Alexander:

“So, who the fuck did you think you were to abuse my woman?” I asked, glaring at the landlord whose eyes were wide in fear as he pissed his pants “and not only that, you actually thought that you would get away with it?”

The bastard tried to follow her; however, thankful for the fact that she didn’t catch my scent, I stopped the man before he could move a step toward her. I held him to the wall that he had her pinned against while Mason, one of my men, went to follow her to ensure that nothing happened to her.

“Do you think that anyone would notice you dying right now? Should I choose to throw your body where no one could find it, or even worse, have a bunch of dogs eat your flesh, do you really believe that anyone would care?” I asked, baring my canines as I glared at the man whose heart raced as his hands shook, processing what I was saying.

“Please don’t” he begged, shaking his head at me, his hands shaking as he tried putting it on my wrist to stop me from choking him. I raised an amused eyebrow, but waited for whatever explanation or excuse he wanted to give. I knew that he had none, and even if he did, nothing would redeem the fact that he was trying to take advantage of MY woman.

“But I am very tempted to do so” I said, shrugging my shoulders. He shook his head again, and banging his head against the wall behind him, I watched as he slid down the wall, sitting on the floor as he held it. I knew that the slam wasn’t hard enough to kill or hurt him, much; however, I also knew that it was going to be teaching him a lesson about touching another woman against her will.

I got on my knee in front of him, watching as he tried backing away to run from me, making me chuckle before I gripped him by his chin, my fingers digging on his skin, making him whimper in both pain and fear. His eyes were fixed on mine for a second, and shaking his head, I could tell that he wanted me to stop.

“If I ever see you a hundred feet close to my woman, you are going to be dead, and I don’t care if she enters this building. You get the fuck out and leave while she stays, do you understand me?” I asked, glaring at the man.

“Y-Yes, sir” he said and I nodded before letting him go and getting up. I walked out of the building, catching sight of Carter who was waiting for me across the street with his phone in his ear as he probably spoke to Mason.

“Mason is asking whether to approach her or not? She fell asleep in front of a tree…”

“No, if she wishes to stay alone, then she can. She would eventually stop being stubborn when she sees that she has no money, a roof over her head, and is away from her daughter. The Scarlett that I knew is not as cold hearted as to be able to simply let go of her baby; therefore, I believe that she should back by midnight, if not, tomorrow morning”

“What the f*ck do you mean by you lost her?” I asked, glaring at Mason as he entered my house with shaky hands. He looked down at the ground, avoiding my eyes as he waited for me to gut him alive.

“She just left. I don’t know what or how it did, but one minute she entered the bathroom, it was a public one, and the next, she was just gone Hell, I even entered the bathroom to check on where she might have gone, but her clothes were thrown in the trash, and she was suddenly nowhere to be seen” Mason said, and I frowned, cursing under my breath. The woman realized that she was being followed. Hell, of course, she would. Catching Mason’s scent was only a matter of time; however, I didn’t expect her to catch it as easily. But then again, I didn’t expect her to stay away from the house for that long either.

Anastasia, who was inside the room, cried, her cries tearing through the walls of the house as she searched for her mom. She has been refusing all bottled milk, and I even tried to get her one of the other pack’s mothers. The woman just gave birth, and tried to breastfeed her; however, my beloved daughter was being as stubborn as her mother was. I already knew that she was going to be as hard as Scarlett was, but then again, Scarlett was never known to he stubborn, not unless annoyed or angered.

“Have you tried tracing her phone…?”

Mason pulled out her phone, and I let out a low growl of annoyance She couldn’t have thought of everything so easily, could she? I didn’t even know where she would he staying The woman has been spending the night in different areas every day for a week now, therefore, I didn’t know where she was going to be staying this time, whether anyone would be hurting her, or whether or not she had anything to even eat or drink.

I ran my fingers through my hair as I tried to think straight, one hint, just one on where she might be going would be enough. It would help lead me to her, but I knew at this point, if she didn’t want to be found, she wouldn’t be.

She was doing this on purpose, and I knew that it was to prove a point to me. Fucking hell, was she doing a good job at it. Anastasia hasn’t been resting for days now, and despite her young age, seeing as her mom wasn’t around, she was starting to deprive herself of food.

“Send a search party to find her, I don’t care what you have to do, I want her back in the house before tonight” I said, taking a step back to enter my daughter’s room. I stood against the door frame, watching as the nurses tried calming her down a bit. Her heart raced, and her cries grew louder, making my chest ache. Mom sat on the edge of the bed, watching her with pain in her eyes. She looked at me, and sitting beside her, I wrapped my arm around her shoulder as I pulled her to my chest.

“What are we going to do, Alex? The little girl is going to end up losing her life if this proceeds” mom asked, looking at Anastasia whose sobs grew louder as if in pain.

“We’re going to find her mom, one way or the other, I will bring Scarlett back” I said, kissing her temple.

“What happened that drove her to leave?” She asked, not caring that there were nurses in the room. I looked down at my lap, avoiding her eyes for a second before sighing and getting up. I couldn’t even tell her that it was ME and my attitude that drove her to choosing this. I have pressured her so much that she was more than willing to live on the street, working for an hour’s pay cleaning dishes, or washing toilets to get something to eat, before she hit the road again, instead of coming home to the pack.

“Alexander, a mother would not just leave her baby” mom said again, insisting on the topic. I knew that for fact, and especially not one like Scarlett, someone who truly did fight to keep her daughter alive inside her even in the worst of conditions.

“I will be in my office if you need anything, mom” I said, not bothering to answer her “the men are searching, and I’ll try my best to find her from my side. Rest assured that I wouldn’t allow my daughter to get hurt if it cost my life for it”

I walked out of the room before she could say a word, and looking down at my feet, I leaned against the wall for a second and I took a deep breath My daughter’s cries broke my heart with each passing second.

I pulled my phone out of my pocket, knowing that the fastest way to get things done sometimes was to ask for help, and despite riot usually liking that as a method, I knew that it was the best option.

I walked toward my office as I dialed the man’s number He answered the phone two minutes later, his voice all too familiar, content, arid calm, as he always was.

“To what do I owe the honor, Alpha Alexander?” He asked, not bothering to sugarcoat things, knowing that if I was calling, then it was for business to be taken care of.

“My mate has gone missing, and I need your help, Volkov”
