Chapter 107 Alpha’s Remorse

“Tell me again, Everything,” Adam growled impatiently as Allen finalized the orders

that Adam had already sent out and arranged additional resources.

He was incredibly efficient as he simultaneously linked members of their own pack

and made phonecalls across the city to call in favors from their allies in an effort to

gather more information.

Title of the document

Ann’s disappearance was a huge deal and Adam somewhat blamed himself for her

disappearance. If he had been able to reign his wolf in a little more, then perhaps she

wouldn’t have left today in such a hurry. Perhaps it could all have been avoided.

Lexi rolled her eyes impatiently as she paced and threw him a withering look that

should by rights have turned him to a pillar of salt.

“Listen, fluffy, I Appreciate you trying to rationalize and look for clues in my brief

interaction with her whilst she was taken, but the minuscule details that exist in that

short exchange won’t change, however many times I recount it.”

Adam snarled in irritation at her att*itude towards him, as if he wasn’t trying to find a

solution. Ann was his Luna. She was his in every sense of the word and it was his

duty to protect her.

Twice in one day, it seemed as though he had failed to meet the standards required

as both an Alpha and a mate. The fact that they were contracted as mates didn’t

change his obligations within the relationship, nor did it change Ann’s.

Lexi snorted at Adam’s temper and raised her eyebrows challengingly at him.

“I suggest you wind your trunk of a neck in, little Alpha,” She purred menacingly as

Adam’s wolf growled at her tone, “I came as soon as I exhausted all of my resources,

which aren’t that many as an abandoned hybrid you know?”

“Does your father not have any leads? Can he offer any help at all?” Adam snapped

mindlessly, running his hands through his hair in frustration as he paced backward

and forwards.

“Funny you should ask that actually, I popped to see him right before I was due to

have coffee with Ann, it’s actually why I was running a little late. He is insanely busy at

the minute you know, with him being a Daemon Lord and all that. There’s an absolute

mountain of f*uc*kery going on in his realm, particularly with a couple of rival lesser

daemon factions fighting over scraps of land down there but that’s irrelevant right

now.” She said, wagging her finger thoughtfully as she spoke.

Lexi paused mid-stride as she noticed Alien’s formerly friendly gaze trn to one of

suspicion as he looked towards his Alpha for rea*s*surance.

“Oh for goodness sake Beta-boy, really? I’ve been Ann’s best friend since we were

children and now all of a sudden because my parentage has partially been revealed,

you suddenly question my motives?” Lexi snorted as Allen scowled at her.

“It wouldn’t be the first time that a daemon spawn has played the waiting game to

wreak havoc…”

“Oh go s*ck a d*ic*k you little furball, it might loosen the one stuck in your arsehole.”

Lexi hissed with her little fangs bared as she snarled at him, her eyes blazing a furious

red.

“Allen, enough. I’ll vouch for her with my life if needs be. Stand down on this line of

thinking.” Adam commanded firmly, leaving Allen no choice but to nod his head and

continue his work with a sullen expression.

No matter how long they had worked together, or how close they were, there was no

possible way he could defy a direct order from his Alpha, without putting his position at

risk. For now, he would maintain his silence and see where this half-breed would lead

them.

If she chose to lead them down a path of deception, then he would take great delight

in exacting a torturously slow and excruciatingly death on her.

Lexi glowered dangerously at him for a second longer before she turned her attention

back to Adam.

“As I was saying before the douche-canoe interrupted us with his bigotry, Papa has

actually made a little headway in what was discussed previously, and in all honesty, I

think it might be relevant to Ann’s disappearance.”

Adam perched against the edge of his desk with his arms folded as Allen excused

himself to finalize a few things in person and arrange supplies.

“Go ahead, I’m listening,” Adam said as soon as the door was shut securely.

“Well, you really aren’t going to like it. I was hoping that Ann would be able to help me

in breaking this to you…” Lexi said, her bravado suddenly wavering as she looked, for

the briefest of moments uncertain.

“Lexi…” He growled warningly and she held her hands up as she took a deep breath.

“Okay fine. But don’t rip my head off,” She muttered angrily before tossing her hair

back imperiously and fixing him with a determined look.

“The curse that was placed on you as a child, the signature and scent left by the

magick was incredibly familiar to my father but he struggled to recall just where

exactly he recognized it from. With a life as long as his has been, sometimes it takes a

while to figure things out in his memories, especially innocuous little details like that.

However, he’s one hundred percent certain that he knows who is responsible for it

now.”

Adam froze, his heart beating wildly as he processed what Lexi had said.

“Wait… you know who did this to me?” He murmured in disbelief, before shaking his

head slightly, “That… okay that’s great, but how is this related to Ann?”

Lexi snorted contemptuously.

“Oh Adam, how could it not be? You were cursed by one of the Ancient Daemon Lords

themselves, or at least by one of his chosen.”

Adam stared blankly at her face, more than a little stunned.

“What? Why? What the hell would a Daemon Lord want with a wolfless child?!” He

protested numbly, struggling to wrap his head around it.

Lexi shrugged nonchalantly.

“f*uc*ked if I know, little Alpha. However, what I do know is that it just so happens that

both he and my father have never particularly seen eye to eye. I think it’s a safe bet to

say that their rivalry is anything but friendly… it seems pretty deadly in all honesty.”

She grimaced before her expression returned to a mask of seriousness once more.

“We can discuss this in depth once Ann is safe, but for now, we should a*s*sume that

he is involved in her disappearance in some way, because as far as the outside world

knows, you are both fated mates, and the disappearance of your Luna would be a

devastating blow to any powerful Alpha, especially one who no longer has access to

his wolf.”
