The True Alpha of Lupine (Seraphina and Ronan) novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107 The Promise

RONAN

It worked. Our twisted little drama, Ryker’s rage, my possessive jealousy, Finn’s whimpering heartbreak, Asher’s Provocateur. it all served its purpose. The brothel owner took the bait. He chose Seraphina, now veiled and trembling, thinking he’d found the perfect dollboy. So just like that, the spotlight shifted. While all eyes remained on her, we vanished into the shadows. Cut from their view. Out of their reach. Finally inside the Sinspire Brothel. Now Finn, Asher, and I could move, truly move, through this hellhole unseen. The real game began the moment Seraphina was taken. Every second counted, what we were chasing wasn’t just Grace anymore, it was time. That meant we were already losing it.

Leaving that room behind, we strode in the hallway of the brothel.

“We are splitting up.” I stated.

Asher nodded, already turning to the right side of the hallway. “Three floors each. Nine floors total. If she’s here, we’ll find

her

Finn turned to the left saying, “Let’s meet right here later.”

Lincreased my speed, my wolf sensing every little noise around me and spotting the brothel’s guard wolves. The brothel did. not disappoint rne and lived up to its reputation. The top brothel of the alley. Every floor had patrol wolves, each hallway lined with twenty rooms. The clientele flowed in and out like predators browsing their prey.

I moved like smoke, swift and silent, scaling the back staircases, weaving between corridors slick with perfume, sex, and misery. She–wolves lined doorways in silks and lace, lips painted red and eyes dead. They called out to passing wolves with sweet promises and vulgar offers. I ignored them all

Room by room, I searched. Pushing doors open, stepping inside to check the she–wolves only long enough to confirm. Some rooms held nothing but girls indulged in sex with wolves. Others were involved in BDSM, I shut the door fast, bile rising in my throat. Some she–wolves tried to pull me in, thinking I was another customer.

I got out without looking back.

The fourth floor. The fifth floor. The sixth.

Still there was no

Grace.

My patience thinned into fury.

“Where is she?” standing in the middle of the hallway of the fifth floor I glanced up and down. I had checked every room.

“I’m not picking up her scent either,” my wolf added, “Could she be on a floor that Asher and Finn are checking?”

As I listened to my wolf, my feet paused at another voice.

Two patrolling wolves passed down a hallway ahead, unaware of my presence. One of them was nursing a bloodied hand. wrapped in cloth, grumbling to the other.

“That damn she–wolf in the storeroom, refused to eat again. Bit my fucking finger clean off.”

“Why don’t they just drug her?”

Tried She spat it out. Lattle freak Too dangerous to sell but too beautiful to keep my hands off Might be kept so separately for the ing deal”

I stilled. That kind of she–woll

“Could it be Grace” my wolf said.

Isiently slipped beland them memorizing the hallway. As soon as they rounded the corner, I darted forward.

The sturersum was on the far edge of the building the door old and steel reinforced. I forced it open just enough to slide in, my wall appeared in my eyes to see through the darkoris

Junide I saw a wutan that sat surled up beneath the red curtain, arms around her knees, breathing heavy and fast

I took a step closer, too quick in my excitement over finding her but as soon as I ripped off the curtain I froze.

The woman was indeed beautiful but not Grace.

The she–wolves eyes widened as she backed up. “Don’t…don’t come any closer to me!” she screamed, her mouth bleeding from the bit she gave to the wolf earlier and claws out to attack. “I swear, I will kill you!!*

I looked her up and down, sensing her fear behind the facade of bravery. She was too young. Barely eighteen.

1 silently turned to walk away. My mind racing back to Grace.

She stared at my retreating back, still trembling, as slowly her panic dimmed. Suddenly begged. “Please…save me.

Her Tearful begging landed on my ears clean and clear but I continued to the door. This wasn’t part of the plan. Finding Grace and getting out of here was the trial. That’s all. Every second mattered and I was running out of time.

Just as I stepped out of her room her voice trembled, “They’re going to send someone in. A monster tonight. They said I’d learn my place.”

She crawled sobbing. “Please, help me. My mate will be looking for me. I want to go back to him. Please…”

Only she appeared in my mind, draped under that veil, sitting there waiting to be sold and my wolf woke up in my mind sharply and violently.

I turned around. My wolf snarled low in my chest. It was too late for me to stop and go against the plan.

I walked to the small and grimy window, and kicked it open with a sharp boot. She flinched, crawling back in uncertainty as the cool night air blew in

“You see that pipe?” I pointed. “Follow it. There’s a balcony three floors down. From there, climb across the side of the building to the East wall. You’ll find an open gap.”

She stared at me like I was insane, “They…they’re everywhere. They’ll find me…”

“Not if you’re fast,” I stepped closer. “If you make it down, I promise, somiedue will be waiting.”

She didn’t move. “Who?”

She held her breath, glanced at me once before pushing herself up as I helped her to climb the window.

As soon as she disappeared into the dark. I closed the window and mind–linked Mace, waiting beyond the Sinspire brothel’s building

Hr mind hoked back imeshately, “Alpha, why are you in this dirty place? Is this part of the plan?”
