ADAN STONE.

I had no idea how long I went for a run. By the time I got back to the pack house, the sun was already down, and by the looks of it, dinner had been served.

I just nodded my head at my Beta and ignored his question when he asked me if I wanted to eat. I went directly up to my suite, where I was expecting to see her.

I still had no idea what to do with her.

I didn’t want her to control me and my emotions, but I didn’t want her away

from me either.

It was just a fucking 24 hours and yet she

was giving me inner turmoil. I pushed the door open and my forehead creased when

I stepped inside and double-checked, but I couldn’t find her anywhere inside the

suite. The room looked like how we left it

this morning since I didn’t allow anyone t o clean the room today.

Soon, Beast was growling in my head. If I was not bothered by the Omega’s absence, I would be taunting my wolf for suddenly connecting with my mind. But I knew he was upset that Lucy was gone and was now fucking blaming me again. A s expected, he would only let me feel him when he was fucking mad at me. 1

‘Where’s the Omega?’ I sent Beta Collin a

mindlink as I walked out of my room, slamming the door as I exited and headed

downstairs.

‘Talk with Laira, Alpha. She can explain it better.’ Collin replied, and I wanted to curse him. What the fuck happened to let me know everything happening in the

pack, especially within the packhouse?

‘Where is Laira?’

‘At the office with me.’

‘Meet me by the stairs.’

I doubled my steps, my nose flaring. Did she fucking run away or leave?

Beast growled again. He was giving me an awful headache, and I tried to push him t

o the back of my mind, but he wasn’t giving up control. And this was pissing m

e off more.

I don’t need him right now. I needed to find the Omega. I didn’t spend money on her just so she could leave after a day. 1

I kept telling myself it was the money that was pissing me off, but in reality, I knew I fucked up and led her to leave. If she did run away, it was because of how I

treated her after I fucked her. But I kept justifying to myself that that was not my
