Chapter seventy three


    Oregon


    I heard a knock on the door and lowered my sses. I was in my office, going through some


    documents when the knock sounded.


    "Who is it?" I asked, my eyes darting to the door.


    "It''s me, the maidservant!" she replied.


    "Oh! You cane in," I smiled.


    The door opened, and thedy walked in, carefully shutting it behind her before approaching me.


    "So, how is she? Did she eat all the food?" I asked curiously.


    She chuckled and nodded. "At first, she didn''t want to eat because she seemed to be in a hurry to


    leave, but I pleaded with her."


    "Wait a minute. She said she was hurrying somewhere?" I asked, narrowing my eyes.


    She gasped and quickly shook her head. "No, she wasn''t hurrying anywhere."


    "I heard you. Don''t tell me you''re trying to lie?" I said, raising an eyebrow.


    "I''m sorry," she whispered, bowing her head slightly.


    "Tell me everything I need to know. What happened?" I demanded.


    "She left her room and begged me not to tell you," she whispered.


    "Why would she leave her room?" I asked, my voice cold and demanding.


    "I have no idea. She just left and didn''t tell me anything," she replied, almost shivering.


    I took a deep breath


    . "So, did she tell you where she was going?" I asked, and she shook her head.


    "She didn''t tell me anything," she replied, and I stood up.


    "You should go now," I said, gesturing for her to leave. She bowed and walked away.


    I sighed and grabbed my phone from the table. "Damn!" I muttered under my breath when I realized


    I didn''t have her phone number since I never bought her a phone.


    I became worried, wondering where she could have gone and why she tried to hide it from me. I


    called the pack secretary, instructing her to get a brand new phone for me. I was getting it for Vivian,


    of course.


    After making the call, I hurried out of the office and went straight to her room. I knocked on the door,


    but there was no reply, so I entered and saw that she wasn''t there.


    I didn''t give up. I looked around, searched the bathroom, and even the balcony, but she was


    nowhere to be found. I called her name, but all I got was silence.


    I sighed in despair and walked towards the door. Just as I was about to open it, the door swung


    open and hit my face. I groaned and held my face in pain.


    "Who is that!" I growled, ready to unleash my anger, but when I saw Vivian before me, I calmed


    down.


    "Vivian..." I whispered.


    "I''m sorry, are you hurt?" she asked,ing closer to me.


    "I''m fine," I whispered.


    "Let me see!" she said, sweeping my hair to the side. She sighed and her face turned sad.


    "What''s wrong?" I asked, concerned.


    She sighed deeply. "You shouldn''t be worried about me. Look how red your forehead is. It''s all my


    fault."


    "No, it isn''t your fault. It was just a slight mistake," I said, smiling.


    "I''m sorry," she whispered, then held my hand. "Come, let me treat it before it gets worse."


    I nodded, and she led me to the bed, where she sat me down. She went to the cupboard, took out


    an ointment, and started applying it to the spot. I was sitting down while she stood between my legs.


    I looked up at her and smiled, but then I suddenly sighed, and she looked down at me.


    "What''s wrong?" she asked, rubbing my face with concern.


    I sighed again, wrapped my arm around her waist, and pulled her down onto myp. Her face


    looked shocked as she never expected that from me.


    "Where were you?" I asked, and she gulped.


    "Me?" she whispered, pretending not to know.


    I nodded and replied, "Yes."


    "I never went anywhere," she replied, forcing a smile.


    "You''re lying, Vivian!" I said, pointing at her face. "You weren''t in your room when I came here, and


    someone told me you went out, saying you had to go somewhere."


    She chuckled and clenched her jaw. "I can''t believe this! Thatdy told you everything?"


    I smirked and nodded.


    "How could she? She promised me," Vivian pouted.


    "Don''t me her. She didn''t stand a chance against me. You know how vicious and cold I can be," I


    said, gnarling. Vivianughed and stroked my face.


    "Actually, I went to Laura''s bedroom, and she told me she has seen a trainer. He will being


    tonight, and I wanted to see what he looks like," she said.


    "Were you trying to hide from me?" I asked, frowning.


    "Not at all. I was just trying to keep a low profile. I wanted to tell you after I had seen him. Then


    I would tell you everything," she exined.


    "I''m still sad, though," I pouted. She quickly kissed my lips, and my cheeks flushed red.


    "Are you still sad?" she asked, grinning.


    "No," I whispered. "No, I mean, yes!"


    "Huh? But why?" she asked.


    "You think a simple kiss will make me happier?" I scoffed, and sheughed.


    "So, what do you want?" she asked.

    "I want you to..." I paused when I heard Stephen''s voice. He was mind-linking with me.


    "Hurry! We have a problem. The elders suddenly called for a meeting, and they want you there


    immediately," he said.


    I was about to tell Vivian everything when the door abruptly opened. We turned our heads to see


    Laura staring at us.
