Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

ALPHA RAIDEN

Aurelia had successfully plastered fear all over my heart.

I didn't know Kyle well enough. Yes.

I have no bond with him. Quite alright.

If anything was to happen to Kyle, I wouldn't feel the pain but that wasn't comforting. Katie would feel it and Aurelia would as well and that is the reason I have been even more restless since I found out about Kyle's lung disease. I was scared.

"This is crazy, Raiden." Andrew blurted, throwing his hand in frustration. "I can't believe the boy is within the pack and we still haven't found him. Six days down the drain. Sox days of wasted efforts. We've searched everywhere, man. Every house has been turned upside down."

My Beta complained. He had dark circles under his eyes and his hair looked like a brush hadn't touched the strands in days. Andrew and I haven't been seeing each other for the past three days. We mostly communicated through the mind but seeing him now, it was obvious that he had been searching for Kyle restlessly.

"I can't face Aurelia and Katie. It's been two days of avoiding them, Drew. I'm ashamed of myself." I lamented to my bestfriend.

Both Andrew and I were in my pack office to restrategize since the strategy we have been using has failed to yield results. Jake was invited to join us as we needed his military expertise but he was running late which I knew was because of the search he was leading on the eastern part of the pack.

"I'm ashamed too." Andrew breathed. "I just found out my best friend has kids. It was supposed to be my chance to be the best godfather. Fuck that! I should be the happiest uncle right now but look at this mess we are in." "Did I neglect the pack that much?" I asked Andrew despite knowing the answer myself. "Was I too blinded by my feelings that I didn't focus on the pack?"

"You trusted me and a few others to handle the pack while you were healing from Aurelia's rejection, Raid. we failed you. I failed you." Andrew was the only person who hasn't blamed me for anything despite how shitty I was. He was always supportive.
