Chapter 105 Manipulate
Special POV (Elliot’s POV)
”You mean alpha Michael?” he asked with stunned eyes while I nodded my head and stood up from the couch. ”Don’t worry, he won’t do anything to you, I just want you to manipulate his mind, that’s all.” I assured him, walked over to him and gently tapped his shoulders.
He took in a deep breath and nodded his head in approval to my words.
”What do you want me to say to him?” he asked.
I gently ran my fingers through my hair as I thought of what he had to say to Mike so that Eric wouldn’t come looking for Victoria or have any idea that I had her.
After a few minutes of contemplating, I smiled when a perfect thought came to my head. ”Come, allow me to explain it to you.” he moved closer to me and I explained everything to him and told him what he should say to Michael.
”I can do that.” he spoke confidently.
”Very good, let’s go.” I smiled at him and stood up from the couch, while he followed me.
We got to my basement, I opened the door and went in with Samuel.
We entered the basement and found mike tied to the bed with two of my men beside him.
”Get me out of here.” he yelled in anger as I ignored him and signaled Samuel to take the seat before mike.
”Made him lock eyes with me.” Samuel whispered to my hearing.
I nodded my head and whispered those words to my men, who nodded their heads and dragged him out of the bed.
”Get your hands off me, do you know who you are dealing with, I’m the alpha of a well-known pack.”he yelled at the top of his voice, which made me chuckle before speaking, ”Everyone knows how weak you are, you only became an alpha because of your father, you are not worthy to be called an alpha.” I muttered those words angrily and made him stood before Samuel.
”What do you want to do to me?” Mike asked in fear as he noticed Samuel’s eyes turning gray.
With fear, he tried moving away, but my grips were still strong for him.
I took hold of his face and forcefully made him lock eyes with Samuel, who stared back at him and started murmuring words I couldn’t hear.
He kept murmuring those words for a while until he took in a deep breath and moved his gaze to me.
”It’s finished, you can ask him.” Samuel tried standing up, but he lost his balance. Quickly, I took hold of him and asked my men to take him to one of the guest rooms, so he could rest.
After Samuel left the basement with my men, I took the seat before Mike, who collapsed on the floor while he was sweating profusely.
I inhaled deeply and prayed it worked before speaking up.
”Where is Victoria?” I asked,
”I don’t know.” he grumbled.
I groaned and thought for a while before speaking. ”I know you took her, so tell me where she is.” I asked again,
He shook his head but did not say a word, which angered me.
”Where is Victoria?” I yelled at the top of my voice.
”She is dead.” he murmured,
I released a heavy sigh of relief after hearing those words from him.
I noticed he kept murmuring words that I couldn’t hear, but I wasn’t bothered about it.
”Where is her dead body?” I asked,
He gulped and thought for a while before he spoke up. ”I threw the body on the bridge.” he spoke slowly while in deep thoughts.
Hearing those words from him, I smiled at myself, stood up from the chair and left the room.
I went outside the room and told my men to take him back to his house and act like nothing happened.
After that, I took my phone from my pocket and dialed a number. It rang a few times before it was picked.
”Hello sir.” he greeted,
”Is everything ready.” I asked,
”Yes, sir.”
”Thanks.” I muttered and ended the call.
I walked to the room where Victoria was resting. I knocked on the door gently before entering the room. I got in and saw Victoria sitting on the bed while in deep thoughts as tears fell freely on her cheek.
I sighed as I walked towards her and sat beside her. She noticed my presence and quickly wiped off the tears on her face and released a heavy sigh.
”Everything is set, we will be leaving in an hour.” I announced.
She nodded her head but did not say a word. I stared at her and noticed she was in deep pain and shock. The pain of losing her pregnancy and finding out Eric was Tim all along, brought a different type of pain to her.
I moved closer to her and tried to comfort her, but I held back myself and quickly stood up from the bed.
”Don’t worry about your Aunt, I will take care of her. I smiled at her before going to the door.
”Thank you.” I heard her soft whisper before I closed the door.
Alpha Eric’s POV
I slowly stood up from the ground and made my way home, still in my wolf form. I approached my gate and saw Kelvin standing by the door with my clothes in his hands.
I howled in pain and slowly stood by the entrance of my sitting room before I slowly shifted to my human form.
Kelvin gave the clothes to me and went inside the house. Tiredly, I put on the clothes and walked inside the house, only to see dad in the sitting room.
I slowly walked to him and gave him a tight hug ”It’s okay son, everything will be okay.” he muttered and gently tapped my hair.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and slowly moved away from dad and took the seat opposite him.
”Where is he?” I asked while staring around,
”He is downstairs in one of the rooms.” Kelvin announced.
I took in a deep breath and closed my eyes to ease the pain I was feeling in my heart.
”What else did he say?” I asked, curious.
”Nothing, and I can’t access everything in his heart.” Kelvin murmured.
I stood up from the couch and slowly walked upstairs to my room. I went to my room and shut the door behind me.
I sat on the floor with my back to the door as I felt hot tears running down my cheek, while I wailed in pain as the thought of losing Victoria buzzed in my head.
My wolf was silent, totally quiet, I couldn’t feel the presence of my wolf and I knew it was the effect of losing his mate.
Lazily, I stood up from the floor and walked over to the bar in my room. I took out a bottle of whiskey, opened it and poured a large quantity into my mouth.
I choked for air as I hurriedly swallowed the drink in my mouth. I drank everything in the bottle and threw it on the floor.
”No!” I sat on the floor and screamed at the top of my voice as Mike’s words kept ringing in my head.
”No, no, no.” I shouted in pain and started throwing things on the wall of my room. I cried out and picked up anything my hands could hold and threw them on the wall with anger and pain.
