Chapter 110 Her Friends (II)
Calhoun's POV
She's still dancing until I put my hand on her shoulder to stop her, and then she jumps on me, hooking her legs around my waist.
Not again. I inwardly facepalm.
I should be staying as far away from females as possible.
First was Emilia and now Sarafina. Kristen's best friend.
"Hello, handsome," she slurs and I hurriedly pull her away from me.
It takes a few minutes for me to drag her to a corner of the club so I can talk to her because of the blaring music.
"Where are you taking me?" Sapphire inquires.
"I need to talk to you," I tell her after sighing. "Who are you?" She frowns when she asks.
And the gasps when I take my hood off.
"Oh my god, Alpha Calhoun," she exclaims with her hands in her mouth.
She's not so drunk after all.
"Have you seen Kristen?" I let out the question that had been on my chest.
"No," Sapphire shakes her head before tapping on her chin thoughtfully, "it's been a week already."
I sigh in distress at this, because it seems like I'm not getting anywhere.
Kristen is completely out of my reach. And I don't know where else to go after meeting with her two best friends.
"What happened, you two fought?" Sapphire raises a questioning brow at me.
And I choose to not respond to this by clenching my jaw.
"Where else can she be?" I inquire.
"I don't really know Alpha Calhoun, if she's not at Maddy's," Sapphire looks a bit unsure of herself.
"I went over to her place before coming here," I literally grit out.
"Oh, shit," Sapphire curses.
I curl my fingers into tight hard fists and clench them... It's taking everything in me to not smash things up by letting out all my exasperation. But I'm withholding it.
I need to find Kristen.
She's pregnant, she shouldn't be all alone by herself.
Kristen needs all the protection and care in the world.
It would have been better if she had remain at her school apartment and completely restricted me from visiting her. At least, I would know she was there even though it would have unsettled me.
I can't function anymore if I don't see her. I don't even mind if she hates me and won't listen to anything I try to tell her. I just need to see her, to know she's okay. And then I'll be at ease.
Upon knowing she's out there somewhere and I have no idea of the exact place, has left me restless.
"Again, I apologize for what I did earlier, I didn't know it was you," Sapphire disrupts me from my thoughts.
"It's quite dangerous for a girl to be alone, drunk, and in the midst of men. They could take advantage of you." I say. I am not as uncomfortable as I was with Maddy because this one wasn't caught with naked men.
"Trust me, my wolf knows how to protect myself," Sapphire toys with the tip of her hair before chuckling.
And as I am about taking my leave, Sapphire pulls me back.
"Have you tried going over to Natalie's?"
And I blink in confusion. Perhaps I misheard her.
"She could be there for many reasons, you know?"
"I don't think so, Natalie is the last person Kristen will go to."
"Okay, you might be right," Sapphire gives me a wry look before backing away from me.
Sighing for the umpteenth time, I make my way out of the club.
I wonder where else Kristen will be. She ran away from her father and Janette. She isn't with Sapphire and thank God Maddy. Because it'll be worse if Kristen was in that house where her friend was having a threesome with two men. The thought alone repulses me.
It's dark out here but I am not afraid of anything, since I am an Alpha.
My mind flashes back to when Emilia barged into my office, demanding I marry her.
It's been one problem after the other, within the space of just two freaking days.
Alpha Morrison wants me to marry his daughter before this week runs out because Emilia lied to him that I touched her when I didn't.
She drugged me and took advantage of me.
Although no one will believe this if I tell them. They'll think I'm in denial.
And it's just so fucked up.
Kristen.
I wonder where she is at this moment.
Is she even okay?
Jack Sawyer is dead but it doesn't mean she's safe out there alone. I can recall how she was abducted by three guys who tried raping her, and then Bruce and I showed up at the scene and rescued her.
Putting my hand on my face, I sigh heavily.. because I worry for her.
She's carrying my child and we haven't been apart from each other in five months, until this whole thing with Emilia came and separated
us.
Is she even okay? I can't help but ponder over this.
The more I think about her being in danger, the more it scares me. Just like how it happened with those three guys who tried attempted to rape her. And then Jack the Rogue Psycho.
need to find Kristen as fast as possible. Or else I will completely lose all of my wits.
Sapphire said she could be at Natalie's and even though it sounds incredulous, she could actually be there. Natalie hasn't turned into a new leaf, she signed the divorce papers and then returned ten days later, claiming she wasn't in her right state of mind and begged me to accept her back. It was during the time Kristen woke up and was having amnesia and paralysis.
Things are getting even worse but it seems like I am left with no choice but to try finding Natalie, even though it seems incredulous. Going in search of my ex-wife whom I divorced for her now pregnant daughter who is my mate.
