Derick’s POV
After I left Macy’s Apartment that night I decided to stay in the City until morning, Macy behaving like that towards me was a first since we got together, something must be bothering my girl for her to act like that, I did the right thing by leaving her alone, for now, I know tomorrow she’ll tell me everything that is going on, and she will bake me her favorite cake to apologize for her behavior tonight.
Now I have never smelt a shape-shifter in that area before. I just hope it’s nothing, and I’m worrying about nothing, I thought, thinking about the wolf I perceived earlier.
The next morning I had an emergency meeting with an important client in the neighboring city, so I had to leave, I had intended to take Macy for lunch that day, so I hoped I’d be able to finish and come back in time.
The meeting lasted for three hours, so I hurriedly used the helicopter, so I could meet up for lunch, I already called her favorite Italian restaurant for a reservation. Everything was perfect, I hoped she was in a better mood today
. I arrived at her office on time, feeling happy that I’m not late, I walked inside the building grinning from ear to ear because I was going to see her.
“Hello Lori.” I greeted the secretary
“Good afternoon sir.” she replied
“I’m going up, no need to inform her I want to surprise her.” I said
“I’m sorry sir, but she’s not currently in.”
Not in? Macy, of all people, doesn’t miss work. Even when she is sick she still works, so how come she’s not in “Where did she go to Lori?”
“She left early this morning sir, and said she was taking the day off.”
“Day off? Is she sick? Why the hell does she need the day off.” I ask, already feeling irritated
“I have no idea, sir.”
“What do you mean you have no idea, your boss suddenly leaves work, and you have no information on her whereabouts!.”
I yell at the secretary who looks shocked at my outbursts, but at this point, I couldn’t care less. I bring out my phone to try to call her, but her phone says switched off, where the hell are you, Macy, I mutter under my breath.
Without wasting much time, I stormed out of the office building, I was beyond pissed right now where could she be, I just wanted to spend time with my girl. What exactly was happening?
I went to her apartment looking for her. Maybe she decided to go rest at home I thought, but it was empty. I tried calling her again it was the same thing saying her phone was switched off. This is so unlike my Macy, she wouldn’t just behave like this, her actions last night were frightening, and now she’s disappeared without reach, something is going on, and I’m starting to get scared.
I decided to wait in her condo possibly she just needed some time alone she’ll come home I hoped, I went to her favorite park, perhaps she went there, Macy didn’t have friends, so there was no one to say she had visited, I waited all day now it was late, so I decided to sleep over in case she returns by midnight I’ll be here waiting for her.
It was morning in no time, I checked the house to see maybe if she returned, but it was empty with just me in it, I checked my phone for possible texts or emails but found none, I tried calling again but still the same result. I drove to her office that morning, maybe she will go straight to work I thought, I arrived to see the place closed. What the hell is going on?
I am so going to punish you for making me worry this much Macy, I know you are safe, so I’ll just have to wait for you until you are ready to come out of your hiding spot and face me, I mutter. I drove around town and visited most of the hotels and Restaurants we normally go to just to be certain, I decided to go back to the apartment and wait. I know she’ll come back home.
I sat in my car parked in the lot I didn’t want to go up to an empty house, my thoughts were going wild thinking about where she must have possibly gone too when I noticed a familiar car drive in, knowing nobody in this area can afford that type of car and there are only two of these in this country, one owned by the president and the other by my very own brother Liam Torres.
There are no convoys to show it’s the president so that only leaves one option, what the hell is he doing here??
I waited patiently in my car to see if I was right, after a few minutes just as I thought my beloved brother comes out walks to the other side of the car and opens the door for a lady to come out. I blinked twice as my brain registered who got out of my brother’s car, Macy!
I watched them talking while standing so close to each other, I lost it when he kissed her head and she allowed it. They looked at each other with something I couldn’t define. My heart is beating so fast I think it’ll fall off my chest, my wolf howling in my head to get to the woman we love, no…no it can’t be, Macy would never do that to me I say out loud to no one in particular, I watch him wait until she is gone before he gets in his car and leaves.
My girlfriend acts weird toward me, the next day she goes missing, and today she arrives home in my brother’s car, I don’t understand what’s happening, but I think I’m about to find out. I got out of my car and followed my girlfriend because I fucking need answers.
