*** Jordan***

“Natalia…” I say anxiously.

“It’s me…”

There is a long silence on the other side and I find myself holding my breath as I wait for a response.

“How did you get this number?” Natalia growls, her voice seething with contempt and hatred.

“How do you have Nikki’s phone?”

I look over at the nervous she-wolf beside me, Nikki biting her nails anxiously as I try to find the words to explain.It’s taken me over a week to gain Micah and Nikki’s trust and even longer to find the courage to call Natalia and explain her predicament.

“I’ll explain later,” I reply, my hands shaking as they hold the phone to my ear.

“We need to talk-”

“We have nothing to talk about,” she snarls, the venom potent in her voice.

“Nat, I-”

“Do not call me that!” she spits back.

“In fact, don’t call me at all.You lost that privilege a long time ago.Whatever it is, leave me out of it.I don’t care.”

“But Christian has gone insane!” I argue.

“I don’t care about Christian or any of the Silver Crest wolves for that matter,”she snaps.

Leave me alone, Jordan.You’re good Her words sting but I persist.This is too important.

“He knows about Dakota!” I cry desperately before she can hang up the phone and she gasps, the fear evident in her voice.

“What did you say?” I sigh in relief now that I have her attention.

“He knows about Dakota.He knows you have a son, Luna-”

“Don’t call me that!” She shrieks into the phone.

“Sorry,”I mutter apologetically.

Ignoring him would seem too suspicious so I gather my thoughts quickly before answering. “Yes, Alpha?” I say into the speaker. “Do you have my mate?” He asks without saying hello. Don’t tell him the truth, my wolf Adam, warns. “Not yet, sir.She-” “You have failed your mission.” “It’s not that simple,” I explain. “She won’t even let me speak“ “Then force her to listen!” He roars into my phone. “And then what, sir?” | scoff. “Should I kidnap her?” You are walking a very fine line right now, Adam snarls.

THREE f*****g DAYS, to figure out how to get my mate back to me or I will feed you to my wolf!” That’s not enough time, Adam barks. “Sir, give me a week,” | beg. “If I don’t have her in one week, ‘l lend my own life. “He pauses for a moment before answering. “Fine.” “Thank you, sir,” I reply, nodding despite him not being able to see me. I let out a tired sigh when he hangs up, allowing my body to crash on the mattress from pure exhaustion. My heart races as I try to figure out what to do to keep Christian from searching for Natalia but I ultimately allow my worries to melt away and fall into the darkness. I awake to the sound of a knock at the door of my room, Nikki calling my name with desperation. “Jordan!! Jordan, it’s Talia!” she cries excitedly. “She texted back!” I’m up like a lightning bolt and spring to the door, nearly tripping over my jeans on the floor. Nikki wears nothing but her robe and underwear, but I ignore her exquisite figure as I take the phone from Nikki.She bites her nails as I read the text aloud. “Call me in the morning. Tell me exactly what he knows,” I read aloud, looking up at Nikki as I finish. Wasting no time, I dial Natalia’s number, pulling Nikki into the room and slamming the door shut behind her. The phone rings a few times on the other side and I pull on some jeans while I wait. “Jordan…” Natalia’s voice comes through, a bit hoarse and raspy. “Nat…I-” “Just tell me what he knows,” she interrupts me. “And how did he find me?” Knowing she will likely hang up if I don’t get right to the point, I clear my throat and answer her questions. “He hired a private investigator to track down everything about you,” I sigh. “He was able to track your flight down to Wyoming and cross referenced that with your new name.How he discovered that name is unknown to me,” I shrug.responds. “He found your public records related to the name ‘Talia Ramos’.
