| paced my room. It was late and | was yet to see Fagel. We had discussed he would be back by six pm, this was
ten and | was yet to see him. | hoped he had not run into trouble on his way. | knew the mission | had sent him
was a dangerous one but | had find the truth.
| would have gone myself but people knew me. They knew my family, if they sawgoing to meet some
possible bad people, news would fly. They would think | was have shidden agenda.
And this was not the tto have bad news fly about myself. | checked my watch, twenty minutes past ten. Just
ten minutes, ten minutes before | go out to search for him. | would not want something bad to have happened to
him.
| just prayed he was alive. How bad were these people? When he had toldhe had seen the locket somewhere
and it had been those speople that had tried to forcefully take over their, | knew something was wrong and
it something that required urgent looking into.
Those people might have been responsible for poisoning my dad, but who were they? That was what | wanted to
know. Until knew who they were and their motives, | would not understand any of whatever was happening.
Which was why | had sent Fagel to go find them. To know if there was anyone who would know these group of
people, what they stood and what their motives were. | had been the one who had ordered Fagel to take away
the body. The less Erika knew, the better for her and the safer she and her friends would be.
Erika was a very inquisitive person and would always want to find any truth to the end. She was the next Alpha
of the pack, | wanted her to concentrate on that. To focus on leading the pack dad had left in her care.

I would help her get to the root of it, and | knew things could at a point get very tough and bloody. | would be at
the front of it all. | was all for finding the truth and | would get it.
| checked my watch again. Twenty eight minutes past ten. | stepped into my slip- ons and went out of my room,
quietly going down the stairs. | could not wait anymore, I'll try to go find him.
Walking slowly past her door, | ran the rest of the way, following the back of the mansion. | stepped out into the
windy breeze of the night. There was a back gate | had asked him to follow through when he returned, | took the
gate just in case, so | would not miss him.
Few steps out of the gate, | saw a figure coming towards me, | adjusted my stance, poised for a fight. Thankfully,
my pen knife was in my back pocket, | never went anywhere without them especially now that these events were
unfolding.
Coming nearer, | noticed this person was limping. Using the little light that stretched its beam towards the gate
and even out of it, | saw it was Fagel. He ctowards me, limping as fast as he could.
| quickly went to him and tried to help him.
"Fagel, what went wrong?"
"They...they..." His eyes were closing.
My eyes widened. He was stabbed in multiple places, he was even bleeding from his mouth. Without asking
further questions, | quickly carried him, running as fast
as | could with his weight ontowards the hospital. It was night, so thankfully there was no much people
around to see.
Many of the pack members had gone to bed at this time. | took him into the hospital.
"Your Highness." One of the nurses sawand rushed to help me.
"Where's the doctor?" | asked her.
"You need to come..."
"Where's the doctor?!" | bellowed at her.
She trembled. "This way, Your Highness."
Upon my instruction, Fagel was taken to the VIP section. A stretcher was brought, they placed him on it and took
him there. Fear and panic seized my being. | hoped in finding the truth | had not worsened things.
| said a short prayer to the Moon Goddess not to let Fagel die. My life was not important than his, | did not want
him to die on my account. My hands were stained with the blood as the nurse tookto see the doctor.
She proceeded to knock on the door but | opened it before she could do so. On other days, | would have
considered the formalities but today was different. This night was different.
The doctor saw my face and ordered the nurse to go. "What brings you here this late, Your Highness?"
"I need you to save someone for me, he's in the VIP section, and please, let it be a secret. This must not get to
my sister."

The doctor looked at me. "His blood?"
"Yes." My shirt and hands were stained with him. "He needs urgent treatment, he's lost a lot of blood."
The doctor followedquickly to
the VIP section, we entered the
room he had been put in. Two nurses were already
tonet
him. He was receiving IV. | looked at him. Poor Fagel. He had just been
trying to help me.
"Will he survive it?" | looked at the doctor, hoping he would givea hopeful response.
"He has lost a lot of blood already.
Knife wounds. Very brutal. | can not give you any reply now, Your Highness. | just have checked him and see if
any vital organs were affected in the process. Did he run here?" The man stared at my face. Céntent
"es."
He sighed. "Body movement during serious injury can also be risky as svital parts can be thoroughly
stressed and if not attended to on time, the patient can die."
"Do everything in your medical power to make sure he does not die, | beg you." Fagel must not die. Also, |
needed to know what he had found...or not found.
