1035 Â There on our side now?
With the details discussed, the group didnât want to waste any time and decided it was best to spring into action, but Gary wanted to make sure of something else.
âOlivia, do you mind trying to find where Xin is? Try asking the guys where she was last spotted. Maybe youâll be able to track her down,â Gary asked.
There was a reason behind Gary asking Olivia this, and it was due to her class of being a hunter. Although Xin wasnât marked, and Gary didnât really know where she was, the Werewolves still had a great sense of smell, and the hunter class even more so.
There was a time when Xin had gone missing, and Gary had somewhat been able to track her, so he thought Olivia would be able to do the same.
Along with her being an older woman with her experience, Gary believed she would at least be able to guess where Xin might end up.
âI canât promise anything, but Iâll give it a go,â Olivia said. âJust be thankful that Kai got me a new whip, but since itâs the funds of the Howlers, I guess it came from you.â
It was a task for her to do on her own, and then Gary turned to face Daphne Bree.
âThis isnât a good place for the two of us,â Daphne said. âEspecially since itâs trashed, and part of your new powers seem to have a fire effect.â
Quite a bit of the large chunks of ice that had been thrown around were partly melted.
âI can think of a couple of areas where we can go,â Gary said.
As the two of them were getting ready to leave, Kaiâs phone started to ring. Seeing the name on the screen, he raised his hand, gesturing toward Gary before answering.
âAlright⊠alright, I understand, weâll be there right away,â Kai replied.
After hanging up the phone, Kai walked over to the two of them.
âYou canât leave just yet. It looks like Elijah is in Slough. Heâs at the Wolfâs Pool Club and wants to meet with us.â
The core members of the Howlers, along with Park, their new driver, went from the ice ring to the Wolfâs Pool Club. Only Olivia wasnât present, as she had gone to carry out her own important task.
When they arrived, they could see Elijah waiting out front.
âWhat theâŠâ Elijahâs mouth was left open as he stared directly at Daphne. âWhat is she doing here⊠what is⊠what is going on?â
âYou recognize her? I didnât have a clue who she was,â Austin commented.
âI mean, we have all of the Kings on file, so an important figure like herâof course, we would know about her,â Elijah replied, continuing to stare.
âCan you guys stop talking as if Iâm not here? Iâm right here, and besides, donât you have important matters to discuss, or are we just going to stand outside all day?â Daphne asked.
The group walked inside, and unlike other days, the pool club was open this time. However, most of the members inside were part of the Howlers Gang anyway.
It had become a place for them to relax and calm down. As usual, they headed to the underground floor, where they could discuss various matters.
âWow, you guys are really showing me all your secrets,â Daphne said, looking around. âIâll know what places to target if we ever become enemies.â
Marie and Austin both turned to look at Daphne at that moment, thinking it wasnât a very good joke.
As they sat down, Elijah took a deep breath and looked toward Daphne before speaking.
âItâs okay, you said this was about Harvor, right? If it is, then she needs to hear this as well,â Kai stated.
âAlright, well, I was actually sent here by Kanu,â Elijah started.
Gary remembered Kanuâtechnically, he was Jaydenâs brother-in-law, and the man who had told Gary the entire truth about his past.
âKanu wanted me to tell you that he has started an investigation into the One Gang,â Elijah explained. âHonestly, due to his position, itâs not something he should be doing.â
âBut he used every string he could pull, every favor he had within the White Rose, to start this investigation. It happened after he saw what occurred between Harvor and Jayden in the match.â
âOn the surface, the investigation is about the giant Dragon Altered that flew through the city. The White Rose deals with Altered matters, and a few people were hurt just from the sheer size of the Dragon.â
âThereâs no official link between the Dragon and Harvor. Regardless, this is just on the surface. Iâm pretty sure Kanu is trying to find out what happened to Jayden or dig up some dirt on the One Gang.â
âRight now, theyâre tied up, but it canât stay this way forever, and eventually, they will be on the move again.â
Kai finally had his answer as to why the One Gang hadnât moved. Last time, the White Rose was the one obstructing the Howlers and Gary; this time, they were on their side, helping hold Harvor back.
âYou said Kanu is doing everything he can, so can the White Rose get involved more and try to bring in Harvor?â Kai asked. âJust like they did with Gary?â
Elijah shook his head.
âWe have absolutely nothing on Harvor. Iâm sure if Kanu did, he would have tried to do something about it a long time ago.â
âWhich is why Kanu wanted to give you this message. If you find anything related to the One Gang that can get the White Rose to move, bring it to him immediately.â
âIf you do that, then the White Rose will be able to help in taking down the One Gang.â Elijah slammed his fist on the table.
