Longing For My Rejected Luna novel Chapter 132

*****Alex's POV*****

As we were driving through the city, I saw that Jace's car suddenly veered off and headed towards the south side. I couldn't help wondering why he was going in that direction.

I glanced at Gage, hoping for some insights, but he just shrugged.

Was Erika on the south side?

I decided to stay silent and follow them, curious about their destination.

They continued driving without signs of stopping, leaving us wondering where they were going.

Soon, the car pulled over, including the other cars the bodyguards were tailing us with.

I frowned, but still stayed silent until we all highlighted from the car.

I walked over to Jace and raised a brow, which he understood instantly.

"I was once kidnapped and brought here, Erika came to see if Serenity hid here." He went ahead to explain and realization dawned on me. Erika might as well have been kidnapped.

Knowing this made me wonder why Erika would even think of coming here with just one man. She knew just how and when to be silly.

"What's the way forward?" I asked and he sighed.

"The base is located at the heart of the forest. It's actually a small base, nothing compared to the one she owned in Avenir City." He explained again. I nodded in understanding as he led the way to the supposed heart of the forest.

The floor was completely covered in twigs and leaves due to the winter season. As we walked on them wearing our boots, they made sounds, creating a crunching melody beneath our feet.

We walked for a while before arriving at the base.

Carefully, we raided the place searching for any clue to where they might have taken Erika to.

The entire place was messy and I noticed traps in every corner even before Jace informed us about them.

We searched the entire place but still found nothing after searching for a while.

The bodyguards with us even went ahead to raid the bushes behind, but still nothing.

We saw the car tire prints on the floor, but after tracing it for a while, it led to nowhere.

"This is a big problem!" Jace sighed in frustration and ran a hand through his hair. "If the people find out that the Alpha of the Ironclaw Pack have been abducted, this would be a big problem to the entire pack. It would cause a war to break out too." He lamented and I understood his point.

Indeed, a missing Alpha was equivalent to the downfall of a pack.

Just as we stayed there thinking of what to do next, my phone beeped and I went ahead to pull it out.

Checking the screen, I saw a text from an unknown number as well as a link attached to the message. A frown formed on my face, but I went ahead to open it.

What I saw next in that link made my hand tremble and my heart hammered in my ribcage.

"Jace!" I subconsciously yelled out and he came to look into my phone , curious to know why I screamed.

When he looked down at the phone and saw what was being displayed on the screen, a gasp of horror left his mouth, including Gage's.

Right on the screen of my phone, was of Erika seemingly tied at a mountain and held out on a cliff, which meant that if the rope cuts, Erika would directly fall to her death.

She was gagged as she glared at the camera that was used to record her.

"What the hell?!" Jace yelled, his hand also trembling as he force ran it through his hair.

"Who knows that cliff?" I asked, glancing at both Gage and Jace. Jace shook his head, "I don't know the cliff."

"I know the cliff." Gage accepted and my heart leapt with joy.

"Take us there now!" I demanded and rushed over to the car, but Gage called my attention back.

"There's no need to take the car, the cliff is just a few walks from here."

I frowned at that, a few walks from here?
