The Alpha's Kidnapped Mate

Six

Lysander

Its been at least six hours since we left the compound and still no progress. I dont get how these rogue wolves would have invaded us. We had gotten word that some children were killed in the forest. And we had decided to go on a raid the next day, early in the morning. Ofcourse the bodies had been found by humans. Police reports had stated that the children were killed by some kind of animals. My contact in the department had immediately called me to tell me the news because he also recognized the claw marks. One of my kind. The rogue ones to be exact. I had assembled my men and told them we were to leave the pack at three in the morning. We would camp into the woods and wait for the rogues to attack or prey some poor humans. The last thing i needed was humans giving more unnecessary attention on these murders. They would ask questions. And eventually they would find out that they were surrounded by many supernatural beings. Can you imagine the ruckus. Some would try to make money with our kind. And some would hunt us just for the fun of it. A war would break out because all supernatural beings had a dark side that would be not easy to suppress if it comes out. So my men and i we were to eliminate the rogues. Being a rogue basically meant these werewolves didn't have a pack. They didn't follow rules. They enjoyed killing. Dont get me wrong, all predators like killing but the rogues dont know how to stop. And thats how six hours has passed with us staying in the shadows waiting them out. But still no show. And im getting this urgency in me, that is telling me to go back home. What is this? I have never felt this kind of urgency to get back to the pack before. Probably because i didn't have a mate before. And now that my fiery little mate is there, all my focus is there. And here she is plotting to escape. Not that she will succeed. I know my little mate is probably thinking of another prank. I cant wait to see what she does next. Even thou it would probably make me mad. But its okay. I will get my fill when i get to f**k her senseless. My c**k throbs when i think about sliding into her wet cunt.

"This is useless." Luke grumbles.

"I think you just want to go back to the fiery blondes you were with last night. Did we interrupt your f**k fest brother?" Coal smirks. Luke and Coal were twins. And they were also my betas.

"Yeah you did." Luke frowns. "When you knocked on my door, i was about to go down on one of the blondes." A few groans are heard. It was no news that Luke was not shy about his s*x activities. He will lay it all out without even blinking. I remember last summer the pack had held a party. When it got late, children and new mothers had retired. But young men and women had remained claiming the night was still young. And Luke being Luke had started talking to Coal about a three some he once had. How he had wished he had two c***s because one had not been enough. Bragged on about how he wanted the night to not end because he had been surrounded by boobs. All the youngsters had stopped what they were doing and paid attention to his story. The girls had blushed furiously. And the young men had began to adjust their crotches. I had to growl in warning at the youngsters to make them retire too. My men and i had laughed. Remembering well how it felt to be young. How hard it was to control your libido.

"My apologies brother. I will make it up to you somehow." Coal said. His phones chimes, alerting an incoming message. Coal looks down on his phone, frowning. A second later the frown is replaced by fury.

"Alpha we need to go back to the compound immediately." Coal said.

"Why? What has happened?" I asked.

"Did you not bring your phone.?"

"No i didn't. I left it in my room charging. Forgot to charge the bloody thing last night." I grumbled. "What happened Coal?"

"Its the Luna." Coal replies. "She was taken."

"What?" I bellowed. "What do you mean she was taken? By who? No one would dare step in into my pack without permission."

"Im not sure about the culprit. But the text i received from Chico only said to tell you to return home immediately because the Luna was missing. And she thinks someone took her."

"Luke and Coal you are with me. The rest of you follow us back in the trucks." I state my orders and then shift into my beast form. I took off heading for the pack. Luke and Coal a few feet behind me.

In ten minutes i was at the compound. Some of my people were lurking around and whispering. I caught a few scents in the air. Fear being one of them. Because if someone had taken Veronica. It meant we had a traitor in the midst. Not to mention that it might be the elders. I didn't want them near my pack. The other scent was courage and determination. Courage that they will fight for their home if indeed it has been invaded by the enemies. I head straight for the mens changing room and took my human form. I couldn't have done that outside because i would have been naked. My clothes had been shredded the minute i shifted. I hope Veronica is okay. Could my little hellion have runaway. I couldn't put it past her. She was very capable of finding a way to escape from me. I dread the day she succeed but i had the feeling the day was not here yet. Besides, even if it were, I would hunt for her and bring her back to me. She was, after all mine. I change quickly and head back outside. My men have all arrived and assembled everyone accordingly. Luke and Coal were still in their wolf forms. They didn't bother shifting back because they knew that after i address the pack i was going to head out to look for Veronica. When i stand in front of the pack, everyone goes quiet. Thats good too because i was angry.

