Sold To My Alpha Mate

Venom’s POV

What Maya had brought to me was an eye opener to what might have happened to Caleb even if I couldn’t totally deduce what that was and what might have happened.

I was in the room analyzing and doing little research before phoning a forensic investigator and a doctor to help with what I had found. I went back out to find Maya, she was still waiting for me even after I had left.

My brain had completely zoned out when I saw what she handed to me.

We sat there still looking at the bag when the people arrived. They were let in, it was a command I made already before they arrived.

“Who are these?” Maya asked me as she looked at the people who were standing before us.

“They’re friends from work, we can talk about that later. ” I told her politely and invited the man and woman to my office.

I had brought the bag alongside and it was the first thing I handed to them once they settled in.

“I found this at home, right under my brother’s window and I’d like to know what it is and if anything can be found. Like, some sort of DNA, I don’t know, just get me anything.” I instructed them.

They both passed it to each other and looked at what I had given them.

” I’m also sorry for calling you on such short notice.” I told them.

” Alright, no problem. We’ll check it out and make sure to send whatever we can find to you.”

There was nothing more I could ask for and they were dispersed. As soon as they left, I went to join Maya who was in the room.

” I know I have a lot to say.” I spoke first, before she did. She was probably annoyed at the way I had left her out of everything.

“Okay, I’ll be listening to you to hear what you have to say then.” Sh replied to me and I chuckled.

“They were here to help check what you gave to me. One of them is a forensic investigator and the other, a doctor from the hospital. Is that okay with you?” She still feigned anger, but I knew she didn’t mean anything.

I went closer to her and held her closer, ” I’m sorry. I just wasn’t myself and I really need something to be found regarding this situation.” I told her.

” There’s no problem,” she said calmly and rested her head on my chest.

“Thank you,” I replied to her.

We were there on the bed for a while before she fell asleep. My mind wouldn’t even let me do that it just rambled thinking different thoughts.

What bothered me the most was Alex’s death, but I couldn’t even come up with a reasonable explanation to myself for his death. He was never someone who had enemies or issues, he was introverted and who could have killed him so easily?

I gently moved away from where she was sleeping on the bed and went around trying to observe his room. I walked inside and everything seemed to be just as he left it the day he was attacked.

I restricted the cleansers from doing anything so that we could come investigate it later. As I walked in and checked out the environment, I tried to see if I could decipher anything that might have been out of place, but I didn’t get anything.

My head was blank and I felt stressed even staying inside. The tears that I had been holding back all through the funeral and everything that happened in the hospital, they broke out.

There was nothing I could do to hold them back, I stayed by the window where I could see the skies from.

Somehow, I was praying to gods that they would answer and help me. Maybe send a sign about how he died or something, anything.

The clock was ticking and it was loud and clear. The midnight amplified every sound. I imagined what he might have been doing during his last minutes before something happened to him.

There was too much that was affecting my head and I feared it would be lethal if I didn’t leave eventually.

I got out of the room and went outside. I couldn’t stand it anymore, if I stayed any longer, I would finally break down.

I left there and went to the room, Maya had changed positions already too. Everything seemed to be passing by apart from the emotions I was feeling about the things that happened.

The room felt congested and I wasn’t outside to sleep in the parlor. It helped my mind that was running on different thoughts and wouldn’t just calm itself. It helped the pain I felt for losing my brother and the heartbreak.

When I woke up the next morning, everyone was awake already and it was Caleb who came to tap me.

“What are you doing here? Why didn’t you sleep in the room?” He questioned me.

I rubbed my eye and stood up from the bed, “oh, I fell asleep.” I replied to him and tried to move away from the couch.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Don’t be too hard on yourself.” He told me.

I smiled at him, he was young but he was holding himself better than I probably was. I felt too weak.

“Thank you, Caleb and keep it up. You’ve done well.” I applauded him.

He was doing an impressive job at staying sane with everything going on.

I went to the room and met Maya still sleeping. I imagined how exhausted she must have been. I never really got to connect with her to know what was going on with her and her emotions.

I was probably too emotionally disconnected from her. I felt guilty about it, but there was too much to handle already. I glanced at her one last time and thought to myself, ” I’ll make it to her.”

It was the least I could try to do.
