~Dominic~

I look between the two before looking at the woman who walked up with me. I don’t know who she is, but she looks like she’s someone important. As much as I’d like to take a step back and allow her time first, I don’t want to lose my motivation.

*Flashback*

I pull my vibrating phone out of my pocket and accept the call. I have no idea who it is, but it could be important. “Dominic.”

“Have you forgotten about your best friend and future Alpha?” Sh.t! I probably should have checked the c

  • The Missing Beta   26

    ~Danny~Days passed much as they did before the incident with Skye. I kept to myself on the Beta’s floor. I tried to keep my distance from Dominic, not trusting myself to be around him. I wanted to stay away from Skye, too. It isn’t that she isn’t an amazing child. I just don’t want to be too close to her and have any reason to do what I was sent here to do. I never really thought about the mate bond before. I learned what all wolves learn about it. I heard what they said and memorized how they said things would play out. We were told it would be intense, and once your mate was scented, no one else would matter. We were told that all emotions would be in overdrive and that even when you claim your mate, the feelings would still be strong. Nothing could have prepared me for the real deal. The mate bond has to be the most powerful thing that I’ve ever felt in my life. It’s almost as if Dominic is a magnet and he’s drawing me to him. Fighting the bond is a full-time job plus overtime.

    ~Katarina~I stare at my mate, rocking our daughter to sleep. It’s been an eventful hour or so, and it has exhausted her. Elder Nadia left some time ago, promising to dig into this incident more.I won’t lie and pretend that I’m not scared for my daughter because I am. She seems to be manifesting some powers already, and I’m confused as to why that is. Gold wolves are supposed to get powers until they are marked by their fated mate. I don’t remember having any powers, and I wasn’t told that I did anything out of the ordinary.Skye looks perfectly fine; she looks like she always does. There’s nothing outward that could have contributed to what happened today, so it has to be something inside. Is it stress, or maybe something dangerous is about to happen? I wish I had a reference point to guide me, but I’m at a complete loss. My only hope is that Elder Nadia can find some helpful information.

    ~Dominic~Time is crawling, and it feels like we’ve been here for hours. I asked the question that needed to be asked, but there has been no response. I almost wish I could take the question back because her silence is killing me.My heartbeat is uncontrollable, and my mouth is suddenly dry. This could be it, this could be the end of a bond that I haven’t had the opportunity to experience. I know I said that if she ended the bond, if she rejected me, I’d deal with it. I wouldn’t make her feel bad, nor would I try to hold on. I would hold my head high and move on.I said that, but now that it’s imminent, I’m not too sure I can do that. I’m not sure I can walk away from her and act like this wasn’t something I wanted with every fiber of my being. I’m a coward, and I get that; I make no excuses.As quickly as the confidence filled me and propelled me to ask this question, it’s practically gone already. I feel myself coming down quickly, and my body is responding to the change. My chest i

    I step out of the Alpha’s office and stop in the hallway. I close my eyes and breathe in deeply. It doesn’t take long to catch my mate’s scent. I had expected her to go back to my apartment, but her scent is traveling in the opposite direction. I follow it while ignoring everyone I come across. I can’t let her get too far, and if I stop to talk to people, I will miss her. I don’t even know what I should say to her, but I’m hoping it will come to me when I’m in front of her. It doesn’t take me long to make it outside, in front of the packhouse. That would be a problem, given the mixing of scents and the freshness the air brings. Luckily for me, I’m a ranked member, so her scent isn’t lost for me. I turn and head toward the treeline, my mind racing. She doesn’t know this area, so I wonder why she might be going. The warriors don’t really know about her, so there’s a chance that she will be detained. What if she’s leaving?What are you saying, Gideon? Where could she be going

    I’m led to a conference room on the second floor of the packhouse. Alpha Aston stands at the door until we all make our way inside. His office is nice, I mean, it’s an office. I’m really not interested in how it looks, if I’m being honest. I’m more concerned with getting an explanation about what just happened. Luna Katarina leads me to a couch, and I tentatively sit down. I’m looking around the room, anxiety in every cell of my body. It’s almost like I’m waiting for something to happen. Who knows? Maybe someone will pop out of nowhere and drag me into darkness. I close my eyes and take a moment. I have no idea what’s going on in my mind right now. I sound ridiculous, and the only bright spot is that no one else can hear me. The Alpha and Luna sit around me, and another woman gets settled on the couch next to me. This must be the Elder they were talking about. She doesn’t look that old, but what do I know? Maybe the term Elder has less to do with age and more to do with experience.

    “I… I…” I let a growl rip through the room. I can’t stand someone who takes forever to say what they need to say. He’s a young man and has no idea what a man is like. It’s disgusting to think that she thought she could raise him. When I tie her to me, I will make sure I take over raising him into the man he needs to be. If I let her take over his upbringing, he will be soft. I plan to have her help raise the girl because she would need a mother’s touch. I will make sure she’s as hard as she needs to be to survive. I tune back into the child in front of me and am instantly irritated. He’s still stuttering. “Get on with it already!” He steps back, and his body starts to shake. I roll my eyes and cross my arms over my chest. He definitely needs to toughen up. “Where’s my sister?” His voice is soft like a female’s, and it’s annoying.“She’s doing a job for me. She’ll be back soon, and we will be a family.” He looks up at me, and the look in his eyes is unnerving at best. I can’t quite

    ~Dominic~I hit the bag again, watching it swing back and forth. I don’t usually mess with the bags; hell, I’m not even really into boxing. I’ve just been feeling a bit overwhelmed and needed to get it out in some kind of way. Self reflection. That seems to be the crux of what I’m doing these days

    ~Dominic~I throw another rock over the edge, watching it fall into the water below. There’s a cliff of sorts that I found. It was by accident, one of the days I was trying to run away from my demons. It overlooks a small lake, nothing major. I’m not even sure if it’s still our land or not, but I j

    ~Unknown~I thought I had made it. I thought that Khalid had made it out, and I was willing to die to keep him safe. I was ready to fight to the death, hoping that he would find someone to care for him. Once I saw that Khalid had been captured and was back here, I lost all the fight I had built up.

    When we get there, I don’t sit and neither does Dominic. He leans against a tree, staring at the forest floor. I pace a little, not really knowing how to get this started.I know this was my idea, and I stand behind it. I guess I didn't think it all the way through. I'm not sure what to say to him
