CHAPTER 62

Jason's POV
I never really took to heart what Melissa said but now that I think about it, I can't help but feel like Killian indeed has something up his sleeve. It was early this week or ate last week I couldn't exactly pinpoint when, but it wasn't too long ago I saw him entering the pack at past dawn. I remembered asking him where he was coming from and he said he went running an errand. Even that day, I felt like something was up with him, because of the way he looked tensed up and almost scared.
I should do something quick about Killian, I told myself. Ever since Mel and I agreed to undertake a private investigation to catch who the traitor in the pack, we've literally been friends with everybody because like the saying goes, keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Up to this moment, I've never really considered Killian as the spy. He has been so good and always obedient to carrying out orders and assignments. Hell, we've close up to the point where he now hangs out with Ian, Darl, Mel, and myself. And not just with me he was getting real close to every other person I had just mentioned.
"What are you thinking about?" Mel asked me.
"Nothing much..." She looked at me unbelievably so I continued "just thinking of possible ways to get my hand on Killian's phone" I replied to her.
"And why do you need Killian's phone?"
"To confirm what you told of course"
"Oh that. I think you shouldn't bother. It cannot be Killian... Killian cannot be the spy! Have you seen the guy carrying out his assignments? He is so diligent and hardworking."
"Yeah sure. It's not like I'm certain about anything. I just want to confirm that's all. At least after we are done, we'd be sure to have one man down to look into" I further explained.
"Alright then, big bro".
It wasn't Thursday that we usually gathered for fun with lots of girls to keep us company with some touch of alcohol and smoke but because I had other agenda up my sleeves I called the guys which included Darl, Ian, and Killian, and asked if they were all up for some video game but all claimed to be busy. They had already made plans for Friday and that doesn't include either of what I had proposed. Only Killian had said he would be through with what he was doing in a few hours and that he would join me in my apartment the minute I was true.
I was pleased with his reply at the very least. He was the one I wanted to see the most and him coming to my house would make getting his phone a much easier thing for me to do.
I went to the Pack's headquarters once I was done talking with Killian. I needed someone to kill time with and there's no better way to kill time other than with a woman. Although I have limited women that I sleep with, not because the girls play hard to get nor I couldn't play my cards right, but because most of the women here are not my type. They look beautiful and whatnot. Sometimes they give me the stares to come over, I mean who wouldn't want to be the Alpha's son woman but most times I was the one rejecting them. There was only one girl I liked to fuck and that was Maya, but ever since that son of a bitch Alpha Asher came to her rescue, it has been me not having the urge to smut. But today, I decided that whether I had the urge to smut or not, I was going to grab one of the females I find appealing and bring her to my apartment.
Sophia had been the girl Darl always admired. He always said she was the woman of her dreams and the type of girl he would like to have. But that was all there was to it—just words, and as I watched her from a distance for the first time since I knew, I began to see her through Darl's eyes I think. I was at the bar stand, listening to the blasting base of the music. Shakira and Wyclef Jean were playing on the invisible speakers and all the girls started to belly dance. They all seemed to be doing rubbish in my eyes but that thought ended or rather changed when my eyes landed on Sophia. She and her friend just entered the club and I just couldn't peel my eyes off her. She had that face that commanded you to have a second and a third stare and man was I doing a shitty job at that—I simply just couldn't take my eyes off her. Her light-colored skin was in a sharp contrast to the black shiny material gown she wore, it stopped just below her butts, showcasing those extra-long and pretty model-like kind of legs that were framed in 5inches sandal heels, in the same shade as her gown. Her Heels looked like they were made from the material of the gown she wore. Everything about her screamed 'yeah, come get me' and that was exactly what I did. Friday club night had never really been my thing because of how choked up it normally was but this one seemed worthy of every nerve-wracking moment I've spent here.
I felt my pants twitch when she began to dance. Her waist seemed to have some kind of boris or elastic in it because there was no way she could move her waist and her stomach just like that. The music stopped and she made her way to the bar to get some drinks.
"Two shots of vodka and four martinis please" I heard her shout to the barman. She was still ordering when her friend Alicia joined her. Sophia was going to pay for their drink but I quickly and quietly slid to her booth and passed my card to the barman. "I'll pay for that," I said to the barman before I turned and flashed my best flirtatious smile at Sophia.
