Chapter 190

Jwas confused as well.

What Daran had in his palm made no sense to her.

It was a cup of dirt.

“How is sdirt going to find us locate the bandits?” Westin crossed his arms with a smirk on his

face. “I have got to say–this is not a very smart way to get Janet’s

attention.”

“Hey.”

Jelbowed him, “No trash talk. Remember?”

Westin put his hands up in the air, “Sorry. Didn’t mean it.”

“That is strike one.” Jwarned him and then turned back to Daran, “What is wrong with this dirt?”

Daran didn’t seem to be affected by Westin’s sarcasm.

He raised his hand a bit higher for the others to take a clearer look and explained, “This dirt is not from

this area. Take a look at your surroundings. The forest only has moist black soil and a finely textured

loam. Yet the stuff that I have in my hand is different. It is sandier and rougher and if you look closely, it

has a scarlet color to

it.‘

Jfelt the dirt in his hand with two fingers.

Daran was right.

This dirt was not from this area.

“So you are suggesting that-”

“This sandy dirt was carried here by the criminals underneath their shoes. All we

need to is to see if any

nearby places have this lonte se asier son

will know where these criminals have been to.”

A round of astonished gasps could be heard.

All the soldiers were looking at Daran in awe.

soil. Then

“Captain, do we know if any places have this scarlet soil?” Jasked.

The captain scratched his head, contemplating.

One of the soldiers spoke up at this moment, “I know! There are a few acres of red land in Lord Rolf’s

land. And it is not very far from here. Just a couple of miles down south!”

Janet’s eyes darkened slightly.

…Lord Rolf?

She knew that man.

He was invited to the party tonight as one of the most respected elders.

Even Casper looked up to this man. He assisted Casper in stabilizing the Blood Moon Pack when

Casper first becAlpha.

Jeven heard rumors that Rolf wanted to marry his daughter to Casper.

But that didn’t work out because Casper made it clear that he was not ready to settle down.

Could Lord Rolf be behind all these?

“Could you lead the way?” Jasked the soldiers..

“Certainly. Follow me!”

They got back to their cars and rushed to Lord Rolf’s land.

Lord Rolf’s residence was located in the middle of a large open field.

The lone mansion stood on its own, a stark contrast to the vast openness that surrounded it.

As their cars drove deep into the open field, heading straight towards the mansion, Jsaw the color

of the soil gradually turning red, exactly like the kind that Daran found in the woods.

Minutes later, they reached the front door of the mansion.

A wrought–iron gate guarded the entrance, creaking softly in the night wind.

Jgot out of the car and cforward to buzz the doorbell.

Westin was right behind her.

While they waited for somebody to get the door, he bent down and whispered into Janet’s ear:

“…Can’t we just bust inside?”

Jshook her head, “No. Lord Rolf is a friend of Casper. I don’t want to heat things.

up until we have more proofs.”

A series of light footsteps cfrom the inside.

A middle–aged man emerged from the darkness, looking like a butler or house staff.

He opened the iron gate a crack and peeked outside, warily.

“Who are you?” he asked.

“I am JManning, Alpha Casper’s sister, and Gamma,” Jintroduced herself. “We are here

because of a crthat happened nearby. Can you open the door please?”

The butler gulped, looking nervous, “W–What for?”

“We want to search your house. Don’t worry. It will be quick.”

“Why do you want to search our house? We know nothing about this crthat you talk about!” the

butler said in a strained voice, “Just go!”

“I said it would be quick. Please don’t make this difficult,” Jwarned.

Yet the butler stood firmly behind the gate, “No. You can’t barge in like this and search our house. Our

lord isn’t hat the moment. You will startle our lady. Our lady is a delicate girl. She doesn’t like

strangers.”

Jtook a deep breath.

They could easily bust down this iron gate if they wanted.

But she didn’t know if Lord Rolf was behind this. Forcing their way in would be rude and disrespectful.

“Then have you seen anyone suspicious tonight? Sneaking around your house?” she asked again.

“No. Everything is normal around here.”

“No. Everything is normal around here.”

This investigation seemed to reach a dead end.

Jhesitated, thinking whether she should call Casper first and ask for his permission to barge into

this house.

Westin spoke up abruptly, “He is lying.”

A hint of paníc flickered across the butler’s eyes, “What?”

Westin sniffed the air and raised one brow, “They are here. I smelled the sscent. here as in the

woods. It is pretty strong. They must have just gone in a couple of minutes ago.”

Jrounded her eyes,

shocked.

She didn’t smell anything!

The Lycans must have an even stranger sense of smell than they did.

“NONSENSE!”

The butler snapped.

“I told you! I didn’t see anyone!”

“Well, there is one way to find out then,” Westin shrugged.

He grabbed the iron gate and gave it one hard push!

What an enormous power!

The butler staggered back in horror and shrieked, “NO YOU CAN’T-”

But Westin had already dashed inside!

Jhad no other way but to follow him, with Daran right behind her.

“This way!” Westin cried.

Jkicked off her high heels and rushed forward with bare feet.

Then she heard the loud sound of the engine. The headlights flashed in the darkness-

A minivan croaring at Jat full speed!

“Watch out!”

Daran cried, lunged forward, and tackled Jto the ground.

They narrowly dodged the minivan.

It swooshed right by them, crossed the front yard, and headed straight to the

entrance!

“Stop it!” Jsnarled.

She wanted to shift into

her wolf and chase down that car.

Jjerked around and looked up.

She froze.

…It was Westin.

He shifted.

It was the first tshe saw a Lycan in his wolf form.
