The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate by Fire Sprout

Chapter 40

We finally arrived at the next house. The house was bigger than the previous one we had been to.

Alpha Philip knocked and a man answered the door.

His eyes was red and bloodshot. It was similar to the werewolf we visited previously.

“This is Peter. He lost his two daughters.” Alpha Philip introduced.

Peter opened his door wider and he led us in. He did not say a word.

We all went in.

Immediately I entered, I observed the place.

There was broken pieces of furniture scattered on the floor and the whole house was in a rough state. Still, something seemed inconsistent · somehow.

I stared into the man’s eyes.

The eyes can be the window into the soul.

Sometimes, the secrets a person seeks to hide would be revealed with just a glimpse into their eyes,

This man acted the part of a distraught father well but something doesn’t sit well with me.

It felt fake.

In the previous house, I had no choice but to succumb to the powers of my emotions.

I was immersed in the emotions the previous werewolf emanated.

I turned my eyes to alpha Philip.

He had a confident smile on his face that prompted my urge to punch him.

Why was alpha Philip so confident?

The more he acts this way, the more I wanted to unravel his secret. “Where was your daughters kidnapped? Are they the type to go on outings?” I repeated the questions I asked the first werewolf we visited. An unknown look flashed through Peter’s eyes.

He exchanged a look with alpha Philip.

I narrowed my eyes.

What are they exchanging information about?

I did not underestimate the information the eyes can transmit.

It is like the humans say.

A picture could contain a thousand words.

The type of info the eyes can pass is special.

I knew there had to be something fishy going on here.
