don’t think they get the reason why you have to postpone the wedding.”

I run my finger through my hair.

Fuck.

I ignite the car and started l driving.

“Where are you?”

“I’m home, honey,” She squealed.

“I have come to stay.”

“What?”
