ARIA'S POV The dinner has to be perfect. Nothing must go wrong. "You keep stressing about it, baby." Lucas rasped from the bed. I guess my pacing must have woken him up. I don't know why I've been so snappy and irritable all day. I'm not one to snap at maids, but how hard is it to set the chairs at the right side? How hard is it to note down the number of chairs needed? It's very frustrating. "I'm not stressed. I just want everything to be perfect." "And it's going to be, baby. Come here to get some sleep so I can sleep. I have several important things to do." "What you're saying is this dinner isn't important?" The anger in me was rising by the minute. "You know, I've seen the way you've been nonchalant about this, and I get it, you're not the one bringing two sides of your lives together." "Whoa, whoa, I didn't mean it that way, baby." His gentle words made me burst into tears. "Come here, sweetheart." He pulled me under the covers, and I snuggled up to his warmth, whic

LUCAS' POV The party was going well. Aria was in her element. She seemed to glow with a light that was slowly hers. She worked the room, chatting up the women and giving the Alphas a courteous smile as she made sure that everyone was comfortable. She introduced people to each other, and she stopped to talk to some Lunas that she was more familiar with.I stood in a corner and watched her light up the room with her magic. Everyone smiled when she came near, and they didn't even know it. Her energy was infectious. I kept my eyes on her at all times, not even bothering to listen to the Alphas that surrounded me and their discussion. When she reached her twin brother, he whispered something to her, and her face lit up. I wondered what he told her. If he wasn't her twin brother, I would charge over there and demand that he tell me what he told my woman to make her light up that way. He pulled her outside, and I murmured a distracted excuse to the men around me. I squeeze through the crow

ARIA'S POV "Two vanishing acts? That can't be normal." Peter said, and we all agreed with him. "How did Alpha Lucas find out about this?" "It was at the twins' birthday party last night." "Oh, baby, we're so sorry your father and I couldn't make it last night. His hips were really acting up." "Way to make me feel like an old man." My father grumbled, and we all laughed. He would never agree that he was indeed growing old. "Anyway, Alpha Harry of White Moon was missing, and according to his associates, he would never miss a party unless it was really important. Anyway, they called him, and he didn't pick up. Alpha Dylan went over to his pack, and you know the rest." "That's disturbing." My father called back his informant to get more details about the vanishing, and it matched exactly what Lucas told me about White Moon. "I'm sure we will get to the bottom of this soon." I said, as a way to get everyone to stop worrying about it, even though I was really worried, too. "I have

ARIA'S POV A month since the disappearances started, Brielle and I were hanging out in the pack house, watching my kids hang out with other children in the pack. Since they could speak more clearly now, I put an ear out for their babbles."What's going on with these vanishing packs? Cole won't tell me anything no matter how many times I threaten him with sex.""Or maybe there's nothing worthwhile going on?" I said dryly.She considered for a moment before she shook her head. "No, I'm certain there's something going on. There's something they've found out."Brielle was rarely wrong about anything, and I mean anything. She had the instincts of a police dog sent to sniff out rabid dogs. "Maybe...""Come on, there's no way you actually believe that, right?"I groaned. "I can't bear to think of the alternative. Do you know how scary it is to think about the fact that we could literally wake up one day and we will be gone? What's even scarier than that is the uncertainty. All those people

ARIA'S POV Three days later, August was still in a coma. Lucas said it wasn't so much of a coma as it was a deep sleep."Why is he not waking up then?""Because, like the doctor said, he needs to rest. He has suffered from a great shock, and he needs to recover from it. "Still no word from my parents?""Nothing." Lucas sent messengers over to my parents' pack, and I was greatly worried as to what they would find. It's been three whole days now, and there's still no word from them or the pack. It was just radio silence. "Aria, we're going to find your parents no matter where they may be.""What if they have also vanished like the rest?""No, baby, we can't allow ourselves to think that way.""You don't know that.""Your brother escaped. That's enough reason for me to believe that they were taken, not killed. Now, your brother is going to wake up any moment now, and he will tell us what's really going on, okay?"I allowed that piece of information to calm me down. Maybe they were real
