Her Stepping Stones

Celebrations And Revelations

Dom P.O.V

I can't believe she offered me that position. I have huge respect for Aaron, but I also don't want a random Alpha coming in here and running things. I accepted. If he doesn't come back in three months, I will be new Alpha and Lina's chosen mate. If he ever finds out, he will kill me.

Lina P.O.V

Dom agreed after some talking into. I proceeded to Maya and Lucas, who were happy for me. "You will be great and other than my son, I can't think of anyone else who could have this spot," Lucas beamed. 'Thank you.' We were chatting, and Rosa came up to us. That's a big step considering everything. "Congratulations," she said, staring at the floor. "You know Rosa, "...I began. " I will need an assistant. Would you like the position?" Her smile widened immediately. "Ofcourse", she squealed. " See you Monday," I said, waving her off. Triss was next. He hugged me and whispered a thank you. I was feeling nice and light when an alarm set off. "BREACH IN THE BORDER," a warrior screamed. I immediately shifted and ran towards the intruder. He was still in human form, so I stood barring my teeth. "Please, I mean no harm. I have Information on Aaron, "he pleaded. I shifted back immediately. "What is it?". He hesitates, looking around. " I am Alpha here. So what is it?" He shakes. "He's on his way to Egypt to talk with the Forbidden Shadow Pack."I narrow my eyes at him. "I was in charge of doing surveillance, and Han asked me to notify family if he left. My Alpha believes he's gonna get in trouble." I walk away mind linking my warriors to set him up in a room for the night. I head up to my room and shower, and Rosa comes to help. " I said Monday." She shrugs. "I know, but you need it now, and also I know a thing or two about infiltration and spying," she smiles. I step out and grab the towel. "Bring me a drink, and let's get started on bringing our Alpha home.

Aaron P.O.V

I arrived in Egypt, and surprise, they are holed up in one of the major cities. Cairo is pretty, but it holds monsters. I look to find a poster being held up with my name. I approached slowly. 'How did....before I can finish, I'm hit in the side of the head and wolves bain being thrown on my face. I grab my face, turning to run, but come up fruitless when I look up and a rag is being placed on my face with chloroform. Everything gets dark after that.

Sheila P.O.V

I'm getting ready to head up and help Lina with some pack paperwork while she figures out Aaron's situation when I get a call. "Hello." At first, there's no one on the line. "Sheila...Aaron got taken by ......pack. I'm not sure.... he's doing. Help. " That's all I hear before the line goes dead. I race to Lina's office. "I think Aaron was taken." Lina looks at my phone that I've held up in the air. We immediately call Triss. He tracks all phones within the pack. "I'll have it tomorrow Alpha", he finishes hanging up. "Are you sure it was Han?" I nod my head. "I'm positive. I'm worried he's with them too. He ended things with his pack and agreed to carefully follow Aaron for a while because I was worried about you. "I finish in tears. She hugs me tight. "Don't worry... we will figure this out."

Han P.O.V

I made it into Cairo just in time. I could barely smell his scent, but I could figure out where he ended up. I followed it to the outskirts where I found some buildings that were blacked out. They clearly don't want to be found. I called Sheila an hour ago, but service is bad out here. Obviously, it works in their favor. I stick to the side lines, ready to perform a stake out. I call my good buddy who discreetly brings me clothes and an entire cooler to last for the day. He will bring me more twenty hours from now. I asked him if he could call Sheila's number and tell her I'm okay. He said he would try, but cell service sucks here.
