Lucian
'This is crazy! I should have never listened to her.' I chided myself, but it was of no use. She was gone.
"Alpha, we lost the chopper," Damon said somberly.
I could feel my nails digging into my palms, I was gripping my hands so tightly. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
"Do whatever you can. Follow all the clues and find her." I managed to mutter.
"Alpha, we have a request."
I raised my head to find Kyle and the guards bowing their heads in submission. My wolf growled. He wanted to rip their heads off, for failing to protect my mate.
"What is it?" I asked impatiently.
"We....we....don't deserve to live. Please forfeit our lives." Kyle fumbled.
I wanted to do that, but these were some of the best betas and warriors. Killing them now would achieve nothing.
"I don't have time for dramatics. Get out!"
"Alpha..." They whimpered.
"GET OUT! " I yelled, that sent them running out of my office.
My wolf went into a rage and destroyed the table in seconds. I then went around the room trying to find out what had happened. I picked up Alice's phone and watched the video of Max. So, this is how they forced her to leave.
Alice was too kind to let anyone die because of her.
I called Rick and Daniel and told them the situation, not just for their help, but to keep myself calm.

Alice
I woke up lying on a bed. Which was an improvement over my previous two kidnappings. This time I was on a bed. I was thankful for that because my head throbbed, and I wasn't certain if I could stand being on a hard stone floor. I was still dressed, which brought another rush of relief. From what I had heard from those rescued women, these rogues were not kind and didn't waste any time in violating them.
Since I wasn't tied. I mustered the courage to stand up and try to take in where I was.
It was just a room with almost nothing in it apart from the bed. The air smelled musty, mixed with the scent of several rogues. It looked like I was underground, which explained why I couldn't contact Lucian.
"Well Hello there!"
I jumped and scrambled back. The sight and the smell of that man were so repulsive, they could have sent even the most hardened wolves running.
"Who the hell are you and what do you want?" I yelled.
He stepped further, and I was on my knees, ready to attack.
"You look just like her," he said wistfully.
I narrowed my eyes, so this was that psycho Stuart. Lucian had told me all about his obsession with that Alpha girl. If I played my cards right, maybe I could escape this place or at least alert Lucian.
"What do you what?" I asked.
His face was so disfigured, it was hard to keep looking at him. Perhaps, he was aware of his predicament; hence he was dressed in a long flowy robe with an attached hood which kept most of his body concealed.
"What could any man want from a woman like you?" He mocked, his face twisted into what, I assumed, was an attempted smile.
"So all this while you were after me?"
"Not initially," he seemed to relax a little," you see I am a scientist. I have dedicated years to trying to perfect the genetic makeup of humans and werewolves. You asked what I want? I want world peace. With all species living together in harmony under me."
I snorted. " You must be expecting a Nobel Prize as well?"
He looked annoyed but ignored my jibe.
"So, I experimented....a lot. But then I realized I would need something more. An Alpha blood."
