We were back at the Amber Desert pack now. Callie and Colt had both returned with us as we try to help Callie navigate around her missing mate.

Both Jace and I were non stop searching for clues on where Gwen could be, but except for sharing amongst the alliance packs a few pictures on Callie's phone... we didn't have a lot to go on.

It was like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Each day that passes we are at risk of losing Callie that little bit more.

She was spiralling, the guilt eating away at her. All this time she had left the Spear Thistle pack to give her mate a chance at a life without her, only to find out that her mate has been missing all this time.

Having been forced to reject her, she can't even feel the bond...she doesn't even know if she is alive.

I can see the guilt on her face, the pain eroding at her from the inside.

We needed leads and fast.

On top of this, Jace when not performing alpha duties, was also helping Jaxon in trying to find information on his mate.

Trying to find any information on the band of rogues that had been based in the mountains but had moved.

Was Medea with them, was his mate still part of that group...was she safe.

Jaxon headed back with his parents to the Dark Phantom pack, with an unamused Astraia. Who

tried to fight her case of returning to the woods but Kaia flat out refused for her auntie to now be

off any of the pack grounds.

In a true testament to her character, Astraia argued...only agreeing to the compromise set out by Josie. Where she would take on her cabin in the meadows, that she would make it her new home.

Josie no longer needed it, and for what Astraia needs, it was the perfect size. It just needed a new

fit out, and she could still attend meals in the alpha house when she wanted.

She kept drinking that tonic, even though Kaia refused at first to supply her with wolfsbane, I think she finally gave in. Knowing that if Astraia was found on Dark Phantom pack lands... it will put the pack at risk of an attack again by the White Moon pack.

Mum, Dad and Ares returned back to the Red Thorn pack leaving Josie and Knox

to settle in to their new titles as Alphas of the Clear Waters alone.

Ares is due to start alpha training soon but with Knox now an alpha, his training program was now up in the air for the time being. The future was still unclear but we had to keep faith in the moon goddess' plan for us all.

ugal.

With all the chaos of our daily lives, of helping Colt settle into pack life and keeping Callie feeling positive, which was a difficult task... Jace and I were able to take a break today, take some time out for us.

Just the two of us.

We were nervously waiting in the doctor's office in the hospital. The pack members had so far been good on their word in giving us a chance and the excitement of an heir on the way was buzzing through the pack bond.

I was starting to show now; older females stopping me in the day to bless the child I am carrying, to ask permission to place their hands upon my stomach.

At first I felt uncomfortable but I am used to it now, they are just wanting to touch the future...to let the

child know they are thinking of them.

With the pack behind us, I think the anxiety of a safe delivery was more pressure than I had

expected.

With just the two of us in the doctor's office, I am laying back on the bed...Jace holding my hand as he sits on the chair next to me.

He was just as anxious as me, this was our first scan and I'm so glad I waited for this moment. I didn't think it would come but I had hope...and I'm glad I didn't do this without Jace.

I can feel Jace's nerves plough into me as the door opens, the doctor walking in, followed by a nurse.

"Alpha, Luna.” He greets us both with a smile, as he moves towards the bed, turning the ultrasound machine on.

"Doctor." We both greet back, our eyes darting to one another as we both feel the rawness of our

'What's going on?

'Why would searching for 'Bianca Rayne' be a violation of the law?'

While Bianca pondered over the question, her colleagues noticed a black Bentley driving into the courtyard with two equally extravagant cars following behind.

The cars raised a cloud of dust; they were on sandy, unpaved ground after all. However, the people could not ignore the fact that the cars had consecutive plate numbers.

The workers of T Corporation stood up in unison and discreetly put away their phones. They regarded the people who had gotten out of the cars with the utmost seriousness.
