Novel Bin Chapter 91 Commotion In The Town Center
The fact that Sophie called Valerie and Lucia out for theft was an insult to the Limbergs and even the Hansley family. It was something that immediately started to attract more attention from the passerby that was only trying to go about their daily affairs.
It wasn\'t every day that three beautiful women would be found arguing in the street and throwing words at each other. A good number of the people actually knew who these women were and identified them from the Limberg household.
Lucia glared at her and said threateningly. "You better be careful with your words, Sophie. You might end up swallowing them."
***
Duncan, who was now accompanied by Max, was now on an urgent mission to find Sophie and it involved following the trail of scent that was left by Leland on her.
It had already been some days since Leland left and now there was a high chance that their Alpha would return and be furious at them for failing at their job to protect his woman.
The two Lycans couldn\'t do things like leaping from one building to another to search for Sophie so he was at a disadvantage. Since it was broad daylight, Duncan and his friend needed to pretend they were regular humans.
When they arrived at Hastings town, the two would find themselves engulfed with the scent of too many things at once and immediately pinched their noses. Hauntingen town was small and the people there sometimes smelled like trees and their environment.
However, Hastings was a lot bigger and denser that the scent was all mixing together for the poor lycan unused to the bustling town life. Unlike both Hauntingen and the tribe of Blood River Pack, everything was too much.
Max sighed and only looked around. "The two of us should split and look for her."
The two Lycans ended up separating to look for Sophie and yet would find themselves lost in the sea of people. Normally, people would call out for the name of the people they were looking for, but it was different for the Lycans.
Duncan and Max needed to find Sophie while not letting her know that she was being guarded and monitored. This was something that would probably not sit well with her if she were to find out that she was being watched by them without her permission.
This was all for her own good though because their Alpha wasn\'t always around to protect her. So, the two lycans moved and did their best to avoid large crowds… Unfortunately, this made them fail to realize that it was Sophie and her two cousins who gathered a spectacle around them.
"Are you threatening me, Lucia?" Sophie narrowed her eyes on her cousin. "You have no warrant to arrest me or even put me in a situation like this. In any other instance, I could be the one asking you to be taken by the city guards for causing a commotion."
It was in the rules of the Hasting and even other cities that any incident that resulted in some kind of public outrage or incident could be stopped by the city guards that operated in the city. Right now, Sophie just wanted to leave but her cousins were trying to stop her.
"You\'re also a part of this!" Lucia hissed. "If the city guards will arrest us, I will make sure they will arrest you too!"
"I\'m only trying to leave. So, please leave me alone." Sophie walked past the two of her cousins and eventually left the crowd of watchers. The hubbub in the streets of Hasting started to diminish after Sophie left.
A lot of questions started to spur among the people of Hastings as they looked at the two women who messed with Sophie in a different light. The Limberg family was actually esteemed and well-liked in Hastings.
Valerie also happened to have gotten close to their mayor\'s son so their reputation was respectable… but this incident in the market place was like an ugly mar in their name. Sophie mentioning the inheritance was bad for them.
The two young women exchanged looks with one another and Lucia was positively seething in anger and wanted to make Sophie pay for those words. Valerie was embarrassed as the people all started looking.
"Well, keep walking, Valerie," Lucia hissed at her sister. "We can\'t let that skank get away from our sight."
"Got it," Valerie said and immediately started walking forward in the same direction of Sophie. The two young women had no idea where Sophie stayed and actually assumed that the woman died when she went away last winter.
However, seeing her alive and also well… while also publicly humiliating them?
It did not sit well for Valerie.
She and her sister couldn\'t do anything while they were in the eyes of the townspeople but once Sophie left and the people dispersed to go about their business, the two cousins chased after Sophie discreetly.
When Sophie was outside of the town, she found herself feeling something come in from behind her and she barely dodged in time to find that a stone was thrown in her direction.
Classic Lucia and Valerie, even when they were outside of Cawden Academy, the women never stopped harassing her.
"Leave me alone!" Sophie yelled at them.
"Not until you return what\'s truly ours!" Valerie shouted. "Give us back all the jewelry you have stolen from our home, THIEF!!"
