Chapter 28: Chapter Twenty-Eight
**Jaxson**
After I drop Alexandria at her home for the night, I make my way back to the pack house for bed, with all the time that Alexandria and I have spent together I’m beginning to become attuned to her feelings and emotions already, and that is a wonderful feeling, it’s like I can feel her beginnings to fall in love with me already, I can feel when she is nervous or excited, and I’m sure she can feel the same way with me as well.
I make my way upstairs to my room in the pack house, and once I am showered and changed into my jogging shorts for bed, this feeling of exhaustion tinged with fear and nervousness comes over me and when I think about myself having anything to be nervous or fearful over, I can’t come up with anything. Then I quickly realize these emotions are not coming from me. They must be coming from Alexandria, when I think about the night at the ball when James commented how she will be his again and how he regretted rejecting her I have come to realize something terrible has happened and I need to get to her right away.
I quickly throw on some jeans, a black t-shirt, and my boots and make my way out to my truck to head back to Alexandria’s home to check on her. When I make it back to her house, I run up to the door and knock on the door loud enough to wake her parents and when they open the door, I quickly greet them.
“Good evening Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, I need to see Alex, it’s of great importance.”
Her mother is quick to respond when she sees the worry on my face.
“Of course, Alpha, it’s up the stairs...”
I don’t give her a chance to finish before I quickly sidestep them to get to Alexandria’s room, I don’t need them to tell me where it is, I can easily find it by her scent.
When I make it to her room, I throw the door open and when I look around I find that she is nowhere to be seen, I start to look under her bed, in her bathroom, her closet, anywhere I can think to look that she will fit, and I can’t seem to find her anywhere and when I look to her window I see it is open and when I walk to the window I can smell her scent but it very faint, along with another. The Very faint smell of a wolf, but I can’t place the smell. It could be from a rogue since it doesn’t smell like anything from a pack member.
I think whoever took her tried to cover their scent.
When her parents make it to her room behind me, her father has a look of worry all over his face.
“Alpha, please tell me what you have so worried about my Alex, I can see that she isn’t here, and her scent is very faint so please tell me what is going on?”
I don’t want to tell them what has been going on, but I feel like I may have too because now it has become a matter of Alexandria’s safety.
“Your right Mr. Wilson, something is going on, but right now I need to find Alexandria and I am going to need your help, I am going to need you to go talk to the Alpha and find out where James is along with that little girlfriend of his Jackie or whatever her name is. I am going to make a run around the pack lands and try to sniff her out and see if I can find her. I need you to get James and his little girlfriend and hold them in the Alpha’s office until I return, I have reason to believe they may be responsible for her disappearance, I will fill you in when I return.”
I make my way out to the front yard and make my way towards the forest while her parents make their way to the pack house to talk to the Alpha.
When I reach the tree line of the forest, I quickly strip off my clothes and hide them in a bush nearby and shift into my wolf and take off in a sprint with my nose in the air. I mind link John and tell him to bring Annie to help me look for Alexandria.
I give him a quick run-down of all that happened at the ball with James and Jackie. The next thing I know I catch her scent near the pack border, and I have a desperate need to keep following her scent, but I know if there is neighboring pack nearby, there could be a chance, they are not a friendly pack, and if the rare chance they are not an ally to this pack then I could end up in a heap of trouble, I have no choice but to turn around head to the pack house to make a plan to find my mate.
On my way back I run across John and Annie in their wolf form, and we make our way towards the Pack house, I stop on the way to grab my clothes I stashed in a tree at the edge of the forest line.
When we make it back the pack house, we head straight to the Alpha’s office to come up with a plan to find Alex, I am already having a hard time controlling my wolf and I can already feel the loss of my mate, I need to find her before I totally lose it.
If I don’t find her, I could end up losing my mind and going rogue then end up killing myself. Alpha wolves take it the hardest when they lose their mate. All wolves end up losing their minds if they lose their mate, but with an Alpha wolf its much worse and much quicker. I need to find her. I can’t lose her, especially when I just found her.
While we are in the Alpha’s office waiting for James and Jackie to come, I am trying to keep my cool, but I end up yelling at the Alpha about how he knew all along how Alex was bullied and how she was mistreated all these years by his son and how he isn’t a proper Alpha because he just let it slide all these years.
Then there is a brief hush in the room and then I hear James and Jackie outside the door and when it opens to reveal Jackie being manhandled by a warrior and James trying go all Alpha on said warrior about the treatment of Jackie, I lose my cool.
“ENOUGH!”
