“Hey Ryker,” He answers.
“Has Tim left yet?” I ask him and the phone goes silent.
“What do you mean?” he asks.
“Tim was meant to meet me today, didn't he tell you.”
“He said the meeting was yesterday, he left yesterday morning, haven't you seen him.”
“No, it is today, he should be staying with you.”
“Ah Alpha, Tim was quite adamant that he had to see you yesterday after he heard from the humans, he should have reached your pack last night,” I hang up, what was this rogue up to, but more importantly where was he, he hasn’t stepped over the border I would have been alerted, does that mean the humans got to him before he could inform me of their plans?
“What do you want to do, Alpha?” Zana asks and I look at my father’s best friend.
“Alert patrols to remain alert, I have a feeling something has happened to him, tighten security. I need to go home and check on my brothers and mate,” I tell him getting up and walking out. Instead of waiting for the lift, I take the stairs racing down them. Brax pressed against my skin, and I could feel he was on edge. Something felt wrong, yet no one had noticed anything out of the ordinary, or I would have been alerted.
Getting in the car, I start the engine tearing out of the parking lot so fast, the car slides out as I pull onto the road heading home. Pressing my foot on the pedal harder when I leave the city limits. I was halfway home when I heard my brother's voice flit through my head, panicked.
“Ryker, Reika,” He mindlinks before the mindlink drops. Pain radiating down my limbs as I feel my brothers drop, feel searing pain through my body making me pull over. “Reika,” my brother said and I knew that she did something, I should have known better than to trust her with them.
I could feel my brothers growing weaker as I tried to mindlink them, get something from them as I jumped from my car shifting before tearing through the forest racing home. I feel my brothers growing weaker before feeling nothing from them, my blood boiling with intense rage. I was going to fucking kill her.
Chapter 23
Reika
We watched them play video games, they seemed to be very good at it. After about an hour though they became bored. Tyson gets up off the ground and stretches his back and Ace turns the TV off.
“Want to go for a run,” Ace asks me.
“I don’t think I am allowed to leave the house, and he locked the doors,” I tell them.
“You are with us, you will be fine. And I have a key,” Ace says, holding it up. I feel my wolf stir to life.
“This is our chance, we go outside and we can easily outrun them,” she tells me.
“Maybe we should ask Ryker first,” I tell them. My wolf growls at me and can tell I didn't want to leave the house. I didn't if it meant leaving. I wanted to stay with my mate, stay here. I didn't want to go back to that place.
“Just remember your promise, you can't go back on your word Reika. We promised her,” My wolf tells me. She was right, I had to keep my promise, she was my only friend and I promised I would get her back if I could.
“Let's go,” I tell them. They smile excitedly and Ace grabs my hand pulling me down the stairs. He takes me to the kitchen before putting the key in the door and twisting it. The double glass door opened and I felt the cool breeze move over my skin. I sniff the cool crisp morning air. Ace and Tyson start stripping their clothes off before staring at me waiting expectantly. I start pulling my clothes off and dump them on the outside table. Turning around I find them both staring wide-eyed at me.
“What?’ I ask, and I watch their eyes trail down my body, Tyson smirks and I suddenly feel weirded out by them staring at me. I never feel self-conscious but them looking at me made me feel dirty like it was wrong the way their eyes lingered on my breasts. I shift, feeling uncomfortable. I didn’t feel like that in front of Ryker or his family yet two young boys creeped me out.
Both of them shift, and I see both their wolves are a dark grey color. They were pretty big for teenage wolves. “They have Alpha genes that’s why,” my wolf says, answering my thoughts.
Both of them take off across the back lawn which looked more like a paddock, only well-manicured and maintained and had gardens edging around the perimeter, and on the far side was the forest. I chase after them following them. Ace pouncing and pulling on my tail as I overtake them. We zipped in between the trees as their wolves tackled each other. My wolf laughed at their playfulness as they tried to catch up to us. We were a lot faster, and more agile than them. Jumping logs effortlessly.
I run ahead before I feel my wolf start running harder making a break for it, leaving them lagging behind further with each step. The soft earth mushing under our paws. My wolf suddenly starts to slow sniffing the earth when she picks up a scent she recognizes. She stops, sniffing it when Tim the rogue I was living with in the cave steps out from behind a tree.
“I have been looking for you,” he says, and I turn my head looking him up and down.
“They want you home, they aren’t too happy with you running off,” he tells me and I shift back.
“Are they here?’ I ask him and he shakes his head.
“No, but I have been sent to retrieve you, bring you home.”