"Where is my mate?" I growl. My men shudder. Women and children whimper in fear. They know when i use my Alpha tone i mean business and heads roll if i do not get what i want. And what i wanted right now was my mate.

"I want answers now!" I bellow. Causing a few children to hide behind their mothers skirts. And no one would make eye contact with me. No one would dare when my wolf was so close to the surface. "You all were here. One of you must have seen something."

"Maybe she runaway." A male voice says. And everyone gasps, looking at the direction were the voice came from. They weren't gasping because of what he said. But more so of how he would dare to try and push my buttons when i was furious. I recognized the voice thou. It belongs to Voe. The bane of my existence. I had rescued him from rogue wolves a decade ago but i had regretted it since. He chased after girls even after they tell him no, he still continued to pursue them. Living unwanted gifts. And he knew i wouldn't do anything about it because he hadn't physically done harm to them. Other than annoy them. One of the girls had actually came to me and cried her eyes out because she thought Voe was going to annoy her to death. And she didn't want to die like that. I shared her sentiments because Voe annoyed me too but i had offered him a pack and couldn't just throw him out like that especially if he hadn't broken the rules. I had eventually set another rule. Saying that a male was allowed to ask a woman out, twice. And if she shows disinterest whatsoever, the man was to leave her alone and try again after five years if he is still interested. Failure to follow that rule or if the woman comes to me to complain, the male was to be banished. That had stopped Voe. But he still had managed to find a way to do little things that annoyed at least half of the pack. And him daring to speak like that about my mate today was his mistake.

"Could you repeat that?" I asked him calmly.

"I said maybe she runaway." He says. I think its official this guy is just plain stupid. Even a few of my men raised their brows at him for daring to answer me twice. Couldn't he tell he was walking on thin ice. "Or maybe she seduced one of the men here to let her escape. She is a hottie." Just like that i had him in an iron grip by the neck. My super speed making it seem like i was a few feet away from him and suddenly im less than an arms length in a blink. And he clawed at my hand pleading with his eyes to let him go. I could scent his fear. He was finally grasping how serious the situation was.

"No one gets to speak about my mate like that." I growl. "Pack your things right now and leave this pack. You are banished. If i find you lurking anywhere around here i will kill you." I tightened the grip on his neck to emphasize my point and then threw him a few feet away from me. He grunts in pain and coughs for a few seconds and then bolts towards his house. After a few minutes he comes out with a bag. And heads towards the border. I nod to Luke. Silently telling him to follow him. To make sure he really leaves.

"Anyone else feel like sharing their opinion?" I asked.

"Al....Alpha i think i can show you were i think she was last. Then maybe you can pick up her scent and follow it." Chico said with a fear filled voice. "Please hurry Alpha. I think she might be in danger."

"Why do you say that? What do you know?" I enquire.

"I just sense it Alpha." She replies. At seeing my confusion and men's. She sighs. "My great great grandmother was a shaman. I never actually met her. But the gift runs in our bloodline. Thou i dont see things like she did. I more like sense them. Sort of like a hunch. And my hunch is never wrong." She explains. And i think i heard about the stories of her bloodline. The Meridan bloodline was full of powerful shamans. Thou many were killed and hunted, i never actually knew them personally. And around that time, my pack was full of men.

"Are you sure your instincts are never wrong?"

"Never Alpha. I will stake my life on it." She said. Earning a few gasps of fear from everyone. Because they knew if by any chance she is wrong i would not hesitate to take her life.

"Very well. Lead the way." I say. Chico and my men all follow her and she led us just outside of the kitchen. Were a few items were scattered on the ground. Looks like she was ambushed when she was getting out of the kitchen. My men and i exchange looks because this meant there was a traitor in my pack. First things first thou. Sniffing around i easily pick up her scent and follow it along the corridor and through the back door. A few pack members knew about this door. We go out the door and straight into the woods. Her scent is now faint. But i dont give up. I follow it and something white caught on a tree gets my attention. I pluck it from the tree and there is only four words written on it. "SHE IS NOW MINE." signed N. I would know that N from anywhere. My fury finally consumes me and i growl so loud that trees shook and the forest became eerily quiet. Acknowledging a predator. I abandon my skin and took off. I needed to run and let my anger out. And then i will go after my mate. Because no one not even him was going to keep her away from me.
