Alpha Amanda's Love Adventure (By Aurora Grey) novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74 Found You

Samson’s POV:

Cold wind rushed up from the foot of the mountain. I waved away the jacket one of my men handed me and stared at the outline of Moonlight Ridge, forcing myself to stay calm.

“Josh, you take the main road up. I’ll go around the back trail. We’ll meet at the top.”

I rubbed the phone in my pocket. “If anything happens and we lose signal, use fireworks to send a message.”

“Got it. Be careful.” Josh’s figure quickly vanished into the night.

I turned and led my team up the narrow back path. The sharp rocks hurt the soles of my shoes, and the wind bit at my face, but the anxiety in my chest was worse. Every step felt like walking on hot knives.

Charles’s voice echoed in my head, “Relax. She’s tough. She won’t go down easily.”

I clenched my fist until my knuckles were white, “Shut up. Until I find her, nothing you say matters.”

“Mr. Ortega, it’s freezing. Please take this jacket.” One of the men tried again, but I shook my head. “I’m fine. You wear it. How far till the top?”

“We’ve covered about two-thirds of the climb. The rest isn’t far, but the higher we go, the rougher it gets. We should be careful.”

Before he finished, someone came running toward us, voice shaking. “Mr. Ortega! We found something!”

My heart tightened as I sprinted forward. Lying in the grass was a canvas shoe, dirt-stained and scratched -the same pair I’d seen Amanda put on this morning.

“It’s hers!” I grabbed the shoe so hard my fingertips almost tore through the fabric. “Find her! Search every inch!”

The team scattered. Not long after, a shout cut through the night. “There’s movement behind the tree!”

I rushed over and my pupils shrank in shock. Down a steep slope, someone was crouched behind a large tree. Her hands were raised defensively, her back straight. Even in the dark, she had a defiant edge. It was Amanda!

Charles let out a huge sigh of relief, “Thank goodness! She’s okay! I was about to go nuts a second ago.”

“Amanda!” I nearly stumbled as I rushed toward her, my voice cracking. The tension of the past few hours

shattered the moment I saw her.

She turned quickly, and when her eyes met mine, the guarded look on her face melted away. “Samson? What are you doing here? Am I seeing things?”

Seeing that she was safe and sound, my heart finally settled. I quickly crouched down. “You okay?”

Amanda shook her head. She tried to push herself up with the tree trunk but stumbled slightly.

I moved fast, pulling her into my arms. My palm hit her cold back, and I only felt a slight scrape.

I could see her cheeks quickly turn red, and she pushed against me. “I’m fine. I just twisted my ankle a little; I lost my footing.”
