Chapter 6

Luther 

I stood there looking around trying to make sure that there was nothing that would cross my eye. I had searched the entire hospital to see if I would find Selena but there was no sign of her. 

‘Did she leave the pack? There is no way for me to help her now,’ I was looking around trying to find out what happened. 

I stood outside the hospital looking around, “What in the world is happening now? Selena can't even move that far with all those wounds on her body.” I clenched my fist, the pain of thinking about something happening to her haunted my mind and there was nothing I could do. 

While I was standing out there a car pulled up in front of me, it was my beta, Lucas. He arrived as soon as he heard that I was about to leave the hospital. 

He opened the car door and stepped out, “Alpha Luther, sorry I am a bit late.” Lucas said as he walked towards me looking a bit troubled. 

“It's fine, tell me, have you heard anything from Selena?” I asked Lucas, waiting for him, to tell me that he had seen her earlier that day back at the packhouse even when I knew that it was not true. 

“No, my Alpha, I have not seen her except the morning before she left with lady Adriane.” Lucas looked at me, he could see the hurt in my eyes and he was sure that there was something that was bothering me. 

“Is there anything wrong my Alpha?” He asked looking at me, he could see the pain in my eyes. It was not like I was trying to hide it from anyone but it was clear as day that I was bothered. 

I looked at him with a smile, I didn't want him to know what was going on. “I'm fine, don't worry about a thing.” I only said those words to make sure that there was nothing going to distract him. 

Lucas wasn't going to be deceived but he didn't want me to feel like he was pressuring me into telling him anything. 

“If you say so my Alpha, right we are heading back to the packhouse?” Lucas asked as he looked at me through the rearview mirror. 

I nodded trying to make sure I didn't say anything, thinking of where my wife had gone to. 

‘I didn't know that she would leave like this, not even leaving a trace of where she had gone. This is not like what I would even want to imagine. But I hope she is okay,’ 

My thoughts kept running wild at first, we got back to the packhouse and I saw that it was a bit quite than usual. 

‘Well, why wouldn't it be?’ 

The Annual Blood Crest Pack ceremony was about to be held when the accident happened, what was more alarming was that it was my wife and my supposed fated mate who had caused the accident. 

I left to go see the council of elders to make sure that there was nothing going to be wrong with them but also I wanted to know the punishment for the crime. 

I had learned that if the wounds were proven fatal they would have to banish the person responsible with a silver chain around her neck showing that she was a criminal. 

I didn't want that to happen to any of them so I wanted to make sure that there was nothing going to make them look like criminals. But it looks like I took things too far, when I entered and I heard Selena's side of the story I immediately knew that Adriane had done all that. 

But there was no way I would be able to make my mother and sister see that Selena was not meant to take the blame, they already had it in their mind that she was a worthless nobody. 

‘If only they knew,’ 

I got out of the car, I looked around to see that there were no maids in the pack house at the time. All the omega maids were absent, it was a holiday after all. 

“Alpha Luther, you're home.” I looked up to see the head maid Gerlta standing by the doorway, she had a smile on her face to see me. Even if all the maids were absent Gerlta would always make sure that there is nothing out of place for us. “I wasn't expecting you to be back at this moment, you're not with lady Selena.” 

“No she is not here with me, I thought that she would be back here.” I sounded a bit defeated but I made sure that I held back my facial expressions. 

“No she hasn't come back, she left quite early with Lady Adriane,” Gerlta pointed out with her smile not even fading, she was looking at me trying to see what I was trying to say. 

I nodded as I headed inside the house, I was not in the mood to see anything other than Selena and her beautiful silver hair. The one radiating smile that I would always look forward to when I would come back to the house, even though I was being held down by my mother and sister constantly calling her a nobody. 

No matter what I did, they would always try to make it look like I was only marrying her out of pity when it was not for that. 

I walked into my room, and I noticed it harbored a familiar and comfortable scent. 

“Selena?” 

I looked around to see that the room was well arranged and all my clothes were kept in place. 

“Gerlta, who cleaned my room?” I asked the head maid. 

“It was lady Selena, she never lets anyone do it but her. Even though I tell her to let me do it she would never agree to anything I say.” Gerlta had a smile on her face, I knew she was not angry that Selena would try to do anything like that. 

I forced a smile on my face, my heart filled with pain. I just let the words roll out of my mouth. “Yeah I know she was something, and I think I lost her.”
