My Mate From Another World

Adeline

What the hell is he doing here? “Adeline, are you alright?” I heard Daniel ask, but I couldn’t get my eyes off of that dead body not realizing that Dad and the police officer were staring at me too.

“Adeline,” Dad called, so I turned to face him. “Is there something wrong? Did you know him?” he asked curiously but I don’t know how I am going to tell him that I first met him in Kaiser’s world as the rogue who tried to harm me.

“Huh? No. At first glance, I thought he seemed familiar, but I was mistaken after giving him a closer look. How about you? Do you know him?” I replied confidently. I can’t waiver since his senses are so sharp that I cannot falter, in fear that he will find out that I am lying.

“We’ll talk later,” Dad replied, and I nodded. When my eyes landed on Daniel, I found him staring at me intently.

‘What?’ I asked through our link.

‘Nothing.’ he answered and started walking closer to the dead body, as did I. The more I got closer, the more he looked similar to the rogue that I beat up on my first day in Kaiser’s world. I kneeled and looked at him closer, and I realized that he indeed looked like that rogue, but I didn’t feel like he was him either. Why has there seemed to be so much mystery surrounding this place for the past month? Does this relate to my traveling across dimensions? Does Kaiser and I have anything to do with it? No, I don’t believe that.

How could it be possible when we are in two different worlds, right? There must be nothing more profound than the mate bond Kaiser insisted upon, after all. I certainly hope so. However, we are unable to overlook these persistently unpleasant situations. Little girls dying, whether from supernatural causes or not, is not an uncommon occurrence. Since it occurs more frequently than once per month, it is no longer isolated.

“Alpha Ringo, I am aware of your and your pack’s reputation, but you must come to the station so we can question you.” The police officer named Hunt said,

“I understand,” dad replied.

“Wait, why would Alpha need to go there? Are you thinking that he has something to do with everything that happens here?” I asked aggressively.

“Adeline, what do you think you’re saying?” Dad asked,

“But they want to take you.”

“Stop it; you know that they are only doing their job,” he replied.

“But we need to talk about this incident. It’s important that we settle these killings once and for all.” I exclaimed.

“Stop it, Adeline. Your ranting will not help in this situation,” my brother said.

“Daniel, make sure you discuss this with Mari and Remus. Make sure to include Adeline; she might be of help. I will ask for an update once I get back.”

“Yes, Dad.”

“But Dad,” I insisted.

“Calm down, dear; you do as I say and follow your brother,” he said. I can’t do anything but agree. Actually, this is something that pisses me off. I don’t have a say in anything, even if I am the pack’s Luna. Dad was superior to me since he is my father, so we didn’t have equal rank, unlike the alpha, who had his mate as his Luna. Daniel is my brother, and we grew up respecting each other and being the next alpha. He is also superior to me, plus he’s older than me.

Police Officer Hunt left the scene with Dad to go to the police station, while the others stayed to clear the area after they took the body to the morgue because they found out later that he was a human. That made me feel troubled again since I’ve seen someone who looks exactly like him who is a rogue. Now, more than ever, I want to go back to Kaiser’s world and ask him about that bastard. I need to know if something happens in his world as well, but that moron didn’t give me a serious answer when I asked him.

Back in the pack, Daniel and I went straight to the alpha’s office. We found Beta Mari and Gamma Remus waiting for us. Dad had mind-linked them and informed them about the urgency of the matter; he didn’t want to waste any more time and wanted to get the answer he wanted.

“Who is that man?” Daniel asked as soon as we were seated.

“He’s a friend.” Beta Mari replied.

“Your human friend?” I asked,

“Well, that’s what we want to find out,” he answered.

“We met when we were on a trip searching for someone.” Gamma Remus said,

“The three of you?” Daniel asked, and the two nodded.

“Who are you searching for? Did you find her or him?” I asked curiously. “Wait, am I even allowed to know this?”

“Luna, Alpha will be able to explain it to you.”

‘But he’s not here. He wanted us to discuss what had happened to that man. Upon checking, he had been killed with a weapon. Tell me, are we dealing with serial killers here?”

“Adeline, don’t get too hyped,” Daniel said calmly.

“How can I not? Beta said that the man was their friend. Naturally, I am worried for them, especially for Dad.” I explained. “What if whoever killed that man comes to them?”

“You’re overthinking, Adeline.” Beta Mari said it with conviction. “Nothing is going to happen to us, especially to Alpha. He’s the strongest alpha I know. He is well respected, and just his name made everyone quiver in fear.”

“You know that Dad is no longer the same alpha he was.” I rebut.

“He’ll get mad at you if he ever hears you, you know.” Gamma Remus said, smiling. I rolled my eyes at them because they were trying to make the conversation light, but in fact, it was not.

“Listen, this is a serious matter. Whoever did that to the man, what was his reason? What did that man do to deserve that kind of death?” I replied, making them feel my Luna aura, which I often use.

“Hey, Adeline,” Daniel said in a soothing voice. I looked at him and sighed heavily. “You really look hyped. Is there something you need to tell me?” Beta Mari and Gamma Remus are now looking at me as well. But I can’t tell my brother about the rogue I encountered in Kaiser’s world.

“Adeline,” Beta Mari said; now he’s serious. “The friend that I was talking about was not a human. He’s a rogue. So it puzzles us why the man that had been found on the outskirts of our border is a human.”

“Shit!” I exclaimed and got up. I need to go and see Kaiser!
