Chapter 56 No One

Liam

My head is still spinning from the hidden compartments on the Alpha floor that I am not paying much attention to my surroundings and when I hear Alwin tell me it is safe to discuss what we found on the Alpha floor I mention that what I am about to say has to remain a secret, but I hadn’t noticed that Zalia

was asleep because he was turned towards me. I look surprised when Benjamin took Zalia from

Deimos‘ lap and walked out the living room, but I was stunned when I heard Alwin talking to Deimos.

I immediately understood why Benjamin had left the room and hearing Deimos talk I knew the King was in serious trouble. We all watch Deimos walk out of the living room to follow Benjamin to wherever he went and I wait until someone realizes what they just dil, but it looks as if no one understands why both men are angry. “I just hope that they figure it out before they have caused real damage.” My Lycan says and I decide to keep my mouth shut for the time being.

All of them just sit there as they try to wrap their heads around what just happened, except for Leander. He seems to understand what just happened and I believe he understands a bit more than I do, but than he looks from me to the wall next to the kitchen. I follow his line of sight and I have to think of something very serious to not laugh my ass off, they forgot about the cameras Benjamin installed years ago and it wouldn’t surprise me if he is watching us.

“We didn’t find much of interest in the Alpha office, but the bookkeeping shows that the Pack is healthy. What surprised me was to find out that Alpha Brad disapproved every idea Pack–members had to get more income, but that wasn’t all that surprised me. This Pack has no businesses of their own, everything comes from investments and it is just enough to keep this Pack running.” Alwin says. “Sila called one of our Tech–guys down here to open the safes for us, but he hasn’t been lucky so far.”

We talk about their books just a little bit longer before Alwin asks me what we found on the Alpha floor, I tell him what we had been doing when he linked me about hidden safes and that we revisited every room we already checked. I tell him what Deimos figured out and what we found behind the bookshelves, that Warriors are placed inside the room to keep it safe. “Everything needs to be read and cataloged to be used. as evidence during the trial.” I say.

A knock on the door stops Alwin from asking questions and Leander gets up to open the door, “Hello, Nyx. What brings you here?” He asks as he steps aside to let her in. “I am here to help Deimos and Benjamin move to Gaia’s house.” She says as she walks past him with a furious look in her eyes and I know it is safe to say that Benjamin told her what happened here. “Does Gaia have room for one more?” Leander asks as he follows her.

“I will stay here. See how long it takes before anyone comes to their senses.” I say to Leander through the mind- link. “Tell Benjamin I didn’t realize that Zalia was asleep. I could never ask him to lie to his Pup. Leander confirms that he heard me and that he will relay my message to Benjamin. Everyone stops talking the moment we hear noises coming from down the hall and moments later I see Deimos walking by with a sleeping Zalia in his arms and the others follow close behind him.

I wonder how long it will take before anyone realizes what Alwin’s words indicated, but I doubt it will be anytime soon and I hope it will not take until Axelle gets here for any of them to understand the mistake they made. Because if Axelle or I have to point out to them why Deimos and Leander chose to leave with Benjamin and Zalia, well use your own imagination and I think you can get very close to what will happen.
