*****Alex's POV******
"Erika!" I jolted awake in shock, yelling out her name as cold sweat broke out on my forehead. It felt so real, like she was in danger. In the dream, I saw her being abducted, and my gut told me that something was definitely not right at the Ironclaw Pack.
I needed to know what was going on. I turned to the right to see Gage staring at me and giving me his usual pointed look.
I sighed, rubbing my forehead as he suddenly asked, "What's wrong?"
I shook my head, refusing to tell him what was up.
"You can't just shake your head when you just jolted up right now calling out your ex wife's name as if something happened. Tell me, you had a nightmare? Was she in it?" He pressed and I nodded.
"Yes, I want to see Erika…" I blurted out instead and Gage shook his head in disapproval.
"Definitely not, you were brought back last night half dead!" He yelled, standing up to his feet as he glared at me.
"Erika loathes you and doesn't want to see you, so you'd better stay far away from her."
I rubbed my head again and shook my head.
"You don't understand, I really need to see her and make sure she is alright. This nightmare was one where she got abducted, so I have to be sure she is fine." I said and without a second thought, I climbed out of bed and headed straight to my wardrobe to pick out a shirt.
Despite the winter season and the Aircon in the room, I still had sweat running down my forehead as the thought that something might have happened to her settled in my mind.
Once I was dressed, I walked out of the room or more like sprinted out of the room as I headed downstairs. Though I still felt the effect of what happened earlier, one where I was left in the snow for too long. But what mattered most was making sure my Luna was alright.
"Your Luna? You believe me now?" Elijah asked in a mocking tone and I rolled my eyes.
Gage busily chased after me as we sprinted out of the packhouse and to the car outside.
I just hoped that this dream was just a dream and Erika was alright. It was better she looked at me in disdain than gets taken away from me.
Once I got to the car, I pulled the door open as the guards tossed me the keys.
"Alex!" Gage thundered again and I looked up at him.
"You're still sick!" He yelled out and I rolled my eyes at him. "Get in the car if you're coming along." Came my response and he had no other choice but to climb into the car with me.
I drove off from the packhouse and soon hit the highways as we drove straight towards the Ironclaw Pack.
The weather was already brightened and for some reason, the day looked extremely bright.
I ignored the amazing weather, driving at full speed and soon arriving at the Ironclaw Packhouse.
Once we pulled into the driveway, I bolted out of the car and made my way to the entrance.
Just as I intended to dash into the place, I saw Erika's brother, Jace sprinted out of the house with his mate as if they were both in a hurry.
There were also tons of guards as they filled the entire place.
Without being told twice, I knew something was wrong.
I walked over to her brother who looked anxious as his mate tried to calm him down.
"Jace." I called out and he turned towards me.
I expected a look of disdain or anger like Erika always harbored, but he just walked up to me with a surprised look. "Alpha Alexander? Why are you here? Have you recovered?" He took me by surprise, but I still gave a polite answer.
"Yes, I'm alright now." I confirmed. "Is Erika alright?"
At those words, Jace sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
He looked at me and I saw pain flashed in his eyes as he said, "I have the most stubborn sister in the world."
