DominicI followed Bri's scent for hours. The longer I followed it, the angrier my wolf and I grew. After leaving the student commons room, it was like she went in circles around the buildings. It didn't make any sense. The path wasn't anything that a normal person would have made. Even if she decided to go for a run around campus. It didn't make sense. Along with that, her things had been left in her car. She wouldn't have gone anywhere without her sketchpad and at least one pencil. Well, maybe a run, but then again, unless she were in wolf form, she wouldn't have gone for a run. Why would she, here anyway? There was no reason for her to go for a run in wolf form. Not on her own, anyway. Turning around, I made my way back to her car. Maybe I missed something. I had to have it, right? I had to have there was no way I wasn't missing anything. If she had shifted and gone for a run, there was a reason for it. What was that reason? And if she wasn't in wolf form and had gone around and a
BriAfter my conversation with Alex and Alpha whoever, I was left in my cell on my own. Well, not entirely on my own. I could still hear and smell two pack wolves down the hall but couldn’t see them. Sighing, I looked around me. The cell had only three brick walls, with the fourth made of bars. The floor and ceiling were concrete. There was no bed or even a cot in the room with me. There was a concrete bench on one wall. In one corner, there was a toilet. I suppose I should feel lucky it wasn’t a bucket, but they could have been nice enough to provide some kind of privacy option for it. Though I am sure, that is more for my inconvenience than anything. Make my living conditions as uncomfortable as possible, and I will do what I am told to do sooner rather than later. Slowly I walked around the cell, looking everything over. There were no cracks in the walls. No signs of the bars having a weak spot. Overall the space was well maintained, and escaping was going to be tricky. Though I d
DominicMy wolf was mad at me. Heck, I was angry at myself. I should have done more. Bri said she felt like she was being followed. I never found evidence of it. There were no new scents. I should have paid attention to those around us. Those I thought we knew. If I had, maybe I would have noticed Alex's scent all over the place. I could only blame myself for not noticing it. My wolf blamed me as well and refused to acknowledge me until we found our mate and she was safe again. The fact the witches have tried spell after spell and none of them have worked in finding Bri didn't help. The coven has been locked in Luna Lucy's office for two days now. Blake kept his trackers out searching even though we already knew it was pointless. There was no way of tracking a car we didn't know anything about. To pass the time, I paced Blake's office floor, waiting for the witches to have good news. All I needed was a location. Once I had that, I could go get my mate. The office door opened as Luna
BriI could still hear Alpha Jerk face, angrily giving orders to whoever stayed at the end of the hall from my cell. I was still lying on the concrete slab bench of my cell. Yet, at the same time, it was like I was with Dominic in a room I didn't recognize. With a handful of women chanting something, I couldn't understand what they were saying. Landon and Angel stood behind me with a hand on my shoulders while Blake stood in front of me, holding my hand. No, they weren't touching me. They were touching Dominic. But that couldn't be right. I could feel them touching me. Only when I looked down, it was definitely Dominic's hand in Blake's. "What's going on?" I was so confused. How could I feel them touching me when I wasn't there? How could I feel as if I was with Dominic but couldn't see him unless I looked down? Had I fallen asleep? If so, what a strange dream. "Wolf, tell me what you know. Quickly I will not be able to hold you here with your mate for long." Lucy's voice came out
DominicBy the time Landon, Angel, and I got back to our feet, Lucy was conscious again. She was even already back on her feet. The six other witches in the room were also already moving. Two of them were changing out the candles that were in the room. Switching the white candles out for different colored ones, red, blue, brown, and green. Two of them were changing out some of the markings they had drawn on the floor. And the last two were mixing several different things from jars they had sitting on Lucy's desk that had been pushed off to the side. Lucy seemed to recover pretty quickly and moved away from Blake, ignoring his attempts to look her over to make sure she was ok. Gathering a couple of maps, she placed them in the middle of the room on the floor. "Angel, I will need you to stand there."Moving, she took Angel's hand and dragged her where she wanted her. Turning, Lucy moved over to her desk, taking two cups from the two that had been mixing things. The two followed Lucy ba
BriBeing left on my own, I sat down on the floor of my cell. Drinking the entire contents of the bottle of water and whatever was mixed into it wasn't the best of ideas after not having something for so long. My stomach wasn't happy. However, I didn't have long to think about it as my stomach stopped doing flips, and my vision blurred. It wasn't like before when I was being taken. Though I definitely felt like I was going to pass out, and I did seconds later. Only everything didn't go black. It was like I blinked. And one second, I was sitting on the floor of my cell, and the next, I was standing in the dark room with Lucy and Angel. This time I was myself, and the guys were no longer there. Everyone else was, though. Although the other witches were chanting still, they were saying something different. Lucy didn't let me look around long, only half a second, before pulling my attention to her. "We don't have long. I need you to agree and except Dominic has already agreed and taken
DominicMy wolf didn't make the trip there easy. The whole time he complained we were moving too slowly. But in reality, we made really good time. Getting to the Gold Crest Pack's outermost borders in just under three hours. If the mark on the map was correct, Bri was being kept in the centermost spot of this pack's territory. Blake ordered a handful of wolves to move away from the rest of us. Moving out, they noted everything relevant to how this pack watched over their land. After a little over an hour and my wolf nearly going completely mad, Blake ordered half the pack to shift. Everyone moving as one, we crossed The Gold Crest Pack's border without hesitation. Moving through a spot, we noticed their patrols didn't pass by more than once in an hour. We made it all the way through the pack's territory without being noticed. Whoever this Alpha was that took Bri didn't do a good job securing his territory. Actually, he was really bad at it, especially since we were able to basically
BriThe longer we stood in the clearing, the clearer the whole pack became. I was able to hear everything they were saying to each other. A head count for this pack was being done. There were way fewer members than I thought there could be. There was also Blake giving orders to the pack through the link, even while talking out loud and egging Sam on. Though I didn't let the opportunity to prove Blake right go by. As he mentioned me flinching at the guys who were to guard me, I did just that, leading to them all losing their cool. Although, having members from our pack move in and stand right behind the guys without them noticing wasn't all that nice. Though hard to keep a straight face, I tried not to laugh too hard at my guards as they got scared twice. The chains holding my hands together were removed quickly once I was no longer being surrounded by several guys from the other pack. My wolf wanted to instantly go to our mate. But I needed, no, I wanted to do something else first. M
