Rejected by Her Mate Claimed by Four Alphas novel Chapter 168

CHAPTER 152-1

Alpha Darius’s POV

“On it,” he said, already heading for the door.

I turned to the designer, who was looking increasingly confused and concerned.

“I’m sorry,” I said, “but the measurements will have to wait. My mate is missing.”

“Missing?” she asked, her face going pale. “Should I… should I leave?”

“Stay if you want,” I said, already heading for the door. “But I have to find her.”

As I rushed from my office, my mind was racing. The rogue distraction, Clara’s disappearance, the timing of it all. This wasn’t random. This was planned.

Someone had taken my mate. And I was going to tear apart anyone who had dared to touch her.

I burst through the front doors of the packhouse and shifted immediately, not bothering to remove my

clothes first. My wolf took over, following Clara’s scent trail from this morning.

It led through the forest, along her usual running route, toward the border areas where she always went to

think. But as I followed the familiar path, dread settled deeper in my chest.

Somewhere along the way, the trail changed.

Clara’s scent became fainter, mixed with something else. Something that made my wolf recoil in

confusion and disgust.

The smell of wolfsbane. Strong and overwhelming, designed to confuse werewolf senses.

I pushed forward, trying to follow what remained of her trail, but it was like chasing smoke. The wolfsbane had done its job, masking everything beneath its bitter, nauseating scent.

Then I caught something else. The metallic tang of silver and underneath it all, the unmistakable smell of

rogue blood.

My wolf snarled with rage and fear. This wasn’t random. This was planned. Someone had used a combination specifically designed to hide their tracks from werewolf trackers.

The trail ended abruptly at our eastern border, where the scent became completely muddled. All I could

smell was rogue blood and the lingering effects of whatever mixture had been used to mask the real

scents.

Someone had taken her. Someone who knew exactly how to avoid being tracked.

I shifted back to human form and immediately sent out an emergency mindlink to my elite team.

“Emergency assembly. Now. Luna Clara has been taken.”

Within minutes, my best warriors were surrounding me. These were the wolves I trusted most, the ones

“Spread out,” I ordered. “Find every trace of what happened here. I want to know who took her and which

direction they went.

They scattered immediately, their noses to the ground, searching for any slue that might lead us to Clara.

I paced back and forth, fighting the urge to shift again and hunt down whoever had dared to touch my

mate.

The reports started coming in quickly, but they were all the same.

“The scent trail is completely masked, Alpha,” called out Luka. “Wolfsbane mixed with silver dust and rogue blood. Whoever did this knew what they were doing.”

“I can barely detect Luna Clara’s scent at all,” added Marcus from across the clearing. “The mixture is too

strong. It’s like they poured it everywhere.”

The rage that filled me was unlike anything I’d ever experienced. This wasn’t some random attack or opportunistic kidnapping. This was calculated. Professional. Someone had planned this carefully, using

methods specifically designed to thwart werewolf tracking abilities.

“Keep searching,” I ordered. “Look for anything they might have missed. A footprint, a torn piece of

clothing, anything.”

I pulled out my phone, my hands shaking with fury as I composed a message.

Within minutes, every Alpha in the region would receive the same alert.

“Luna Clara Kincaid of Shadowfang Pack has been taken from our territory. If anyone has information about her whereabouts, contact me immediately. If anyone is responsible for her disappearance, return

her unharmed or face the complete annihilation of your pack and everyone in it.”

I sent the message and immediately my phone started ringing.

The first call was from Alpha Stevens of the Northern Peaks.

“Darius, I just got your message,” he said, his voice tight with concern. “I swear to you, we had nothing to do with this. My pack would never…”

“I know,” I cut him off. “But if you hear anything, anything at all, you contact me immediately.”

The next call was from Alpha Morrison.

“Darius, this is insane. Who would be stupid enough to take your mate?

“That’s what I intend to find out,” I said grimly.

More calls came in, Alpha after Alpha swearing their innocence and offering their help in the search. But none of them had information that would actually help me find Clara.

With each call, my frustration grew. Every minute we spent talking was another minute Clara was in

danger.

Finally, I couldn’t take it anymore.

“Everyone out,” I ordered the wolves still around me. “Now.”

They left quickly, recognizing the dangerous edge in my voice.

I made my way back to the packhouse, my mind racing with possibilities. The professional nature of the kidnapping, the sophisticated scent masking, the timing with the rogue distraction at the western border.

This wasn’t random. Someone had planned this meticulously.

In my office, I slumped into my chair and put my head in my hands.

For the first time in my adult life, I wanted to cry.

Clara was everything to me. My mate, my Luna, my partner in all things. The thought of her being hurt, being afraid, being taken from me by force, was more than I could bear.

I’d never told her how much she meant to me. I’d shown her through actions, through the way I treated her, through the way I’d claimed her. But I’d never said the words.

I loved her.

Not just because of the mate bond, though that was part of it. But because of who she was. Her strength, her compassion, her fierce loyalty. The way she challenged me while still supporting me. The way she’d

made me want to be a better man, a better Alpha.

Without the mate bond, I still would have chosen her. Without the goddess’s intervention, I still would have fought to make her mine.

And now someone had taken her from me.

My phone buzzed with an incoming call. The caller ID showed a conference number I recognized.

Killian, Lucien, and Ronan. My closest friends, the only Alphas I truly trusted.

I answered the call.

“Darius,” came Killian’s voice immediately. “We got your message. What do you need?”

“Information,” I said, my voice rough with emotion. “Someone took Clara from our territory. But whoever

did this knew what they were doing. They used wolfsbarre, silver dust, and rogue blood to mask their scent

trail completely.”

“Professional job,” Lucien said grimly. “That’s not something you learn overnight.”

“Could it be Jaden?” Ronan’s voice was sharp with anger.

Lucien interjected. “I know he can be crazy and dumb but he ain’t stupid enough to kidnap your luna days to your mating ceremony. Only someone with an actual death wish will kidnap the mate of the great

Darius Kincaid.”

“So who could it be?” Ronan sighed.
