Chapter 58 THE CONSPIRACY


    THE SKYLIGHT PACK


    VANCE


    I walk into the mansion, so deep in my thoughts, ignoring the salutations I got from my pack


    members.


    “Cody!” I called the moment I got in.


    Hees running


    “Yes Alpha!” he stood, head bowed, hands behind his back.


    “This is a conspiracy!” I roared.


    He just stood, not saying a word.


    I pace the length of the room.


    “They already conspired against me and if I didn''t go there I wouldn''t have known” I heaved in


    annoyance.


    “Alpha Craig and all those??”


    Turning to Cody


    “What do you think they were talking about?”


    A frown marred his features as he raised his head to look at me “I don''t know, Alpha”


    “ I don''t know, alpha” mimicking him.


    “But why would the collector gather all those bodies and hang them at Alpha Damon’s territory?” I


    asked thoughtfully. “ why would he painstakingly look for females that look just like Catherine? I


    furrowed my brow in concentration when a thought crept in.


    I spun round to Cody “We would be going back to the ckwater pack”


    “Again?” Cody asked me his eyes flicked with confusion


    “Yes, again.” I was enjoying the realization I had just had but more the sheer look of helplessness in


    Cody’s eyes.


    “But -but - why, Alpha?” he stuttered


    “Are you questioning an alpha’s order?”


    “No alpha” he bent his head, looking at his feet.


    “Well; Catherine is in the ckwater pack” I let out.


    His head came up sharply as he gasped in surprise


    “Your Lu-”


    “Yes, Catherine.” I interrupted. I wasn''t about to be reminded of how I rejected her.


    “But - but how do - do you know Alpha?”


    “I know everything”


    Sitting down on the chair.


    “I sensed her the moment I got in.”


    He nodded slightly.


    “Remember the cookie we ate?”


    His brow creases as he tries to remember.


    “… I knew I had eaten it before. Somewhere. It wasn''t until the ride home when my brain was


    cleared of those alphas that I remembered that I had eaten it in my pack and it was only Catherine


    that made it.”


    “OK,” he nodded in agreement. “But why would they be hiding her?” he asked, his voicecing with


    confusion.


    “I don''t know yet, but I will soon. We will be going back” I said and left for my room.


    **************************


    CODY


    I walk solemnly to Tammy’s cell.


    I didn''t know my sister was capable of all the things I had found out that she had done. It felt like I


    didn''t know her anymore.


    I wish I didn''t have to see her.


    “Cody!!!” she gushes remorsefully


    I nodded.


    I kept staring at her lost for words.


    “Cody, I''m so sorry.”


    “Right” isn''t that what people always say? They do bad things just so they can say sorryter.


    “Cody- Cody- I am sorry” She moved towards the gate, she was starting to cry now. “I am changing,


    I swear to you by our father”

    “You both are the same!” I shouted, visibly irritated. The man I had called father had also killed weak


    ones deceiving me that it was for the betterment of the pack.


    The hell for her to swear by him!


    My Wolf growled.


    “We should go”


    I know. I replied but I have some questions to ask her.


    “Grrrr!!” it snarls in anger and went to settle at the back of my head.


    “Cody-” Tammy began


    “Father is dead,” I interrupted.


    She didn''t seem surprised as she just looked at me, sitting gently on her feet.


    “Well;…” I cleared my throat, grateful that someone else had passed the news before me and I


    didn''t have to deal with all the emotional outbursts Tammy would have thrown.


    “Now that is out of the way… you sent the collector after Catherine?” I asked watching her closely.


    She inhaled sharply and didn''t say anything.


    “Did you send the collector after Catherine?” I asked, my tone going higher than the first.


    She let out an audible sigh and burst into tears.


    “Enough!!” I growled. I wasn''t ready for any of those silly tears. “I didn''te to see you cry,” I


    stated. “ I asked a question and you’d do well to answer it.”


    The tears instantly stopped flowing.


    She nodded.


    “When I ask a question, I want you to use your words” I was impatient and it was obvious.


    “Yes!” she said looking down at her feet.


    “How did you get to know about the collector??” I didn''t even know he was an actual person. All my


    life I had thought the collector was a a myth only. How evil could she be to know about him? I


    wondered. I have kept wondering since I heard about it.


    “I-” she began, hesitating.


    I looked over my shoulder to see the boy holding the electric fan, signaling him toe over.


    Hees over and Tammy runs to the edge of the run,


    “Stop please,” she pleaded “I took it from one of Dad’s contacts”


    I ran my eyes over this girl that was supposed to be my sister.


    “Did you know it was the collector?”


    “I swear to you…” she began. It sounded dramatic to me


    “Tammy, I didn''t ask you to swear. Did you know he was the collector?”


    “I didn''t Cody, I didn''t.” she looked at me, willing me to believe her.


    I moved away slightly from the gate and asked the guy in.


    Tammy screams at the top of her lungs as he enters


    “I knew! I knew!”


    Even though something within me told me that she knew I was so shocked and hurt to hear her say


    it.


    The collector was one of the most dreaded assassins.


    What business does she have to reach out to the collector?


    To say I was disappointed was a far cry from what I felt


    “You knew?” I raised my hands, waving the guy out.


    She nods.


    “And you still sent him after Catherine?”


    She inhaled sharply as she blinked back tears.


    “I Cody…” I was too ashamed to even add the family’s name. “I Cody, Beta to the Alpha of the


    Skylight pack, denounce you today, as my sister”
