I CAN BE ALPHA

Chapter 7

“Have you viewed Catherine ?” Jason’s mother leaned over and requested worriedly.

Hearing Catherine ’s identify all of a unexpected made my heart beat like it was hit by lightning. Even I did now not understand why I would have such a atypical reaction. I was like a toddler who had carried out some thing incorrect and was afraid that the adults would find out.

“Didn’t she say she had some thing to do at the packhouse?”

“Yes, I idea she was at the residence too, however it’s been greater than two hours. Today’s gathering is her favorite. How ought to she not be again for so long?” Jason’s mother’s voice used to be trembling.

I tried my fine to seize the scent of orchid in the air. Indeed, the scent was getting fainter and fainter. She was certainly not nearby.

“I’ll go locate her! She might be in hassle and want help.” Jason put down his glass and stood up to leave.

“We’ll go with you. It’ll be quicker if we have more people.” To now not be suspected, I supplied to help.

Jason, his parents, and I observed her scent to the woods, however her scent was getting fainter and fainter. We should solely circle in the woods like a bunch of fools Catherine had played.

The ethereal sense of guilt disappeared. I was confident in my coronary heart that it was the proper selection to reject her today. If I have been to be with such a weak-minded person every day, I would go crazy. Catherine would use her willfulness to spoil such a completely satisfied nighttime party!

If it weren’t for her stubbornness, I would be drinking beer now, waiting to see the warm women dance. Maybe after tonight, I ought to locate a mate for myself to make her fully despair.

“Look! What’s that?” Jason exclaimed and ran forward. This was the quickest he had run on the grounds that I met him.

There was a stunning burgundy bow on the ground. Just a second ago, its owner used to be crying in the front of me.

I saved the disdainful hushing in my heart. This was something the coward used to scare people. She wouldn’t dare to jump from such a high place!

Oliver Sean’s POV:

I caught my head out and seemed at the backside of the cliff. The cliff used to be high, and even I felt a little scared. The river flowing below sounded like blood dashing in the blood vessels.

A piece of white material was putting on the branch, very conspicuous.

Jason’s mom came over. Her lips trembled as she said, “That is what Catherine wore today! She absolutely jumped!”

She supported her head with her left hand and leaned in opposition to Jason’s father.

She used to be right. The solely element that made me sense cosy was on Catherine . The scent of the little orchid had totally disappeared at the aspect of the cliff. She had jumped. What a foolish human. She couldn’t even take such a minor blow. She used to be the weakest person in the world.

Jason couldn’t be afflicted to comfort his grieving mother, who was on the verge of fainting. So instead, he discovered a way to the bottom of the cliff.

I followed him down but now not to find Catherine . I was afraid that she would leave at the back of some evidence that would factor to me. I felt suffocated at the thought of it.

I used to be about to end up the Alpha of my pack, and a man or woman who forced his human beings to die used to be now not a trait of a successor. My father would reprimand me and perhaps even ask me to make an apology to them in front of the total pack.

We effectively reached the bottom of the cliff. There was nothing here. It was easy as if Catherine had in no way been here. If not for the shredded material caught on the branch, we would not have determined some thing if we had been a day later.

She appeared to have suddenly melted into the water, simply like the peculiar stories of fairies I had heard when I was young. She had turn out to be one with this region forever.

Jason’s tears were already flowing down his cheeks.

I opened my mouth to relief him. Perhaps Catherine had a chance of surviving, but we each knew that at such a high altitude, even if there have been water below, it would be not going for her to survive. It would be tough for her to survive, even if she were a werewolf, let on my own a human besides a single muscle in her body working normally.

It was as if some thing was stuck in my throat. The scent had totally disappeared from the surface of the river. Her body would possibly have already appeared a few miles away, or she might have become meals to other beasts. Just a few hours ago, she commonplace my rejection.

This unusual feeling made me feel heavy. I patted Jason’s shoulder, and we again the way we came. His parents were ready for us to deliver some top news, however their ultimate hope was shattered.

She blanketed her face and let out a cry of severe grief after a long time. Her physique saved twitching. A mom had misplaced her daughter.

I didn’t dare to lookinto her teary eyes. If she knew I was the fundamental cause Catherine jumped off the cliff, I would lose their kindness and love forever. At the identical time, I would also lose my accurate friend, Jason.

The high-quality way was to cover up this matter. I need to go to Catherine ’s room to check it absolutely so that she didn’t depart something destructive to me behind.

We bowed our heads and back to the banquet. Father requested Jason what happened, showing deep concern. Taking care of absolutely everyone in the pack used to be his duty as an Alpha and mine. I hope that earlier than I come to be an Alpha, he would not find out about this.

His father had gathered the whole pack to search for Catherine . For the sake of such a useless human, the entire pack was compelled to be put on the shade of sadness on the night time of the full Hale. Her departure used to be indeed a sensible decision. At least from these days onward, the pack would no longer have such moments again.

“Hey, Father. I’ll go to Catherine ’s room to take a look. There would possibly be some evidence.” I pretended to be satisfied and requested my father alone, however I didn’t dare to look him in the eye, fearing he would odor that something was incorrect with me.

“Go, this is also your take a look at earlier than you officially turn out to be an Alpha.”

I easily entered Catherine ’s room. There was nothing interior other than the fleeting scent of the little orchid. She had very few matters as if she was ready to go away this location at any time.

No be counted what, I heaved a sigh of comfort that there used to be no diary or a note.

I heard people shouting Catherine ’s identify outside. This made me experience very irritated. She didn’t know how to pick out the proper time. It was probably that no one would be in a position to get a precise night’s sleep tonight.

Just like I said, we were divided into countless corporations and searched along each possible path, however we observed nothing.

Jason and his parents stood in the middle of the crowd. From their ashen faces, it may want to be considered that they had normal that they had lost Catherine forever.

I should see Jason’s mother’s tears and father’s sigh. They had dealt with that susceptible human as their blood-related relative.

I shook my head and tried to neglect Catherine ’s face. I need to now not have such a robust experience of duty and mistakenly blame her weak point on myself. It used to be she who selected this path, all due to the fact of a single rejection.

I regarded at the river’s last bend that disappeared round the corner. She would not have survived this.

I observed my father to their household to remedy the couple who had lost their family member.

The Lycan King’s POV:

I all of sudden woke up.

All these years, I’d been having the equal habitual dream.

Because of that accident, my daughter disappeared. I couldn’t do some thing about it and may want to only cry helplessly.

Perhaps I’d been under too a great deal strain recently, however I dreamed of other things I hadn’t dreamed of for a long time: the forest, the lake, and the sound of sad crying.
