Chapter 54

*CAHIR*

"She still hasn't made a move?" I asked about the Silver Moon girl who decided to take up residence in my pack for unknown reasons. If she had ulterior motives, she still hadn't let them show, choosing instead to try befriending my mate.

“She seems like a pretty chill person, if you ask me," Aristo butted in.

"You're fucking her so I'm not asking you," I cut him off, turning to my gamma. "She isn't doing anything suspicious?" My eyes narrowed when she shrugged.

"She's laying low which is what everyone expects from a foreigner like her. So far, all she has done is try to befriend the Luna and reconnect with the new servant, Avalon."© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"I see." What game was Kade playing? Or was he not playing at all?

If he wanted to send a spy, his sister was too obvious so what was she doing here and why did she try to befriend my mate? If I remembered correctly, she was at the top of my hit list - one of the main people who made Sihana's life hell. She and Avalon were teaming up now, weren't they? "Keep an eye on Avalon and that girl. Also, make sure Dorian Greyson knows his daughters have fallen into bad company. Another insult to my mate and I will step in, no matter what either of you says." I stared both the men down, waiting for either of them to object.

The Greysons were one of the richest families in the Alpha Blood pack. The family was one of the founding families of this pack so they had a reserve of generational wealth. If he didn't want to lose everything, he would have to caution his daughters. Even though my Beta and Gamma advised I let the ladies deal with their issues within themselves, I would not condone any bullying, especially any targeted at my mate.

"Are you really going to pick a fight with the Greysons?" My gamma asked, looking from Aristo to me. If this woman wasn't the most efficient gamma in this pack, I would not have made her my Gamma. She was terrified of me and it affected her work.

"You know why the Carsons are here. If the Greysons have found no other people to befriend than the Alpha's enemy, then they are the ones spoiling for a fight," Aristo explained to the gamma. My Beta may be a womanizing whore but we worked well together. It was the only reason I kept him around.

"Ah, alright. I will speak to him," Melanie, my Gamma said.

After the men left, I went back to my work but it was difficult to do when my mind kept straying to the woman in my house. She was miserable. I'd tried my best to make her comfortable in this pack but everything I did seemed to backfire. She was pulling away from me everyday and even Perseus complained that he felt distanced from Asena.

"Ugh, this is why I never wanted a mate!" I slapped a palm against my forehead.

Since she entered this pack - No, since I set my eyes on her, she invaded my life and distracted me. I couldn't string two thoughts together without her crossing my mind. It excited and irritated me at the same time. Work that used to take an hour now took two because thoughts of her invaded my mind at the least expected time! Due to this, I went home later and later every day, working till night to cover up my work.

I got home early that day when I noticed something amiss - My mate's scent.

"Where is Sihana?" I asked the first person that greeted me as I entered the house.

"The Luna has - The Luna -" The girl stuttered, eyes cast to the ground and hunched shoulders shaking. "She went to -" From her blubbering and incomplete sentences, I made out that Sihana was indeed not home but I didn't need anyone to tell me that.

The first scent that invaded my nostrils every time I entered the Alpha Castle was the tantalizing scent of my mate. There were at least fifty workers in this castle but the only scent that greeted me every time was the scent of my mate. That scent alone - it was the reason I had started to think of the Alpha Castle as my home.

"Laura, where is my mate?" The head maid came to greet me as she always did after I came from work.

"Alpha - Ah, I assumed she would be with you. She left with Sebastian a few hours ago and they haven't returned."

'Something is wrong,' Perseus said but he didn't have to tell me. I could already feel my heart clenching and my muscles tensing. The demons whispered in my ears, telling me to do something - lash out. I forced my legs up the stairs and pushed her room door open. It was empty - unsurprisingly – but a pink note sat in the middle of the bed covered in white sheets.

I called my Beta once I read over the note. It was crushed in my hands when he picked up.

"Aristo, book me the next flight to Manz island," I barked into the phone, exiting her room for mine. I dialled her number next but it was unreachable. Next, I opened a mind link with her but I was met with silence. Fuck this, how could she be asleep!? What kind of a joke was she playing!?

The crumpled pink paper in my hands had two simple sentences that made my blood boil. "Will be in Manz Island for three days. Took Sebastian so I'm fine, don't look for me."

“This – This –“ I flung the note against a wall, then I stepped on it.

Rather than waiting for Aristo to book my flight, I powered up my home system and checked all the websites for a flight.

My phone rang and I answered the call in a split second.

"Hey, man -" Aristo started but I cut him off with a bark.

"Sihana left me," I interrupted him. "I need to get her back now."

"She did?" His tone - It sounded as if he was laughing.

"Aristo -" I called my Beta, feeling my wolf snarl for blood.

Sihana was in Manz Island and somehow no one in the Alpha Castle knew that she was gone. For the past three days, Aristo had been hanging out with my mate in my home. Now, said mate was whole different pack. This whole ordeal had Aristo written all over it.

"Aristo." All the tension sipped out of my body. My body relaxed, my tone relaxed, and everything inside me went quiet. Even the birds chirping outside and the dogs barking all went silent. "If anything happens to her will spill your blood on your mother's grave."

"Cahir, calm -"

"Don't tell me to calm down. You know how many people are after her and you did this?" I hissed.

"She's with Sebastian and no one knows -"

“No, never mind if anything happens to her. Even if I find her sipping a margarita happily, I will still end you."

"She was miserable and -“

"She was safe," again, I cut him off.

'He has gone too far,' Perseus said, his anger bristling beneath the surface. 'This is the height of his disrespect.'

"Cahir it's not about being -" His voice started to raise but I growled low in my throat.

"You are my Beta, not my Alpha. She is my mate, not yours. You are in no place to teach me how to treat her By the time I return tomorrow, you better have cleared out your office and found somewhere to hide." I ended the call and booked a flight.

I rushed to the airport and people cleared out of my way as I went. was one of the first people to board the plane and the first to get down from it.

"Welcome Alpha Cahir Armani to -" There was a welcome team waiting for me. How they knew I was coming, goddess only knows.

I'd arrived in Manz Island, now, where the fuck was she? I called Aristo and he picked up on the third ring.

"Hey -

"Where is she?" I demanded.

"She's at - Norman Resort."

"You booked the cheapest place for her?” I hissed but ended the call before he could reply.

Norman resort was a thirty minutes drive from the airport. The closer I got to the resort, the more dread filled me. It was a sure sign that something was wrong.

When I got there, I met her in danger as I feared. My heart leapt to my throat. A reality I never wanted to face unfolded before my eyes. My mate - in danger -

I spoke words I did not hear as blood rushed to my head and the demons I always tried to hold at bay rushed to take over me. My control slipped, my gaze darkened and the bloodlust took over me.
