Chapter 495 Letters To The Council- Part 3



I hope you are doing well since the last letter I sent you. I am aware Damien Quinn has dropped you a note on his extended stay and I hope you can grant it as there are a few things they are looking over.\'

Reuben paused himself staring at the sentence to wonder who \'they\' meant here. Knowing the younger pureblooded vampire, Damien had no patience when it came to working with others. Either the person was called enough names to irk the other councilmen or they came back to this room with broken fingers which Damien liked snapping.

There had been so many incidents in the past that Rueben had finally s.h.i.+fted Damien where he had the niche skills to swindle and pull out information, unlike others.

Rueben continued to read Alexander\'s letter,

\'I am looking for a case which was closed more than a decade or so ago. It was on the witch family who lived not far from the Delcorv\'s mansion. They go by the name of Artemis. If you give out the information on the file, it would be helpful which now lies in the locked storage room.

Will be writing you another letter soon.\'

Below the content, it was signed by Alexander Delcrov, the son of the woman he once loved and treasured. Getting up from his seat, he put Damien\'s letter with the other letters while putting Alexander\'s letter in the fire as it was confidential information.

Making his way out of the room, he was greeted by members of the council who worked in the building.

The storage room was a room where the old cases which had been dealt with until now had been stored. They were things which were not accessible to all the councilman or councilwoman who worked there. The only person who held the key was him, Rueben himself yet one of the councilpersons had been able to break in along with a creature who was later killed.

He sighed as he remembered the incident.

It was a bad time when the switchers had got a hold into the council building. To think a creature that could s.h.i.+ft appearance along with the clothes was something he had never heard of until the incident was brought forward by Damien.

He didn\'t know how councilwoman Vivian Carmichael had got into the room, especially when there were two guards guarding it. But thanks to her, the switcher had been caught along with another old case that had never been covered properly. Rueben continued to walk, his shoes clicking on the white marble floor, making his way towards the storage room.

Reaching the front of the storage room, the guards who were a.s.signed bowed their heads letting him in. He picked up one of the lanterns, and then picked another with his other hand. Walking inside to step into a large dome-like room that had several shelves both on the left and right side.

Placing one of the lanterns at the front, he walked through the shelves remembering what happened weeks or months ago here. He had been called after the guard found a councilman\'s dead body lying on the floor. It was the dead body of the councilman who was part of Lionel\'s team. Pus.h.i.+ng the thoughts of that day which had seen the most dead councilmen in that period of time, he tried remembering about the Artemis.

The name did sound familiar as he was the one who had to run through the final closing of the case before placing the items of the case in the storage room along with the reports and files.

His hand holding the lantern up and high, he looked at the years and the order of the files. There were some out of place and he realized he had to get someone to sort them in order.

Using the long ladder, he started to climb and started looking for the year one by one which took time before he finally found the dusty box with files in it but no item in there.

Opening the files, he started to read the contents, murmuring under his breath,

"Family\'s children had gone missing at so and so date and their bodies were later found in the nearby well which wasn\'t too far from the house of the Artemis. Considered to be an unfortunate accident the case was dismissed over the fates of the children. Hmm," Rueben hummed, "Doesn\'t look interesting apart from them being a pair of witches." Walking down the stairs along with files that he carried in his arm.

He stepped out of the storage room to finally feel the light as the storage room was a black hole if one didn\'t carry a lantern along.

Two days pa.s.sed and Lord Alexander who was in Valeria received a package which was intended from his G.o.dfather, a nickname they had used for the head council. Somewhere it was true as the man had taken upon the role to look after the pureblooded vampire lord after his parents had pa.s.sed away.

"Here it is," Lord Alexander handed the files to Penelope which he had received from Rueben, "This all of them," Penny took the files in her hand.

Turning the parchments that had been bound together, she read a few lines before looking up at him to thank him, "Thank you, Lord Alexander."

"No problem."

Going back to the room, Penny took herself to sit on the bed. Turning the pages this time, she started to read what was written there. It spoke about to boys who had drowned in the well but there was no mention about the girl and the boy she had seen in the portrait. If she remembered correctly, Mr. and Mrs. Artemis didn\'t look too old but almost the same in the two pictures.

The files only spoke about the family being of four. Also, didn\'t one of them mention how they had adopted the children then wouldn\'t it have meant they would have been added to the family? Unless the other two children were adopted after the death of the two children.
