Chapter 69: Missing Drexel POV

Freya was sitting at Kiev's place with a glass of wine in her hand. She looked at me and wiped her tears. "So what have you decided?" she asked, getting up from the couch. She looked distressed and angry, which was natural

"Where is Kiev?" I asked, surprised that he wasn't here to console his sister

"He has gone for some work," she replied and walked to the bar to pour wine for me. She gave me the flute of wine and repeated her question

"What have you finally decided?"

I placed the flute on the table and sat on the

sofa. She sat across me. I said, "T will give you the proper check of two hundred thousand dollars, if that's what you are asking for."

Her eyes widened with a shine. The grumpy expression from her face melted away. "Thank you so much!" she exclaimed

"What will do with that money?" I asked, lifting the wine glass

"I told you already. I am investing that in a new firm. In fact, as soon as you give me the check, I will leave and return in a week's time. After that we can marry!" she rasped

I swirled the wine in my glass. She said as if I was desperate to marry her, but something inside me changed. I was hoping that she would stay back, giving me a reason to consider her, but she wanted to leave with the money. "That's

fine," I replied

"No, Drexel," she said. "I know that you are angry with me, but what have I done. All I ever wanted was to increase your pack and get more Alphas to submit to you. You must see that the human girl is making you weak. And you can't succumb to any weakness now. You have to be strong. When I will come back, I will have a long talk with her. If you like we can send her back to the human world where she belongs."

I didn't like what she just said and a growl rumbled from my chest

She corrected herself immediately. "Or you can

use her as your breeder. You can always use her when you have to take your steam off or when I

am not there."

I dug the pocket of my jeans and gave her the

check. "See you in a week's time," I said

There was a gleam in her eyes when she saw it

She grabbed the check and chuckled. "Whatever decision you have taken, I can only say that it is good for both of us!" She got up to hug me and I couldn't wrap my arms around her. I nodded and left her apartment. Kiev hadn't come still. Not that I cared

When I reached my apartment, I saw that Penelope hadn't come. My anger flared. The little human loved to give me a chase. I was going to upstairs to the attic, haul her on my shoulder, slap her butt and get her back to my apartment. After that I was going to shackle her in my room!

Before leaving, I called Leo and said, "Keep a watch on Freya. She will be leaving with a check of two hundred thousand dollars. I want

you to follow her."

"Yes Alpha," Leo replied. "I will send a team of gammas after her."

"This should be discreet." "Yes Alpha!"

After that I rushed upstairs to the attic, feeling excited, angered, like a wolf. I wanted to pounce on my little feisty mate and forget the world

However, when I reached her room, she wasn't there. Every muscle in my body strained. Where was she? I rushed downstairs towards the bathrooms and saw that even they were empty

Panic bubbled in my chest. I stabbed my fingers in my hair and hurried to the kitchen, hoping to replace her there. It was past midnight and I wondered if she was hungry. She wasn't there

either. The kitchen was shrouded in darkness which meant that there was no one inside

Where the hell did, she go? I had specifically told her to come to the apartment in ten minutes

It had been half an hour and she hadn't come

So I rushed back to my apartment, thinking I might have missed her. I checked every room, every corner and balcony, but she was nowhere to be found. Panic blasted in my chest. Growing restless, I rushed downstairs taking the stairs because I didn't have the patience to wait for the elevator

A few gammas were patrolling the packhouse

"Did you see Penelope?" I asked them

They shook their head. "No..."

Fuck

Surprisingly, I picked up her scent in the foyer of the packhouse and followed it. It led all the way to the cabin. My wild heart calmed a little and I opened the cabin's door. "Penelope!" I shouted angrily. There was no response "Penelope, if this is a joke, then it is a very bad joke," I grunted, thinking of every possible punishment to give her. Still there was no response

I rushed to check every room, but she was nowhere. Now I was beyond panicky. Where the hell did, she go? I opened my mind link with Leo and Eric. "Find Penelope!" I shouted through my mind link to them

"Wh- Why?" Eric said

"She is missing!" I blasted him

For the whole night, I went berserk. I shifted into my wolf and searched for her. My guess that she would be with Kimberley was also wrong because even Kimberley wasn't in her room. Leo checked on her duties, and found that she was not present for her duty either

Something inside me dug like thorns. Did the girls escape? No! That couldn't be. I pushed myself harder to replace them. I walked around my pack to pick up her scent, but there was nothing

When I came back to the packhouse in the morning, I felt like I would collapse. My mate was missing. There was no clue about her. I was leaning against my bedroom's door, looking blankly towards the bed when my phone started ringing. I picked it up immediately

"Where is she?" I grunted

"We picked up her and Kimberley's scent in the

south border," Leo reported. "Tt seems they have both escaped."

My hand went to my chest as a sharp pain stabbed me. I slid down the door. "When?"

"Tt was last night but we also found-" there was a pause. "We found Alpha Steven's scent too..."
