Alpha's Surrogate

Alpha’s Surrogate Chapter 44

44. Ardara Moon Pack’s second daughter

The sun gradually became hidden beneath the clouds, its brightness fading then eventually vanishing. Alpha Zander had placed the entire pack on lockdown and high alert since Alpha Xavier’s departure. Every nook and cranny had been examined. On the basis of searching for evidence, witnesses, and clues surrounding the mystery of the killings so that they could be solved.

In the late evening, the warriors had filed into the pack house meeting room, one by one to inform the Alpha of the findings of their investigations. All of the responsible parties had been given an assignment, and by the end of the day they were all quite nervous since they hadn’t been able to uncover any proof that would assist them in identifying the culprit.

The Alpha was emitting a fatal aura due to their failure at their assignments. Most of the warriors had dropped their heads in humiliation and dread. But some of the females had brought back some evidence and items that were worth the Alpha’s attention. Xavier had left to deal with the Vampire King, but the next murder could very well have occurred by the time he returned. That was not going to happen, according to the younger Alpha. In any case, he needed to find the perpetrator!

Kaiden and Tyler had remained in the meeting hall for several hours, staying close to their Alpha. Jennifer had been getting a lot of rest as the Doctor had suggested, therefore only the Gamma female had joined her mate at the meeting.

“Alpha, Vera has left,” Lena informed as soon as she received the mind-link from one of the female

warriors.

“That’s great, but are you certain she did her job well? I don’t trust witches,” Zander countered, raising

his eyebrows.

“Indeed, Alpha. Vera is one of the most powerful witches I’ve ever met. She revealed that a spell was performed in the pack’s south-east quadrant. Thanks to the spell, the deceased couple couldn’t mind-link us for aid which was why the pack hadn’t noticed anything out of the ordinary,” the Gamma female explained.

“Hmm, so she did what I requested, didn’t she?” He inquired, noting all the wolves in the room around him. The other pack members gathered in the meeting room exchanged interested yet puzzled looks since they had no idea what the Alpha had asked of the witch. Was it a top secret? But why?

“Yes, Alpha,” Lena responded with the two words without revealing any other information, leaving the others in a daze.

“Okay, great.”

“That’s all for today. I’m not happy with how the work is progressing with you guys, but the ladies came through with some information. The female Doctors and warriors were great today. I hope everyone does their best tomorrow as well. We are rapidly approaching the end of our time limit. There will be no

more killings!” Zander declared.

“Yes, Alpha!” Everyone said the together they left one by one, leaving the hall empty with just the Alpha and ranked wolves there.

“Zander, are you sure this trick will work?” Kiaden asked quietly.

“Yes, it will work,” the Alpha let wore a devilish smirk.

“Am I missing something?” Tyler inquired, his gaze moved between Lena and everyone else. He had been preoccupied with other tasks, thus he had not been a part of the plan that they had made.

“The Alpha has set a trap for the criminal, be it a vampire, spy, or whatever they may be,” the Gamma female said proudly.

“How?”

“Did you not notice that we brought up Vera the witch?” Kiaden remarked as he turned to Tyler.

“Yeah, but what about her? I understand you were only attempting to frighten people. Witches are not permitted on our land. It’s a crime in this pack,” he remarked calmly as he took a seat.

“It was not a lie. Vera was really here,” Lena confirmed.

“What?” Tyler sprang out of his seat, giving his mate and friends a horrified expression. “What do you have planned, Zander?” He yelled in a whisper as the Gamma walked closer to his

Alpha.

“I want to capture the culprit and put a stop to the murders,” Zander answered, turning to face his

friends.

“How?” Tyler murmured once more. If the elders found out about a witch being on pack land

everyone would be in big trouble.

“I ordered Vera to use a stronger spell on our pack that I had wanted. Following this, any person who would perform magic would be revealed to us right away. But when I circulated the rumors, he would not dare to and there would be no further killings. I’m sure he wants to remain hidden from us, this way no one else in our pack dies. It’s not going to be easy to catch them since they are camouflaged in the shadows and know everything about us, so I’ve imprisoned him in the pack. Neither magic or murder will be possible for him,” the Alpha disclosed his evil plan while radiating his wicked aura.

With the advent of another murder, their reputation and position in the werewolf community would be called into question. There was no way he was going to allow that happen. Tyler was rendered speechless. The Alpha had disobeyed pack law, but it was for the safety of his people. He just nodded, but he was confused.
