A Solution

Liam's P.O.V.

Vanished.

Mai was gone.

The second she disappeared with Eldur, my body moved before my brain even processed it. One second, I was frozen in shock—the next, I was sprinting, feet pounding against the cold marble floor.

My heartbeat thundered in my ears, drowning out the gasps of startled pack members as I shoved past them.

I needed to get to the Alpha. Now.

The hallways blurred around me, but I didn't stop. Couldn't. Every second wasted felt like another step further Mai was being dragged away.

By the time I reached Alpha Lucian's office, my lungs were burning, my breath ragged. I didn't bother knocking. I just shoved the door open.

The room fell silent.
