Lorenzo's Pov
If craziness and desperation were to be presented as an award of the week, then I would have been the first person to claim such a prize.
The past few days were hell for me and I wasn't ashamed to express how I felt towards Mia's disappearance.
The thought of her being dead irks me to the core and I know how much of a mess I had done at Green Oak during the festival.
The whole pack went Into a frenzy searching for Mia, I was told she was that maid that collapsed when I had walked in and I almost ran mad with regret and fury.
Right now, I was told of where she was and in a hideout with that same witch which I had once approached and she denied ever seeing Mia.
Goddess knows I will tear her limb to limb for lying to me especially if I can't find Mia.
"We got her Alpha, the men are with her right now." Devon's mind linked with me and I dropped everything I was doing and directed my gaze and location toward where they were, my heart racing with anticipation.
My hands itched to touch her and my voice was ready to tell her how much of an asshole I had been.
Goddess! I hope she's okay, I hope she's eaten anything for the safety of our pup.
All these thoughts swirled into my head as I headed toward where my men were and I saw the old lady being pinned forcefully by two men.
I ignored them and asked around for Mia, if she was here or was It that her scent was stamped on my nose that I could do nothing about it?
"Where's she?" I growled in irritation after looking around to discover that she wasn't anywhere around here and I could see the hesitation and fear in their eyes which had my wolf whining in displeasure.
"I'm sorry Alpha, she seemed to have rum and disappeared into thin air."
"HOW DID YOU LET THAT HAPPEN?!!" I yelled at them and they dropped to their knees.
"I'm sorry Alpha, we would do anything to atone for our incompetence but we believe that Mia wasn't in her right senses when she ran and we could even catch a whimp of her scent to follow her which made it so difficult." They explained sincerely, making a difficult and painful rumble erupt from my chest that my whole body trembled in hot fury.
I walked towards the woman whose expression was bold as if she didn't care about my presence and would do more to piss me off.
"You lied to me." I choked on my words and true to maintain a strict composure less I strangled her neck before I could extort any information from her.
"So let's do this dance again quietly and we'll be good. Where is Mia?" I growled and she chuckled at me, making my eyes blaze more in fury.
"You don't scare me Alpha Lorenzo and I won't tell you where that poor girl is," She replied defiantly and I smirked.
"You think I have all the time in the world to scare anyone, you think I give a f**k about who is scared and who is bold? I would rather be scared of what I would do to such a person rather than the bullshit you just spewed so to save ourselves the harassment and torture, so f*****g speak!"
"Well, I have no business with your maid. She left on her own accord and pleaded with me to help her, you need to find her yourself and-"
"Burn her to ashes at the Pack and make sure her bones are hanging in the sun!" I cut her off and told my men who bowed and blood drained from her face instantly.
"I'll look for Mia, she couldn't have gone far."
"Why not seek the assistance of a witch Alpha, they might use their crystal ball to locate wherever she might be," Devon suggested and I stared at him.
As much as that sounded so tempting, I wouldn't compromise my standards by having anything to do with the witches.
It was against the law.
"You know that's forbidden right?" I asked him and he bit his lips bowing down at me.
"I'll check the next pack after here and if we don't see her, we move to the next pack.
I could have done this instead of checking her around the woods." I told him and turned to leave when I heard her shrill voice of deep fear.
"Please..p..pl.. please, I will tell you where Mia went, just spare my life please!" She stuttered with her words and I turned my full attention towards her.
"Start talking!" I ordered and she swallowed as her eyes darted around but me. She looked terrified all of a sudden that the brave demeanour she had expressed was gone as if it never existed.
"I sold her to the Alpha of Blue Stone Pack." She started and my eyes darkened with shock.
"What?" I couldn't help but gasp out.
"How did you know him? No, where is she right now?"
"I masked her scent and hypnotised her with my powers that even if she didn't know Blue Stone Pack, my powers would influence her to reach there safely." She quivered in fear as she said every word and my grip on the hem of my shirt tightened in great Fury.
"I believe she would be there or might not even reach there yet, so please spare my life and I'll help you bring her back safely "
She pleaded, her iris dilated with fear but she just activated the beast mode in me.
Blue Stone Pack was a pack for the Lycans! The Alpha was ruthless as f**k and a blood-sucking demon. Why the hell did she send her there if all places where the guards alone might rip her throat for trying to trespass?
"Mia is not a commodity to be bought, why the f**k did you sell her to him?" I roared and she flinched.
"I'm sorry, he needed a Luna and–"
Oh goodness! She was even sold as a bride.
I turned to my men with renewed vigour and fury.
"If you do not burn this woman to ashes by the time I come back, you will take her place!" I sat out in fury and turned my back to run.
