That was a good question, my words slow and contemplative.

“I wanted her to come back without me offering a bribe. Because it is a bribe of sorts. I didn’t want to offer more money, a job, the promise of connections, or any of that type of shit. Other girls, no problem, I’m on it. But when it came to Joanie, I wanted her to come back on her own.”

And that was the crux of our issue. The brunette was noble. She was virtuous with a real sense of right and wrong. And something like the promise of a job wasn’t a guarantee her return at all. In fact, it might back-fire.

But what did we have to lose? We were six dumbasses sitting around mooning for our lost girl. Even worse, we’d been doing this for three months now, neglecting our other duties, hearts lost.

Fuck.

We’d lost sight of what makes us alphas.

Instead of taking, we were waiting.

Instead of owning, we were asking.

Was this our new way of life?

Instead of possession, were we the possessed?

Fuck.

Had we lost everything to the girl?

Our minds?

Our souls?

Even our hearts?

And swallowing my pride, the decision was made. Joanie was worth it. I didn’t care about my ego anymore. I didn’t care about giving her room, or more time to think. I didn’t care if bribing her with a job was what we had to do.

We had to get her back.

It was the only way to be whole again.

And with that, the six of us rose, grabbing our jackets.

Because our girl has been missing for three months … and we weren’t waiting any longer.
