Sold To The Alphas I Hate novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285: Hooded Figure And The Pendent

Kael’s POV

Lucian and Jason had been out for so long and returned by dinner time. Once we had dinner together and Raven had fallen asleep, it was time to talk.

And this time, Eira was involved in the talk.

Jason connected a device with the TV while Lucian explained to us.

"During Eira’s days in the prison, there is one particular day when the video footage is erased," he looked at me, "the footage of the next night after you visited prison."

"Someone indeed came to meet Eira?" I concluded.

Lucian hummed. "We checked any other footage if we got any clues from places around except for the prison, then we found a suspicious vehicle. But I couldn’t see the person."

"About the people present during the duty in prison?" I asked.

"Most of them are dead," Lucian said as he sighed, "Some bastards paid with their lives for hurting Eira."

He referred to those bastards Lucian and Jason killed in the prison that night after we got to know how they had hurt Eira.

"One or two who were not involved in hurting Eira but were on duty, they admitted that a car and two hooded figures entered the prison that night. One offered a bag full of cash to the prison incharge and the other one was led to the criminal cells," Lucian said. "What happened after that they don’t know."

Jason returned to the sofa and said, "When we showed him this suspicious car’s picture, it turned out to be the same car that entered the prison that night," and he turned on the TV on which the images and video of that car were played, and unclear hooded figures were seen.

"Any more information about them?" I asked.

"Not yet," Jason said, "But our people are at it...."

"Eira, are you alright?" Suddenly we heard Roman say in worry.

We quickly looked at her.

She had her eyes closed, brows knitted, and her both hands cupped her head, her breathing shallow.

"Eira," I hurried by her side and knelt in front of her.

Through the bond I could feel her restlessness and feeling of fear. "What happened?"

She had her moment of silence before looking at me with her moist eyes and then she looked at the screen. "That thing in hand...I remember it..."

All of us looked at the screen. In one picture, a hand of a hooded figure was resting at the window sill of the car and there was something around the wrist. A specific pendant hung in the black string wrapped around the wrist.

Jason picked up the remote and zoomed the image. A small silver pendant made in some ancient symbol design with a black stone embedded in the middle.

I looked back at her. "Where did you see it before?" I asked.

She closed her eyes as if something was troubling her and she mumbled. "...in prison... a hooded figure talking to me... hand had it..."

Through broken words, we understood what she meant. I allowed her a moment to process it.

"This pendant doesn’t look ordinary," Rafe commented.

"I will find out what this pendant is about," Jason said.

"Now we know these are the bastards, I’ll find out where they came from," Lucian said.

I turned my attention back to Eira. "Anything else you remember? What did that person say to you or anything?"

She shook her head and closed her eyes once more. Remembering it looked stressful for her.

I held her hands and caressed them gently to comfort her. "It’s alright. Don’t force yourself to remember it. If you are meant to remember, it will come to you on its own."
