Chapter 10

"It been two days now and I haven't heard from Allian, Aren't you worried about him" Luna Ina said in anger and worry.

"Let him be, like I said he just needs time" Alpha Donald said.

"I don't think so, I can feel it, something is wrong. Don't you see, Are you that heartless not to care about your only son" Ina said in anger.

"Ina!!, He is fine, why sit around and call me names, go check up on him, Ask Horace or something, don't bother me with trifle matters like this" Alpha Donald said.

"Fine, he is my son, I would check on him myself" Ina said and left, she went to Horace.

"Horace are in?" Ina asked.

Hearing Luna's voice, Horace became worried what would he do, Has she found out?, Immediately, he mind linked Allian.

"Allian your mother is searching for you, what do I do? " He asked.

"Nothing, just play along, your best friend is missing, you should be grieving and searching also" Allian said and cut off the line because Aviva entered his room.

Horace decided to do what Allian said and go with the flow. "Coming" He said and opened the door.

"Godmother!, I was just in my way to meet you" Horace said.

"Meet me, what for?" Ina said.

"Allian!!, I went to his chamber, he didn't answer me quiet unlike him, his doors are locked and he completely shut me out from his mind link" Horace said.

"He shut me out too. I have tried being rational enough, I am going to break open his doors and check what wrong with my son" Ina said.

"And I am going with you"Horace said and they left. Horace knew inorder not to get suspected, he had to join the search. Like they say when the thief helps in searching for something, you never find it.

They arrived at the door of Allian's chamber. Horace sighed, it was now, Allian's escape would be known today.

"Allian, are you in, open up. If you don't open I will be forced to tear down the door, Allian!!" Horace called but got no reply. "Am coming in" Horace said. Immediately, sounds of bones cracking was heard. Horace shape shifted and bang on the door. He tore the wooden door open with his claws. He entered the chamber together with Luna Ina.

"Allian dear, where are you?" Ina asked in pain and with a sad voice. They searched everywhere but couldn't find Allian.

"He isn't here" Horace declared.

"Then where is he, Go call Donald, call everyone" Ina said as she fell in the ground in tears. Horace left to inform everyone and in few minutes everyone was in Allian's chamber.

"Where is Allian?" Alpha Donald asked.

"I should be asking you. where is my son?" Ina said in anger and pain.

"Allian, He did speak of leaving, call the guards, Find Allian, He couldn't have gone so far"Alpha Donald said.

Every single person was searching for Allian, Pictures of Allian was sent everywhere within the pack, everywhere was on lockdown not until dey found Allian.

"What did you do to my son?, What did you say to him?" Ina asked dragging the shirts of Donald.

"U didn't go anything to him, he wanted to join the army I said No, I never planned or knew he would runaway" Donald said.

"What is so hard in joining the army, If anything happens to Allian, I would never forgive you but before that I would kill myself" Ina said.

"Nothing will happen to him, I will make sure of that" Donald said.

"You better do, Go find my son, I want my son" Ina said as she burst into tears, she almost fell but was caught in time by Donald.

"Davina, Take care of my wife, Darius, Horace let go" Donald said.

In the court room.

"Horace where is Allian?" Darius asked.

"I don't know. Wait are you seriously saying I helped Allian escape?, You should know me better by now to know that I would never put Allian life in danger, I know how dangerous it is outside, why would I aid his escape" Horace said. 'Yes, why would I aid his escape?'He thought.

"Look Horace, We all know how you care for Allian, and nobody is saying you aid him leaving, Ina, Allian is all we've got and Ina may go crazy if anything happens to Allian. What we are saying is if you know anything, have any clues, anything that can help us find Allian" Alpha Donald said in grief.

Horace has never seen his Godfather this pained. Seeing how sorrowful his parents and Godparents were, Horace couldn't help but hate himself for causing them so much pain. At this junction, Horace contemplated on saying the truth about Allian's whereabouts, Him also was worried but that would be betraying his best friend and Allian would never forgive him for that. But what if Allian was in danger now, if anything happens to Allian, he wouldn't be able to live with himself.

"Horace! Horace!!" Darius called.

"Yes" Horace said as he snapped out from his thoughts.

"Do you know where Allian is?" Darius asked.

"No, I tried thinking but I couldn't find anything" Horace said.

"Are you sure, Think Horace, you have to" Darius said.

"I have tried but I can't find anything, Am sorry" Horace said.

"It is fine Horace, you did your best, we will just hope and pray for the best" Donald said.

"Actually I think I might remember something" Horace said

"What is that?" Alpha Donald asked.

"I don't know if it will help much, but this is all I know" Horace said.

"Speak up, anything is useful" Donald said.

"Before Allian birthday, He did write up a bucket list, He wrote attend the moon bath with the commoners, which means Allian is in the pack among commoners waiting for the festival of the full moon" Horace said.

"That great, Thanks Horace. Enforce a lockdown on the pack, Search every corner, Every house, now should be left out, Allian must be found" Alpha Donald instructed to Darius and Darius left to pass the orders.

"Don't worry Horace, Allian will be bought back safe and sound" Donald said and left to check up on Ina.

"What have I done, Allian!!, This is not good, This is so not good" Horace said.

Horace returned to his room and mind linked Allian.

"Allian you are going to be so dead when you get back, K will rip you into pieces with my claws" Horace said.

"Really, is that how much you miss me, maybe I may never come back since you want to kill me that much" Allian said. "So tell me, how is the everything on that side" Allian added.

"You think I have time for chitchat. Apparently, the whole family is grieving from your disappearance, I almost got caught for aiding you but I was able to create a diversion. If you still have little love for your family and me, I beg of you to return home" Horace pleaded.

"Come on, it has just been 2 days, even Selene can't make me go home, Let them find me, if I am caught, I would return, in the meantime let me be happy and try not to get caught okay. Goodbye, I gotta go" Allian said cutting the mind link.

"Allian!" Horace shouted in anger. If a truth he regretted helping Allian.
