Chapter Fifty-Five

I walk back into the living area where Brandon was sat on the chest of drawers, I know he just heard the whole conversation I had with my mother as he opens his arms up. I walk over accepting the hug thanking him. "What you said back there was all true, she deserves to be put away for hiding Richard" he tells me giving me one last squeeze before we both pull away, I nod my head agreeing with him while the Alpha walks in the room with my mother, also closing the door. Before I had the time to walk over to see what he was doing, Julian runs out from wherever he was holding a piece of paper in his hands. Without speaking, I'm handed this mystery paper. It read. "Dearest Taylor, Once again, I know you're so close to finding everything out so you'll find this no problem. Now you know about my secret identity and your mother and me marrying, I know I'll soon be caught. You're so kind that I know you might allow me this, before I'm willing to give myself up I need something from you. Since that horrible night all those years ago, I always had this feeling of care towards you. Then when your mother turned up and we fell in love, it all became clear. You're like the daughter that I never had, even if that's hard for you to believe. But now I've married your mother, that makes me your step father in whatever way you look at it. I want to see both of my children before what's coming to me comes, only after that point will I finally hold my hands up and accept it. I need you and Lukas and only you and Lukas, I will know if any other alliance agent or your Alpha joins you. To meet me where it really all started, I know you'll work out where that spot is no problem. See you tonight at dusk. Richard" I was at a lost for words reading this letter in front of me, either he's playing some weird mind games with me, or for some reason he feels that way. This could be a trap to lure Lukas out so he can do what he's been planning and get me with no backup. Or he's telling the truth and for some reason is playing with us one last time before his time runs out, I'm not sure what one it is yet. We were soon sat in the main room back at the alliance, after reading the letter to Morgan and the guys we all sat down thinking. From the outside, this would be a great opportunity to finally grab Richard, he's literally handing himself on a plate to us. But knowing what we know about him, this could be one of his crazy evil plans to get us. Lukas hadn't spoken since I read out the letter, but I could tell by the look on his face that his brain was going at hundred miles an hour. "I don't know if I trust him enough to send you two, yes this would be a great chance to get him but what if it goes wrong, we won't be there to help?" Morgan asks from behind his desk, I didn't actually have an answer but to look down at the desk. He told us to meet him tonight at dusk, which gave us just over three hours to decide what we were gonna do and work out where this meeting place even was. He keeps saying he's going back to where all this started, the first was the first attack he ever did on his uncle. But what does he mean where it all really started, does he mean what happened with Thomas when Denton took the blame? We could head over to the house they were found in, but when reading through the documents and evidence from that case. It was determined by the investigators that the accident didn't happen at the house, Denton and now we know Richard moved him from wherever that took place. The only problem is, we don't know where it took place! "This could be the only chance we're going to get to catch him, yes it's dangerous but isn't that why we all signed up for this job in the first place?" Julian asks snapping me from my wondering thoughts, what he was saying was also true, we all had valid points. "You're only understanding and happy with the idea because it isn't you who will be sent out, it will be my mate and Beta" Toby chimes in joining the conversation, I take a look up at him before heading towards the files on Richard, even if we don't end up meeting him we still need to know where this place is. I leave the main room and head towards the filing room, where I had the phone conversation with my dad that time. I skim through the files on the shelf before landing on the one I needed. It was the investigation on Thomas's murder and all the evidence they collected, maybe I'll be able to see something that the investigators missed or overlooked. I jump up on the counter and start reading over everything, the little room was drowning out the loud shouts that were erupting from the main room. I knew who was arguing but I didn't have time for that, I needed to figure out where Richard wants to meet. Only than will I start making a decision on whether to go or not, in reality it's up to me and Lukas. I stumble across the interview Denton gave after he got caught, he said it was just like any other normal day. Thomas and Richard went to meet him at his work just before it ended, apparently they did this everyday. Wait could Denton's place of work be the place Thomas was killed? I need to find out where he worked and find any clues, I know what you all are probably thinking. We have Denton kept here, why don't I just go and ask him myself? Right now the inmates are having their dinner and time to get some fresh air, I would need to hunt him down to ask which would be wasting time we frankly don't have. I turn my attention to the files on the other shelf, skimming through until I find Denton's name. This is the part of the job that is sometimes annoying, when you have to go off other agents work from years ago. Some agents never leave any type of notes, they keep it all in their heads which might be helpful to them at the time. But it's horrible for someone like me who has to look into it many years later, only to find the notes section empty! I open up the file only to be struck with the same annoying realisation, the section about his place of work was empty! Have you ever wanted to throw a chair at someone who you've never met? This is the time when it really makes it hard not too! So it was now time for me to start doing the investigators job for them! I decide it would be a good call to take a look at the clothes Denton was wearing, it's protocol to take photos of anything the person comes in with. So I knew somewhere in this heap of nothingness, his items of clothing would be looking back at me. I finally find the photos of everything Denton came in with which included his clothes, he wore black jeans a white top and a boomer jacket. This wasn't really telling until I took a closer look on the jacket and make a shocking discovery, the same design that was on this jacket was the one we found from Richards jacket! This is when I could use Brandon's help! I take a look outside into the main room, Julian and Toby were still shouting with Morgan between both of them. Brandon was sat off to the side with his laptop open but was just staring off into space, he always goes off into his own little world when confrontation happens. I pull my phone out taking a photo of the photo before sending it over to him. "I need to know where this logo is from, we couldn't find a match on Richards as it was too old but this is much clearer" I send over to Branson before taking a look back out, he soon snaps from his trance to read the message before heading back to work. "This was so much easier, it's from a building company that used to help packs start up. Building things like the pack houses" he instantly replies which was exactly what I needed and it might explain how Richard got ahold of the blueprints to Toby's pack. "I need to know where this building place was based at" I reply quickly knowing this was probably what Richard was talking about, Brandon was soon typing away on his laptop before I got a reply. "They owned a warehouse south of Toby's pack" he replies sending me the address and map of the place. We've only just gone and found it!
