Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“Laurence you need to shift and we are going to have to drape Andrew over you for you to take to the pack hospital immediately. Be careful not to drop him and try to keep his leg elevated or as level as you can. I know it’s a lot to ask but please” I ask him desperately as he immediately nods in acknowledgment of my instruction.
“Hang on a second Nova..I can scent” Jax starts.
“Flo” I finish for him, “I know..I think she’s been taken” I cry as Laurence immediately shifts and Jax and I lift Andrew up laying him carefully on his back.
“Go” Jax orders his face etched in concern, “be careful.”
“Nova we are going to follow Flo’s scent, I’ve got 15 warriors running behind who will track us” Jax informs me motioning for me to lead.
Without having to say anything I hand control over to Kia and she immediately bounds through the trees tracking Flos scent. We run for another 10 minutes before reaching a beat down track which leaves out the eastern side of the territory. Seeing the deep tyre tracks Kia huffs in annoyance, “they’ve gone..and quickly.”
Shifting back I let out a scream of annoyance before I feel Jaxs strong arms wrap around me bringing me in close, holding a hand against the back of my head he kisses my temple as tears stream down my face.
“This is all my fault” I whisper.
“No” he says sternly, “none of this is your fault. They must be hunters, I can’t think of why any other humans would do this. Also there were no traces of her blood that I could see, I think she must have been sedated. That lady can fight there would have been more signs of a struggle any other way. So..” he says pulling back and grasping my chin to look at me clearly, “we are going to go home. Check Andrew is recovering and contact your father. Then we are going to make a plan. I’m going to contact Axel as soon as we are back and get him to hack into all the road camera in this area and we will find them, ok.”
Taking a deep breath I steady my breathing and try to stop the tears from falling, “ok..” I whisper.
Hearing the others approach we quickly shift back to our wolves as they reach us. “Gamma Flo has been taken, I want a group of 5 to follow the tyre tracks as far as you can. Follow emergency plans to update and contact and if nothing is found in the neutral territory we will notify surrounding packs. I will send a notice out to them all to notify them of what has happened and to keep an eye out anyway as soon as we are back at the office” Jax commands through the pack link to the warriors.
“Yes Alpha” the all chorus back before 5 split away and dart off between the trees running parallel with the road.
“The rest of you I want you on extra border patrol. I will be increasing patrol sizes and frequencies” Jax informs them.
“Yes Alpha” they immediately respond.
“Nova with me, let’s go back and quickly” he says knowing the longer we wait the harder it will be.
“She will be ok Nova, she is strong willed and an incredibly intelligent fighter. She took after her big sister” he links me as we set off for the pack house. “By the way..when did you learn to be so calm in a medical emergency?”
“Part of it was the elite warrior training, that and I am a qualified doctor” I admit.
“Seriously?” He asks clearly impressed.
“Yeah. There is still a lot you don’t know about me really” I admit.
“Well as soon as this is all over with, I intend to learn every little thing” he promises me as we shift and quickly throw some spare clothes on.
Jax POV:
Bursting through the packhouse doors I immediately head for the meeting room where I requested everyone meet.
“How is Andrew?” I ask Laurence seeing him arrive at the same time.
“Unconscious but stable, his Wolf is healing him and he didn’t loose too much blood, he has had to have a few stitches but thanks to Lunas quick work he will be fine” he says calmly his Beta side prominent now. “They will contact us as soon as he’s awake and I have 2 warriors stationed outside to help if required.”
“Thank you Laurence” I say as we walk in. Glancing at Nova I see her calm and collected, if it wasn’t for the bond telling me she was anxious and worried I wouldn’t have a clue.
“Ok everybody listen up, there has been an attack which we are almost positive was made by hunters. Andrew has been injured and is recovering in the pack hospital however our Gamma Florence we believe has been taken” I start as Theo let’s out a loud growl.
“I’m so sorry Theo” I hear Nova whisper as she wraps an arm around him offering comfort.
“It’s not your fault” he whispers his voice trembling with the worry he feels for his twin.
“Laurence I want you to go to my office and contact Axel, ask him to hack into any roadside cameras, CCTV etc in that area that he can and if he finds anything for him to contact us immediately” I order to my Beta as he leaves immediately to do as I’ve asked.
“I have 5 warriors trailing the tracks as far as they can, they are following emergency protocol so they have a phone for them to check in and contact us as they will be too far to mind-link. I have 10 extra wolves patrolling the borders focused on the eastern side as we speak however I want an additional 20 wolves to go join them. In case of an attack I want the rest of the warriors to be prepared, I know we haven’t had one in a long time however everyone knows what to do. Protect the vulnerable and the young, anyone who can fight fights. Theo I need you to focus, to find your sister I’m leaving you in charge of the warriors as you’re the best for the job” I inform.
“Yes Alpha” he replies his voice stronger than before.
“I want you to get two wolves, one being tracker Ellis to go back to the clearing they were taken, it’s 5 miles east you will find it if you follow the scent of blood. I want you to report anything you find as we didn’t have time to explore the area” I order Theo as he stands to leave.
“On it Alpha” he replies. As he walks past I quickly grasp his arm causing him to pause in a low tone I speak to him alone, “we will find her Theo. Put your skills to use and focus on what I’ve told you to do. I will do anything I can to find Florence” I assure him.
“Thank you Alpha” he says quietly as his eyes grow steely with determination.
“Ok Naomi, Alice I want you to go and speak to pack members. Inform them of what has happened as I will never lie to them but be sure to inform them we are acting quickly and if they have any questions then I will be holding a pack meeting as soon as possible. Reassure them that they are safe and we will protect them” I order them.
“Yes Alpha” they chorus as they stand to leave.
“Naomi before you go where is Luca?” Nova asks quickly.
“Theo asked him to escort Caroline and the warriors to the hospital, she is currently being transferred to the private room and Luca has 4 of our warriors there also which will stand guard at all times. He will meet you here as soon as it’s done” she informs us.
“He’s a good man” I tell Nova aware that her brother has taken on responsibility to aid our pack during an emergency.
“He’s an extremely worthy Beta” she says with pride in her voice, “he will do anything he can to help.”
“I need him to contact Axton and ask if they have had any suspicious activity around their pack recently. I also need to speak to the escort and check to see if they were followed or noticed anything suspicious on the drive here” I think out loud.
“I’ll link him” Nova says immediately reminding me she can link anyone she needs to.
“Perfect” I say. “Come let’s go meet Laurence and see if he has managed to contact Axel.” I stride out the door I run up the steps to my office 3 at a time.
