Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 212: Breaking Open (2)

Inez could sense that the elderly woman was just a step away from calling the policemen.

"She is right; we should do something instead of sitting inside the car," said Laxus. Even though he had no fondness for humans, he didn’t want to cause any drama in the middle of a human locality.

Killian squeezed her shoulder before taking a look at the woman who was eyeing them through the window. "Don’t worry; as soon as Levi calls, we will get out of the car. Anyway, we have done nothing wrong. I don’t believe that the policemen would arrest us for sitting in our own damn car." noveldrama

Looking at the way the woman was peeling her upper lip and glowering at them as if she knew what they were, Inez had a feeling that she wouldn’t care about whether they were doing anything wrong or not.

Fortunately, before the woman could call the policemen, Levi called them.

Killian immediately put him on the speaker. "What’s the situation?"

"It’s like Laxus said; there is no soul in this house. I did a perimeter check of the house, but I cannot see a single living soul. It’s completely silent with no movement inside."

"Do you sense any traces of witches?" Killian asked with a frown.

"I cannot be sure of this, though the entire house is quiet... There are indeed some disturbances, which are a bit weird."

"Alright, we will go inside and investigate. Hang in there; we will be right there," said Killian as he ended the call.

"We cannot just barge inside the house," said Inez with a frown as she peered at the house in front of her. "If we all rush in there, I am sure that the people in the locality will definitely call the policemen."

Nyx sighed. "As annoying as it sounds, she is right. I can almost see the old woman pondering if she should call the policemen or not."

She paused and added, "Cross that; she is certain that she needs to call the police."

"It will be best if we leave the SUV and walk around the locality before making our way to the back door. Levi will open the door for us." Finn peered out of the window and laid out the plan.

And that was exactly what they did.

With shifters determined to break into the house, there was no way the security equipment had a chance against their strength. It didn’t take longer than five minutes for them to open the back door of the house. Quickly, they stepped inside the house, making sure that they were stealthy enough for no one to sense them entering the space.

Not that there was anyone. As Inez stopped at the last stair of the basement, she realised that they had completely wasted their time. The house was — what should she say—as human as it could possibly be. There were pictures of the human couple, followed by their degrees and every little human achievement that they had achieved in their lives. If she was not wrong, she could also see a few books on pregnancy.

She glanced at Killian and said to him, "If this is all a pretence to fool us, then I have to admit that the witches did a really good job."

Killian hummed. "I just took a look at the kitchen; the refrigerator is stocked up, and there is a half-eaten loaf of bread lying on the aisle. Either this human couple is real, or the witches have been here."

"The house smells of humans," Inez pointed out.

"Hey, guys," Finn’s voice echoed from upstairs, and the two of them turned and looked up. "You need to come upstairs. We have found the computer."

Upon hearing his remark, Inez marched upstairs with Killian. The two of them arrived at a small office, where the navigator that was in Finn’s hand was going crazy. This was something that Matt had given to them earlier. He told them that as long as they found the hacked computer, the navigator would start going crazy.

And it was indeed going crazy.

Inez looked at the navigator that was uttering a loud peeee and then turned to look at Finn and the rest. "Thats all?"

Finn gritted his teeth before saying, "The witches are not using this house as their hideout, and even if they were, they have long abandoned it."

"Which brings us back to the old topic. We have a traitor in the pack," chimed Ajax as he banged his hand on the computer. "I looked around the house. There is a thick layer of dirt, which proves that the humans left in a hurry and hadn’t returned yet; however, this computer, on the other hand, is quite clean. The witches were here just a few hours ago, but they escaped. I am willing to bet on it."

Inez heard a soft rumble escape Killian’s lips, but the man didn’t say anything; he simply glanced at the computer before saying, "We will leave the matter of the traitor for now. We need to get our hands on the witches and their trail. If we start looking for a traitor, then it would be a serious blow to the pack’s morale. Not that they are already living in fear that the witches are regaining their lost strength."

Ajax regarded the computer. "I think we should dispose of this computer. The poor bloke has no idea that there is a trace of magic left on his computer, which could cause him some serious damage if someone else comes to track him down."

"Yeah, and breaking into his house and dumping his computer in the swimming pool sounds like a really good option." Inez rolled her eyes.

She could almost imagine the confusion of the man living in this house when he found his computer in the swimming pool. That man would not even in his wildest dreams crack the code of just what happened behind his back.

"Good suggestion, Inez. I was thinking of smashing the thing open, but dumping it down in the water works too. Less hostile, don’t you think?"
