The Dark Side Of Fate

Chapter 75 Devin's plans (Book 2)

~Devin~

Leo did not pick up, and ] heard Amelia's voice when the phone was answered.

"Hello," she said softly to the phone.

"Amelia, it is Devin.Is Leo there?" I asked her.

"Devin, how is Susan?" She asked.

"I found her, and she is receiving treatment in Hill Valey.We will return tomorrow, and she can tell you everything herself," I said, not wanting to get into a lengthy discussion with Amelia.

"Okay, I will take the phone to Leo.Hold on," she said, and I waited.

It took a bit, and then I heard her hand the phone over to Leo, telling him it was me.I also heard voices that sounded like Marcel and Theo in the background.I was glad they were alive and well and the ambush failed, or else I would have blamed myself for being sloppy and stupid.

"Devin, how is Susan," Leo said.

"She is fine; I am bringing her to Mountain tomorrow, and then I will head back to Greenville with Max.I hope he is up for the task,"I said.

"Is anything the matter?" Leo asked me, sounding concerned.

"I learned you were ambushed on your way back from the airport," I said, and he sighed.

"Yes, apparently, they have a mole in Mountain," he said, and I shook my head even though I knew he could not see me.

"No, they don't, Leo; I know who the mole is.And she isn't from the Mountain," I said, and he gasped.

"Susan?' he asked, and I growled.

Why was everyone always quick to point at my mate? "Not you too, Leo.Please give my mate a break.She is why I have found out who the mole is, so show some respect and gratitude"

I said, and he apologised.

"So, who is the mole?" he asked me quietly.

"Alice, my father's Beta's daughter.She was the one that Susan tried to confront in Brent this morning when she saw her with a Stepanov descendant.They buried silver in her and left her for the dead.Before that, Susan had issues with the bitch in Greenville because she claimed I was screwing her and tried to force Susan to leave.Thinking Susan might have imagined the whole thing because of trauma, I called my Beta to find out if Alice was around.He said the bitch left for Hayland to visit her folks yesterday, which put her in the Brent at the time Susan said she saw her.She also asked Lukman out a month ago, and they have been going steady.I know she only asked him out to keep a tab on me." I said, and Leo was silent.

I knew I had said a lot for him to assimilate.I waited for him to say something.

"So what is the plan?" he finally asked.

"I will bring my mate to your Packhouse and return to Greenville with Max, pretending Susan is missing; then I will set the bitch up and arrest her when she falls.I will bring her to Mountain, and we will drill her for answers.I could have decided to go home and arrest her, but that would make it her word against Susan's.I do not want my mate to have to defend what she saw.Especially since Alice has gone about telling people, Susan made me lay her off.The girl is a bitch, and I am ashamed I let her work closely with me.I am sorry, Leo.Sylvester and the others are in danger." I apologised, and he cleared his throat.
