REX'S POV

As I stood before the guards who had allowed Raina to leave the pack boundaries against my orders, anger burned within me like a raging fire. Their betrayal had cost me my sister, and there would be no forgiveness for such negligence.

I asked them severally how it happened and when but they seemed to have no idea about it. How's that possible? Was Raina a needle? Or has she turned to breeze that one cannot notice or get hold of?

Then, it was either they were bribed by her or they were hiding the truth from me. But my patience wore thin and I couldn't wait for their response any longer.

"You have betrayed the trust of this pack," I thundered, my voice echoing through the meeting hall. "And for that, there will be consequences."

Their faces paled with fear as they shifted nervously under my gaze, but their feeble excuses fell on deaf ears.

"We were just following orders, Alpha," one of them stammered, his voice trembling with fear. "We didn't mean any harm."

But their words only fueled my frustration. "You were entrusted with the safety of this pack and it's members, and you failed miserably," I spat, my patience wearing thin.

Their pleas for leniency fell on deaf ears as I pronounced their sentence with a heavy heart. "You will be executed at dawn," I declared, my voice heavy with

sorrow.

"Rex, you're doing this wrongly." My Beta intervened in their stead but I was way too angry and pained to listen.

"You can say that to me when you know how it feels to lose your sister, the only family you have left!" I fired at him but he was intimidated.

"Fine, I understand you. But..."

"You understand nothing!" I cut him off.

"How about we put them in prison first? They might as well be of use later." He suggested through our mind link.

Now, I was left with the maids, Raina's maids. I instructed the head maid to fish out the new one assigned to her and send her to me. Then, I began questioning her as soon as she showed up.

As soon as the maid arrived, I wasted no time in questioning her, my tone firm but measured.

"You were assigned to Raina," I began, my eyes boring into hers.

"Yes, Alpha Rex." She answered

"Tell me everything you know about her activities leading up to her death."

"She's dead?" The maid's hands began to trembled.

"Do you know something?" I asked, focusing more on her. Seemed like she'll be of help in some way.

Her hands trembled more as she spoke, her voice barely above a whisper. She recounted the events of the past few days, her words painting a picture of Raina's restlessness and determination to leave the pack boundaries despite my warnings.

"There was a day she returned from your office and she was really angry and upset about something. I tried asking her what was wrong but she wouldn't say anything to me. Instead, she began pacing to and fro all about the room, muttering words to herself."

"Did you hear anything she was saying?"

"I'm not quite sure about that. But I think I had her saying things like; she can't get married to him...this can be.... and some other things I can't really place my

hands on."

"So, what happened after then?" I pressed the maid for further details, determined to unravel the mystery surrounding my sister's death, no matter the cost. Only then would justice be served, and the truth revealed.

"By that time, it was evening and I was about to prepare her bed so that she

could retire for the night but she asked me to go prepare her leisure outfit. I asked her where she was going but she wouldn't tell me."

"Then, you prepared the outfit, right?"

"I......." She stuttered as she avoided my gaze

"Speak, young lady, before I descend my wrath on you."

Lowering herself more, she pleaded.

"I'm so sorry, Alpha Rex. I had no choice but to do whatever she told me to. I'm nothing but just a maid here and I have no power to oppose her."

Like I knew it, she aided Raina in whatever she did.

"You are just a maid but you had the power to report to me whatever she did. I

told you to report every of her action which seemed strange to me but you failed to do so. You fucking failed in your responsibility. You led her to her death." I fired at the maid, full of anger.

"I admit my mistake, Alpha, and I'm willing to be punished for it in any way you

want, but trust me, I didn't allow her go out. I prepared the clothes just like she asked of me, but I blocked her path strongly when she wanted to proceed."

"Then, how did she leave if you did that?" I retorted.

"It seemed like you used a talisman on me because I didn't know what happened for a while, not until she returned the next morning."

As I listened, a nagging sense of doubt crept into my mind. Could there be more

to Raina's actions than met the eye? And if so, what secrets lay hidden beneath

the surface?

"A talisman? How did she get it?"

"I have no idea how she got it just like I had no idea what she went out to do and

why she went there.""

"But how did you come to the conclusion that she used a talisman on you?"

"I figured it out after checking her wardrobe when I didn't see her. One of the talismans there was missing and I placed the puzzle." She explained. "But why didn't you report all these?" I was angry beyond control. "Now, it's too

late!"

My Beta dismissed her quickly with a motion of his hand, just before I could pass my verdict on her. He knew if

she waited in front of me any longer, I might pass a very harsh verdict on her and it wouldn't be that good because deep down, I knew it wasn't her fault. I knew

just how Raina could be.
