Chapter 100: Found out

Victoria's POV

Slowly I turned around and met eyes with alpha Jordan. His eyes hold a lot of confusion and disbelief, which made me realize he might have gotten the feeling that it was me.

He stood on his feet and took a few steps closer to me.

''Doctor Augustina'' He called out

''Shit,'' I grumbled to myself. Apparently, he knew the face of the lady I was wearing.

''Yes?'' I replied, with a friendly smile on my face.

''It's you.'' He spoke jovially

''Yeah, sorry I can't remember where we've met ''I spoke confused.

''Of course, you won't remember. We met in an eatery in France during my last visit to France, that was three years ago.'' He spoke happily.

''Oh, sorry, so many things are going through in my head these days and I tend to forget things,'' I replied with a soft chuckle

''I understand. But what are you doing in France. I thought you are a Doctor and how is your health now, are you okay.'' He asked concerned.

''Oh, I decided to take some fresh air, so I relocated to California and for my health, I'm doing better than okay,'' I replied with a friendly smile.

''Kill him.'' My wolf whispered in my head

''Calm down, not so fast,'' I responded

''I have to take my leave, see you around alpha Jordan.'' I lowered my head in respect and hastily took the stairs back to my room.

I got to my room and breath in relief. That was close, and luckily for me, he doesn't know so much about her. Tiredly, I took out my shoes and changed into comforting wear of sweatpants and a big shirt.

I sat on the couch and placed my laptop on my lap, while I compelled myself to work, so alpha Derick wouldn't notice I have little knowledge of the job I'm being offered.

I was still working, when I noticed a soft knock on the door, and without being told I knew it was alpha Derick.

''The door is open,'' I said those words and got myself prepared.

He walked in and stared at me for a while before he averted his gaze to the window.

''Are you sick?'' He asked

''Not really,'' I replied promptly, which made him stare at me with a furrowed eyebrow.

''Really?'' He asked in disbelief as he took a step closer.

''Alpha Jordan said you made mention to him that you have cancer.'' He said those words while he settled his gaze on me.

''Oh,'' I said those words and thought of a way to handle this situation.

''I'm getting better, don't worry, I won't be a burden to you.'' I ensured him firmly,

He gave me a confused look and took a step further towards me, which made me gulped and wondered what he was up to this time.

''This is impossible.'' He murmured with a perplexing frown

''What…'' I tried speaking, but He cut me off by pulling me to himself.

''What are you doing,'' I asked surprised, but rather he ignored me and moved his nose to the crook of my left neck and sniffles my scent coming from his mark. Realizing what he was trying to do, I tried to pull away, but his Strong grips clenched tightly to my waist while he continued sniffing my scent.

''Mine.'' My wolf howled with satisfaction, which gave rise to a different feeling of pleasure enveloping my body. I felt my legs getting weaker and was lucky he was holding me to himself.

He went on sniffing my scent and I couldn't hold it, rather I relaxed in his arms and enjoyed the feeling that comes with what he was doing. Slowly he began placing kisses on the crook of my neck. He moved from my neck and started placing kisses on my left shoulder while I moaned out loudly and grinds myself with him.

''Shit.'' He groaned and pulled away from me

''I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done this, I just lost control.'' He spoke with a frown and hurriedly left the room before I could even say a word.

''Damn it,'' I grunted out and sat on my bed.

''What are you doing,'' I grumbled those words to myself and shut my eyes, disappointed at myself.

Here was a man who claims he loves me making out with another woman, while I barely can't get through a kiss with Bernard.

''How ridiculous.'' I groaned out

''Of course, you know it's your scent and aura that drew him to you, he wouldn't do it with another lady.'' My wolf said those words in my head, trying to defend alpha Derick, but I ignored her and lay on the bed, while I tried to get some sleep.

I woke up the next morning to the sound of the loud alarm from my phone, groaning tiredly I opened my eyes and left the bed. Within an hour, I was dressed in a white skinny skirt that stopped a bit above my knees, a purple long sleeve dress, and black hill shoes on my feet.

I combed my black jet hair and let it fall on my shoulders. I stared at the mirror one more time before leaving the room.

