Unknown A notification on my phone pulls me out of my slumber, and I growl softly as I realize I only dozed off for a little while. I see I have an email from a friend, and I quickly read through it, making me cuss and swear as I do. My Wolf is very pissed off, and if I hadn't stopped him, every Wolf and Lycan for miles around would have known my whereabouts. I am conflicted on what to do: I could stay here in hiding and hope they try to grab her here where I can help, or I can go and find her to warn her about the danger ahead of her. I think it is time I finally do what Ma has been asking me for years: to quit this job of mine. Ma never liked the thin line between legal and illegal I walked for so many years; she knows I never did it for the money—at least not after my first big assignment. An Alpha was suspicious of his Brother's chosen Mate, and he hired me to find out everything I could about her. I didn't only uncover what she intended to do to his Pack, but also that she had two Packs as a back-up, and I found out this wasn't the first time she had done it. I was able to find out which Pack was her first victim and where she hid the finances she stole. All four Alphas decided to reward me for a job well done, and I received more payment than I had agreed upon with my employer, but they told me they would have lost much more if I hadn't found the truth. My Alpha helped me to invest my payment, and I have more money than I will be able to spend in a lifetime. "Let's warn Umayza. She might not like you at first, but when she hears the whole story, she might forgive you." Jasper, my Wolf, says, and I know he is right; she deserves to know the truth. I check the list of options I made for them to stay at, and I make my way over to the first Hotel. I have checked every Hotel on my list, and it is nearing midnight when I decide to head to the small park with rental cottages to try my luck there. "Maybe they are staying on Pack grounds," I say to Jasper, but he doesn't agree with me. I walk around the terrain to see where they might be staying, and that is when I feel someone looking at me. My first instinct is to jump into the shadows, but I just stop dead in my tracks. Alexia I am standing guard on the front porch of the cottage when I see movement from my right side, and I let my eyes glide in that direction until I see a male walking around. The moment my eyes land on him, he stops walking and just stands there; he is 6'1" with light brown hair and brown eyes. I don't take my eyes off him as I link Theron and Callan to alert them to the guy's presence; it doesn't take long before I see him lifting his hands up, and I realize he is showing me he has no ill intentions. Then why does he look so familiar to me? My eyes are still on him when I see Theron coming up behind him, and when he turns his head to face Theron, I remember why he looks so familiar: he is the male from the security footage. "That is the guy that has been watching Umayza for over a month now," I shout through the mind-link for everyone to hear. The door behind me opens to reveal Blaze and Tarja—not that I am looking at them; I can sense that they are the ones standing behind me. Conri links us all that Umayza wants to talk to the guy; she wants to know why he is following her and how he found out where she would be. "Let's go inside; we have a few questions for you," Theron says as he guides the guy towards the cottage, and when he is right in front of me, I see his eyes aren't just brown—they are chocolate brown. I step aside to let him and Theron pass, before I follow them into the cottage with Blaze and Tarja right behind me.
