AZALEA’S POV“Love, we’re only moving if you say so,” Clayton told me.I could see the anxiety on his, and my friend’s faces. We were all eager to go in there and free my father, but I was freaking out. I think a small part of me was hoping that he wouldn’t be here so that I wouldn’t feel this nervous.“Let’s go,” I said, despite my nerves.We waited for the gate to open as a van drove out, and we ran in before it closed. Again, we were invisible to the human eye, so we managed to make it into the building without a hitch. We stopped in an area where we couldn’t be seen and where there were no cameras.“What now? Where exactly are we headed?” Brantley asked.“What does the text from your dad say?” Pixie asked me.“It says that my father is here, but he wasn’t able to establish where exactly. He only knows that he’s at a restricted area on the base and it’s under heavy guard,” I replied.“Alright! The first thing we need to find is an operations room. That’s bound to have a layout of t

AZALEA'S POVBefore I knew it, I was shifted back. My father wrapped the military jacket he was wearing around me.“You have to assure him you’re not in danger,” he told me.I looked up at him. “Why does he think I’m in danger?”“It was the only way to get him here as fast as I did,” he said sheepishly.“What did you do?” I giggled.“I linked him and told him that you’d been captured,” he replied.“You linked him?” I asked in surprise.“I can link anyone princess, and so can you. We’re royalty. Now stop your mate from killing anyone,” he smiled. I turned to my said mate as he growled at our surroundings.“Love, I’m ok,” I linked him.“They’re close. We need to get out of here,” he replied.“We need to leave now,” my father told me just seconds after.The three of us left towards the motel, and my mate shifted just before we arrived. They gave him a pair of pants and I was given a dress. We were debating on whether or not we should take the cars or go at it by foot.“This all comes dow

CLAYTON'S POV“He’s being mean, and if this is what it takes to get what I want, then so be it,” she huffed.I raised an eyebrow. “I’m being mean?”“Yes,” she mumbled.“Oh really? Were you not the one who declared that they hate me?” I challenged.“Cy, he’s bullying me,” she whined.“Really? You’re dragging me into this?” Cyrus chuckled.“I’m leaving now,” she huffed.“I’ll pick you up from our room in an hour,” I laughed.“Really?” she squealed.“Really,” I nodded. She jumped into my arms, proceeding to kiss me.“I love you,” she blushed.“I love you too,” I smiled.Cyrus gagged. “And I’m going to be sick.”“Shut up!” my mate told him before skipping away.“Did you need something?” I asked Cyrus.He rubbed the back of his neck. “I just wanted to talk to you. I know we haven’t exactly talked since I got here.”I knew exactly where this was coming from. “My sister’s making you talk to me isn’t she?”“She’s threatened to lock us in a room if we don’t talk,” he joined in laughing.Cyrus

CLAYTON’S POV“Can someone please tell me where my mate is?” I asked. Beast and I were equally agitated by now.It’s been a month.My mate honestly has a talent for disappearing, and Claude alerted me that it’s a power that she’s probably figured out how to use. She isn’t at the cave, and I’m confused about why she left. The last time we were together, everything was more than ok. Now I couldn’t even reach her via our mind link.“No one knows,” Brantley responded.“Did you ask your father in mating?” Titus asked me.“That man scares me,” I admitted.“He’s not here anyway. He left yesterday morning,” Thane informed.I scowled. “He left? Why wasn’t I made aware of this?”“He’s the King Clay. We all thought you knew,” Cyrus replied.“Did he leave alone?” I asked.“No! He left with Pixie and Ariel, and before you ask, Ariel has been Alpha ordered into not saying anything, so I can’t ask her,” Thane said, walking over to the monitor.“Something tells me that the King knows where his daught

CLAYTON'S POV“No, I don’t. Your mother was spelled long ago into not saying anything, so I’m guessing that it took a lot of guesswork on my mate’s part. The last time I saw her in the Nomad world, she was about to tell me. She wanted me to find your father and together with him, defeat Simoa and Carlton. I got a call to go outside at that moment, and that’s when I was captured by the Nomad government. Before I was taken in, I watched the General in charge shape shift into a woman. I still don’t know who she is, but I am almost certain that she has something to do with my wife’s abduction. There are forces at play here that a lot of the Lycan World have been shielded from for their own safety,” he responded.“And that’s why you’re letting me in right now?” I asked.“That, and because you need to protect my daughter,” he said.“Why do I get the feeling that there’s more to what you’re saying to me?” I asked.“That’s probably because you’re smart. You and your pack members have welcomed
