Chapter Thirty Two
Alex walked down to the living room and jumped into his wolf form. He sniffed the letter, hoping to catch a scent but he didn’t. He was frustrated and he ran up to his room before changing into his human form
“He’s smart and he is good at what he does. Somebody should get me Justin! And where is Damian’s mom?” He screamed at one of the maids
“Take it easy and stop telling at everybody. Mom went out she said she had a meeting to attend to and I don’t think she would be back anytime soon” Sally said
“So I’m just supposed to fold my arms and sit till she comes back while a power hungry psychopath has my sister and is doing heaven knows what to her?” he asked
“I would look for Justin and call my mom, maybe she can cancel whatever she is doing and come home so we can get this settled” Sally said
“Thank you. Arielle, stay here incase she comes back home” Alex ordered
“And what are you going to do in the meantime?” Arielle asked
“I can’t sit here and do nothing. I would scout the area maybe he didn’t get far with her, maybe they are some where in the city” he said
Arielle nodded and he sped off. She sighed. She knew that without his sister, his world would come crumbling down. His sister was the only family he had and she meant everything to him. The thought of him losing her scared the hell out of him and he swore that he was going to kill Phillip if he found him first. He knew that meant getting on Damian’s bad side but he didn’t care. Damian was always going to pick his dad over them and Alex knew this more than anything. It was something he was sure of and that is why he was going to do what was necessary for them to survive
Sally managed to track Justin down. She found him in the valley, laying on the grass
“You don’t know how to quit it, do you?” he asked as she walked up to him
“I didn’t come here to see your face or something. I cane here because I don’t have a choice. I need your help” she said to him
He opened his eyes and looked at her. He could tell that she was serious because she looked extreme worried and scared
“What is going on?” he asked her
“I needs you to reach my brother” she said
“I don’t think that is a good idea. He said he didn’t want to talk to anybody the last time we spoke and we have to respect his decision, except, well, if you can get Annabelle to apologize to him” Justin said
“That would have been a good idea if my dad didn’t kidnap her and did who knows what to her. We found this in her room” she said, handing him the note
He looked at it and observed it slowly. His eyes glowed with silver outlines and he sniffed the note
“That is blood” he said to Sally
“I know. I’m a vampire. There was also blood in her room, on the floor. I don’t know whose blood that is but for my dad to take Annabelle, she just be hurt” Sally said
“I would get across to Damian but I don’t think we should expect any help from him because he is still pretty upset” Justin said
“He can put his petty anger aside and come look for his girlfriend! If he doesn’t , she is going to die because I would not let a psychopath take over the ruling of this division!” Sally said
“And if you don’t let your mom step down, what would happen to Annabelle? Did you think about that?” Justin asked
“Nothing will. I would not let anything happen to Anna. I will find Phillip myself and kill him before he has the chance to think about doing anything to her” she said
“Don’t do anything stupid. I will reach Damian and I would be back at the house by evening to tell you what his reply is” Justin said to her

He pulled up in front of a house. It looked really big. Damian wasn’t sure about how his father could even afford to stay in a place as luxurious as this. Damian knew that his mother was the sole breadwinner of their family. They stayed in her house and she was the one providing for everything since she was the one from a royal background with the wealth and everything. Damian caught a scent which was very familiar but he brushed it off. It was Anna’s scent and he didn’t see a reason to why she should be around here. He probably missed her and his mind was playing with him. He got down from his car when he saw his father walking towards him. Hua phone rang and he pulled it out of his pocket. He looked at it. It was Justin. He pressed the power button of his phone to stop it from ringing out. He concluded that if it was important, he would call again. Besides, he didn’t want to talk to anybody yet.
“I did not think you were going to make it here. It is pretty far from home” his father said to him
“I didn’t come from home and it doesn’t matter where I came from. I have questions and I need answers. First question. Did you kill Anna’s mom?” Damian asked
“All the answers you need is in your mother’s room. She keeps a journal or should I call it a diary of some sort? Whatever it is, all the answers you seek are there but there is a downside to it. It belongs to your mother. I know you are wondering why she has the answers to your question but that is because your mother is not who you think she is” Phillip said
“She said the same thing about you. I don’t know who is lying and I don’t know who to trust” Damian said
“I should be offended by that statement but I understand that you’re nothing but a child. It would become clearer as time goes on. You don’t have to worry about it he said, rubbing his hands against each other
Damian noticed it and looked closely. That was blood. He got distracted as his phone rang again. He looked at it and saw that it was Justin. He did the same thing again and looked at his father’s hand
“Is that blood?” he asked his father
“Feeding got a little messy, that’s all” he said to him
“Hmm, if you say so” Damian said
He doubted his father because his father never fed and got stained with blood. His father was so good at feeding off his preys and he was never stained. If the prey proved to be stubborn, his father either compelled his preys or killed them. It was never messy and Damian found it hard to believe. He decided that it was none of his business since his father wasn’t willing to talk to him about what was going on. He headed to his car. He has to find a way to go back home and get his hand on his mother’s journal. He nodded to his father and drove off. Justin called him again and Damian brushed it off. He decided that he would call him back when he got home. He got home pretty late and dropped on his bed. He had to get up to fix dinner so he could eat something. He had dinner and dropped on his bed again. He was about to close his eyes when he felt a knife cut across his wrist. He looked at it and there was nothing there. It was probably Justin trying to get his attention so he picked up his phone and dialed his number. Justin picked it up immediately
“Hey, where have you been? I have called you a thousand times. I thought something had happened to you. Why weren’t you picking up my calls?” he asked all at the same time
“I had somethings to take care off and I didn’t really have the time to pick up your calls. What’s wrong?” Damian asked him
“I don’t understand you. You told me to let you know if anything goes wrong and I call you and it’s this?”
“Okay, I am sorry. I am really tied right now Justin and I honestly don’t have the mental strength for an argument so tell me why you have been calling me so I can head to bed” Damian said calmly
“Right, like I am the one that doesn’t need the rest. Anyways, your girlfriend is missing. Your psychotic dad took her. You should really come back home” Justin said
“What do you mean by Anna is missing?” he asked
