Chapter 39
BLAKE'S POV
I was busy the whole day tightening the security and discussing pack protocols when Rock came rus.h.i.+ng towards me. 'Alpha, We have found a lead' he said taking me towards the dungeon around 6:00 am. There was a man chained, his clothes half torn, ruffled hair and eyes that knew pain. He was escaping from someone, from whom and why was the question.
I sat on a metallic chair with only a thin gla.s.s wall separating us. We dint know what he was capable of since he had yet to tell us the reason he sought refuge in our territory.
' What's your name' I asked looking into his eyes, while he broke our eye contact. He was shriveled up, his skin and bones were already surfing up. He must have been starved for at least a year to be in this condition. This also means he might be knowing all the confidential things behind the kidnappings or he might be pretending.
Rock was to my right and a senior pack member to my left. Rock began asking questions while all the time he stared into blank s.p.a.ce. It was as though he didn't want to recall what had happened. I knew this investigation wouldn't go any further with the way things were proceeding.
Max was quiet and calm the whole time Rock asked questions. ' Give him some food until he can speak' I said to the senior pack member while leaving the room.
What was I supposed to do, although I had many questions about Redd.i.c.k, and how he was related, there are only a few who know about these kidnappings. I wanted to solve this quickly. It is an issue going on for many years.
I went back to my office stressed that nothing was going according to plan. I sat on the chair while gazing outside the window. ' What do you think our mate is doing' Max asked…' well I guess she will be resting or eating food, enjoying' I said imagining her smile whenever she eats something sweet. How I wish I could go to her and hug her right now, to slump on her shoulder while she brushes my head whispering ��� everything's going to be alright' in her sweet angelic voice.
Well, she was all I could ask for. But now, I had given her a week off, thinking about how I wouldn't
Just then an alarm went off, I mind linked Rock and the other pack members who were patrolling the areas and got to know that a crazy girl was climbing over the window to see me.
I mean I too have heard many girls seducing there way into my house, or knocking people down just to get a glance at me. But this girl, I had already made it clear in the pack meeting and to all the women who came after me that I would only love my mate, but some still crossed the line and when they did I would send them to other packs.
I would rarely see women who are caught, I mean what is there to talk about when you can't be with them, it is better to make them lose hope and find their true love, but these women never understand that and always crave for beauty and power, unlike my cute little mate who is innocent as a flower unknown to the harsh reality we have to face.
Rock came to my office.
' Alpha we have a report about the women' he said in a stern voice like always. I nodded my head for him to continue.
'It seems that the girl pa.s.sed through the guards and climbed the window through the tree' he said with a surprised tone. I guess he couldn't comprehend what he was reporting.
' So what does she want?' I asked least interested in even hearing the response.
' She claims that she knows you' he said ' Leon just mind linked me'
'tell her I'm on a business trip and what are the patrollers doing instead of guarding the gates properly, how could they not notice someone pa.s.sing by, a mere girl could climb over the compound wall and into my house window, this is why people are getting kidnapped. Call them for a meeting at the end of the day' I said to Rock frustrated.
'Alpha, she is human' rock said and as those words left his mouth My body was already moving towards the dungeon. How could I not realize, what if she was locked up? How would I face her?
' You should have told me earlier' I said slamming the door behind and speeding my way to the dungeon. ' You're an Idiot I tell you, Idiot' Max said, ' that isn't helping the situation' I spoke back.
As I opened the dungeon door, her smell was immersing me, honey-sweet smell, how could I ever forget that, and to be locked up in such a place where evil people were kept is just cruel, how could these fools not recognize their Luna, I have to teach them a lesson I thought to myself.
My hands trembled to open the door because I was not ready to face the situation, to face her but my raw instincts took over and within no time the door opened.
I looked at her in hesitation of what she would think of me, in anger that I let it happen and worst of them all was helplessness as I saw her tear stricken face. She suddenly closed her eyes and looked away.
'Why, does she hate us now?' max asked, he was whimpering at the back of my head as he saw our mate chained. She was shaking, her hands tied, covered in black, leaving only her eyes. Why did she turn away? was what even I wanted to know.
As I moved closer, her grip against the chains tieing her down tightened. I broke them apart with my hands, while Leon handed over the keys. Her eyes remained shut the whole time I unlocked.
' Allen ' I said in a low voice comforting her but she wouldn't open them. 'Allen' I called out to her again but she closed the tighter So I CARRIED HER in princess style till my room and shut the door behind us while my mom and Callen had their mouths open gaping at us.
