Claiming His Tempting Mate novel Chapter 67

Hardwick's POV

I glanced towards the door and frowned when I saw no one coming out. I loosened my tie as I started to suffocate out of nowhere. Why is she not coming out? It has already been over 10 minutes since she went to the washroom. She should have been returned back by this time.

"Hardwick" I turned to focus on the voice. Savannah's mom walked towards me with her husband.

"Good Evening mom" I smiled.

"Evening my dear, this whole ceremony is so grand. I never thought there would be so much crowd like this" she smirked.

"It's a big day for Savannah so of course it has to be grand. I don't want anything to lack on her special day"

"How sweet" mom said dreamily "I knew my daughter will always be happy with you" she wiped the corner of her eyes "I am so happy that after going through such hardships my daughter finally able to live the life she deserves"

"You are getting emotional again" her husband handed her handkerchief and smiled "you can't cry like this tonight. Don't forget it's Savannah's grand ceremony and if she saw you crying like this, will she feel good?"

"I know, I am sorry" she chuckled, "thinking about all those things I suddenly flooded with my emotions" she wiped her eyes with the handkerchief. I smiled at them then turned my eyes to look at the door again.

"You are looking for someone's son?" Savannah's dad asked.

"Savannah went to the washroom. She didn't let me accompany her" I replied, frowning.

"Don't worry, it's just washroom" mom chuckled "she will be back soon"

Her words should be comforting but I don't feel any comfort yet my heart is restless. Where is she?

"Everyone's here" a cheerful voice sounded from afar. The happy face of Tanea appeared instantly after the voice faded.

"Alpha Hardwick, Dark Forest is really beautiful. And the decoration for the ceremony has added a new charm to this place and I must say Sav is really lucky one" Tanea praised.

"Thank you" I smiled

"Where is Sav?" Devak looked around.

"She went to the washroom," mom replied.

I looked around and gestured to Luina who was attending the guests at the side. She nodded understanding my gesture and walked towards the pack house.

"Sav went alone? I should have gone with her. I wanted to use the washroom too" Tanea pouted.

"You want to go?" Devak glanced at his mate while asking.

"I was feeling little uncomfortable at first so I thought to use washroom"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I would have taken you" Devak frowned.

"I am sorry, I thought it will go away"

"Tanea dear, are you fine?" Mom asked.

"I am fine mom, it's common for me"

"If you are unwell then I can ask the pack doctor to check on your condition" I offered "she is an obstetrician so you won't have any problem regarding your health"

"I don't want to trouble you Alpha Hardwick" Tanea smiled with embarrassment.

I shook my head "it's fine, besides the pack doctor is attending Savannah too. And in this condition you should not risk even a small thing"

"Hardwick is right dear. If you are uncomfortable then let the doctor check on you" mom also insisted.

"In that case then thank you Alpha" Tanea nodded.

"I will ask the doctor to check on you" I said and pulled out my phone and was about to call when an anxious voice screamed.

"Master"

I turned around and saw Luina running towards me. Her face was pale and shocking. My heart started to beat faster as anxiety started to grow its roots.

"What happened?"

"Master, Mistress..... She is not in the room. I checked her in your room but I saw it was a mess like there's some fight in the room. And there's no sign of the Mistress in the whole mansion" Luina replied hurriedly.

"What the fuck do you mean she is not here?" I growled. My jaw clenched. Anger started to boil in my body.

"What the hell?" Devak cursed "where is my sister?"

"I don't know Master but Mistress is definitely not here. I have checked every room of the mansion personally but there's not a trace of her. It's like someone has kidnapped her" Luina lowered her head.

"You are her personal maid. Why were you away from her?" I asked her.

"Mistress told me she don't need me today"

"Just because she said? Did you forget what your job is?" I growled.

Luina fell on her knees "please have mercy Master. It was my mistake I should have been with Mistress"

"Get your punishment in the East Side after this matter settled"

"Yes Master"

Ryan ran towards me with Jenny "What happened?"

"Savannah is kidnapped," I told him.

"What? Fuck .." he cursed.

"What will happen? Mistress is already weak because of her pregnancy" Jenny gasped as she looked so worried "Ryan do something please" she shook his arm.

"Let me think first baby, calm down" he patted her shoulder.

"Who the fuck did this?" Devak growled "I swear I will chop off their head" , the veins in his forehead almost popping out of his skin. Tanea holds his arm trying to calm him down.

"We can't rush things now. You have to calm down first to find a rescue plan. And it could not happen with an angry mind" Alpha Micah suggested.

"Yes, first of all we have to find who took her. My poor daughter, she's already pregnant and if something happens she could never forgive herself" mom said. Her eyes were dull and her face was pale. Those happy faces turned into worry in a second.

"I know who did this" I clenched my fist. That fucker dared to do something like this. Looks like he is tired of living his life.

"Who?" Devak glared.

"Who else? that fucker Avan of Bright Shine" Ryan griited his teeth.

"That bastard" Devak clenched his fist "he dared to touch my sister with his filthy hands"

"We should attack Bright Shine. How could a mere pack like them dared to kidnap our Mistress?" Jenny said angrily.

"It won't work" I shook my head "if Avan was planning then I don't think he will take Savannah in the pack house. He might have bring her to another place secretly"

"Then what should be done now?" Alpha Micah asked.

"Exterminate the Bright Shine Pack"
