Alpha Blake novel Chapter 57

  ***present day***

   

  Third Person POV 

   

  Clattering is heard throughout the camp where Selene had left the pack. Everyone begins awakening. Little by little members of the pack begin to exit their tents and join the rest already outside.

   

  Rebecca herself is getting ready to go and talk to Selene, and ask her what their next move will be. The sun has not yet fully risen, but a few are already packing and gearing up for the battle they have been awaiting. 

   

  A few howling are heard, startling Rebecca, though she's been around wolves for so long, she still can’t get used to their sudden howls. She turns quickly and exits her small tent. "Rebecca! Selene." A guard pants, running to her side.

   

  "What's gotten into you boy? Where's my daughter? What about her?" She looks past him in the direction of Selene's tent.

   

  "She's-" He begins, and another guard along with a few warriors that stood guard at her door join them. 

   

  "Selene is missing!" They yell, making heads turn and gasps are heard throughout the camp.

   

  "What? This can't be!" She runs to the tent, harshly moving the drapes to the side. Inside the tent, a small blanket and a water canteen are the only things left. No Selene, no armor, no sword. 

   

  She gasps and turns, averting her eyes throughout the camp. She hangs her head, nervously, unbelieved, and unable to comprehend why she would suddenly disappear. 

   

  "Notify the two men she came with. Caleb and James, they may be able to answer where she may have disappeared to." She gestures to one of the guards, but they remain composed and glancing between them.

   

  "What else have you not told me?" She demands them to speak, placing her hands on her waist.

   

  "Both Caleb and James are missing as well Rebecca." One of the warriors notifies her. Her eyes widen, and her heart raises to a million per second. 

   

  "Does Christy know?" She questions and turns to the sound of Christy's voice.

   

  "I'm afraid so Becca. Now, care to tell me how in the hell, did a bunch of well-trained professionals like yourselves were unaware that our Luna and two other men were able to go past undetected by you guys? How can she have escaped without being undetected?" Christy was furious, her hand pressed against the curve of her nose and eyes closed by disbelief and disappointment. 

   

  The guards and warriors hung their heads in shame. They had failed to keep their Luna safe, as they had promised to their Alpha.

   

  "Luna, I'm deeply sorry! We-" One of the warriors responded softly. His voice was broken and near the verge of melancholy. 

   

  "Save it! We will follow as planned. I glanced through the map before Selene took it. We must go now, I know exactly where my boy is. He's at his grandpa's old cabin, just on the other side of this mountain. Gather everyone, we will move out and join him. For your safety, I hope she is with him and not in any harm's way! Or I am sad to say, I will not be able to stop my boy from what he may do to you!" She looks between them, they all glanced between themselves and Luna Christy nervously. 

   

  "Very well! Get to it. Gather the pack, and tell them we leave at once." Luna Christy informs. She turns on her heel, reaching for the hem of her dress and pulling it slightly up, and walking away. 

   

  Though many questions emerged to the quick spread of their Luna being missing, Rebecca quickly calms them down, promising everyone that she will be alright and will soon join them.

   

  They move out quickly towards the direction the guards point them. They run stealthy and at such speed, they look like blurs as they pass the many branches and trees.

   

  It's not long before they come close to the cabin. Slowly, the guards come to the front of the cabin as the door opens and they get greeted by Tyler and Blake's grandfather. 

   

  "Mom?" Tyler calls out to her as he averts his sight everywhere, startled by the presence of the pack.

   

  "Sweetheart!  Oh, thank heaven and  God you're ok! I was so worried for you. Oh, goddess thank you! My boy is ok." She hugs him, holding him tight and kissing his cheeks repeatedly. He chuckles pulling away.

   

  "I'm fine mom. I was never in any real trouble I promise. Now, care to tell me why you're here? And why do I see most of our pack with you? Including our former luna." He narrows his eyebrows, giving the guards a stern and furious look. 

   

  They hang their heads and gulp down nervously.