I took the stairs down to the sitting room and met Anthony on the phone with someone, by the look on his face it was obvious he was worried, which made me wonder what the problem was.

''Is everything okay,'' I asked as soon as he ended the call.

''Not really.'' He heaved a sigh and stared at me with curious eyes.

''What's going on,'' I asked tensed, for strange reasons, I was tensed.

''Alpha Derrick's mate is alive, the vampires confirmed it a few hours ago, and so did our Seers.'' He announced.

''W…ha…t.'' I blurted out, but quickly composed myself

''I thought she was Dead,'' I asked

''Well, it seems she is not.'' He shrugged his shoulders and released a sigh of relief.

''Come with me, we have to start working before alpha Derick comes.'' He said those words and led the way while I followed behind.

''Shit!'' I mumbled to myself and instantly made a mind Link with Bernard.

''Vicky, I know why you are reaching out to me, don't worry I got everything covered. We have to go back to France because if you stay there, they will easily fish you out.'' He pleaded.

''But, how did they find out,''

''I don't know Vicky, but all I know is that this fight is going to happen, and it's going to happen sooner than expected.'' He grumbled.

''Damn it.'' I groaned and entered alpha Derrick's office with Anthony.

''You have to leave that place this very minute. We will leave for France and go away from all this.'' He pleaded, but I shook my head and said

''I'll have to kill him before I leave, and if that means killing him tonight, then I'll do it.'' I muttered those words angrily.

''Just let everything go, let it go…'' he tried speaking, but I cut him off

''No, I will never…''

''Olivia.'' Anthony's voice made me ended the mind Link

''I've been calling you for a while now, what were you thinking.'' He asked

''Sorry, I was actually mind linking with my sister,'' I responded

''Alright. Take this.'' He handed a file to me, on which my name was boldly written.

''What's this,'' I asked while going through the files.

''This is the file concerning the case of alpha Derick's mate disappearance.'' He said those words as he sat on the couch while I sat beside him.

''Disappearance?'' I asked with furrowed eyebrows.

''Yes, alpha Derick believes she isn't dead, he knew she is alive and has been searching for her for the past two years.'' He replied and handed a laptop to me.

''You are going to send the content of those files to an email I'll send to you. He is the new private investigator who will be handling her case, and we need to send him details of the findings we've already gotten, so he will pick up from there.'' He said those words and settled his gaze on the laptop on his lap and started typing on it.

I froze and stared at the files in my hand. Everything confuses me. He was the one who gave me to the wolverines, then why would he be looking for me and paying investigators to search for me.

''Can I ask a question.''? I directed those words to Tony, who nodded his head, but his gaze was fixed on the screen of his laptop.

Nervously, I licked my lips and thought of how to say the words.

''Never mind.'' I spoke up and switched on the laptop

''You can ask, whatever you want to ask.'' He said those words in an assuring voice which made me nod my head and said

''Since the death of his mate…''

''She is not dead, it has been confirmed.'' He cut in

''Oh!'' I nodded my head and continued

''Since her disappearance, has alpha Derick been with a woman.'' I blurted those words out and cursed myself for saying those words.

Hearing those words from me made tony scoff and said

''You don't know how much he loves that woman because if you do, you will know he can stay alone all his life searching for her. He won't let go of her until his Wolf confirms she is dead, and even if she is dead, it will take a long time before he can be in the arms of another woman.'' He said those words and went back to his laptop, but stopped and stared at me with a quizzical look.

''What?'' I asked

''You've fallen for him.'' He said those words like he was so sure of it

''Of course not,'' I replied with a soft chuckle

''You better don't because he will never look your way or the way of any other woman.'' He expressed those words as a warning, while I just rolled my eyes and looked away.

The door of the room opened, and alpha Derick came walking in.

Our eyes met, but I quickly looked away and stood on my feet.

''Greetings.'' I lowered my head with respect, but just then I noticed he was holding Spanky in his arms.

''Spanky,'' I whispered to myself

Unexpectedly, spanky freed herself from his grips and raced to me. Out of impulse, I picked her up and started placing kisses all over her body, not minding the implication of my actions.
