“They took her,” Mike mumbled. “That was why they opened the bedroom door. They trusted them.”

“I saw him on the battlefield,” Alpha Theodore mumbled quietly.

“He was there at the beginning, yes,” Alpha Lucius said. “But he wasn’t with us when we were coming back.”

“But why would they take her?” Luna Jennifer asked quietly. “What do they want to do with her?”

“They want my throne,” Dimitri said. “They want to use her as a way for me to give up my title and my Kingdom.”

Almost everyone in the room gasped.

“That is betrayal, my King!” Alpha Xavier exclaimed. “He is a traitor!”

“And he betrayed us all!” Alpha Lincoln added angrily. “If you betray our King, you betray every single one of us!”

“Yes!”

“Traitor!”

“He betrayed our King!”

“He betrayed our Kingdom!”

Everyone started shouting at the same time.

“We will find him, my King!” Alpha Lucius shouted. “He won’t get away with this!”

Dimitri tightened his jaw and looked at me.

Do you trust them?I asked.Do you think that one of them was working with him?

Dimitri didn’t get a chance to respond. The throne room door opened and Landon and Rayan ran inside.

“My King!” Landon exclaimed, his eyes wide. “Your Royal Secretary Kendrick is dead! He was killed!”

My eyes widened. The room was silent for a moment, but then everyone started shouting again.

“Betrayal!

“We will find him and kill him!”

“He has our Queen!”

“He killed a member of the council!”

I looked at Dimitri and saw him gritting his teeth. He took a deep breath and growled so loudly that I saw a couple of Betas and Lunas cover their ears.

“Your Queen is missing,” Dimitri said, his voice cold and filled with hatred. “I want you to use every single one of your resources to find her. I want you to help me bring her home. He didn't take her to his pack. He isn't that stupid. Do whatever you need to do to find her.”

He didn’t wait for anyone to respond. He turned around and rushed out of the throne room.

“Show me Kendrick’s body!” he shouted on his way out.

Landon, Rayan, Mike, and I ran after him.

My entire body was shaking with anger and fear. I couldn’t even imagine what Dimitri was feeling. He looked like he was on the verge of a complete breakdown.

We needed to find Maddie. We needed to find her as soon as possible.
