The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman Chapter 240

Catching Alice (Book 2)

~Devin~

I heard someone pull up in my driveway, and I knew it was Alice. She did not come by until ten in the morning, which was odd, given that I had told her she could resume her job.

I tried to look as miserable as possible with a bottle of beer sitting on the couch. I needed her to let her guard down and relax. I felt it was odd she broke up with Lukman the night I returned. She might be trying to skip town or might be planning something worse. I did not know, but I needed to be careful.

“Come in”, I called out, already knowing who was at the door, and Alice walked in. She looked nervous at first, but when she saw me, she gasped.

“Alpha!” she said and rushed toward me. Left to me, I would chain her in silver and drag her to Mountain, but I composed myself.

“What happened?” she asked, and I sighed.

“Just do your work, Alice and mind your business”, I snapped at her.

I had to act as usual so she did not get suspicious of my intentions.

She seemed like she had something to say, and I raised an eyebrow at her.

“Where is Miss Sullivan,” She said, still unable to refer to Susan as her Luna. This was where I had to act, so she remained in my house while they searched her belongings because her body language said she wasn’t resuming her work.

“Ran away two days ago, haven’t seen her since, and I doubt I would,” I said, maintaining the story. Something faltered in her eyes, and she was clearly hiding something.

I already knew what it was, so I did not bother with her; I just played along.

“I am sorry to hear Alpha; I hope she comes back,” She said, and I knew she did not mean those words.

“I doubt she will. I guess it was goodbye this time,” I said, and she smiled.

“let me fix you something to eat.” She said, and I shook my head immediately. She might try to load me up with silver too.

“Just keep me company and tell me all you have been up to since I left for the East,” I told her, and she smiled at me.

“Well, I went to visit my folks in Hayland and returned the day before yesterday. Lukaman and I broke up last night. We weren’t feeling the relationship, so we decided to end things, and that is all in a nutshell.” She said, and I wanted to drill her some more I just needed to be careful how I go about it.

“What are your dreams, Alice?” I asked her, wanting to understand her motivations. She looked at me and frowned.

“I want to know what you aspire for yourself. You have to want something for yourself,” I asked her, and she bowed her head.
