Chapter 34 Prescott
“Where were you?” | pulled her in a warm embrace. She didn’t reciprocate, perhaps she was too scared and tired after the pack run.
“| lost my way,” she yawned. “I’m exhausted. | want to sleep.”
Her eyes looked heavy with sleep and her body needed rest. She was having hard training by her father to control her powers so it made sense.
“Can you please turn the lights off?” Matilda asked after | let go of her. “Sure, baby,” | beamed at her and turned the lights off.
She drifted off to sleep and | watched my wife sleeping. Placing a small kiss on her forehead, | wrapped my arm around her waist and smuggled into her neck.
My wolf calmed down a bit after having her lose. A restless feeling surrounded my heart. She was here with me yet | couldn't be at peace.
Sleep swept over me and | held her tightly, afraid that | might lose her again. “Alpha,” Caleb woke me up. “Alpha, please, wake up. Do you know where is Luna? She is not present at her training.” | immediately sat on my bed, sleep disappearing from my eyes. “What? No. Check the CCTV footage.”
“| have checked everything and asked all the guards who were patrolling last night but no one has seen her,” he told me, wiping the sweat on his forehead.
“Summon all the maids and start investigating all the pack members,” | ordered, getting out of my room. Caleb nodded his head and went to ask the pack members. | looked at the maids who worked in my apartment.
“If anyone saw your Luna last night after the pack run, let me know right now if | find out later that any of you lied, I'll make sure to punish you which you'll remember till your last breath,” | threatened them.
My wolf was getting out of control. His restlessness was driving me insane.
“No, Alpha. We didn’t see her after the run,” one of them replied. The rest of them kept their heads lowered, not daring to meet my raging eyes.

“You're dismissed. Call Serena, lvy, and Mia,” | ordered one of them who bowed to me before leaving.
She seemed distant to me after returning from the pack run and her sudden disappearance from the run.. Was she trying to find a way to escape from here? My wife had escaped from me again. | kicked the table in frustration and let out a loud growl.
The girls entered the hall in their night suits. They looked petrified and | couldn’t blame them when | was pacing the hall like a raging beast.
“What happened, Alpha?” Serena questioned in a low voice. “Matilda has escaped,” again, remained in my mouth. | clutched my fists behind my back. “No, she can’t escape. She must be abducted by Liam or any rogue. She loves you,” Ivy was quick to respond.
“| hope you're right because if she escaped from me again, I'll make sure that she will never be able to escape from me again. I'll find her from fu*king hell. No place in this entire universe can keep her hidden from me,” | growled, my Alpha aura seeping out of
1.mce. Mia started sobbing in fear so | controlled my aura and dismissed them.. Serena didn’t leave. “Can | suggest something, Alpha?”
| nodded so she continued, “You should ask Avery. She is born with wisdom and impeccable knowledge. She might be able to help you find our Luna.”
“Thanks, | appreciate your concern.” | immediately descended the stairs and reached the second floor where Matilda’s family was staying.
| knocked on Avery's door. She growled in frustration before opening the door. Her sleepy eyes told me that she wasn't involved in her escape.
“Your sister is missing,” | told her coldly. “Do you have any idea where she might go?” “What?” She exclaimed, her eyes widened in shock.
“I'll destroy every fu*king thing, Avery. | want her,” | told her, raking a hand over my hair. It was making me go crazy and | hated the fact that | was doubting on her that she might have escaped from me.
“Calm down,” Avery offered me a glass of water which | gulped down in one go.
She sighed before opening her mouth, “My wolf is under a shifting transition phase so I’m not able to use my powers but I’m pretty sure that you'll find her. I’ll come with
your 24

to track down her or my Uncle’s scent in case, he abducted her.”
| got out of her room and found Phoebe eavesdropping on our conversation. Phoebe was the one who hated Matilda in my pack so she might have her hands in her abduction.
| mind-linked Jericho to come here to take Avery on the pack boundaries as | needed to deal with his sister. “Grow up, Phoebe,” Jericho scolded her after | told her what his sister did.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
After Jericho and Avery left, | grasped her elbow and dragged her to the hall. “Tell me the truth, Phoebe. Do you have your hands in this?”
“What? What happened?” She asked innocently, licking her lips seductively. | couldn't believe she was trying to seduce me at that time.
“Drop your fu*king act,” | tightened my grip.
“| heard your angry voice so | came to listen but | have nothing to do with Matilda’s missing,” she promised me, tears brimming in her eyes.
“Let her go, Prescott,” Dad demanded and | grunted, letting go of her. “Control your anger, Prescott. You can’t lose your shit right now. Matilda needs you and you will have to find her so come back to your senses, son,” Dad guided me.
He was right. If | lost my control, no one would be able to stop me from destroying everything. My wife needed me so | had to get my shit together for her.
| called Ken to find out if Liam had abducted my Luna but he denied it. Ken told me that Liam hadn't left their pack for the past one week. He was spending all of his time with his mate. The bastard was enjoying his fu*king life while | was missing my mate.
If Liam didn’t abduct her, then, who?
‘Come to the unpaved road into the woods,’ Jericho called me. ‘Avery has tracked Luna’s scent down.”
After sprinting towards the woods, | found Avery along with my men. She had a guilty expression etched on her face. “| can sense the witchcraft in this area,” she pointed towards the road. “Matilda’s faint lavender scent is strong on this path.” I
“A witch?“dn’t believe that a witch dared to come to my pack.
Wait. Dylan Kane. He was the only witch | knew and he wanted Matilda so it made
f&
sense. The fu*ker made his move like a coward he was.
“Dylan Kane,” | muttered through gritted teeth, “I'll fu*king kill you.”

“Kane?” Avery was surprised, fear enveloping her. “He is the witch King. Kanes are the royal witches and since the last King died a decade ago. Dylan Kane must be his son.”
