Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 196
Mr. Robyn’s heart thumped rapidly within him and he cracked his brain, recalling that Alex had no long or sharp nails, the same was for Leia. “Doc, are you sure about what you’re saying?”
“I am sure of what I am saying! I have never seen anything like this before!” The doctor’s eyes flickered in deep skepticism, and he turned to Amanda. “Please, can I see the other victims?”
“Um, they’re all dead.” Amanda shook her head with a bit of displeasure on her face.
“Can I see their body?” He inquired, and Amanda slowly nodded at him with a bit of suspicion in her eyes.
She turned around and motioned for him to follow her as she led him to a private room where all the bodies were neatly laid down by the bodyguards. “We were planning on having them buried as soon as possible.” She explained as she shut the door behind them after Mr. Robyn stepped in.
The doctor nodded and walked towards the corpse. He wore his mask and then squatted down to examine the corpse.
Each of the corpses had their throats ripped apart, and it was exactly done by the same claws that injured Mr. Robyn’s face. No… no no, they were different. The claw marks on some of the bodyguards’ necks were thinner, letting him know that the person must have had slender nails, while the other three bodyguards’ ripped necks were quite big, letting him know that the claws of the last person weren’t thin at all and definitely was a man.
“Impossible…” The doctor exclaimed, as he suddenly remembered the things he saw in one of the old mythology books he usually read. Could they be real? He shook his head in a bit of skepticism as he took pictures of the corpse and turned to stare at Mr. Robyn. “Please, may I know who they were? The ones that inflicted those wounds on you and killed all these men.”
Mr. Robin’s eyes blinked a bit in confusion, and he shifted his gaze to the corpses. “There were two of them. The girl is the wife of the richest man in the world, Mr. Adrik Avalanzo, and the other man with blonde hair, I presumed must be her personal guard, from the way he tried to protect her.”
“Wait…what!! Mr. Avalanzo!! You tried to… Nevermind.” The doctor’s eyes fluttered in disbelief, and he stood up straight. “Please let’s head to the living room, so I can treat you.”
Me. Robyn nodded, and they strolled out of the room to the living room.
Mr. Robyn took his seat on a modern wooden chair, and the doctor proceeded to attend to him.
It took a while before he was done with treating Mr. Robyn and used a bandage to wrap up his wound. “Do take care of your wound, or you can visit the hospital so I can dress it up by myself.” He smiled as he proceeded to pack up his tools. Mr. Robyn nodded at him with a smile on his lips, and he grabbed his kit, then bade them a farewell before proceeding to leave the mansion.
He boarded his Camry car and adjusted his glasses that were about to slip from the bridge of his nose. He started the car’s engine, then slowly drove out of the compound and pulled over onto the road to speed off.
……
“He is so weird!” Amanda scoffed and moved to plop down on the sofa.
A deep breath escaped from Mr. Robyn’s nose and the mysterious words of the doctor couldn’t stop echoing in his mind. Honestly, he was finding some sense in what the doctor was saying because it was absolutely weird.
At that moment, when he felt a deep pain in his eye and right side of his face, it felt completely like a fingernail piercing into his skin, and anyone who saw it would definitely know that it was an injury from fingernails or claws like the doctor said. What he has yet to understand is how it is possible. He had never seen a human with such long and sharp nails that could infiltrate this deeply into someone’s skin.
He pinched between his brows and raised his hand to caress his right eyes that were aching from the inside.
“Uncle!! Are you even hearing what I’m saying? ” Amanda questioned, with deep irritation evident on her face. She had been speaking here for a few seconds now and her uncle never responded.
“Uh…” Mr. Robyn’s eyes flickered, and he shook his head.
“What are you thinking? Don’t tell me you’re taking that weirdo’s word to be meaningful. ” Amanda clicked her tongue with an irritated look on her face, and without bothering to reply to her, Mr. Robyn stood up from the couch and proceeded towards the stairs to make his way up to the room he was staying in.
Amanda stared at his disappearing back and scoffed in her heart.

The doctor, whose name was Mr. David, arrived at his home instead of the hospital and parked his car in the garage of his house.
His house was just a moderate white bungalow that looked accommodating and very comforting. It was just a normal, affordable, perfect family house in which he lived with his little daughter, Emily, who was just seven years old.
He had divorced his wife as things didn’t work out between them, and worse, she left little Emily to him to take care of, then traveled overseas with another rich guy which she hooked up. So it had been his job since then to take care of little Emily till she had grown up to this stage.
A low breath left his nose, and he grabbed his suitcase from the car, shut the door, and locked it.
He walked to the entrance and pushed open the door, stepping into his home. The sound of the TV playing filled his ears, and then he heard tiny footsteps.
“Daddy!” A seven-year-old girl with light brownish curly hair, just like him, ran up to him and he scooped her up into his arms, hugging her tightly.
“I missed you…” She pouted in such a cute voice that could melt the heart, and Mr. David planted soft kisses on her forehead.
“Hi, Mr. David..” A young lady with black curly hair and brown skin emerged with a wide smile on her face.
