Alpha Two 109_The Night That Changed Everything

Chapter 109: Where Is My Mate? 

 Chapter 109: Where Is My Mate? 

 (Theodore’s POV)

 The phone connection was instantly severed. My eyes zed crimson, my Alpha aura radiating murderous intent.

 “Tell me, where is my mate?” My voice cut through the air like ice.

 Killian remained coldly defiant, his jaw set in stubborn silence. He refused to reveal Olivia’s location.

 But I had already pieced it together. The clues were all there.

 “I know my mate is in the Sovereign’s Citadel,” I said with chilling certainty. “In fact, beforest night, she was living in this very vi. You brought her here from the hotelst night.”

 Killian’s face grew paler with each word. Hisposure was cracking.

 I would find her even without his help. My eyesnded on a keychain sitting on the table – car keys with a distinctive fob.

 “Check his car for clues,” I ordered one of my Alpha’s Sentinels.

 While waiting, I sank into a tormented reverie. I could vividly picture Olivia in this very kitchen, moving gracefully between

 the counters.

 A bittersweet smile flickered on my face, turning my expression into something unsettling and eerie. The constant, torturous memory of her- so close yet untouchable – was a private hell that kept me perpetually on the edge.

 Logan howled in my mind, desperate and aching. We had been so close to her, breathing the same air she had breathed just hours before.

 The sentinel returned with crucial information. “Alpha, his car was parked in front of Alpha White’s office building

 yesterday morning.”

 I suddenly realized the truth. I had missed her by mere hours.

 Rage exploded through me as I rushed toward the door. The sentinel had already confiscated Killian’s phone and keys.

 In the Rolls–Royce, I tried to dial the number Killian had used from the seized phone. But I discovered it was a one–way

 securework line that could not be called back.

 Frustrated beyond measure, I drove straight to Alpha White’s office building.

 Alpha White greeted me politely, thanking me for my technical support. But then he mentioned that he had already found “more distinguished experts.”

 I sensed he was being sarcastic, but I couldn’t care less about his attitude.

 “I need permission to enter and look for a friend,” I requested.

 Alpha White agreed without question.

 As I walked into the office building, I seemed to smell Olivia’s scent. A ghostlike presence that intensified my painful hope.

 Logan howled excitedly in my mind, recognizing her lingering essence in the air.

 (Olivia’s POV)

 I left the office building feeling aplished. The case had been solved sessfully.

 Alpha White gratefully thanked me for my help. “I really envy Matthew, having such a capable partner,” he said enthusiastically.

 After walking out the door, I finished a phone call with Killian. He had sounded concerned about my safety, but I assured him I was fine.

 I decided to find a cafe to rest before heading back. The investigation had been mentally exhausting.

 While passing through a small alley, I saw Matthew’s name sh on my phone screen. Perfect timing – I wanted to update him on the case.

 Just as I was about to answer, a young pup ran toward me with a bouquet of flowers. He looked no older than eight, with innocent eyes and a bright smile.

 “For you, miss!” he said cheerfully, holding out the beautiful arrangement.

 I saw the adorable pup offering me flowers and unsuspectingly took them. The sweet fragrance filled my nostrils as I took a deep breath.

 The world suddenly went pitch ck.

 When I woke up, I found the car had stopped. My head pounded with a splitting headache.

 I was bound by silver ropes, thrown in a car trunk. The metal burned against my skin wherever it touched.

 Staring back at me was a man with obvious burn scars covering half his face. His eyes held a familiar malice that made my blood run cold.

 He was Silvanus’s son and ra’s full–blooded brother. The family resemnce was unmistakable despite the disfigurement.

 “You’re finally awake,” he said with hysterical anger. “Do you know what you’ve done to our family? What did you do to my sister ra?”

 His voice cracked with rage and desperation. The scars on his face twisted as he spoke, making his expression even more grotesque.

 I tried to assess my situation. The silver ropes were tight, burning my wrists. But I needed to stay calm and think clearly.

 “Your sister brought her fate upon herself,” I said evenly. “I had nothing to do with her choices.”

 He backhanded me across the face. The force made my ears ring.

 “Liar! You destroyed everything! Our family, our future, everything!”

 I looked at the river in front of us, trying to summon my wolf. But Zoe was unresponsive due to the silver cord’s restraint.

 The metal was suppressing my supernatural abilitiespletely.

 Despite the difficult situation, I remained calm. Panic would only make things worse.

 *k********g me will only destroy your fate,” I warned him. “You’re making a terrible mistake.”

 He punched me again, this time in the stomach. I doubled over, gasping for air.

 “I’m going to throw you into the river,” he revealed his n with sick satisfaction. “No one will ever know what happened to 

 you.”

 I responded cleverly, bluffing with the only card I had left. “My body is imnted with a tracker monitoring my location and vital signs. Danger alerts are ready at any moment.”

 Silvanus Jr remained unmoved by my words. He grabbed my backpack and threw it forcefully into the raging river.

 The current swept it away instantly, taking any real hope of rescue with it.

 Then he began binding my limbs with silver chains, attaching heavy stones to weigh me down. The silver chains burned my wrists, leaving angry red marks.

 I nced at the time on his watch. Three hours had passed since my capture.

 “Three hours have passed already,” I said mockingly. “My danger was discovered three hours ago. Thew enforcement is on their way. I’mughing so hard, you’re such an idiot.”

 My words made him even angrier. His scarred face contorted with rage.

 “Let’s see how much you can talk in the river in a moment,” he snarled.

 When he was about to kick me into the water, I yed my final card.

 “I am Luna of Matthew Kane,” I dered. “No matter who ordered my capture, let me go, and I can pay you double the

 reward.” 

 Mentioning that powerful Alpha King’s name – a name that even Can feared – made Silvanus Jr hesitate.

 His confidence wavered for just a moment. But it was enough.

 Seizing the moment of his hesitation, I used all my strength to lift my stone–bound hands. I hooked them around Silvanus Jr’s legs, using my own falling momentum to knock him down.

 A sharp scream pierced the air, followed by a huge ssh. Silvanus Jr fell into the river.

 I also fell, desperately grabbing an old tree root on the riverbank. My body hung vertically, the silver rope burning my hands until they bled.

 “Help!” I called toward the shore. “Someone help me!”

 Three hours had passed! I just needed to hold on for a few more minutes.

 Thew enforcement team would surely arrive soon. The Syndicate’s protectionwork must have discovered my danger and quickly notified Matthew.

 He would have certainly immediately called the police. They must be on their way.

 Just hold on for a few more minutes!

 My body seemed to be mercilessly pulled by thousand–pound gravity. I felt my muscles tearing under the strain.

 Aurora’s face shed through my mind, then Matthew’s. If I died, I wondered if Matthew could raise her properly.

 If he got a new partner, would he still cherish Aurora like his own daughter?

 I was about to lose my grip. My fingers were slipping on the wet root.

 In the moment of falling, water rushed into my ears, instantly filling my throat.

 Just then, a familiar and desperate call came through our mate bond: “Olivia…” <fn1747> Original content can be found at Find[?]ovel</fn1747>
