Chapter 61

Daran’s soldiers poured into the lumber camp and controlled all guards. All hard labors in the camp were shivering in fear. Balvina quickly came to calm these people down.

Maxie still couldn’t believe what she was saying, “But how did you know where my families are…‘

Daran walked over and answered on Janet’s behalf, “Janet believed that Baron must have something on you to have you work for him. She found that your family hadn’t returned to your old house for almost 3 years. And I have my men dug out the old surveillance footage from 3 years ago and found out where Baron took them.”

He paused and then said with a deep voice, “Sorry Maxie, I should have found out that you were living under his control earlier.”

Maxie covered her mouth and shook her head in tears. She and her families fell into each other’s arms, sobbing on each other’s shoulders, venting out everything they had suffered for the last 3 years.

Janet looked at them and felt her heart swell. She knew what it felt like to reunite with families. She got the same feeling when Casper brought her home almost an year ago.

At the meantime, Daran’s soldiers brought the guard of this lumber camp over. The

guard was no longer harsh and violent like he was earlier. Instead, he dropped on his knees unvolunteetarily in front of Daran in fear and trembled like a sheep.

“Alpha Daran,” the guard quivered. “Please forgive us…We know nothing…We were simply told to keep an eye on these workers!”

“By whom?” Daran asked with a freezing voice.

The guard hesitated. The soldier standing behind his back grabbed his left hand and pinned it on the ground forcefully. Picking up an axe, the solider looked at Daran and waited for his order.

“Chop his hand off,” Daran sneered icily. “Maybe that will get him to talk.”

“Yes Alpha!”

The soldier raised the axe high in the air. The lumber camp’s guard let out a horrific screaming, “NO–Wait! My boss is Gamma Baron! Please…let me go!”

The soldier dropped the axe back down and grabbed his collar bringing him to Daran. Daran looked down at his fearful and sweaty face and asked, “Who are these workers? And what is this lumber camp for?”

The guard almost wet his pants earlier. He was ready to spill everything out now.
