Chapter 23

Spencer

I hear commotion all around me as I double over in pain. My senses are all out of whack at the moment as well but all I can think about is my mate. He doesn't know about wolfsbane and how it can be poisonous if it's ingested. I try glancing around but all I see is double of everything and I can't smell Ledger anywhere.

"Ledger, where are you? Call out to me!" I wait but hear nothing, "Ledger, call out to me!"

"Beta, he's gone, so is Alpha Declan!" One of the warriors informs me.

"What do you mean they are gone? Gone where, back to the pack house?"

"No, the Shikari took them. As soon as they blew the wolfsbane into the air, they grabbed them both and disap- peared into thin air! We had no time to get to them before they were just... gone."

"Shit! Get me back to the pack house, now! Where is Pe- ter?" I ask.

"I'm here, Beta! I'm in the same boat as you, my senses are fucked."

"Fuck! We had one job! One motherfucking job, protect Ledger and the Alpha, and we fucked it all up!" I punch at the ground multiple times, not caring that I'm cutting my knuckles all up."

"Spencer, Spencer!" I hear Cici's voice, and it crushes me that I've failed her. I feel the sparks as soon as her hands touch me, "Baby, talk to me! Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay, but..." My voice cracks and I can't finish my sentence.

"What happened, baby? Where are Ledger and the Alpha? Quinn and I can't feel them any longer."

"They took them! They blew wolfsbane at us and next thing I know, I'm on the ground calling out for Ledger but there was no answer. A warrior told me that the Shikari took them both, he said they just disappeared. I'm sorry, I'm so sor- ry that I couldn't protect our mate!"

"Shh, it's okay, baby. We will get him back; somehow, we will bring him back home."

"How? We don't even know where they are!"

"Hey," she pulls away from me, "Are you giving up on our mate already?"

"No, but..."
