My Mate From Another World

Kaiser

‘Ky, when do you think Adeline will come back?’ I asked my wolf. We are in a van on our way to the werewolf headquarters, which is not too far from my pack. Because of the incident report I received and the killings that I want to discuss, I decided to talk to other members who are all alphas of different packs. Misch came with me along with a few warriors, and I let Ryan and Keisha take care of everything I’d left behind.

‘Be patient and try to get used to this, Kais. We can’t do anything about it since the moon goddess paired us with someone who was not from our world.’ He replied arrogantly.

‘I know that; I just want to know because I’m missing her already. It’s been 5 days since the last time we saw each other, and I had no idea what was going on with her.’ I said it worriedly.

‘Stay calm. Let’s be thankful that we didn’t feel anything that may have been caused by her infidelity or that she’s been harmed.’

‘Do you think she will still see Mike?’ I asked fearfully.

‘Where’s your confidence, Kais? Trust her; she’ll never betray us, especially when we’ve already marked and mated with each other.’

‘I hope so, Ky. I hope so.’ I replied, ending our discussion.

“Alpha, we’re almost there.” I heard Misch say, and I nodded my head and looked ahead. We were in the back seat, while two warriors were in the driver and passenger seats. There are two other vehicles with us, one at the back and the other in front of us.

Upon leaving the parking area and entering the building, we received a warm welcome from several warriors. The vicinity of the headquarters is clean and well-maintained. I noticed the security cameras are everywhere as well. Ryan proposed the idea. Most of the members were pack elders.

Each pack chooses our best warriors to stay at the headquarters to help the council. As for me, I assigned my warrior and tracker heads on my behalf, along with their trusted subordinates.

The responsibilities as council members are too much, but we can’t do anything about it since we have our responsibilities. In the headquarters, they call me chief. And thankfully, during my leadership, council members were not as old as during my dad’s time.

“Chief,” Elder Lance of the Moon Stone Pack greeted.

“Good morning,” I said back before he led the way to our conference area on the 2nd floor. The headquarters is a 10-story building. Naturally, they utilized the rooftop as a helipad for convenient transportation. The ground floor is for the reception area, canteen, indoor recreation area, and other minor offices.

The basement is where our security system controls. There are our trusted humans who work there. Some are police officers who knew about our kind. We see to it that our kind will be on the frontlines, whatever happens. There’s a bunker in the basement to ensure our human allies are safe, if ever.

“Good morning, everyone,” I said before I sat on the chair designated for me and motioned for everyone to sit as well. “Let’s start the meeting.”

“As stated in the letter we sent you, there are dead bodies that have been found in different towns and cities. But the problem is, some family members reject the bodies, saying they’re not their relatives.” Elder Lance started. He’s in charge of the headquarters for this week, so he led the meeting as well.

“Have you talked to any of the deceased’s family members?” I asked.

“Yes, Chief. Some are still in shock, and those who refused to claim the bodies were still coherent,” he answered, looking at the other alphas who were nodding their heads in approval.

We are in a tough situation; even I was having a hard time understanding. But I’m sure that there’s an answer to everything. “They are humans, so we don’t have authority over their dead bodies. How about wolves? Or witch? Are there some cases related to supernatural beings?”

“In my pack, chief.” Elder Charlie answered, so I looked at him, and he continued. “Three of our pack warriors were found dead just outside our border, but I don’t think it was them.”

“Can you elaborate?” I asked curiously. I didn’t want this to happen, but since there was an incident in his pack, we will have the chance to do our investigation.

“I knew one of the three warriors, but when I saw his dead body in the pack hospital, there was something in me that refused to believe that it was him. I mean, he doesn’t seem to be the same warrior that I used to know. There’s something in him that didn’t match his identity when he was still alive.”

“And what is that?”

“Ear piercing. None of our warriors wear earrings, but that dead body has it on his left ear.” He answered, “Another thing is his tattoo. That warrior, as far as I know, is a clean freak. Even in their house, he sees to it that everything is spotless. How much more on his body?”

“So that’s the discrepancy that you are talking about?” I said, thinking.

“In the naked eye, you won’t see the difference if you only look at their faces. But if you look closer, you’ll know that they are not the person you think he was.” Elder Charlie added.

“That’s serious. I am facing some human killings outside my pack border as well. What scares me is… they’re targeting human girls.” I saw them looking at each other, so with a creased forehead, I asked, “Don’t tell me you have that too.”

“In our area, chief.” Elder Nick answered. “It was what we were discussing before you arrived. The girl was dried to death.”

“Alpha, I think we need to prioritize this case,” Misch said, and I nodded in agreement.

“Inform every pack to be vigilant at all times. Especially the patrol guards. Whoever committed this crime is making our border a dumpster for dead bodies. If a pack has a lot of warriors, send some of them to the neighboring packs that have a shortage of them to ensure that every part of the border of every pack will be monitored.”

“Chief, it’s not enough to be vigilant.” Elder Larusso chimed in.

“I know. That’s why I want every pack to have an investigation unit to look into each pack’s cases. I want a weekly report about the development of their investigation and the actions they take. As for me, I will keep you updated with whatever information we gather within our pack, and we will find every clue to solve and stop this crime. Be watchful with your pack members; I am happy that Elder Charlie knows their warriors personally.”

“About the killings of the girls,” Elder Lance said, “it’s not done by a vampire, according to Elder Larusso; how about you, chief?”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“That’s what we think as well. I was in the city when the incident happened, and my beta and gamma reported it to me. Upon investigation, we confirmed that vampires had nothing to do with it.” I answered, “And you’re right. I thought the same thing; we have an unknown enemy.” I added it when I saw the look on his face. It was exactly my reaction when we realized that.

We brainstormed the whole day, suggesting all possible enemies we could have that could do such killings. Vampires, faes, and dragons-but we believe none of them did it. It has been a tough day, and it would be better if I could see my mate when I come back to the pack. I hope Kylo will be able to do that.
