I don’t know why they wouldn’t just knock me out too.

They take Aubrey out first then me, dragging us to the car.

I want to scream, to fight. Why isn’t anyone outside? Why isn’t anyone seeing this!

Chandler and Dane, god, please. Please, feel like you need to come by sooner. Please, show up and save us.

But they don’t. The guys get us in their car and speed off down the road. Finally, Jared removes his hand. I go to turn, opening my mouth to scream at him but I don’t get a chance.

There’s a prick on the side of my neck and I suck in a gasp. “Sleep tight, Little Omega.” Is the last thing I hear before everything goes black.

Chapter Forty

CHANDLER

Our realtor seemed nice enough and she is confident that our house will sell quickly. She’s going to handle all the staging and since we’re not living there currently, it makes open house and showings easier for her.

“Stella seemed competent. I’m glad we went with her over that other guy.” Dane locks up the house and we head to the car.

“She did. A little over-friendly but I think that’s just her personality. Probably helps sell houses for her,” I chuckle.

Stella is a beta and a spitfire at that. She was oohing and ahhing at everything and kept touching us. Not flirty but like we’ve been friends for years. As long as she sells the house and gets us above market price so we can invest in a new pack house for all of us I’m fine. But she better mind her Ps and Qs when Willow is around. I don’t think our omega will take lightly to touching at all.

Speaking of Willow, we need to let her know we’re on the way. “You drive.” I toss Dane the keys. “I’m going to call Willow and let her know we’re on our way to pick them up.”

“I’m glad Tony didn’t show up at the house. The last thing she needs is him showing up and giving her any more trouble. I can’t believe he can’t just be happy for her.”

“I don’t know. He’s known us a long time, you’d think he’d be happy his little girl has established mates who he knows as well as he knows us. We’d never hurt her. But he’s too focused on age which is strange, considering he knows you can’t control the scent match.”

The phone rings forever before her voicemail picks up.

Hey, you’ve reached Willow. Leave a message and I’ll call you back. Promise.

That’s weird since her phone is always on her so she can answer chats on SensualMe. I send her a text before trying again.

Hey, you’ve reached Will–

I hang up and look at Dane. “Something feels off, right? I’m not going crazy. It’s odd that she’s not answering.”

“No, I feel it too. Feels eerie… I don’t know how to explain it.” Dane presses the pedal down harder and the car speeds up.

“I’ll call Ledger and Nash.” I pull up Nash’s number and it rings.

“Hello,” he answers.

“It’s Chandler. Hey, you haven’t heard from the girls, have you? We tried to call Willow, but she’s not answering and it just doesn’t feel right.”

“No. I texted our group chat telling them we were leaving in an hour but that was a while ago. We’re on the road now,” he tells me and my stomach sinks. “Ledger call Aubrey.”

I listen to the phone ring on the other end before the beta’s sickly sassy voice is heard.

It’s Aubrey, you know what to do. If I like you, I’ll call you back. Bye!

“Try her again,” Nash growls.

Same thing; voicemail.

“Fuck. This isn’t good. Okay, we’re on our way to the house so let’s just hope they’re napping or having sex.” I try to keep my voice calm and smooth.
