Chapter 36: _ Dumb Beta

Rhett

"Then we have our answers. An insider has done it and we have to find them. You have to set aside the notion that you all aren’t capable of evil. People change."

The eting room buzzed with agreent and disagreents.

"Who could have done such?"

"I don’t know anyone of our kind capable of such!"

"It’s not us, is it, Dyla?"

The fairies sure didn’t know how to be composed. Rhett sighed, rubbing his temple. Farkas took to speaking.

"We will begin to conduct the investigation now. One person after the other. You will all be summoned to the investigation room, so get ready." He stood up and adjusted his clothes, turning to Rhett.

Rhett nodded at him. There was no point in this eting any longer. They needed to proceed to the next phase.

The Delta cleared his throat. "I guess this is where I leave you guys to your jobs."

"Thank you so much, Bain." Farkas shook his hands.

The Delta chuckled. "Oh, co on, Farkas. We are all doing the pack’s jobs."

Rhett also shook his hand but didn’t say a word to him and only watched him leave with so other officials who weren’t needed anymore. He wished Darius was following them out right now.

The fey wouldn’t stop their murmurs and chattering and Rhett just let them be.

"Alistair, send them into the investigation room one by one. I and Farkas will handle the investigation." He inford.

Darius’s whistle and a toss of Rhett’s shoulder stirred anger within him. "What do you an you will handle the investigation, Gamma Rhett? I will handle the investigation and you.." He pointed at Rhett. "Will follow my lead. You too." He sealed it off by pointing at Farkas.

"This is my job, Darius. You are here to supervise and not ddle." Rhett tried so hard to contain his growing irritation as he said.

What followed was a short mock chuckle that emanated from Darius. "It seems you are forgetting your place, aren’t you, Rhett? Do you need

to remind you that YOU are the Gamma and I, the BETA?!"

"I know very well what I am. That is why I am telling you that handling security matters is my job. The Alpha sent you here to supervise, not to ruin things." Rhett countered but unlike Darius, he looked calm and spoke gently despite his anger.

"Look, Argus, aren’t they the violent ones?"

"What are they doing?"

"I thought they said we are the troubles?"

"Are they fighting themselves?"

The gossip that strained from the seated fey called the two n to order. Farkas just stood there and let them but the fey surely were watching and had a lot to say.

"You are weak, Rhett. You are afraid of the fey and wouldn’t throw the truth in their faces. Instead, you hide behind trying to make peace and you do nothing but waste our ti with it. The vampires won’t wait for us, you know." Darius fired, albeit with a calr tone now, and stord out of the eting hall.

Rhett wished he could attack him from behind and tear him to pieces – skin to bone.

He hated troublemakers and people like Darius were an embodint of trouble. He had a feeling that the little boy he saw with Isleen was a troublemaker too. If only those elves hadn’t shown up with that wolf girl and disrupted their – mont.

He subconsciously licked his lips and was happy to find that he could still taste her on it.

The mont Darius was out of their faces, Farkas sighed. "He’s trouble but we can’t get rid of him, Rhett. Let’s learn to work with him until this ss is over and he’s out of our faces." He patted Rhett’s shoulder and urged him out of the eting hall.

They both headed to the investigation room and on getting there, they found Darius sitting on the investigation chair already.

"You go join him. I’ll be behind the glass, monitoring." Farkas encouraged the frustrated Rhett who had been silent because of anger.

Rhett reluctantly entered and sat behind Darius who was tapping a pen on the desk. The distance he left between them was enough to convince soone that Darius was diseased.

After a minute, the first fey entered. It was an elf. To Rhett, the elves were out of his suspicion lists. Those missing fairies were what bugged him now. His gut said so. He trusted his guts than he did himself even.

.

After investigating the twenty-fifth fey with Darius getting on Rhett’s nerves all the way, they finally found a lead on one.

It was a forty three years old female fairy.

"H — hello." She seed quite nervous as she took her seat in front of them. Even her skin was white.

When a fairy’s skin turned white, it ant they were worried in an intense kind of way. Their skin that always depicted their moods was one of the reasons why they didn’t lie. Because they couldn’t.

Any wise person would be able to deduce when a fairy lied.

For the first ti since the investigation, Rhett’s interest was piqued. Darius investigating and throwing accusations which he terd ’the truth’ at the other fey they had investigated so far had been the most boring thing Rhett had ever had to endure.

As soon as they ca in, he’d be able to tell if they could get any substantial information from them just by scrutinizing their body languages.

It always took Darius a mob of questions to finally decide that their suspect was innocent. Yet, he spoke about wasting tis. The Alpha was definitely a joke to make this man the beta; Rhett scoffed.

However, with this one fey, "Hey, there." Rhett replied, leaning forward.

Even Darius was surprised by his reply and sudden interest. Darius was too amateur to see what Rhett had seen.

"Tell , what do you think of our Ravenwood pack?" Rhett began, his jaw tightened in anticipation of what he was about to discover from this fairy.

However, to his greatest irk, "We don’t care what you think of our pack, Miss." Darius countered. "Why did you breach the veil?"

What in the sinful bluntness was that?! Rhett wished he could just gut the dummy beside him down.
