Fake Kaiser
Adeline
What Sonja said confirmed everything that I had found out about my world. Although she thought that Kaiser and I were the previous Alpha and Luna of the pack, I don’t think the same. It doesn’t feel that way for me. Maybe at some point, I am connected to this world through Elda; other than her, nothing.
Kaiser let Sonja leave after we thanked her. I understand her and her family’s hesitation in telling their Alpha’sAlpha about that notebook and its content, but it could have been better if they had tried.
We were left in the office because I needed to tell them what happened to me while I couldn’t reach Elda and couldn’t get there. “What happened there, baby?” Kaiser asked, so I started telling them.

“Hey, is there something wrong?” Kaiser asked; we just kissed, and I couldn’t take it anymore. He’s not the Kaiser I know; he’s not my mate. But I had to pretend and go with the flow. I didn’t want him to be cautious of me. I need to find out who he is and why he is doing this. We sat on the couch as we were in the hotel where he was staying.
“It’s Dad,” I answered, trying to give him an alibi so that he would not be able to know whether I was telling the truth.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“What about your father?” he asked, concerned. “Don’t tell me you’re still seeing Mike,” he asked, and I could sense his anger. Did he know Mike as well? Wait, did he do something to him already? Worry flooded me when I realized I had not seen Mike for a long time.
“No, he has nothing to do with it,” I replied, making him raise a brow. “We haven’t seen each other since I found out that we’re mates.”
“I see, so what seems to be the problem with your Dad?”
“He had been warning me about my safety. He didn’t want me to go out alone.” I answered.
“Didn’t he know you already found your mate?” he asked. I chuckled because the real Kaiser knew that I already told Dad about him.
“How can I tell him that? You’re from a different world, and I’m sure he would want to meet you once I told him about you. I don’t know how I will bring you here or him to you.” I sighed heavily so he’d think I was thinking about our situation.
“So what do you plan to do?” he asked as I leaned on his chest. I felt him caressing my arms, and in fairness, I could feel that he cared for me, but no thanks, he’s not my Kaiser.
“What do you think?” I asked, “Do you want to meet Dad?”
“That would be nice,” he replied, making me smile internally.
“Are you going to come with me?”
“Do you think you need to give him a heads-up? It’s not every day that he meets someone from another world, yeah?” I chuckled and nodded. He was thinking and acting like he was really my mate. This should be good; at least I didn’t suggest that he inform Dad about him first.
I looked at him and said, “I guess you’re right. I just hope that he will take these things lightly.”
“How about your brother?” he asked. So, he also knows about Daniel? What about Milka?
“He loves me so much and believes everything I tell him,” I replied,
“Really?” he asked, and I nodded. The plan was set, and I stayed in the hotel with him the whole day. Before I left him, we agreed that I would come back the next day, but he told me to take my time and never to rush things. He also said that he wanted to meet my father, so he had to prepare for that as well. So, I was scheduled to return to him in two days instead of the next day.
In the pack, Dad and Daniel are waiting for me with Milka. I called them in the Dad’s office to discuss what happened and what I had found out. “Oh goddess, Adeline!” my friend exclaimed. “If you had not contacted Elda for weeks, you should have told me. I know ways to connect to her.” My eyes widened after my friend told me that. But first thing first.
“How are we going to trap that fake mate of yours?” Dad voiced my concern.
“We can assume that he’s dangerous. Going here by himself means he’s prepared for whatever happens.” Daniel chimed in, and I agreed with him. It was also why I had to act in front of him. I was scared that he had already moved to corner me in case I confronted him.
“What does your mate look like?” Milka asked. I took my phone and showed her the face of the fake Kaiser. It’s a good thing we decided to take photos, and he agreed.
“Goddess!” She exclaimed, making us crease our foreheads.
“Why?” Daniels asked worriedly.
“It’s him, Adeline. The man I saw in the dead body’s memories. The one who was taking the life of the human girls.”
“What!” I exclaimed as well.
“I’m sure of it. Remember I told you I already saw half of his face regenerated?” Milka asked, and I nodded. “He looks like that.”
“What’s going on, dear?” Dad asked.
“I don’t know either, but we will find that out once we capture him.”
“But how are we going to do it?” It was Daniel.
“Let’s do it my way,” Milka replied, and we listened to her plan. She was so happy that she decided to leave to search for additional knowledge. She stumbled upon an old woman who taught her how to cast a spell to cage someone without actually caging them.
We set the plan before Milka helped me to connect to my wolf while Dad and Daniel gathered everyone in a meeting to make necessary plans just in case something we didn’t expect to happen. For example, if the fake Kaiser had allies who would help him escape,
My friend and I were in my room when she started summoning Elda again. Before that, she concentrated as she touched me. She said she wanted to look in the deepest part of my being, thinking my wolf was trapped there.
“Elda is unconscious,” she said after she opened her eyes.
“Why?” I asked, confused. I didn’t remember her telling me that she wanted to sleep.
“Someone must have cast a spell on you to make her unconscious, so you won’t be able to talk to her without you knowing,” Milka answered. But who? I don’t remember meeting anyone other than the humans in the police station.
“At the police station, when we talked to Officer Hunt, someone gave us a drink, right?” I asked, making Milka’s eyes widen.
“Do you think there’s wolfbane in the drink that affected your wolf?”
“It’s possible. You know how lethal that poison is to our wolf.” I answered. Since we already knew the reason why I couldn’t reach Elda, we went to the pack hospital and asked for something that would help me take out the remaining poison in my body.
“You are strong for not being affected by the poison, Adeline.” Said Dr. Hans. Yeah, I was lucky. “You need to rest at least for six hours. After that, you can reach out to your wolf,” he added.
“Thank you, doctor,” I replied, smiling before he left me and Milka in my hospital room. While I was resting, my friend took a small notebook and wrote something in it. “What are you writing?” I asked curiously.
“Something will help you. Don’t disturb me; just rest,” she answered, so I did as she said. I closed my eyes and took this chance to rest and sleep well.