And it worked...OMG! I'm squealing inside me like a bitch 'cause why not. A voice suddenly howled that it was Darl's girl I was going after but I quickly shut it out. For all I know, Darl never made it past ten feet close to her. He recoiled that he was a bit scared of approaching her. Not like I blamed him though, Sophia's Dad was one of the richest and most influential men in the pack and she was an only child. Her parents are careful of the people they are associated with and so was she, it seemed. It doesn't help that she had schooled abroad and graduated top of her class and she was such a gracious creature to behold.
Everything she did screamed classic and it took most men just a glance from her end to make them scram from her sight. Rumors even had it that she really hadn't been mated and her father had rejected all the suitors and called them unworthy. The only thing that gave me an edge and the additional esteem boost was the fact that I was the Alpha's first son. There wasn't any female that didn't want to be in a relationship with the Alpha's son or better put, there wasn't a female wolf who didn't like the idea of being the future Luna.
"Thank you," she said with her drop-dead gorgeous smile when the barman signaled to her what I'd done.
"Oh, it's no issue," I replied, "and please feel free to add to your wishlist on my account." The last statement made her smile widen, and man, I never knew I could get turned on just from watching a girl smile.
"I'll keep that in mind" she replied before downing a shot of vodka in one go.
"You might want to be careful with that girl" I smirked, obviously piqued by everything she does.
"Oh, trust me. I'm far from being a girl" she said and then smirked. I could have sworn she was being flirty with me but I couldn't be so sure right?
Every uncertainty I had her about whipped away after her last shot. It was probably the alcohol in her vein speaking but I couldn't care less.
"Take me to your bedroom, Alpha's son" she murmured into my ears.
Yeah right! Just what I thought... Alpha's son.
"Are you sure about that pretty girl 'cause..." I was still talking when she cupped my dick through the fabric of my Jeans trousers.
Oh! what that fuck?
"Do you still want to clarify that I'm sure?" She asked as she ran her hand up and down my shaft.
Man, I'd be damned.
Without wasting any second, I grabbed my car keys and wallet from the bar counter and that was when I saw Killian's text.
"Or, would you rather come over? Be here in thirty then..."
Well, thirty minutes is a lot of time if shawty wouldn't mind.
Edna's POV
"Trust me, babe, his wolf can't even run a hundred meters without shutting down for the next couple of days" Killian's text read. I immediately cracked up as I read the text. What the fuck with someone with a record as Jason, one would think his wolf is as big as an elephant, but no, according to Maya and Killian his wolf could easily be mistaken for a kitten.
"I really can't help but imagine how pathetic he really is. So he's big in words but small in deeds! How pathetic indeed" I quickly shot him back my reply.
"I mean girl, dude legit has a personal trainer, and even with the trainer's help, he still can't fling a sword correctly. Just last weekend, he struck his left shoulder with his blade while practicing" Killian added a rolling face filled with tears emoji, and I couldn't help but laugh all the more.
"You mean Jason is as useless in his human form as he is in his wolf form?"
"It depends. If giving orders, torturing slaves, and partying counts as something, then I think his human wolf is a bit more useful than his wolf....at least to his father"
"That is so fucking true"
"Please help me relate this message to Alpha Asher. Tell him I've gotten more tabs on the people Alpha Rick almost posed as Maya's parents. He could look them up by himself if he wants and tell him also that he should be mindful of the people around him. I overheard Jason and Melissa talking about implanting a spy in his pack. They've already gotten a person on the inside, seemingly but I have no idea who the person is or if they've really approached the person, or if the person is willing, but according to what I heard, this person is a former classmate and girlfriend to Jason. I think that information would help him fish out the person. Whoever she is"
"Damn" I mumbled once I finished reading the message. This charade really won't come to an end right? I felt really grateful to Killian for all the trouble he intentionally put himself into just to make sure Alpha Rick doesn't get an edge over Asher. Asi thought about all the sacrifices he's been doing for the pack and all that had happened between us over the last couple of days, only one thing came to my mind—love. He had outrightly told me during one of the previous times we chatted that I'm one of the reasons why he was helping Asher. He said he couldn't wait for all this rift to be over so he could be with me forever and I think that's the same thing I want. To be with him until the goddess calls me forth. I thought about my reply carefully before I typed it.
"Thank you for all that you do, Killian. Thank you so much" I heaved a breath after I sent the first text. After giving it a second thought, I sent the next text..."I love you" I covered my eyes with my palm like a sixteen-year-old high school girl that had just confessed to her childhood crush and was waiting for his reply but it never came. A minute or more passed by without my phone going off in beeps. I removed my hands from my face to check if I had missed the beep, still nothing.
Oh shit! Did I just make a fool of myself?
