    Gone girl.

    Pulling up at Darryl Packhouse I know instantly that something is wrong, Darryl looks pi ssed and Mac


    is sporting a ck eye and his Beta, Lewis, is not there. I was looking forward to a rxing weekend,

    maybe reconnecting with Anna and hopefullying up with a n to make Faye talk. No matter how


    much I berate others around her,fort her and flirt with her, she refuses to open up and it’s proving


    very infuriating. Parking the car behind a ck SUV I get out without turning the engine off.


    “What happened?” I ask instantly, I look from Darryl then to Mac, “did he try something?” I start to move


    towards Mac with every intention of getting my hands on him if he touched my Anna.


    “It’s not what you’re thinking, Mac is a dumbas s but he didn’t touch Anna,” Darryl says getting in


    between me and Mac.


    “Then why the ck eye? Why all the tension?” I demand of Darryl without taking my eyes off Mac.


    “We should go to my office,” Darryl says looking around at the Pack surrounding us, and it seems my


    temper has drawn some attention. I just nod my head and start walking behind Darryl into the house.


    It always amazes me how full this house ispared to my own, met and Anna were working toward


    this level ofmunity before Faye came in and wrecked everything. Each person I pass seems to


    irritate me more, every member of this house is a reminder of what I’ve lost. out on and who I’ve lost


    along the way. Once we get to Darryl’s office he holds the door open for me and Mac, once we are both


    inside he


    288 Voucher’s


    walks in and closes the door behind him. I assume this office is like my own and sound proofed against


    those listening in, the inside of the office is much like my own too. Except for the ridiculous soda bar


    Darryl insists on having in here instead of hard liquor.


    As soon as the door is closed I have Mac pinned against the wall by his throat, he starts to grab at my


    hand but I just snarl at him. I can just about hear Darryl shouting over the rushing in my ears, it’s like all


    the blood in my b*dy just shot into my head. I lift Mac off the wall with the hand around his neck and


    m him back into it making the pictures rattle.


    “What. Did. You Do?” I demand of him, I speak each word slowly and watch as his face starts to turn


    purple.


    “He can’t talk if he can’t breathe!” Darryl shouts from behind me.


    “He did something so either you speak or he dies.” I snarl as I get as close as I can to Mac’s face. “I’d


    be quick, your guy doesn’t look like he has long left.”


    “Anna is gone and this as s hat helped her.” Darryl says in a rush, in my shock I let go of Mac and he


    slides to the floor coughing and gasping


    for air.


    “What do you mean, gone?” I ask spinning on Darryl, I watch his wolf sh into his eyes and for a


    second I think about stepping down but I can feel Leo egging me on, we can take him if we need to.


    “Unless you intend to challenge me I suggest you watch your tone and sit down.” Darryl says with his


    jaw clenched. We stand staring at each other for a moment as we listen to Mac gasp for breath from


    the floor.


    Deciding I need answers more than I need to prove myself to another Alpha. I take a seat in one of the


    two chairs in the office. I don’t take my eyes off Darryl as he moves past Mac and takes a seat behind

    desk, we both wait for Mac to pull himself together and slowly pull himself off the floor. Walking to the


    other chair, I don’t miss how he’s rubbing his now very red and bruised looking neck.


    “Ok, first off. I only learned of this not twenty minutes ago, I thought Anna was down on the training


    field. Turns out she was seen leaving Mac’s car about four hours ago, she had a backpack with her.”


    Darryl says look directly at Mac.


    “And no one thought to stop her?” I ask him.


    “She wasn’t exactly a prisoner, she was a guest and wee toe. and go as she pleases. After a


    few minutes of prodding this as sh at spilled the beans,” Darryl leans down to draw out a bottle of


    Southern Comfort from his desk drawers, he ces it on the desk in front of us. “Go on, tell him.”


    “Alpha, please.” Mac pleads in a small voice, he actually sounds really scared.


    “You tell him or I can, if I tell him it will be worse for you.” Darryl says while pouring two sses of


    scotch and pushing one towards me.


    “A few weeks ago Anna told me that,” Mac rubs at his neck. “S hit, she told me that she was done with


    Pack life and all the c rap thates. with it. I thought it was just words, I thought she was just mad at


    things and the stuff that’s happened to her.”


    “Get to the point,” Darryl tells him while taking a sip from his ss.


    “She told me the first chance she got she was going to get Thomas and run, she said she was going to


    run as far and as fast as she could.” I just stare at Mac as he drops this bomb on me.


    “My mate wants to take my son and run away from me?” I ask in disbelief, “what the hell have you all


    been doing with her here?” I

    “I’m sorry, I should have said something sooner.” Mac saysmely, I have a sudden urge to snap this


    guy’s neck with my bare hands.


    ‘Not before I get a go.’ Leo growls in my head.


    “Tame the wolf, Fraction. Right now we need to find Anna and get her to understand she can’t just run


    off to live in the human world.” Darryl tells me, I guess Leo is showing in my eyes. I close them for a


    second but Leo won’t be soothed, he’s on edge and demanding we go and find Anna right now. The


    ringing of a phone makes me pop my eyes open, I watch as Darryl picks up the handset of hisndline.


    “What?” He snaps down the line.


    “This is Beta James, is Alpha Fraction there?” James sounds very distressed and a little nasally, Darryl


    holds the handset out to me and I lean over to take it from him.


    “What’s happened?” I ask him quickly.


    “Anna showed up here, she came storming in to take Thomas but Faye was here. Sh it got nasty and


    they got into a fight, they are in the woods. somewhere now, I can’t find them!” I look at Darryl knowing


    he’s listening in, “Patrick and Eliza are off looking for them now, Anna just wanted Thomas but she took


    Faye down like a Momma Bear protecting her young. You need to get home. Now!” I’m up and out of


    the chair dropping the handset on the floor before James has finished talking. The only thing on my


    mind is getting to Anna and Faye before. one of them kills the other.
