143 Missing
Levi’s POV

“Mate!” My wolf shouted loudly in my mind, making my eyes widen as I forcefully woke up from the couch. Panicking, I ran out of my room and made my way to her room. My heart was pounding, and my wolf was howling in discomfort. Just as I reached her room, I noticed Lennox and Louis also racing down towards her room with the same panic in their eyes. I didn’t need to be told to know that they also felt it; their wolves must have alerted them.
I didn’t wait for them; I pushed her door open, but Olivia wasn’t in her room. My heart raced as I stormed into the bathroom, but there was nothing. Her scent still lingered, but she wasn’t there.
I stormed back into the room and quickly tried to make a mind link with her, but it wasn’t connec ing. I
gasped and shook my head as I tried again, but still no connection.

“Guards!” Lennox yelled, his worried voice echoing through the halls of the mansion.
“She’s not connecting,” Louis said in a worried tone, running a hand through his hair.
I shook my head in fear, imagining something was wrong with her. The alert from my wolf told me something wasn’t right. Olivia might be in danger, but
how?
About ten guards rushed into the room.
“Search every corner of this mansion for our wife,” Lennox ordered. “Now!”
But I didn’t wait.
I followed Olivia’s scent, out of her room, through the hallway, and down the back corridors. I rushed past the garden and kept going; her scent grew weaker and weaker.
Finally, I reached the main gate.
Her scent stopped.

Just disappeared.
“No,” I whispered, frozen in place. “No, no, no…”
Lennox and Louis caught up to me at the gate, and from the look on their faces, they knew Olivia was
gone.
She wasn’t in the mansion anymore.
My heart raced as I quickly opened a mind link to the guards stationed at the borders.
“Who left the border recently?” I demanded.
“No one, Alpha,” one guard replied.
I growled in frustration. “Our mate is missing!” I snapped. “She’s not in the mansion. You need to check every single border point again. If anyone comes
close, alert me immediately. Don’t let anyone through. Understood?”
“Yes, Alpha!” they replied in unison.
I closed the link and turned to Lennox, who was already walking fast, his jaw clenched in anger.

“I’m going to the CCTV room,” he said.
Without hesitation, Louis and I followed him.
My heart was racing, and different scary scenarios were building up in my head, and to make matters worse, my wolf was howling, sounding so troubled. Something was definitely wrong with her.
We reached the security room quickly, all of us breathing hard. Lennox didn’t wait; he walked straight to the door and pressed his thumb on the scanner. The light turned green, and the door unlocked with a click.
We went inside.
The room was full of screens showing different parts of the mansion. Lennox sat down quickly at the main computer and started typing fast.
“I’m pulling up the camera in Olivia’s hallway,” he said.
The screen changed, showing the hallway outside her room. Lennox rewound the footage to about a few minutes ago so we could see what happened.

We all stared at the screen.
But nothing moved.
“It’s frozen,” Louis said, confused.
“The footage isn’t playing,” I added.
Lennox’s eyes narrowed. His hands flew over the keyboard again.
“Someone paused the camera,” he said angrily.
My heart dropped. “Paused it? Why would anyone do that?”
“So we wouldn’t see who took her,” Lennox growled.
He kept trying to restart the footage, but the screen stayed stuck on the same still image of an empty hallway.
As Lennox kept trying to fix the frozen footage, my eyes moved to one of the other screens on the wall.
Something caught my attention.
A truck.

It was driving out through the main gate… just a few
minutes ago.
“Wait,” I said, pointing. “Look at that.”
Lennox and Louis turned to the screen.
The truck was familiar. It was the one that usually delivered supplies to the pack house–food, medicine, and other essentials.
But something didn’t feel right.
“That’s the supply truck,” Louis said. 2
“Yeah,” I replied, narrowing my eyes. “But why is it leaving now? It never comes at night.”
The timing was too perfect. Olivia disappeared, the cameras were paused, and now the truck was leaving in the dark?
My gut twisted.
“She might be in that truck,” I said. “Let’s go!”
We all ran out of the room and straight toward the main gate. My heart was racing, and my wolf was
143 Missing
howling with rage.
The guards stood at attention as we approached.
“What truck just left?” Lennox demanded.
“The supply truck, Alpha,” one guard replied. “They said they were returning some empty crates.”
“At night?” I snapped. “Who gave them permission?”
The guards looked at each other nervously.
“No one, Alpha,” another one answered. “They said they were cleared by someone inside.”
Lennox growled deep in his chest, and Louis clenched his fists.
“They took her,” I said through gritted teeth. “They used the damn truck to sneak her out.”
Without wasting a second, we jumped into the nearest black SUV. I got behind the wheel, and Lennox and Louis climbed in beside me, slamming the doors shut.
I floored the gas pedal, and the tires screeched as we sped out of the pack house gates.

