Alpha Enforcer II: Griffin のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

“All rise,” the court officer said loudly as Judge Harding took his seat and we all sat down again.“Mr. Bridges, I’ve reviewed all your evidence last night and I’ve decided that it’s not necessary to call those witnesses,” Judge Harding said, “does the prosecution have any more witnesses to call?”“No Your Honour, the evidence speaks for itself,” Nathaniel said.“Noted,” he said and looked at me, “the defense may start their case.”“Thank you Your Honour,” I said as I stood up, “the defense calls Dr. Gold for cross-examination.”Dr. Gold was led back into the courtroom and placed under oath again as she sat down in the witness box looking pristine and calm.“Dr. Gold, you see a lot of injuries don’t you?”“Yes, I do.”“How long have you been the Hastings pack doctor?” I asked her.“Eighteen years,” she said.“Did you do an autopsy on Jonas Lasing?” I asked.“No.”“Why not?”“The Alpha didn’t deem an autopsy necessary since we knew that he had been poisoned by wolfsbane,” she said.“B

I had taken Sierra back to New York, she needed time and I gave it to her. She was young and she had her whole life ahead of her. She hadn’t outright rejected me again but neither did she accept the bond. Kane was restless and he told me I was an idiot for letting her go.I felt the bond, completely. I missed everything about her and I’d sit in front of my computer screens and search for images of her instead of searching for the hunters. She had stayed at the Council office for two more days before leaving.She had booked into a cheap motel and she was currently sitting in an interview where she had applied for the position as a receptionist for some architecture firm. She had no friends, no family, and she kept looking over her shoulder all the time.The other computer screen pinged and I focused my attention on it as another box popped open and Samantha’s image appeared on the screen. I could taste the bile in my mouth as I looked at her. This was the woman that I’d loved since I w

“We need to go,” I said to Kane after Jett had left my room.“I’m trying to sleep here,” he said.“Fine, stay,” I said to him and got up.“I’m getting real fed up with your self-pitying ways, where are we going?” he asked.“Home, there’s something I need to check on,” I said as he stretched his limbs and climbed off the bed.“Fine, I can do with a moose,” he said.I opened a portal right there in the room, Kane and I stepped through it and I headed directly for the shed. The computers were still buzzing but no new reports had come in, things were quiet and for the time being hunters had gone underground after the attack in Montana.I opened the copy of Sierra’s pack file that I still had and read through it, this time taking in all the information about her. My eyes skipped to the last section on the one page information sheet at the back of her file when they had just found her.‘The little girl was found wandering the forest bordering our pack territory. She was malnourished, dirty

We were back at the clowder in Newport and I sat in my room with my phone pressed to my ear. I had logged into my computer system remotely but Sierra hadn’t gotten the job at the architecture firm and she’d checked out of the motel where she had been staying.She wasn’t answering her phone either. I had gotten her new number from Marius, but so far it went straight to voicemail. I couldn’t find her and that bothered me. I could find anyone, except the one person I desperately wanted to find.“This is Sierra, please lea….” I put the phone down in frustration before I broke it.My thoughts drifted back to Samantha and a grin spread over my face as I thought about her stuck in a cell down in the dungeon. So far Damon hadn’t gone down there to see Phillip and I wondered what his plans were.I must have drifted off on the couch because I woke up in a cold sweat with Sierra screaming my name in my head. I had heard it clear as day, filled with pain and terror. Even now I could feal the fear

“Griffin.” I heard the whisper in my ear as I opened my eyes and jumped slightly at the close proximity of Jett’s face.“What the hell Jett,” I said as I turned on my side away from him.“Were you having a good dream?” he asked me as he fell down on the bed and I opened my eyes again.“Why are you in here?” I asked him.“You were smiling in your sleep, where you dreaming of me?” he asked.“Yes, I was busy killing you for being annoying,” I said and he laughed.“Anyway, Sierra’s waking up,” he said as I sat up abruptly and glared at him.“You couldn’t have started with that?” I asked him loudly as he backed away from me.“You were always grumpy in the mornings,” he said as I hastily pulled clothes on and rushed out of my room.I ran down the stairs and almost fell down them twice as Jett laughed at me from behind. I pulled the front door open and ran across the open stretch as warriors glanced at me with Jett trailing behind.“It’s okay, Griffin! I won’t tell anyone what happened last
