“Well? Did you find her?” Samson’s familiar voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I quickly pulled up the footage.

I pointed at the screen, my voice tense. “The car that took Amanda out of school disappeared near Moonlight Ridge. Do you think they took her there?”

Samson’s eyes darkened. “I’m heading there right now. No matter what, we have to find Amanda as soon as possible.”

Josh immediately stepped up. “I’m going with you.”

So we gathered a team and headed straight for Moonlight Ridge.

Amanda’s POV:

The back of my head still hurts. I opened my eyes and everything was pitch black, without a single trace of light. A rough, chafing sensation burned at my wrists. I looked down and saw my hands were tied together with thick rope, squeezing my bones so hard it hurt.

“Anyone?” I yelled hoarsely into the darkness. Only my echo answered, making everything feel weird and

creepy.

No doubt about it, I’d been kidnapped.

I gritted my teeth and struggled. The rope rubbed my wrists raw, and soon I saw blood. Using that sharp pain, I managed to force a small gap open in the rope.

After my eyes adjusted, I could see I was in a rundown wooden cabin. A cold wind blew through the cracks in the walls. Moldy straw was piled in a corner.

When I pushed the door open, a cold wind hit my face like a knife. Far away, some animal howled—it sounded incredibly loud in the quiet night.

I clenched my fists, anger burning in my chest. “If I find out who did this, I’ll kill them.”

Right then, I heard heavy footsteps. I quickly closed the door, stumbling back to the corner, and stuffed my wrists back into the loosened ropes, pretending to still be bound.

Bang! The door got kicked open, and a bright flashlight beam hit me. I raised my hand to shield my eyes. The air smelled like cheap cigarettes and sweat.

“You’re awake,” a rough voice said. Something hard and cold was thrown onto the ground in front of me- a dry, stale bread. “Eat. Don’t you dare starve to death on us.”

I didn’t look at the bread. I stared at them, my voice shaking with anger. “Why did you bring me here?”

The man on the left snorted and didn’t answer. He just said, “Don’t ask stuff you shouldn’t. We’re only doing this for the crystal stone. We know nothing else.”

Crystal stone? My mind jumped. I switched tactics fast. “If you let me go now, I can give you a lot of it.”

The two men went silent right away. They exchanged a quick look before the one on the right laughed. “Kid, who are you trying to fool? A million crystal stones? You think we’re that dumb?”

“I’m not bluffing,” I said calmly, speaking slowly on purpose. “Let me go, and I’ll send the crystal stones to your account immediately. Whatever the person who hired you offered, I’ll double it.”

The guy on the left gulped—he was tempted, I could tell. But when he saw how fearless I looked, he forced himself to sound tough. “Enough tricks! Just stay put. We’ll let you go when the time is right!”

They slammed the door behind them, and I finally relaxed. At least they didn’t want to kill me. About an hour later, I heard two sets of footsteps outside. One faded away, and the other stopped right at the door.

Only one guard left! My heart leaped. My chances of escaping just shot up. I carefully reached into my pocket. My fingers brushed against the cold surface of my phone, and a spark of hope lit inside me—I had to contact Theo first.

In the darkness, I held my breath, listening to the footsteps outside pacing back and forth, waiting for the right moment.

My eyes swept the cabin. I didn’t grab the wooden stick lying nearby. As an alpha, I didn’t need it to deal with someone like him.
