The Missing Triplets

SELENA'S POV

The noise from my ringing phone woke me up. I ignored the call at first, but the caller didn't stop. I couldn't ignore it any longer, because it could wake my children up and I needed rest. 

As I looked at my screen, it was Pete. Why is he calling me at this time of the day? What could have happened to him?

I hurriedly sat up and picked the call. A faint voice that I barely heard what the person was saying.

"Pete, is that you? Please talk to me." I urged him to speak, but he couldn't say something that I could hear.

I stood up, my heart beating fast that I couldn't stand in one place. The call ended, and I started calling him back, but he didn't pick up. Could it be that he was attacked by rogues? 

I have told him time without number to stop this early morning movement, tour pack is not safe at the moment. He will always say he is a…

"Selena, this is not the time to place blame. You have to do something." I said in my mind and started looking for my jacket. 

My phone started ringing again, and I didn't waste a second to pick the call. 

"I need your help, Selena, please! I am dying here." Pete struggled to say something, but this time his voice was louder than it was. 

"Where are you?" I asked as my voice was already shivering, my hands shaking that I couldn't hold on to something. I looked at my babies, they were still asleep, and I ran out without picking up my jacket. 

*******

As I stepped out, darkness enveloped everywhere, I struggled to see through as I forgot to take my touch light, going back might be putting Pete's life at risk, so I managed to locate him. 

My eyes couldn't believe what I was seeing. Pete was drawn in blood, he couldn't move an inch, and no one was around to help lift him up.  I tore some part of my nightgown and tied his wound, before he managed to lean on me and stand. 

I was already half naked and wanted to get home and cover up because it was raining ice and my body was wet. Though, I wasn't feeling cold.

We struggled to get home. My door was open, I couldn't think straight at that point.

"Did I leave my door open?" I was confused, but I knew I locked the door. 

Pete couldn't say anything because of his condition, I tried to waive any bad thing on my mind away. 

Getting to the door, I noticed it was broken, I could feel the pieces of a shattered bulb on the floor as the lights were off. I managed to drop Pete on the floor and ran into my room to check on my children, to my greatest surprise, they were not there. 

I wanted to shout, but I couldn't. I was left in a shocking state, trying to make myself believe it wasn't reality, but it was more than real. 

I ran outside the room with tears already and started screaming. 

"What… is… the… issue?" Pete managed to ask, he was still bleeding profusely. I didn't know what to do at that moment. 

I had to call the pack doctor we had, to which she responded to the call immediately. I was running from one edge to another because there was nothing left for me to do. Where can I even find my triplets? I don't know, and they are my life. I rather die than be alive and not have them around me. 

I couldn't take it any more as I started rolling myself on the floor, shouting while some people ran out to console me, but how is it possible to control me at this state. I am more than broken!

"Selena!" Something inside me called my name and I responded loudly, not minding people that were looking at me. 

"Maybe she is going made." Some of them said, but I didn't give a damn because I wanted to listen to my heart. 

I didn't bother about Pete any more, as the doctor was taking care of him. The only option I had at that moment was to run to the father of my kids for help, I can't lose them to any unknown person. It was all a planned work to get me with Pete, if only he listens to me and stay at his house in the early hours of the morning. 

"You can't leave him lonely in this critical condition, do you think he would survive this in your absence?" The doctor questioned me. I couldn't say anything, helpless and hopeless, as the doctor left. 

"I can't trade Pete for my kids, that would be the biggest mistake of my life." I muttered to myself and covered his body, then left the house to the pack house. 

The day was already taking its shape as I arrived. At first, the guards refused me access into the house, luckily, Tyler, the Alpha of the Red moon pack, the father of my babies was on his way out.

"Let her in." He commanded with his active voice, sounding like a mighty warrior. I ran to him and fell on the ground, crying. His enigmatic figure right in front of me was something that always makes me have goosebumps anytime I am around him.

Here comes the Luna of the Red moon pack, my successor. 

"What is she doing here?" She arrogantly questioned, but no one replied to her. She moved closer to know what was happening.

"Selena, as you can see, I have something to attend to. Speak!" Tyler commanded, acting like I am a stranger that doesn't even deserve his attention, forgetting the moments we shared, the love we shared and the peace I gave him. 

Mere looking at him and his current Luna, one could tell that they are not happy together, but that wasn't why I came, because I already have someone else. Someone who truly accepted that I am his mate, even though I haven't told him I love him or want him. 

Pleading with my tearful eyes, I managed to control myself and say something. "Our baby is missing." 

"What's the meaning of that? What should I call this now? Does it mean you are going insane? You better say something before I forget whatever you might think that happened between us and serve your head to the rogues. 

I slowly raised my head to look at him, he bent down and pulled me up, making me stand on my feet. 

I looked into his eyes as our eyes locked to each other and said it again; "our triplets are missing."
