Leo’s pov
“Leo I’m-” before she could finish, I hear a loud crash at the front door of the pack house. I growl when I start to hear yelps of pain from the guards outside of the door. I stand up and stand protectively in front of my mate. No one is going to harm my mate! I’ll die before I see her hurt!
I grab her wrist tightly, just in case I need to get her out of here. I suddenly hear claws scraping the door. I feel Mira flinch at the sound and it angers me beyond words. I’m gonna kill whoever has scared my mate this much. I want to wrap her in my arms and comfort her but I’m not going to move from my spot. I’m gonna stay right here to take the brunt of whatever is coming.
The door slowly cracks open and something is thrown in the room. The door immediately slams shut and a hissing sound comes from whatever they threw inside. I see some kind of mist start to cover the room. What’s going on?
My head starts to spin and I start to lose the ability to stay standing. I fall to my knees and my eyes start to black out. I fight to stay awake but I’m soon overcome by darkness. I smell Mira’s scent leave the room but I’m powerless to stop it. My Mira is being taken away from me and I can’t do anything to stop it.
I use every bit of my strength to try to move but it’s just no use. After a while I start to hear people talking around me. No, they’re talking to me. Their muffled voices fill my ears, but the only word I understood was ‘Mira’..
My wolf growls at the thought of Mira being away from me. I sniff the air and her intoxicating scent is no longer in here.
“Leo! Wake up! Leo you have to wake up for Mira! She needs you!” Someone yells.
Anger rushes over me. What happened to my mate!?!? If she is hurt I’ll rip whoever hurt her apart with my bare hands! A growl escapes my lips and my eyes crack open. Through blurry vision I see Ronald and Nick my third in command, standing over me. I notice Ronald is bleeding quite badly from a gash on the side of his neck and Nick’s face has been beaten to a pulp.
I stood up to my feet and look around for any sign to where Mira went. My head snaps toward Ronald and a low growl escapes my lips once more.
“Where is she?!” I yell.
“We don’t know. She was gone when we got up here.” Nick mutters.
All I want to do I wrap my fingers around Nick’s neck and strangle him. He didn’t even try to track her down? Now that her scent is old, it will be nearly impossible to track!! I tug at my hair and release a breath I didn’t know I was holding in.
Then it hits me… I marked Mira. I can mind link her!
‘Mira! Mira answer me! Please! can you hear me?
Mira please answer me! Where are you?’ I scream in the mind link.
I feel her side of the mind link open up and then I hear the most comforting thing I heard all day.
‘Leo! What’s going on?! What happened?!’ She says frantically.
I can tell she just woke up. Her voice is crackly from sleep. I want her in my arms, safe, with me. I need her with me so badly. I calmly talk to her through the mind link.
‘A group of rogues attacked the pack. They managed to reach the pack house. And-wait!
Never mind that! Where are you? Are you hurt?’ My anger swells up at the thought of even a bruise on her perfect skin.
My icy blue eyes change to blood red as I imagine her hurt. If she is hurt I might not be able to control my wolf. My wolf is out for blood.
‘I’m okay, I think. I’m still semi unconscious. I haven’t tried to open my eyes, honestly, I’m scared to.’
A sigh of relief escapes me. She’s okay.
‘Listen Mira, I’ll be there soon, just hold on. This is really important, I need you to-“I suddenly feel a painful, stinging sensation go through my cheek.
I feel her side of the mind link cut off. Someone hit my mate! I’m gonna kill whoever had the guts to lay a hand on my perfect Mira. I need to find her now! I turn to the door and run out. I feel a hand grab my shoulder and whip me around. Ronald looks at me with confusion evident on his face. I just snarl at him and jerk my shoulder out of his grasp. No one is coming between me finding my mate!
I race out the the splintered, front door and find a guard helping clean up the mess. I walk up to him and he freezes. With a low, demanding voice, I get close to his ear and say,
“Get me john.”
With those words the guard disappears down the street, toward John’s house. After about three minutes I see john striding towards me. Once he is standing in front of me he bows his head.
“Alpha. You called?”
I nod my head, and place my hands that were in my pockets, to the side of me.
“I need you to track down your Luna. Her scent is a quite a few hours old but I know you’ve tracked even older scents before.” I state.
“Yes alpha. All I need is something with her scent so I can pick her up easier. Something she touches or wears all the time.” John says very cautiously.
He’s afraid of me. Just like everyone is. I motion to him to follow me inside and I quickly walk to her room. After a few minutes of looking for something, I find a fleece blanket that she always cuddles up with. I deeply inhale her intoxicating scent to calm my nerves, then I reluctantly hand it to John.
He sniffs the blanket and then races out the door.
“Come on! I caught her scent!” He yells.
Well, that was fast. I catch up to him once we are entering the forest. I quickly mind link Ronald and six other men to follow. After a few minutes I smell Ronald and the men right behind us. Suddenly I feel a small pain in my leg, I know it’s Mira. Hold on sweetie, I’ll be there soon.
We run for hours until John suddenly stops. He places a finger on his mouth, telling us to be quiet.
We quietly follow John until the scent of blood hits my nose. Panic foils me and I race toward the scent. I stop in my tracks when I see the view before me.
