Chapter 22 - Burnt Fish

Eric pov

"Xavier, I need you to head here now, I've got some errands I need you to run for me. but before that any luck with the silver moon pack?"

Xavier was my gamma and a trusted fellow I made him my gamma because he's just like me, `never taking no for an answer and quite ambitious.....`

"Lucas and I are still trying to track the alpha my lord, but rest assured Lucas doesn't know the full details. "

He said over the phone

Lucas was my beta and quite a believer in rules being obeyed that's why I leave any illegal job for Xavier.

The Silvermoon pack is one of the packs in my brother's territory it is the only pack I haven't

searched.

Though I believe my brother knows where the crystal jar is I still have to make sure to leave no stone unturned.

Silvermoon pack alpha, alpha Nicklaus has been missing for two months no one has seen him, he's either hiding from me or he is dead, and if his hiding I'll be sure to kill him.

I was in the kitchen helping Agnes with dinner, frying some fish but my mind was elsewhere I need to find work somewhere else I have been restless since yesterday.

This morning Elliot kept stealing glances at me while I served breakfast and Eric didn't even pay attention to me. not like I care though.

"You foolish girl you let the whole fish burn". Agnes roared.

"Uh-Um...Agnes, I am s-sorry I think my mind was elsewhere " I stuttered, my voice coming out squeaky.

"This is highly unacceptable. A cook of the Vladimir mansion must remain alert while on duty."

"I forbid you from entering the kitchen for one whole week starting now."

"But you don't have that right , I said to her. For crying out loud she wasn't my employer.

"Well, she's right, you're suspended for a week now get lost". Lance said from the door. I wonder when he came in.

Guzma and Marinette gave me nervous glances I was sad about whatever had happened but nothing could be done about it. I removed my apron and left the kitchen

I was heading to my room when I spotted Eric coming downstairs. He saw me and trapped my gaze with his .I remembered I have been avoiding him and now I can't run nor hide.

With long strides, he was in front of me and I could see the fury in his eyes.
