Chasing the rejected Luna novel Chapter 58

Alexander's POV

It's been two days now that Sophia has gone missing. And I was slowly losing my mind. And it didn't help that my wolf had been pacing all day in my head. 

My hand itched to throw something on the floor but I held myself back because I had done enough damage already. My office was a mess and my mood had gone down to a negative number. I was like a ticking time bomb. But like always, Orion was the only person who could come close to me. 

"I tried finding her. But it seems the person was very smart about her abduction," Orion said from behind me and my fists tightened against the rod that was used as a protection against my window. 

And anger surged in me once more, "You are becoming more useless. Maybe I should go into the woods and find her myself since you all are so useless."

"You can't do that. You know…"

"I know what I am doing! You expect me to stand still and do nothing while Sophia is somewhere doing what god knows what!" I barked and spun around. "You know what? Fuck whatever you say. I'm going to look for her myself." I strode towards the door but Orion was quick to stop me. 

"I can't allow you to do that. There's no one in this pack anymore."

"Don't make me do something we'll both regret," I growled and turned to take the other path but he blocked me, an apologetic look on his face. 

"You're the last Alpha. And there's no sign of Dianne or her mother. What would happen if something bad were to happen to you? At least you should think about this pack," Orion said and damn he was right. 

As much as my reasoning was clouded by rage, I knew Dianne and her mother had something to do with Sophia's disappearance. And I do wish I could find them without ripping off their heads and that of Orion who blocked my way.

"My father is here, isn't he? He can very well take care of the pack. Isn't it what he had always wanted? Plus I can't stay here while Sophia and my heir are in danger. And do you know what angers me the most? Why do I so much want to see her?" I asked him, turning around, and swallowing the lump in my throat. I just couldn't face him. 

Even if a part of me knew I should be in the pack and Orion was trying his best, I just couldn't rest. 

After some moment of bantering between Orion and me, I finally decided to rest for just another day and see how well his tracking skills played out. According to him, they are working on new methods on how to track her. 

I knew I had the best tracking team. But it angered me that they couldn't get where Sophia was located. And I wanted to smash something again. Maybe some of the rogues. But I have been doing that since the day I found out Sophia went missing. 

There was this ache in my heart that I couldn't explain. Maybe it was because bi doubted her the last time we spoke. 

I stood up and walked up to the drink cabinet. There was only a bottle remaining after I scattered the rest in a fit of rage. Hell, I wanted to kill someone. And my wolf was madder because this was the second time she was taken. And it had been my fault big only I believed when she said the baby belonged to me. 

Why did I doubt her? I guess I was feeling hurt that she would easily lay with another man that wasn't me. Especially since I thought the man to be my enemy, Ryven. 

Gulping down the drink, I walked over to the window. I had been doing nothing all day but staring out of the window in hopes that Sophia might walk out of the woods hale and healthy, telling me she pulled a prank on us all so we would know how important she was. 

The painful tug in my heart told me that was only wishful thinking. Sophia would never do something like that. I knew that much about her. And it pained me. I knew so little about me. When she forgave me easily for what I did to her. She was willing to start a second chance with me. And it didn't help that the last conversation we had wasn't exactly nice and pleasing. 

I sighed for the millionth time as I felt Orion behind me. I had been too caught up. in my grief to realize the door had been opened and he was in. 

"I have some news for you. Good and bad need," he said and I tensed without looking back at him. 

"Speak," I was in no mood for games nor did I want to be left hanging for too long. If not, I might snap because only a thin thread of sanity had been holding me. 

And the moment I snap, my wolf will finally be released, causing havoc. And Orion wouldn't be able to stop then.
