70. A Third Option
ALPHA RAIDEN

| was no fool. Aurelia might argue otherwise but | wasn't a fool.
| knew Aurelia was hiding something fromand she was lying to me.
Aside from the weird but strong energy that surrounded us before she labeled Larisa as the kidnapper, I've
noticed a few other unexplained actions of hers. The nights she sits by the lake, moving her hands around like
she was trying to channel or tap into ssort of unseen energy, the cries that cafter what seemed like
failed attempts to channel and-
"Don't think too much, Raid. Aurelia definitely knows something and | bet she has plans to sneak out of the
apartment again tonight." Lex interrupted my thought as | walked out of the apartment after hours of planning
secretly with Jessica and an absentminded Aurelia. "Do you think I should believe her? A big part ofwants to
trust her but | would be condemning Larisa after breaking her heart. | don't want to hurt anyone else and who
knows, Aurelia could have accused her out of spite. She did confess her hatred for Larisa tobefore we found
the note." | expressed myself to
"You don't expect Aurelia to like Larisa, do you? At least she is sincere about her feelings, unlike Larisa who
pretends to like Aurelia." Lex responded. "Larisa is no saint and | don't mind trusting Aurelia. After all, getting
Kyle back is the top priority.

My wolf's words resonated in my head. | felt torn between doing right by Aurelia and Kyle and protecting what
was left of Larisa's honor after | ended our relationship.
"Perhaps we can ask Nina squestions. Aurelia mentioned her earlier." Lex suggested even though he didn't
seem to care about Larisa's feelings.
"Or we can find evidence. Aurelia doesn't have one but if we can link Larisa to the kidnap, finding Kyle would be
easier." | thought back to my wolf despite how much | hated the idea of painting Larisa as the kidnapper.
| didn't wait for Lex's response before | started sprinting towards Wellington's compound despite knowing that |
wouldn't be welcomed there. But | couldn't let that deterfrom investigating as | couldn't shake Aurelia's
accusation off.
"Don't tellyou are going there to ask Larisa if she kidnapped Kyle?" Lex asked, his voice dripping into my
mind with sarcasm and disbelief. "That would be foolish and Kyle could be-"
"I won't ask her but | have to confirm her whereabouts. If she dropped the note, she must have left her parents’
hat spoint today and if she has Kyle, she will have to be with him." | responded even though | was
confused. "That's a messed up plan but okay. Just remember that Jessica's plan kicks off at dawn. You have to be
there." Lex remindedjust as | stopped before Nolan's home.
| didn't hesitate to knock neither was any second wasted before the door was yanked open by a furious Nolan.
"To what do we owe the honor of your visit, Alpha." He tilted his head as a sign of respect but his voice carried
the opposite.
| ignored Nolan's attitude, announcing, "I'm here for Larisa. Kindly-"
"Apologizes, Alpha but she doesn't want to see you." Nolan cutoff. "She specifically asked to be left alone
and | don't think that's too much to ask after you dishonored and abandoned her."
"Fair enough." | nodded but smartly launched my plan by asking, "But is she at hand fine at least? We might
have failed as a couple but | still consider her a friend."
Another reason why | didn't want to believe Larisa was the kidnapper might be closely associated with the fact
that | didn't want to provoke internal strife between the two most powerful families in my pack- Flockhart and
Wellington.
Nolan didn't seem to perceive my
intention. He was blinded by anger as she muttered, "She has been hall day. My daughter has turned
herself into a prisoner ever since you mercilessly ripped out her heart. Please leave, Alpha. My daughter needs
Larisa has been hall day?
| asked myself as | turned to leave without making Nolan suspicious.
"She could have sent someone to deliver the note if she is the kidnapper." Lex voiced, stoppingdead in my
tracks.
My wolf was right and the thought of
that madelook around the compound to see if anyone was watching but it was eerily quiet which was
strange. Where were the family guards? Several questions flashed through my mind as found a good hiding spot

compound.
| blended with the night, hiding my frbehind a tree. Although, | wasn't expecting to spot Kyle in one of the
rooms or see him walk out. In fact, | still didn't believe Larisa had him... not until | was proven wrong.
Sooner than | expected, | saw Larisa.
To my surprise, she ran into the compound like she was in a hurry to get into the house. That
contradicted Nolan's statement and mean Larisa hadn't been hall day and aside from Aurelia's suspicion,
Larisa's absence from hmade her a qualified suspect.
"Nolan lied to your face. They're all liars." Lex snarled, forcing the idea of punishing Nolan into my head.
| also considered going into the compound but before I could step out of my hiding place, | saw Larisa again. Just
like she ran into the house, she rushed out but this time, she was holding a dangerous weapon. A silver gun.
| would recognize that no matter how far away | was.
"Why would she need a silver gun? That is dangerous to-"
Lex stated, "To kill Kyle and Aurelia if she is the kidnapper but if she's just a heartbroken woman, she might be
off to kill herself."
Lex laid down two options. Either way, | masked my scent and followed Larisa as | couldn't let her do any of the
two. Little did | know that there was a third option and when | discovered that, it was too late to stop Larisa.
