*****Erika’s POV*****
“Where do you think she might be?” We had entered my room but could not find Kat.
Paula and I exchanged concerned looks. Where was she? Where had she gone to? I went out of my room to find her, Jace was such a stupid brother. He deserved to be hit on his head. Tasyra Grigshade? No. I did not believe Jace would have anything to do with that girl. She was always acting brainless. Her father’s reputation and wealth was the only thing giving her a face in the society. And to be honest, she was quite pretty too. Only she behaved dumb. Too dumb.
She was always liking every guy she thought was handsome and caught her eye. Jace was undeniably handsome, he had always attracted the opposite sex right from our childhood. It got worse when we became teenagers, but being the quiet, reserved guy, he barely paid any of them attention. I used to him about it and how he would end up lonely if he did not show interest in any woman but he would always counter me saying he had me, I was the only woman he wanted to be around.
Tears stung my eyes, how did we get here? Me yelling at my brother and him yelling right back. We had always fought but it was unlike what had happened in the meeting room. That had been too personal. We had both gone overboard with each other.
“I thought Kat was happy.” Paula said in a small worried voice beside me. She was also trying to find Kat with me.
“Me too, Paula. Me too.” I replied. We were outside the mansion now, my gaze roamed and searched the length of the pack but it could not see the beginning nor the end, the pack was very big. Of all the packs, we had the biggest land mass. We made our jewels ourselves, our land was also blessed with natural resources which was one of the ways dad made money. This land belonged to the first Alpha who found this place shortly after history said he was forced to go rogue by a small pack on the Western side.
He had come here with some loyal members who had stood by him and when he found here, he named it Blackwood’s legacy. But he later changed it to Iron Claw when adversities came to fight him and take the land from him after they saw the minerals and gemstones the land possessed, and it was also fertile for farming — we also produced our own food. We even produced commercially too. We were successful in every area.
“Where do you think she might be, Rika? I’m getting worried” Paula was standing beside me, she too was scanning the area but could not see Kat.
“Where are you…” I was trying to ask when Paula was running back inside, but I was unable to finish the question before she ran off.
But she soon returned with a phone. Her phone. It was to her ear. “I’m trying to call her but she’s not picking.”
“Her phone is in the room too, I guess. Where else would it be?” I shrugged.
She sighed and disconnected the call. “Who do you suggest we do now? Your brother needs to be slapped severally.” She uttered, quite pissed.
“And I am going to do it, if he dared leaves this pack.”
