Yasmyn's POV
"Quit the act. Tell me why you are here and get out before my pack members suspect you behind my brother's food poisoning," I told Colton but he looked at me dead in the eye.
"Why would I lie about something like this? Silas told me to come here and see if you need any protection but seeing what I am seeing here," Colton paused as he glanced between Brendan and me,"I don't think you need protection from me"
No one in the room said anything. Just the men who glared at each other and occasionally growled at each other.
"Shut up before I throw both of you out," I screamed at them.
I can't even think properly with everything that's happening and here the men are, fighting over absolutely nothing.
"Let us forget about Silas for a minute here," I paused and stared at Colton, my mind coming up with an idea that I think is going to help us,"I need your help"
Colton raised his eyebrow at me, silently asking me what I meant.
"If the poison is lab made, then there would sure as hell be an antidote. Or something to reverse whatever effect it has. And the formula will be only known by one who made it," I told Colton.
"Where is the part that you need my help with?" Colton asked me, crossing his arms over his chest probably for the dramatic effect.
"Well, you and your underaged Rogue Kids travel all the time under the disguise of crystal traders. Do me a favour and ask your people to report anything about poison to you. There's no way Andrews would have kept the man behind this right beside him in his own pack," I whispered.
"True. The poisons did come to the laboratory but the formula sheets come from a different place. My father never disclosed that to me," Brendan said.
If we can track the one who made this, then it will only get easier to understand who got the hands on one of those bottles.
I need to focus on people who would benefit if my brother dies. But for now, that is not what I want to think about.
"Now you guys get on with your work. Leave and come only if needed. I have to appoint a Beta who I can trust and start my own research," I said.
Colton looked at me with uncertainty but still walked out. But Brendan did not.
"I don't know what you have in your mind. But please don't do anything stupid," Brendan said making me smile.
I threw my arms over his shoulders and pulled him closer to place a kiss on his lips. I will miss him.
"You would trust this Beta. I am sure," I told him and his eyes went slightly wide.
Yess!!!
"It's about time," I smiled but it did not reach my eyes.
I am doing this because I am in need. Not because I believe whatever bullshit he tried to tell me for a while now.
Silas is going to come here again and he is going to stand as my shadow.
I hope he does not bring up the father crap.
