Chapter 572
Griffin's POV
"Tell me what you said to her," I growled, my wolf forcing itself to the surface.noveldrama
The color completely drained from Rachel's face. She was staring at me as I had just struck her. My patience was running thin, and she knew it; I saw the way she trembled, the way her eyes darted back and forth like she was planning an escape. She glanced at her phone sitting on the bedside table, and before she could even think about it, I snatched it. She sucked in a startled breath, her fingers curling in until her hands were balled into fists.
"Give me my phone," she said, her tone trembling though it was obvious she was trying to keep it steady.
"Answer my fucking question," I growled.
"What proof do you have that I'm lying to you?" She asked.
"I did a paternity test," Eliza said, walking into the room with a piece of paper. "Alpha Gavin isn't your baby's father. Your baby is half human, which makes him an Omega. A Lycan would never have an Omega child."
Rachel's face paled even more before her eyes flashed with anger.
"Who gave you permission to give my baby a paternity test?!" She asked, her voice rising as her anger grew.
"I did," I sneered. "Now answer my fucking question. What did you say to Judy that night?"
Rachel stared between the two of us, a panicked look in her eyes. Her fingers fidgeted against the thin blanket that covered her.
"I told her that I had it handled, and I'll take care of you," she said, refusing to meet my eyes.
"You said something else. Why was she upset?
Rachel rolled her eyes.
"I might have insinuated that we are together," she muttered.
My heart sank at her words. I needed to find Judy and set the record straight. But first, I needed to deal with Rachel.
"Who are you working for?
She grinned.
"I will never tell you," she said, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "But know, our plan is already in motion, and you don't even know about it."
My blood was boiling; I had no idea what the fuck she meant. All I wanted was for her to get out of my pack.
The door opened, and Taylor and Derek walked in with a few other gamma warriors.
"Take her to the holding cell," I ordered, pointing at Rachel.
Her eyes grew large.
"You can't be serious! I'm pregnant you assholes!" She screeched.
The gammas grabbed her and forced her out of bed. She stumbled along with
them, growling and yelling as they dragged her to the door.
"You are going to regret this!" She growled, struggling against their hold.
"You'll tell us the information we seek sooner or later, Rachel," I told her, my eyes narrowing. "Even if we have to torture it out of you."
"You wouldn't dare! I'm pregnant!!"
"Try me."
The serious look in my eyes told her that I meant what I said; her eyes widened, and she retreated from her stance.
I motioned for the gammas to take her away, and they dragged her out of the room, leaving me alone with Derek, Taylor, and Eliza.
'Do you think it's Levi she's working with?"
I nodded; I had no I doubt in my mind that fucker was behind this. My wolf was growling angrily; I should have listened to him to begin with and not allowed Rachel access to my pack. I should have kicked her out the second she arrived at my door. But I wasn't going to let her ruin anything else in my life. I needed to fix the damage she had caused and hoped to the Moon
Goddess it wasn't too late.
"Follow them to the dungeon and try to get whatever answers you can from her," I
tell Derek.
He nodded and left the room.
I turn to Taylor.
"I want a statement made announcing that I am not the baby's father, and for
everyone who saw the previous news report to disregard it."
"I'll get the editor on the phone," he tells me before turning to his mate. "Can you
print me a copy of the DNA report?"
"Of course," she said, following him out of the room.
I ran my fingers through my hair and
grabbed my phone. I did something I should have done a couple of weeks after my night with her... her..d called
O.UMS
Judy.
It went straight to voicemail.
I frowned as I stared at the screen. I tried her one more time but got the same
result.
As I was leaving the hospital, I tried Nan's phone. After a few rings, I went to voicemail.
Did she just deny my call?
Erik was waiting in the car for me; he came after I sent Taylor away on his task. I got into the backseat. I knew Erik and Judy had become friends, so figured maybe he'd know where Judy was this afternoon.
"Do you know where Judy is?"
He tensed at my question and then cleared his throat.
