Chapter 86
*xkkxErika's POV*¥kkx
"Please d-don't whipagain, Alpha. I'm sorry but they would kill my family if they knew.” She moved back in
fear, tears streaming down her eyes.
"Why you? Of all the people to use, why did they choose you?" | had a lot of questions to ask. | was still not
satisfied, | wanted answers.
This girl might be lying, | would try to take everything she said with a pinch of salt, but | would still use it to
properly start my investigation.
"I don't know, | swear | don't. | just received a letter anonymously one tand | was told what to do." She said.
"What were you told to do?" | went back to seat, | was so tired. | just wanted all of this to end. Paula and Kat
squeezed my hands, | smiled at them both. | was grateful to have them.
"To deliver information." She sniffled.
"Why did you not ctowith this news, | would have protected your family and even you?" | yelled in
agony and anger.
She kept mute.
"Answer me!" | bellowed.
"Except she does not have a family." Paula pointed out, observing Melisse's features. "Has she ever told you of
any family member, Rika?"
| shook my head. "No." She had the guts to lie to my face.

"What were you doing standing before the door of the room | was in with my mate?" Paula asked her.
"What?!" Kat and | looked at her.
Paula nodded. "Yes. Now that | think of it, she was there. Then | had not thought anything about it, but now that
this whole issue is arising, | want to know what she was doing there."
Oh my goodness! She was not just a snitch but a liar. “Is this true?" My rage had increased, it was as though |
was having chest burn. | stood with the whip. "And you had the guts to lie to me?"
"Okay fine." She screamed, more tears fell from her eyes. "There is not family, | don't have any. But | needed the
money, they agreed to pay. | want a better life for myself, is that bad? I'm an only child and my parents are dead,
why do | have to keep suffering with no good result? See you...argghhh"
I did not let her continue, | landed the whip on her again. | did it care where the cane was landing, | wanted her
to feel pain.
Kat cto stop me. "You will kill her, Rika. We still need her to give us more information."
"I'm sorry, Alpha. | just wanted a better life, please I'm sorry. | did not intend for this to happen." She pleaded,
crying profusely.
"Were you the one who gave information about Jace's leave?" Kat fumed.
"Y-yes. The day | overheard the Alpha and His Highness arguing near the stairs, that was the day | knew he had
plans of leaving. | called them to inform them, later that day, a package was anonymously sent to me, | opened
it to see it was a tracker and information on how to use it..."
"You!" It was Kat's turn to be mad.
"Let her finish, Kat.” Paula said, trying to calm her down.
"On the day you both had that fight returning from the meeting, | was also there but | was unseen. When he
went inside to pack his bags, monitored. | already knew the vehicle he would be using, so following the
instructions, put the tracker under the car where he won't
easily see it. As soon as he left, |
called them to tell them he had left."
| growled, my wolf was trying to get out of control. Kat who had toldto stop flogging her, took the whip and
continued from where | stopped. She screamed and pleaded until her voice bechoarse. She remained lying
on the floor, too weak to stand up.
"Now tell us, who are these people?" | wondered how Paula was still able to remain calm in all of this.
"N-no." She was trembling and stuttering.
| kicked her back, she howled in pain. | took the knife and sliced her already peeled and bleeding skin on her
back, she could not scream much but she felt the pain, | noticed this from her jerky movements.
"No, you won't tell us or no..." Paula further interrogated.
"The deal is the day | o-open m-my m-mouth to reveal their identity, I'll die. They will kill me."
"So you'd rather the Alpha kills you?" This was from an angry Kat.
"Y-yes. T-t-they are m-mean. Plus, | d-don't really know them. | have only met one...p-person. He was the one w-
who said I'll die if | talk."
Angry and frustrated, | kicked her smore. She just moaned in pain. Drained and confused, | sank back into
my chair. "Guards, take her to the cell, bound her hands and
legs, also I need four of you
guarding the cell. We have to be careful what we know what we're up against."
To her, | said This is not over, not by a long shot. And the next t| bring you out of that cell, | want answers
else, I'll kill you for real And trust me, | have very creative ways to make your death horrible and painful, even in
your grave, you'll still feel the pain of how you died." | spat on her.
"Also, | want you to check her room. Look for any evidence, | need something. A
clue, alright?" | instructed the guards.
"Yes, Alpha." They lifted her and proceeded to drag her outside.
"Alpha, please. Pardon me, I'm sorry." Her voice was low and defeated.
"Take this traitor away." | commanded.
I and my friends walked back to my room, each to their own bed. "What do we do
now?" | looked at them both.
"She has made a deal with very bad people." Kat stated.
"Exactly. We just have to wait and hope that the guards find something relevant.
At least, something good cout of this night." This was from Paula.
Kat and | understood what that good thing was.
Jace was alive and responding to treatment.
