"Roo! Have you seen this?!" Kade said as he charged into the Alpha’s office, not giving a damn if Roo was in a eting or not.
Roo let out a breath as he dismissed his Betas.
He understood exactly how Kade was feeling. They both woke up after completing their mating only to find their mates missing.
It wasn’t even a matter of their mates being kidnapped, Helena and Rae willingly left and erased all traces of where they went.
What made everything worse was that it had been almost four months since the two she-wolves had vanished and the trail had gone dry a month ago.
They’d searched packs, human cities, and even Vampire covens to find Helena and Rae but to no avail.
The last clue they’d found was a forr mber of the old Red River pack saying he spotted them in a human city, after that, nothing.
"You should tell them to stay," Kade said as he tossed his phone to Roo.
Roo started at the photo, too stunned to fully process what he was seeing.
It was his sister, Rae with another man, an Alpha he recognized entering a hospital.
"When and where was this taken?" Roo asked as he looked up at Kade.
"It was on one of those trashy gossip sites," Kade grumbled. "It’s also all over social dia."
Roo nodded as he tried to place where he knew the Alpha.
"Any news about Helena?" he asked his Gamma.
"None," Kade said bitterly. "It’s just this photo of Rae and one of the Sunfire Alphas. Do you know what they’re saying?! They’re saying she’s mated to him and that they’re—"
"Wait, Kade, a Sunfire Alpha?" Neil asked, raising a hand.
"Yeah, that’s Victor Sunstrike, one of the—"
"Five Sunfire city Alphas," Roo recited as he looked at Neil.
"Am I missing sothing here?" Daniel asked as he looked at Romoe and Neil.
"Yeah," Roo said as he handed Kade back his phone. "Guess who lived in Sunfire city before coming here."
"The Luna," Daniel said.
"We’ve been trying to reach out to them but they never respond," Neil told Roo.
"I have a bunch of warriors stationed at their border, they’ve been there for over two months," Kade hissed. "Roo asked to put them there."
Roo shrugged.
"I’d suspected that Helena might try to go to Sunfire City, she has connections there," Romoe said as he balled his hands into a fist.
Neil raised an eyebrow at him but said nothing.
"What do you plan to do?" Daniel finally asked.
"I just want to see her, to talk to her," Roo said as he looked down at his hands. "I doubt the Alphas will let us through before the Blood Moon Ball."
"But they are obliged to let you visit during the ball," Neil said with a nod, understanding Roo’s intention.
"I’ll see her then, but before that, I need to make sure she doesn’t run," he said with a frown.
This was not how he’d envisioned his first months of being mated to go. He had been looking forward to spending a lot of ti with her in the bedroom.
"We can send warriors to monitor the exits of Sunfire," Kade suggested.
"Make it discreet, we don’t want to spook the Sunfire Alphas," Roo told Kade, glaring at him.
He knew Kade was furious that his mate was seen with one of the Alphas but his sister had the right to explain herself to Kade.
"I also have another plan," Roo said with a grin. "They won’t let in, but I’m sure they’ll let Mom."
Kade looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
"Will she go?" he asked Roo.
"For her girls, she will," Roo said with full confidence. "Let’s go find her."
He led the group as they marched out of his office in search of the forr Luna.
At first, they checked into the new house that his father and stepmother called ho with Rebecca, but it was empty.
She wasn’t in the packhouse either.
Eventually, they found Alyssa in the pack hospital with Raul and Rebecca.
"Mom!" Roo greeted, grinning.
"Oh no, I know that look," Raul groaned. "You got a lead."
Roo nodded as he waved for Kade to hand over his phone.
"Not just any lead," Roo boasted as he handed the phone over to his parents. "She’s in Sunfire, they’re both at Sunfire, I was right she was headed back."
Raul and Alyssa looked the the phone and scrolled through the article.
"This is a gossip site," Raul pointed out.
"And the article is about, Rae and her being mated the a Sunfire Alpha," Alyssa said, shaking her head.
Both she and Raul looked at Kade with a sympathetic look on their eyes.
"Where Rae is, Helena is for sure," Roo said confidently.
"And as you said, Luna, that’s a gossip site I’m sure there’s an explanation for all of this," Kade said with gritted teeth as he resisted the urge to say sothing that may hurt him and his mate.
"The Sunfire Alphas are a trusted ally," Raul said. "They wouldn’t do anything that could jeopardize the alliance."
Raul then turned to his son.
"What do you plan to do?" he asked Roo.
"I doubt they’ll let within the city," Roo sighed. "If Helena doesn’t want there they won’t let near."
Raul nodded feeling bad for his son.
"But I’ve already confird that I’m coming to the Blood Moon ball in a week, so I just have to wait for that," he told his father. "But we need to make sure Helena is there and that she’s safe. So I ca up with a plan."
Roo’s gaze went to Alyssa, who gave him a soft smile and nodded.
"Nope," Roo said as he got in between his mate and son. "You are not putting your mother at risk."
"But he’s not," Alyssa said, shaking her head. "I’ll be visiting my daughters and I’ll be bringing Rebecca with ."
