Chapter 75: _Another One Bites The Dust
"Well, it seems you’re going to be busy, Kaelos." Alpha King Leonardo muttered after Gamma Zane came with his report. "I hope you and your territory manage to... Pull through with this."
I parted my lips to say something but before I could, he locked his car door, allowing his driver to drive off alongside all the other cars containing his delegates.
I clenched my jaw, watching as the cars drove out of the compound.
"Do you have any news about the welcoming ball last night or what?" I asked my uncle, Gamma Zane, glancing at him before I walked toward Marcellus.
Marcellus had a wry smile on his face as he tapped me on my shoulder. "You had no control over that situation with Alpha King Leonardo. You tried your best if you ask me."
I simply nodded my head at him before focusing my gaze on my uncle. His lips parted open before he let out a sigh and began.
"A dead body was found in front of the house of pack doctor Abel." He announced, causing a cold shiver to run down my spine.
I glanced at Marcellus who also had a stunned expression on his face. Pack doctor Abel was the man who treated his wound last night.
"Have you been able to identify who the victim is? Or the cause of death?" I queried, my expression and voice calm.
I couldn’t let myself get shaken by such news.
"The victim is Abel’s wife, Elsa. And her corpse was burnt badly but we aren’t even sure if that’s the cause of her death." Gamma Zane said solemnly.
