Chapter 010

Ethan was restless on his bed, he wondered how Abigail was doing and if she had been found. He picked up his phone and dialed Alex's number but he wasn't picking up and that just heightened his worry. 

The doctor told him to rest as his wounds needed enough rest to heal but Ethan was so concerned about Abigail's well being that he couldn't even get enough shut eye.

Scared,he dialed Alex's number again. This time,Alex picked. “What's the situation?” Ethan asked.

Alex remained silent for a while. Slowly,he spoke.

“We heard gunshots inside the building.” 

“Which building?” Ethan asked. 

“Alpha kael's. We guess it's his daughter causing trouble.” Alex said, adjusting his cuff.

From the background,Ethan heard one gunshot, followed by an explosion…then nothing.

“Alex? Alex?” He kept shouting,but there was no response.

Not caring if there was a healing wound across his back where a wolf had scared him with its paws,Ethan stood up and ordered for the jet to be prepared immediately.

The doctor kept telling him to go lay on the bed and get some rest,but he was completely defiant. His heart kept beating wildly,he couldn't let any harm come to Abigail.

And for Ariana,he would deal with her later. 

Immediately the jet landed at the spot,Ethan came down. The building before him had collapsed and was engulfed in flames. He saw Liam's car at the front,was he also inside?

Alex hurried over as soon as he saw his boss. “Where is she?” Ethan asked. “She…she's inside. We don't know if she is dead or alive for now.” Alex stammered.

“Find her!” Ethan ordered. He was going insane.

Frustrated,he dug his fingers in his hair and dragged them to ease the tension.

If Abigail was really dead,he would destroy the whole of the Frey and the Kael family till there is

nothing left.

The fire fighters arrived not longer after, trying to calm the flame down and look for any survivors. 

A few minutes later,the flames calmed down and Liam walked out of the ruins with Abigail in his arms.

Ethan could hardly recognize them as they were covered in dust. Ethan could hear Abigail wheezing in Liam's arms.

He walked forward, wanting to take her into his arms,but she clung unto Liam's shirt like a second skin. Ethan paused, taking in what had just happened. 

His jaw clenched as he remembered something. Liam and Abigail were probably back together already,and he was just the third wheel. 

Ethan called Alex and told him they were leaving already. Alex was shocked,his boss had wanted to see Abigail all along. He looked like he would burn the world down just to look for her. And now that she'd been found,he wanted to leave? It just didn't make sense.

“Is Ariana out?” Ethan asked,with tight fists. “Not yes boss” Alex answered. “Immediately they find her,take her to the dungeon.” He ordered before getting back into the jet. 

Abigail had small cuts and bruises on her body,but it couldn't match the ones in her heart. She saw the worry and fear on Ethan's face the other time,but she knew she had to let him go if she wanted him to be happy. She couldn't bear to live with the guilt of knowing she was the cause of his banishment from the pack.

“Are you okay?” Liam asked her, concern etched on his face. “Yeah,I'm good.” Abigail sat up. She looked at Liam,he had more cuts than she had. He sacrificed himself to save her. 

When the gunshot rang in the building minutes ago,she thought they had died. But Liam came to save her at all costs. He really showed courage and bravery,and she appreciated that.

Thinking back to Ariana, Abigail frowned. Did that bitch get away with what she did? Come to think of it,she wasn't even arrested. Well, the position of alpha's daughter came with its perks.

“I'm so sorry I put you through all of that.” He apologized. Abigail was taken back,when did Liam suddenly change?

~~~

Ethan's mind kept replaying the scene over and over again. Did Abigail really want nothing to do with him? Were the rumors really true?

He couldn't believe it. Something must've happened while he was away,but he didn't know what it was yet.

He sighed, looking outside the window. What was really happening?!

Beside him,his phone rang but he didn't pick up. He wasn't in the mood for anything that wasn't about Abigail.

But the phone kept ringing non stop. Annoyed,he picked up the phone. He was even more annoyed when he saw that it was an unknown number.

“What do you want?” He asked the caller,a brow raised and his jaws clenched

 “Don't you miss me, honey?”

A cool voice asked him.

Ethan's eyes widened 

“Bianca?”
