“Can you go any faster?” Xavier growled at Detective Allen.

“If we wanna make it in one piece I suggest you back down.” Allen could go toe to toe with the fiercest alphas and walk away without a scratch.

“Xavier, please.” Julian laid his hand over Xavier’s wrist and squeezed. “You aren’t helping the situation. Now just breathe and the detective will get us there to get our mate as fast as he can.”

Xavier grumbled under his breath, but Julian did what he did best in calming the beast.

Although Alena was much better at it than the beta.

“We’re gonna get her back.” Allen arched his brows and met Xavier’s gaze through the rearview mirror. “Abbott is the worst of the fucking worst. I’ve been after him for years. Didn’t know how he’d been treating your girl or I would have pulled her out of there the moment I knew about her.”

Jonathan Allen had a soft spot for abused Omegas and he broke more than one department rule to get some out of intense situations.

Wait. Did he have something to do with how Alena got out and this Dreamscape organization? I wouldn’t put it past him. Plus John would know how to hide his tracks and make it so even Xavier couldn’t find him.

Being Elias’ cousin, John did have some idea of what we did and how we operated. Damn. That would make sense.

But now wasn’t the time or place to ask him about it. I would talk to Elias first. Being related, they shared a stronger bond. Elias would want to be the one to ask him about it.

“Thanks, John,” Elias murmured, his gaze firmly locked on the scenery outside his window.

Allen nodded and gave a small hum of approval.

By the time we pulled into the alley behind the Westin, I was about ready to jump out of my skin. I prided myself on always maintaining control, but I wanted to destroy Abbott for what he’d done to our mate.

Xavier was in worse shape, Julian having to hold him back from running inside. The mood he was in, he could probably run up to the thirtieth floor and still have enough energy to smash the door in and take down Dylan.

“Listen to me, hothead.” John placed his hand on Xavier’s chest. “You have to listen to me. If you don’t he’s gonna run or he’s gonna touch your girl. Now, let’s stay calm and rational enough until she’s secure, then I’ll let you have a few extra punches before slapping him in cuffs.”

The wicked smile that formed over Xavier’s face would have made my blood run cold if I were on his bad side.

CHAPTER29

Alena

Dylan bound my hands and feet, then put a strip of cloth in my mouth to muffle my cries. I did every deep breathing and calming exercise I’d ever learned as I fought to keep my panic at bay.

My guys were coming for me. They had to be.

A commotion in the front room of the suite had me straining to hear what was happening.

“Where is she, you fucker?”

Xavier?

Fresh tears streamed down my face as I screamed as loud as I could around the gag.

Elias appeared in the doorway, Julian and Simon hot on his heels.

“Baby girl. Oh, gods.” Elias untied the knotted fabric behind my head and loosened the gag. Simon and Julian each released my arms and legs.

I collapsed against them, sobbing. “Knew you’d come. Knew it. Xavy?”

My cry for my forth mate was small, but he came running. For the second time, he’d shed blood for me. His hands were coated in it, and splatters decorated one side of his face.

“Princess.” He collapsed to his knees beside me and I launched myself into his arms. “I’m so sorry we didn’t find you sooner.”

They converged around me, murmuring soft words of love as their chests rumbled with soothing purrs. Their scents wrapped around me, reminding me that my home was in their arms. Wherever they were.
