Chapter 0252His later nights within the office seemed to have been reduced, and now I cannot help but wonder if
that was to give him time with the beautiful Bailey. After all, they were both residing in the
packhouse together. Had they become close, and now he had allowed himself to open his heart to
another, she was so close to being cruelly ripped from him? No. I cannot allow that to happen. Not
after the pain losing Isla had caused him.
‘Thor, we need to find that girl. For Ash. Now!!’ I ordered my wolf. Determination rushed through me,
which my wolf had to have sensed as his pace only seemed to have picked up.
‘I know, dumbass.’ He grumbled, like he did not appreciate my snappiness. But I was so desperate
now to find her. And the more our wolves scooted between the many trees within the darkness of
the forest, there seemed to be no trace of Bailey. Was Marc sure it was here she had headed? My
mind filled with the possibilities of what the rogues could have done to the poor girl if they had
singled her out to get her alone, and it was not pleasant… if Asher’s theory was right, and they had
been sent by her former mate to kidnap her, we may stand no chance of finding her…
‘I think they may have already got her, Cal.’ Asher linked, and I could already detect the defeated
tone to his link. No, we could not give up. We had to continue to look. She still had to be here. She
was a strong wolf. I had seen her running a number of times, early in the morning before work.
Eden said she trained twice a day too, though with a Beta for a father that did not surprise me.

would have sent them, and already able to detect their scent in the forest ahead of us.
‘Yes. But why can we not find her?’ he grumbled. He was slowly losing hope. But I knew why. Isla
had been his everything and when he lost her it had changed Asher forever. The happy, go-lucky,
and carefree guy I had grown up with was gone. The joker of the pack left with his mate. He
changed overnight, and it hurt me to see that change. Only through support and the inner-strengthof Asher nd his wolf did he survive. But, I truly do not think he could survive it again. Not when it had
taken him so long to even contemplate opening his heart to another.
Suddenly, Thor skidded to a halt, his nose was in the air, and as he tilted his head to the side, I
could catch a glimpse of Zion at his side doing the same. They had detected something…
And soon they were off again, at a slower pace, noses down, side by side. As close as brothers, like
Asher and me… and as they turned the corner there was a bloodied Bailey laid on the forest floor.
With not a rogue in sight. Which made no sense with regard to Asher’s theory, something clearly
panicked them… or did they break their allegiance to the upcoming Alpha? But right now that was
irrelevant, we needed to help Bailey… And Asher had already shifted, and was on his knees next to
the wounded body of the woman he loved, tears in his eyes…
