The Alpha's Mate Is A Spy novel Chapter 23

~*~

2 days ago -

After dealing with the pack business, i head straight to Rohan information guild to meet an important customer as scheduled. And so, i wore my usual black mask, that barely resembled a dragon's wrath.

The servant bows, {"Alpha, she's here."}

I nod.

I entered the room, the dim light fluttered around her as she sat impatiently on the chair, her eyes through the mask slightly showing displease.

As far as i know, Ms. Blank wasn't one to show emotions. We'd conduct business as quietly as possible. She's straight to the point and do her tasks well.

So this is a first. Seeing that she's irritated?

{"Ms. Blank, it's nice to meet you again. Did i make you wait too long?"} I greeted, clasping my hand together.

{"I told you to stop calling me that."}

I chuckled. {"Well, you wouldn't tell me your name so i came up with one. Now tell me, What information do you need now-"}

Wait a minute.

My eyes broadened when i saw the familiar necklace around her neck. Isn't that the same necklace as Venus? Don't tell me...They're the same person?

I carefully glanced at her and inspected her figure. Though she was wearing a shabby black one-piece that covered her body, her height was approximately the same. Her eyes in the right position, and her voice was strangely familiar too.

I grinned, the similarity is too great. So we've met even before that night? How intriguing.

{"I need all information regarding the Great five packs."}

{"That's easy, we'll get it ready for you in two hours. If you don't mind, can we chat for a bit?"} I asked excitedly.

I wanted to ask her about many things. Since we've only talked about business in this form, i was wondering how much information i'd get from her.

In short, i want to tease her a bit.

I slowly strode towards her, but as soon as i tried to lean on her ear, she quickly pushes me away. Through her mask, i saw her disgusted gaze that made me chuckle.

{"What are you doing?"} She growls lowly.

{"I just wanted to share some secret with you? I wouldn't want others to hear, right?"}

{"What the hell are you talking about? this room is heavily soundproof."}

I smiled coyly. I knew that for a fact, what i didn't was that she even knew that. Has she been here too many times that she memorized her surroundings?

I'll just get straight to the point.

{"Don't you want to know who's behind this mask?"}

{"No. Let's get straight to the point. What do you want me to do?"} She speaks frankly.

Hmm? How dull.

{"You really lack personality."} I said in a low voice, {"Always straight to business? Well, We don't have a task for you to do yet, we'll contact you once we decide on one."}

I sighed. I mean i expect her to be frank and boring since she's always been like that during the past transactions, But knowing that she's Venus, i'd expected for her to be more cunning and talkative.

I take back what i said. She has too many personalities to display, yet she's more like an actress in play. We've tried prying into her information once, and because of that we almost lost her. All we know about her is that she's from SunDale Pack- other than that, we weren't allowed to know anything.

Just.. who are you?

{"Okay,"} she replied, {"If that's all, you can leave."}

I chuckled, {"I'm the guild master you know, aren't you being too bland?"}

{"...."} She didn't answer.

As i stared at her, I wonder what her real thoughts are? What life she had lived that she was able to hide her emotions so well? I didn't want to push her buttons more than i have so i turned a heel and left the room as she wanted.

{"No worries, there's plenty of time to reveal more of your secrets."}

Present -

She held the ring dangling on her necklace and glanced at me, "So this is what you meant when you said you'll contact me soon? What do you want me to do?"