My hands gripped the steering wheel tight, my heart pounding so fast it felt like it might break through my chest. My wolf was going wild inside me, clawing to get out, to run, to find her.
“Faster,” Lennox growled beside me.
“I know,” I muttered, eyes locked on the road.
The truck couldn’t have gotten far. It had only left a few minutes before we saw it.
We followed the narrow road that led out of the pack house territory, headlights cutting through the night. I drove like my life depended on it—because it did. Olivia was my life.
Then suddenly, just ten minutes into the drive, I saw it.
“There!” I shouted.
Up ahead, parked awkwardly by the side of the road, was the truck.
I slammed on the brakes.
We flew out of the car and raced to the truck.

But It was empty.
The back doors were wide open. No one was inside.
“No…” Louis whispered.
“They ditched it,” Lennox growled, kicking the tire. “They knew we’d follow.”
I sniffed the air, hoping to catch her scent, but there was barely anything–just a faint trace of her, quickly fading.
“They transferred her to another vehicle,” I said, rage burning in my chest. “They planned this.”
Lennox’s eyes glowed, and Louis looked ready to shift. Lennox pulled out his phone, his hands shaking with fear. His thumb flew across the screen as he dialed Gabriel’s number.
We all stood in tense silence as the line rang.
“Pick up…” Lennox muttered. “Pick up, damn it.”
Finally, the call connected.
“What?” Gabriel’s voice came through the speaker,
143 Missing
annoyed and half–asleep.
“Where is Olivia?” Lennox barked without preamble.
There was a pause. “What? What are you talking
about?”
“Don’t play dumb,” Lennox growled. “Did you take
her?”
Gabriel’s voice sharpened. “Take her? Are you insane? I’ve been in meetings all day. I haven’t been near your pack house.”
I watched Lennox’s face closely. His expression shifted -not relief, but something worse.
Truth.
Gabriel wasn’t lying.
“She’s gone,” I said, loud enough for Gabriel to hear.
“What do you mean gone?” Gabriel’s tone turned to that of worry. “What happened?”
“She was taken,” Louis said tightly. “From her room. Someone used a supply truck to sneak her out. The
143 Missing
truck’s been ditched, and her scent is almost gone.”
Gabriel cursed under his breath. “I swear on the Moon
Goddess, I had nothing to do with this.”
Lennox gave a hard sigh, pinching the bridge of his
nose. He knew Gabriel didn’t take her… he could sense
Gabriel’s innocence.
“Fuck!” he grunted and ended the call.
Where we stood at the dark road, I could feel our worries, our fears. Where could Olivia be? I knew she didn’t leave on her own free will because if she did, then my wolf wouldn’t be feeling this worried, I wouldn’t be having this scary feeling in my head. Someone must have taken her, and she is not in a good position. What if she’s unconscious? That is why she can’t respond to us? And to crown it all, tomorrow night was the full moon! Shit! Olivia was in trouble.
I turned to my brothers. “We… need to act fast,” I said, my voice tight with worry.
Lennox grunted and nodded. “Let’s go to the seer… we can’t waste any more time,” he said, and the three of
く
143 Missing
us jumped back into the car.
Just as I was driving, a mind link came through from
one of the border patrols. “Alpha… a helicopter… we just saw a helicopter fly past us…”
My breath hitched. I slammed the brakes.
Lennox and Louis looked at me instantly, already sensing something was wrong. “What is it?” Lennox asked, impatient and tense.
I took a deep breath and turned to face them. “I think Olivia was taken by a helicopter. The men at the border just reported seeing one fly past,” I said, delivering the blow.
“Shit!” Lennox and Louis grunted.
I didn’t say a damn word. Just turned the engine back on and slammed my foot down, the tires screeching as I tore down the road toward the seer.
