Chapter Sixty-Five

What the fuck?

Is Victoria dead? Is she alive?

Was she killed? Did she kill herself?

What on earth was going on?

I was so freaking confused that I was only able to utter out one word. "Huh?"

"Your mate can provide you with all the details." Isabella sent Vladamir a dirty look to which Vladamir responded by shrugging.

"So...is she alive then?"

This time it was Isabella who was shrugging. "We do not know. There is a chance she may be alive."

My eyes flickered over to Vladamir who was staring intently ahead. "Vladamir didn't see her die?"

Isabella shook her head. "No he did not."

So there was a chance she was alive but it wasn't a certainty. This ambiguity had done nothing to satiate my curiosity and questions, if anything it had amplified it.

"We are here." Vladamir informed us as he slowed the car down to a stop. While remaining seated, his scanned our environment, his eyes taking everything in.

My body shuddered without warning as if I entered a cold place. I wrapped my arms around my body as I copied Vladamir and Isabella and looked out the windows. The surroundings was the exact definition of abandoned building and area.

The surrounding woods looked just as lifeless as the abandoned building, isolated and surrounded by mushy lands. Darkness was everyone and the only source of light was the moon, glowing in the naked sky.

Upon closer inspection of the strange shaped building, I could see that the paint was chipping and peeling, the windows were broken and shingles had been torn from the dull brown roof. There was a door leading into the building, it was open and hanging on one hinge.

"Are you sure we're at the right place?" I whispered as I stared directly ahead at the building that looked like no one had set foot in it for years.

"Yes." Vladamir simply replied as he pulled out his phone.

"This doesn't seem right." I thought out loud. "If people were in there, there would have been light or movement."

Vladamir turned the engine off and tossed the keys over to Isabella. "Stay here with Leanne. If anything is amiss, leave immediately. Do not wait for me."

"Hang on." I grabbed Vladamir's shoulder. "Wait for the others to come, don't go in on your own." I knew Vladamir was going to argue so I spoke quickly. "Please Vladamir. Please wait."

The wait for the others wasn't too long as two cars parked up at either side of us. The Lycans in the other cars exited swiftly and stood around, their eyes taking in the surrounding just like we had done earlier.

"Wait!" I called out as Vladamir began to open the door.

Vladamir looked back at me and raised an eyebrow. "Yes?"

"Please be careful."

A nod was what Vladamir gave me before opening his door.

"Vladamir!"

"Leanne." Vladamir grumbled as he looked back in the car. "You are wasting my time."

His words had me questioning my next move but I decided not to let his words deter me. "Can you come here?"

He slammed the driver's side door before opening my door. Before he could grumble further, I lunged at him and wrapped my arms around him, catching him off-guard. His surprise only lasted a couple of seconds as he returned my hug and placed a small kiss at the top of my head.
