Chapter Twelve

“What do you mean, she’s gone?” Michael roared and paced Hunter’s office.

Brayden stood behind the Neta, just to his right, as was his place as Pride Beta. Uncle Uzzi was looking worried in his seat in front of his desk with Jessica holding his hand. The two of them had been in Jessica’s Closet, waiting for Kylie to finish changing her clothes, so they could come over and help with the final setup for Elissa’s baby shower, that was to take place in just an hour.

They had all been working hard to make the event a special one for the heavily pregnant Nari. The Alpha fem had not been told of the events and he understood, after all, her condition was delicate. And yet, he could not control the way his beast snarled and snapped, feeling as though he were breaking in two.

His mate was missing, and he didn’t have a clue why or where she’d gone. The others looked at him strangely. They did not understand, but Michael knew Kylie. She would not leave him, especially not after last night.
