Chapter 323

323 DO YOU THINK, YOU CAN TAKE RIVER?

Vanesha was surprised to see Sol had come. He was supposed to go with the first batch, but now he was here. Was there a change in the schedule that she didn’t know about? What was he going to do with her? She should be the first person to get the information about a change if there was any.

“I will wait for you outside,” Sol said to her, as he walked out of the room, while Vanesha followed him.

She looked at River and smiled reassuringly that she would be fine. There was nothing that she needed to be afraid of, that she would return as soon as possible.

River would be so anxious if she was left alone for longer periods, especially in a new place like this. Therefore, Vanesha was curious as to what Sol was going to say, since he was aware of this as well.

“What happened, Commander?” Vanesha asked, once she was outside.

But, the alarms in her head went off when she saw twelve men aim their guns at her. They were not playing, they intended to hurt her once she made a wrong move.

“What is it?” Vanesha hissed as she looked at Sol, confused. She wanted an answer from him about this odd situation.

And the answer that she got appalled her.

“I heard the conversation between you and Gael,” Sol admitted, and he reciprocated Vanesha’s stare when he answered her.

.....

Sol heard what Vanesha had said when she thought he wouldn’t follow her to the study room. He heard what she had planned with Gael.

Gael.

That name resonated with hatred in Sol’s mind. He had been hunting him down for the past few years. He thought he would show himself, since they got his daughter. But, he was more than a coward to send someone else, a young girl to seduce him at that.

One of the reasons why Sol didn’t leave the organization was because he thought he would have a chance to find Lise again with the same reason why Gael would hunt him down, yet he was so wrong about that.

Sol really wanted to see her again. It had been more than nine years since the last time he saw her.

Therefore, to find out Vanesha was a traitor and that she worked for Gael, he felt... betrayed. He thought this young girl was really into him. It didn’t mean he reciprocated her feelings all these years, but the feeling when your trust was being crushed, completely sucked.

“What is happening here?” Vanesha narrowed her eyes, as she looked at the door behind Sol, where River was, while twelve loaded guns were aimed at her. she tried to think about how to escape this situation, but it seemed, she didn’t have many options left.

And all of those plans had almost zero chance to succeed. Damn. Vanesha didn’t think about this at all.

“You need to come with us,” Adrik said. He was Sol’s best friend. He took Jasmine’s position when she was captured in her last mission and no one cared enough to get her back because the mission that she led had cost them so much and they couldn’t afford to lose such a battle again.

At least, not anytime soon and taking down that Shadow Moon pack was not worth their losses.

“Why?” Vanesha faced Adrik. “You don’t need to aim your gun at me. I am unarmed.” She raised both of her hands, turning both of her palms toward him. “This is humiliating, you shouldn’t treat me like this. If Mr. Archie Williams knows about this...”

“You don’t need to worry about that. I have informed him about your little disobedience,” Sol said, but he waved his hand to signal for those soldiers to put down their guns and they obliged without question, so did Adrik. “Now, go with them, so they can talk to you.”

Vanesha scoffed. “Talk?” She knew what would happen to her once she got into the interrogation room. “More like torture, you mean?”

Sol’s jaw tightened when he heard that, because he had the same line of thought about the word ‘talk’ after you were caught betraying the organization.

It didn’t happen often, but there were a handful of members from The Delta and The Hound, who had this radical idea that the supernatural creatures were the same as humans, that not all of them were horrendous.

That statement alone was laughable after what they had done to the previous capital city of Artzees. They must be drunk to think that way.

This was the reason why Nikolai didn’t want to talk much about his past that would relate him to Blue and Gael, since both of them were the first supernatural creatures that he knew, but the two of them were nothing like what the organization made them out to be.

Yet, Nikolai wouldn’t be vocal about this opinion, since he knew where exactly those people who did would end up.

“No one will hurt you,” Sol said patiently. He looked at Vanesha and there were complicated emotions in his eyes and this made her want to laugh.

If he cared about her, he wouldn’t have put herself through this kind of trouble. He would have confronted her about this privately instead.

But, he probably simply didn’t care...

“Sol, we both know that was a lie.” Vanesha put down her arms, as she talked to him.

“Be careful with your words,” Adrik warned her because she had disrespected Sol by calling him by his name directly.

Vanesha only gave him a single glance, without saying anything.

“Go with them, don’t cause trouble again. I will see you later.” Sol indeed would go to make sure that Vanesha wouldn’t be subjected to the full blown torture, but still there was limit to the things that he could do in this organization, as long as his father was the head of the organization.

“No,” Vanesha rejected the idea straight away. “Do you think you can take River without me?”
