Lily and James (werewolf novel) novel Chapter 171

Chapter 0171

(An hour later)

“What the f&&k do you mean that you do not know where Lily is?” I scream as I press Brady aggressively

against the wall in his office.

“Get off me, James.”

“F&&k you, Brady. TELL ME WHERE MY MATE IS!”

“I already told you! I do not know.”

“How long has she been gone, Brady?” Dr. Hyder asks, in a voice even more angry than my own.

“Since the day we got back from Hawaii.”

“What?!?!?!?!?!?!?” I punch Brady hard, breaking his nose. I then step away.

“How could you not tell us?” Dr. Hyder demands.

“I did not know for two weeks that she was gone. Once I found out, I immediately sent trackers out there

looking for her. That a&&hole over there was not even supposed to know where she was,” Brady explains, pointing at me, “and I did not want you to come here screaming your head off at me and tipping off the

enemies that she was out there in the world defenseless.”

“Two. Weeks. You did not know that Lily was missing for TWO. WEEKS?!?!? I gave you one assignment, Son. ONE! Protect that girl. And you did not know she was gone for two weeks? You do not deserve to call yourself an alpha! What the f&&k is wrong with you?!?!”

Brady runs his hands through his hair, obviously feeling frustrated and ashamed. Too bad I do not feel sorry for him. I want him to feel that way and more.

“Look, she left here voluntarily, okay? You know Rose is special. I think Rose helped her get out of here,” Brady says quietly, still trying to defend himself. He was doing a horrible job.

He reaches into a locked drawer and pulls out a letter. “Here, look. She left this note.”

Dr. Hyder reads the letter and then gives it to me. I read it a few times, not really sure what to make of it.

“Has she given you any clues about where she might be, James?” Dr. Hyder asks.

“Why would he know?” Brady responds, suspicion obvious in his tone.

“Because she has been communicating with him by phone.”

“WHAT? Are you even sure that it is her?”

“Yes, A&&hole. She is my mate. We have talked by text and by phone.”

“And you know it is her? Not some scammer? Not someone pretending to be her?”

“I would know my own mate, Brady. It is her.”

“Really? Because I remember not too long ago in the past you thought your mate was Stephanie.”

I get up to punch Brady again. This time I am ready to kill him. I only get one punch in-surprisingly, Dr.

Hyder does not even try to stop me- when my phone rings.