”Eric.” I heard dad’s voice at my door, but I ignored him and kept throwing things at the wall.
”Eric, calm down, you will hurt yourself.” Kelvin shouted from outside the door,
”Don’t tell me to fucking calm down.” I yelled in pain.
”She was carrying my baby, she was pregnant for me.” I wailed in pain and collapsed on the floor as I wept profusely.
”She was so full of life and wanted nothing but love, but what did she get? She met her untimely death.” I muttered in anger.
”Mike.” I yelled out his name, stood up from the floor, and rushed to the door.
I opened the door and met dad and Kelvin by my door, but I pushed them aside and rushed to my basement. I opened the door and saw Mike seated on the floor with his eyes closed. ”Micheal.” I yelled his name and rushed to him. Furiously, I yanked him up from the floor and punched him on his face, giving him another bruise on his face.
”How dare you, how dare you touch Victoria when she was carrying my baby.” I yelled at the top of my voice and gave him another punch on the face. He yelled in pain and screamed at the top of his voice.
”You killed Victoria while she was carrying my unborn child, how dare you.” I muttered out in pain and threw him on the floor.
He screamed at the top of his voice in pain as he tried to move away from me, but I picked him up, not minding the kind of pain he was going through, and threw him at the wall. Angrily, I went for him and tried to grab him, but I felt a stronger hand on me which made me groan angrily because I knew who it was without looking behind.
”Let go of me, father.” I yelled in anger and tried taking his grip off me, but he was too strong for me and I did not want to hurt him.
”You won’t get anything from killing him.” Dad yelled and pulled me away from Mike.
”Let’s go.” he dragged me out from the basement to the living room.
I groaned in anger as I felt my hands still vibrating in anger. Grunting angrily, I closed my eyes and tried to ease the anger in me, but it wasn’t helping.
”Calm down, Eric, I know how you feel.” Dad mumbled those words and sat beside me.
”I can’t believe all this is real, something tells me something is wrong.” Father mumbled those words, almost to himself.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
I shook my head in pain as the memories of Victoria kept playing in my head. With my heart aching with pain, I arched my head backward and placed it on the chair with my eyes still closed.
”She was pregnant dad, she was pregnant for me, and I did not know about it.” I murmured in pain.
”I’m finished dad, I can’t take this, I just can’t.” I sobbed in pain and tapped my foot on the floor.
I heard Dad release a heavy sigh, but did not say a word. We sat there in silence without saying a word until I opened my eyes and met eyes with dad, who was staring at me with a pitiful look.
”I never knew you loved her this much.” Dad shook his head in regret and gently tapped my shoulder.
”She was an amazing woman, but I realized it far too late, and now the moon goddess has to punish me for all my sins.” I gulped in tears and scattered my hair with my fingers.
”You will be okay, you will pass through this…” I did not let those words leave his lips before I cut him off.
”No father, I’m slowly dying inside me, my wolf is already dead, and I think I will join him soon.”
”Don’t say that Eric, you won’t die, neither is your wolf dead, he is just crying for the death of his mate, but that does not mean you will not get through this. Son, if I could get through your mother’s death and still stand strong then you, my son, will get through Victoria’s death, and you will stand strong.” Dad patted my shoulder and took in a deep breath before getting up from the couch.
”I have already sent some men to find some divers that can go look for her body on the bridge, we need to find her body so that we can give her a befitting burial.” hearing those words from dad I shook my head and wailed in pain, wishing all this was just a dream and that I will wake up from it.
”Have some rest.” Dad flashed me a weak smile before walking away.
I relaxed on the couch with my eyes closed as the memories I had with Victoria kept flashing in my head.
I opened my eyes, slowly stood up from the couch and made my way to my room. I took off my clothes and walked into the bathroom. I took a slow shower and went back to my room where I saw a tray of food being placed on my table. I groaned and put on a shirt and sweatpants before going downstairs.
I got downstairs and saw Kelvin sitting in the living room with my aunt.
Aunt saw me and rushed to me as she gave me a tight hug.
”Aunt.” I cried out, this is the first time, in the past seventeen years that I have been this helpless and heartbroken.
”It’s okay.” aunt tried comforting me like she did seventeen years ago, but this time it wasn’t working.
”I lost her aunt, she was my mate and I couldn’t protect her. I never showed her love, neither did I tell her how much I love her, and now she is gone just like that.” I murmured in tears.
Aunt released a heavy sigh and kept murmuring comforting words that I didn’t pay attention to.
I broke from her embrace and took the seat beside Kelvin without saying a word.
”Have you had anything.” he asked, but I ignored him and closed my eyes with so many thoughts in my head.
I was supposed to reveal myself to Victoria after my trip from China, I was supposed to ask for her forgiveness and tell her how much I had grown to love her, but all that was cut short right before my eyes.
”I can’t seem to access his mind further than when he adopted her from the bar. I have tried several times, but it seems like he is preventing me from going further.” Kelvin murmured.
”There is no need for that, he has already confessed, so I see no need for that.” I murmured and opened my eyes.
Aunt sat opposite me while staring at me with a pitiful look, but I ignored her and moved my gaze to the floor as I felt a sharp pain piercing my heart.
We all sat there in silence and none of us said a word until dad walked in and roughly ran his fingers into his hair, still in deep thoughts. Seeing him that way, I knew something was wrong.
”What’s the matter?” I asked,
Dad shook his head before speaking, ”The divers we sent to search for Victoria’s body couldn’t find her body, not even a trace of her things.”dad muttered with confusion written all over his face.
”If there is no trace of her, that means she was never thrown there and Micheal was lying to us…” I did not let those words finish from Kevin’s lips when I stood up from the couch and rushed to the basement.
