55 - The Talk

I hope you're all making sense of everything that is happening so far. It might get clearer soon. 

It's finally the weekend. Thank God. School is so tiring already.

I looked to Nicolas. He opened his book, revealing the notes he had previously taken. They were all about the rogue attacks and sightings. He had been keeping track of what was happening.

His messy handwriting was scribbled all over the pages, filling up every inch of the white notebook. I realised that not only was he taking notes of the events occurring, but he was trying to link them together too.

He'd done a lot of work.

"Takiani is not the only one experiencing random and dangerous rogue attacks and sightings. There have been numerous attempted and successful kidnappings also," Nicolas started. Everyone looked confused at his words.

Things were about to make a lot more sense.

"The first number of sightings were up in Rohan's pack about four months ago. There had been about three rogues spotted along the border. It was written off as a one time thing, since there was no scent to trace the rogues, but the sightings became more frequent over the following two weeks," Nicolas continued. He was reading the facts from his book. I hadn't yet heard this information.

I was pretty sure that Rohan was some other Alpha not too far from Takiani. I wasn't too sure.

I was a little nervous. Everyone was going to react differently to the information they were about to hear. I wanted to get the right reactions.

"Two weeks after the first few sightings, Rohan's youngest son was taken during the night in his sleep. He was killed, his body found near the border the next morning. Their best trackers searched for days. Found nothing," Nicolas said. He spoke clearly and slowly enough for everyone to process the information.

I fiddled with my fingers. I glanced at my brothers. Beckett was giving me a confused look. He would understand soon.

"From that point, sightings weren't as frequent and there weren't any other attacks. But issues started up in the south. There were sightings at first, and then two separate attacks on a group of teenagers going for a swim in one of the lakes. We found a scent but it lead us nowhere. Another dead end," Nicolas continued. My brothers stiffened at the mention of our family's home being invaded by rogues.

"Down north, where I come from, there were sightings. There was one attack, recently. A child, my nephew, was taken from outside his house by a group of rogues. Lucky for us, Alison was there to save him before he got hurt or taken. Strangely enough, when we went looking for the rogues that were killed, their bodies were gone," Nicolas explained, offering me a small smile. I glanced at Mason who was smiling at me also.

"There have been a significant number of sightings and attacks in Takiani and a lot of sightings here in Terialta, where the most recent sighting was yesterday morning," Christian finally spoke up. Everyone looked a little shocked at his words.

I was a little shocked too. I hadn't realised that the most recent sighting was only the day before. It made me more anxious and nervous.

"Does anyone know what was the same in every story?" Nicolas finally breathed out. I glanced around at everyone. They were all exchanging looks with each other before Samaya finally cleared his throat.

"There was no scent to trace," Samaya said, his words dreadful. He sounded like he had just come across a realisation of some sort. He was beginning to understand.

"Exactly. Each time there were attacks or sightings in any pack, the security was tightened and people were restricted to going places by themselves. Right?" Nicolas said, flicking through the pages of his book. His beast was buzzing. He wanted to know more. He wanted answers.
