Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle (Silver and Elliot) novel Chapter 32

Elliot’s POV

Just as I asked the maid if she had seen Silver, I felt her presence nearby. My eyes shot in the direction of the bathrooms, and I saw Silver staring at me with wide eyes. Then, she turned to leave only to run into Shirly who was exiting the bathroom behind her.

Silver froze momentarily as she looked up at Shirly and then she turned in the opposite direction and ran from the room.

I furrowed my brows together.

What was Shirly doing in the bathroom with Silver? Had she said something.

Ignoring Shirly’s piercing stares, I chased after Silver, running through the packhouse and trying to get a glimpse of her but there was no trace of her to be found.

She was fast.

“Silver!” I called out, hoping she would respond, but I was met with only silence.

I followed her lingering scent and made my way out the front of the packhouse; I stepped onto the front porch, staring off into the dark abyss, and called her name once more, but once again, I was met with only silence.

“Is everything okay, Alpha?” I heard Leo behind me.

I turned to look at him.

“I have you seen where Silver went?” I asked him.

He furrowed his brows together.

“She left? In the middle of the event?” Leo asked, staring off into the distance. “I didn’t see.”

I let out a low growl that emerged from deep in my throat.

“I need you to find out where she has gone,” I ordered my Beta.

Leo nodded.

“Yes, sir,” he said, and he left to do just that.

As the Alpha, I couldn’t just leave the event. Irritation and restlessness rose deep within me as I walked back inside. I thought about Silver’s recent behavior leading up to this gathering. She was reluctant to even come tonight. She tried everything in her power to get out of this event, but I wouldn’t let her.
