Alpha Crimson stormed into his personal mansion as his pack members avoided him in fear. There has been a murderous rage rolling off of him ever since he returned from a visit to a neighbouring province to sign a treaty.

Rumours quickly spread throughout the Province of Rowim about their future Luna's actions. It was said that their Luna ran away from her Alpha mate and even burnt down her own home so that he wouldn't be able to use anything to find her. They couldn't blame her since everyone knew that their Alpha was known for being a cold blooded murderer.

"Everyone. In. My. Fucking. House. Now." Alpha Crimson growled viciously as he mindlinked his men into his quarters.

He was wearing nothing but joggers, having just returned from a run. He couldn't get his wolf, Cerius, to shut up about him still not finding their mate. Fresh sweat glistened down his neck, sliding past his tattoos which covered his neck, shoulders and arms. One look at this beautiful bad boy and any girl would go weak at her knees.

Alpha Crimson looked into his reflection as he held a glass of scotch in his hand. There were heavy eye bags gracing his handsome features and his dirty blonde hair grew out a bit more than what he usually kept it at. Which was more of an army buzz cut but who had time for haircuts when their mate was running from them?

"Yes, Alpha" three men replied in unison as they ran into the room but kept a good distance away from their Alpha.

Standing in a straight line was his second in command Beta Zachariah, his third in command Theta Grant and his packs best tracker, Jacob.

"Any leads?" Alpha Crimson sneered as the thought of his mate running away and burning her own home down made his blood boil.

'How dare she reject us? All my life I have waited for her and she just runs off without even looking at me?' The murderous aura around Alpha Crimson increased tenfolds, making Jacob fall to his knees as he could not withstand the pressure.

Beta Zachariah and Theta Grant come from
powerful lineages so they were able to stand still. Beta Zachariah was the first to speak up.

"We apologies, Alpha. We have not been able to locate our Luna. Her rundown Honda Civic was found submerged in a lake just outside of her province. Luna must have ditched it and gotten a new one," Beta Zachariah stated before wincing when he felt his Alpha's strong grip squeezing the life out of his throat.

"You dare return to my sight without any leads?" Alpha Crimson snarled maliciously before tossing his Beta aside as if the poor man were a sack of potatoes.

"With all due respect Alpha, your mother and aunt would not appreciate you beating your cousin," Theta Grant mused aloud before Alpha Crimson turned to look at him with a murderous gaze. His eyes were completely black, indicating that his wolf was in control.

Theta Grant immediately fell to the ground and bowed his head in submission. Meanwhile, Jacob was helping Beta Zachariah off the floor.

"Alpha, we need something to work with in order to track down our Luna. You haven't explained to us what exactly happened during your visit. That may contain some clues," Beta Zachariah winced while holding the side of his stomach as he tried to convince his cousin to speak.

Alpha Crimson went back to sit on his black couch and downed the contents of his glass within seconds. As he recalled the memories from ten days ago, he found himself wishing that he'd taken the whole bottle instead of a tiny glass.

He let out a long sigh and for the first time, the three men noticed fatigue on their Alpha's face. Even when they prepared for wars, Alpha Crimson would never let his exhaustion show. He looked towards his men before finally explaining the events of that day.
