Now came the hard part of her job, telling the family that they were right and that their loved one was murdered.
After telling the family and getting hugged in thanks for giving them the answer they knew but dreaded was true. Luka gathered her belongings and headed out for the night, she almost made it to her truck when a scent caught her under her nose, her Alpha was back, and he was following her.
" What should I call you? By your name? Or Alpha? " Luka asked, facing away from him when she stopped on the sidewalk, facing her truck instead.
" You can start by calling me by name, it's Savji. "
" Latin for Savage. Interesting choice of name for someone who seems like a good guy. "
" The name was my father's idea. Which of your parents named you Luka? "
" My mother, she like the names Lucas and Jake. She was expecting a boy, got me as a surprise so she named me Luka. "
" You're not from here. "
" Neither are you. "
" True. Why come here? "
" Done your homework I see. "
" Detective. "
" I know. I saw the badge and gun. "
" But my homework doesn't tell me why you came here. "
" Needed a change of scenery, and I've always loved Wyoming. "
" Someone hurt back home. " He guessed, correctly, but she wasn't going to let him know that.
" I just wanted a change of scenery, and I've dreamed of coming here for a long time. That's all. "
" Who's your best friend? "
" I don't have friends Detective. All I ever had was my family. "
" Why won't you look me in eye? "
" For one I'm facing away from you. "
" I know that! I'm talking about earlier; you looked me in the eye for a moment and then changed your posture to that of an Omega who has been hurt or is hurting. I don't smell any fresh injuries on you, and I saw no bruises, so it's the latter, you were hurt before, who was it that hurt you? "
" Why do you want to know? "
" I want to know so I can find them and kill them. "
Luka turned around then, but she still didn't look him in the eye, he growled at her submissive behavior, but she still refused to look into those golden hazel eyes.
" Why would you do that? "
" Because I am your Alpha and I will not tolerate anyone harming you whether it was in the past or now. So, who was it? "
" I don't wish him dead. I do however wish he'd lose his balls in a horrific accident. "
Savji growled again, mistaken what she was implying, " He raped you?! "
" No! God no! He only...Look it's been a long day, and I need to get home to feed my dogs and horses. It's stupid anyway on how he treated me and how reacted. So, if you'll excuse me Savji. " Luka turned back around to go to her truck, she got in and started the truck before he approached her again.
" Tell me what he did. "
" If I told you of every person that's hurt me, you'd go and kill them? "
" I would. "
" And what if I told you I didn't wish for that to happen? "
" Then I won't, if that is what you wish. "
" It's what I wish, those people are not worth you going to prison for. Not for me. " She put the truck in reverse, and he backed away from the truck, watching her leave, wondering why she would think so little of herself.
