Thomas' POV

It's finally time for me and Prince to go meet whoever is behind Ann's mysterious message. Me and him are in my room now, with him fixing things. I know, I find it weird too.

"Why would we need a freaking knife, Prince?" I laughed.

"For protection, of course, you should know about this, with you being the skilled one in here when it comes to murders." He took the knife away from my hands and placed it back in the bag.

"Okay fine but can we go? The person might already be there or already left for all we know."

"So? Let her wait, she's the one who asked to meet us, right?" I nodded.

After a minute or so, we went to the back door and made sure that none of the Alphas know what we're doing. I unlocked the gates to the woods and we started our journey.

"Wait, did the text say where to meet this person, exactly?" I asked because c'mon, this is a fucking woods, not a house.

"Now that you've mentioned it, no it didn't. Let's just explore? You know this whole place right?" I shrugged but nodded.

We explored the woods, getting deeper by the minute. None of us are talking but the silence is quite calming, not awkward or something. I can see in my peripheral vision that Prince is looking at me from time to time, yes it makes my heart skip a beat but I have to pretend it doesn't affect me.

"So how've you been?" He spoke out. Really? You chose to ask that out of all the questions you can ask your ex? Real smooth.

"I'm fine, trying to be sane with all these murders and kidnapping taking place, and you? Found anyone yet?" Oh God, I'm no better. Real fucking smooth.

He smiled and blushed then looked at the ground, "You know it's always you, Thomas." I smiled.

"Whatever you say, Van Der Woodsen." He laughed.

After a couple more minutes, we reached the clearing where me and the Alphas do our annual camping. It smells bad here, which is weird because we keep this place the most clean and safe out of all the woods.

"It reeks here." Prince covered his nose with his hand.

"It's strange, it always smells nice here, there's something fishy here I swear." I fanned my face and covered my nose, too. "Let's split up, I know there should be something here." He nodded.

I was about to walkaway when Prince grabbed my forearm, " Be careful, okay?" I smiled, same old Prince.

"Yes, you too." He smiled then nodded.

With that, we started the search.

-.-

One of the Alpha's POV

Thomas and Prince? Going to the woods? That does sound suspicious. They thought they could sneak out but boy they forgot I always drink my milk before I go to sleep. I took my phone out and dialed the number I know by heart.

"Hello? Yeah it's me. I think I know who the Golden is." I smirked.

-.-

Back to Thomas' POV

We've been searching for 20 minutes now but there's still no sign of something here. Maybe we're wrong? Maybe this isn't supposed to be the place?

"Thomas! Come quick!" I heard Prince shout and I immediately followed his voice.

I found him in front of a large oak tree with both of his hands covering his nose. As soon as I'm near enough, I covered my nose too. There's a lot of dead animals there, deer, rabbits and even snakes! Now we know why it reeks here.

"I'm guessing this is the cause of the stench?" I spoke and he nodded.

"That's not the only thing I called you here for." He opened his left hand and there's a tape recorder there. Where did he get that?

"I found this nailed to the deer's head. There's a tape inside but I haven't played it yet, figured we should listen to it together." I nodded.

"Good work, but can we listen to that somewhere where it smells nice and not of rotting flesh and blood?" He laughs but it's muffled with his hands.

"Sure."

We sat in front of each other on the ground a couple of feet away from the gates but hidden behind the trees in case some of the Alphas chose to go to the back.

"Okay, press play." Prince nodded and soon the tape started...

I never liked this fraternity. The voice spoke.

Why? It's fun, Thomas is a good leader. Why thanks! I thought.

Who are you kidding, Brianna? This place sucks ass! My eyebrows rose, Brianna?

No it doesn't! And shut your trap, Irvin, Thomas might hear you. Irvin...

The tape went to static after that. We thought it was finished but it started again,

Looks like Jackson here isn't true to you, huh Thomas? This is just the first. Wait for the rest, especially the last. Then the tape stopped. The voice is disguised.

I looked at Prince and he looked at me with pity in his eyes. 

"It's getting quite late, let's head back." I stood up and Prince came after me.

-.-

Morning the next day, I went to jog with Allie by my side. When we reached the Sigma Kappa Fraternity house, a ruckus was happening there. We can hear some shouts being exchanged inside but not a complete war is taking place.

"Might as well look at it, right?" Allie said with a smirk and I nodded.

We walked quietly towards the back and listened to the voice.

"You're stupid, you know that!?" It's a female voice.

"I don't want to do this anymore! I hate this!" I know that voice.

"Is that Prince?" Allie whispered and I nodded.

"Being a chicken now, huh? What would your mother think of you, Edward?" I can't place who that voice belongs to.

"And you call lying being brave, huh? I don't want this, I'll stop. Good luck." The female voice laughed.

"Okay, no hard feelings. But a gift to you from me will be fine though, right?"

"What the hell are you saying?"

"A gift. Like Thomas' head? Or his hands? maybe even his heart!" What the hell!?

i looked at Allie and she has this shocked face on her face, maybe just a bit like mine, "Leave him out of this!" Prince is raging, I know that voice.

"Continue what we're doing and I will." There was a moment of silence...

"Fine."

-.-

Damn revelations everywhere!
