The Wrath Of The Shadow Wolf novel Chapter 36

Mr. Johnson was inside of his car when he sighted Wright walking down the park from afar looking very furious. Wright had called him and had requested that he meet him here.

From the tone of Wright’s voice, Mr. Johnson already knew that whatever he wanted to say what very important and that it must have to do with the pack and so he wondered what might be the issue this time around.

The first thing Mr. Johnson did after he had received Wright’s call was to put a call across to Philip who informed him that he have not received any news from their men at the Pack neither had Wright reached out to him on any issue. This had gotten Mr. Johnson more worried and anxious as he awaited Wright’s arrival.

As Wright walked into the park, he used his eyes to try to figure out where Mr. Johnson had parked. The park was filled with cars and he wondered if there was an activity going around somewhere that he had not heard of.

His heart was beating very fast not out of fear, but because he feared for the safety of his household.

When he had opened the mailbox and an envelope had fallen off, he picked it up without giving it a second thought until that familiar smell hit him. At first, he had shivered and had looked around him to make sure that he was not been watched. And without going back inside or reaching any member of his family, he immediately entered his car and drove away. He then called Mr. Johnson to meet him up here.

Mr. Johnson had requested to know the reason for his anxiety over the phone, but since he had not read the letter, he could only ask him to meet with him immediately.

After he dropped the call with Mr. Johnson, he went ahead to open the letter and see what was contained in it. Inside of it was a letter and he unfolded the letter to see what message it had in it. The content of the letter was short, but it sent a cold shiver through his spine. Like a frightened child, he had started the car and driven straight to meet up with Mr. Johnson.

Wright wandered through the park, the colors of all the cars look just the same to him as he was not seeing clearly due to the thoughts that filled up his head. Nevertheless, he kept moving, in the hope that somehow, he would be able to come across Mr. Johnson.

Wright could hear a voice trying to get across to him. The voice seemed to be coming from very far away and he could not figure out who it was or if he had ever heard such a voice before.

He stopped and tried to look around but everywhere appeared just the same to him. He could not detect a single face and shadows hover around, this he figured should be the people in the park even though he was not sure if he was in the right place. His sight gets fuzzier by the seconds.

A hand grabbed him and he was going to hit the person when the voice stopped him.

“It is me, Wright. What is wrong with you? I have been standing right here calling you but it seems as if you are not even aware of my presence” Mr. Johnson.

“Mr. Johnson” Wright sighed.

His sight began to get clearer, and he could see Mr. Johnson standing right in front of him and every other thing in the park.

“I got carried away, I could barely see anything just now” he explained.

“Come on, let’s get into the car,” Mr. Johnson said and they both entered the car.

“What happened, why were you so worried?” Mr. Johnson asked.

“See” he flung the envelope at Mr. Johnson. “I just saw this letter in my mailbox”

Mr. Johnson took the letter and stared at it. He was wondering what could be the content of the letter to turn Wright into a shadow of himself in the blink of an eye.

“Come on, open it, take a look at the letter” he said.

Mr. Johnson opened the envelope and brought out the letter inside. He unfolded the letter and his eyes widened when he saw who the letter was from.

“Derrick” he bellowed. “What does he want and how come”

Mr. Johnson was bewildered and he could see why Wright had reacted the way he had done because even he would have done even worst.

“Go on, read it,” Wright said.

“Oh no,” Mr. Johnson said and read the letter aloud.

‘Hey Brother, see we get to keep in touch again.

Believe me, I would not have disturbed you but since my little niece who you have painstakingly hidden from me turned sixteen, I have patiently waited for you to bring me the good news of having one of you into our hood but too bad that was not to be because just like you, she will never be one of us. I know I should be expecting another tiny you very soon who for sure will be just like the first.

But sincerely, I envy how quick it was for you to forget Evolette even when my precious outcaste niece would rather have you all to herself. You will never change brother. Love and bond mean just nothing to you. But what if little niece is told who she is? Maybe we just leave that for another day.

Your nightmare, Derrick’

Shit” Mr. Johnson cursed after reading the letter.

“How did he get to reach me?” Wright asked.

“Obviously from an informant, we have a saboteur” Mr. Johnson replied.

“I just have to move right now. He must not come close to my family” Wright said.

“But you are not going to move just because of this, if you do, you would be doing exactly what he wants” Mr. Johnson objected.

“But why can’t he just leave me alone. I have left everything to him and even now, Rio is not the Shadow wolf. What does he want?” Wright lamented.

“He is driven by fear. He knows that he cannot be the alpha and he does not want you to have it either” Mr. Johnson replied.

“I know that already. But how did he get so much information about me? He has been trailing me and all along, I thought I was been smart and discreet” Wright said.

“He does not know of your whereabouts, Alpha,” Mr. Johnson said.

“Wright was confused by the reply. “How do you mean?” he asked.

“It is the handwork of some saboteurs, we were betrayed” Mr. Johnson responded.

“Then we need to get the saboteur already, he must pay for it” Wright ordered.

“That will not be a very nice choice” Mr. Johnson replied.

Wright was surprised at his objection. “What do you mean?”

“You and I know how Derrick operates. There is no way he would know where you stay and come by way of a mere letter. The letter goes to show that he does not even have the slightest idea of where you live” Mr. Johnson explained.

“But it was sent to my address,” Wright said.

“Yes. What I see is that whoever helped in sending the mail knows you very well, so he must be one of us. But he must have agreed to do it under a great threat from Derrick. We all know how unfair Derrick deals with people. So the person had in return for getting the letter to you, insisted that he was not going to reveal any details about where you live but would only ensure that the letter gets to you. And I think Derrick considered it as a fair deal because of the impact that he believes that it will have on you” Mr. Johnson explained.

“That is more like it. I cannot agree any less. I actually did allow myself to get caught up in fear. So what do you suggest we do next?” Wright asked.

“Nothing” Mr. Johnson replied.

“What! How do you mean nothing?” Wright exclaimed.

“He will be expecting us to do something. And that would be to get the culprit and deal with him. And I bet you Derrick’s eyes would be on the culprit anticipating our next move to enable them to get a trace of us. So we have to act as nothing had happened. But I will get my most reliable men to be on the lookout for the betrayer so that we can gradually cut him off. If Derrick can get him once, he would get him again” Mr. Johnson explained.

“That is a great idea. Please do all you can for this, I would not want a repetition” Wright said.
