65. Oliver

The problem with the water pipes was finally solved. It had caused us more than a day and of course, Logan had sensed through the mind link that something was wrong. Our surprise was known. Not that it was something really big. We just redecorated the pack. A little more colour. In our enthusiasm, we dug a little to deep.

Finally some rest, I thought. I hadn't slept this night and I thought that I deserved some rest. Some hours later, Jack's voice was inside my head. A guard is killed! I was immediately awake. Was someone attacking us? Who killed him? Why? Several questions were in my head. I put some clothes on and went to the border. Jack was already waiting for me. He was leaning over a dead body.

" One stab in the heart " Anger was the only thing I could think about. How did someone dare to kill one of us? " Has someone seen anything? " I asked Jack, before I looked around. I put some steps forward. I tried to find the killer's smell. It didn't work. I could only smell something else. Flowers maybe?

Jack clearly saw that I had difficulties with finding the smell, so he did it himself. " He isn't far away " He started to walk in the direction and I ran behind him. Strangely, the flower smell I had found was in the same direction. Wait a minute? Flower?! My wolf was going crazy in my head and it clearly wasn't with anger. Was my mate close by?

" Jack " I ran closer to him. " How did you feel when you met Grace? " I asked him. My question surprised him. " I found her smell. My wolf kept repeating that I needed to go to her and I think you know the rest. You saw everything happening. " It had been on her 18th birthday. We were doing our round in the pack, when he had ran away from us. ' Mate! Mate ' had he been calling. He didn't even take effort to open the door. He just put his shoulder against it and opened it like that. That was the moment when he was standing before ' his ' Grace.

On the moment, they were building a house for the two of them. As soon as it was finished, they would move in together. They were now living with her parents. Did Grace and Axelle already meet each other? I didn't think so. Probably, because a lot had happened already. And they hadn't found the right time.

" Do you mean ... " He looked at me. I couldn't do anything else than nod. I couldn't be anything else. The smell. My wolf. I started to get nervous. What if she didn't like me? What if she didn't want me?

We kept on running, till we finally saw something. Jack grabbed the person. " Stay here " He took the cap and maid sure that we could see the face of the person in front of us. And that was the moment my whole world stopped. I was looking in the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. A girl, the same age as Axelle was looking at me.

Had she killed the guard? I looked slowly at Jack and saw that we had been looking for the same person. That she was the killer and my mate. Wait ... " Jack. Please don't do what you are planning to do " They were going lock her in the cells. She was a criminal and they were going to lock her up until Logan and Axelle were back. My heart was hurting when I thought about it. " Please " I begged him. The other guards were running towards us. Jack let go of my mate and stepped closer to me. " Grab her and bring her to the cells. "

" No! " I shouted. " Stay away from her! " The guards grabbed her and brought her away. Further and further away from me. Jack stopped me. My best friend was fighting against me ... " Let me go! I need to help her! " Anger and sadness were the only things felt. Anger because they were holding me and sadness because they were going to lock her up. " Oliver. Calm down. I will contact Logan and ask him to come back. Don't worry. Nobody will touch her. " He tried to calm me down, but it didn't work.

Several hands grabbed me and tried to calm me down. It was the only thing I couldn't do at the moment. I wanted to go to her. I needed to go to her. I needed to protect her! My wolf was going crazy in my head. He was blaming me for everything. I hadn't helped her when she needed me, he said to me. The more I struggled, the less energy I had.
