“Yes, she abandoned her family for her mate, who was a member of my pack. I didn’t know whose daughter she was when she was presented to me. Anyway, they both ran off together after robbing him and then me.” he tells me.

“He agreed to cover my debt if I returned her. But when I couldn’t, he filed for sole ownership over the contracts my father and he had shared for decades.”

“So you have no clue where they went together?” I ask him. He shakes his head. “I thought her parents were hiding her at first, trying to double dip to get her back and the payment. Until I went there.”

Plus, given her status as his daughter, she would have had a target on her back. Being an Alpha’s daughter, too, he would have been none too thrilled to learn his daughter’s mate was a typical wolf.

“Of course,” I reply. “It’s been received. I’ll be there.”
