Sold To My Alpha Mate

ALPHA VENOM.

As the weeks continued to stretch and Maya didn’t return to the Pack, I got more and more worried. There was this gnawing sense of worry that gnawed at my insides like a relentless, prowling predator.

Sometimes I would be busy thinking to myself about the things I needed to accomplish in the Pack when the thought of her would return and I would feel a very terrible feeling in my gut as if I had been stabbed with an invisible blade. It was too much for me to bear because I needed her back, if possible, right now.

I feared for the worst because she hadn’t said anything to me since she left. She hadn’t hadn’t sent a letter, neither did she send a courier or a messenger to let me know that she was safe and sound which made me even more worried about what the problem could be. I didn’t want to imagine things but it was getting very hard for me to not think about the bad possibilities.

There was no single sign of her and each passing day only served to deepen the shadow of uncertainty that hung over me like a dark cloud and also intensify the fear that had gripped me now. I kept asking myself, what I’d the worst had happened? What if the one thing I had feared had happened to her? I had no idea how I was going to feel if anything bad happened to her.

There was no way I was going to lose my brother and lose the one person that gave me a semblance of hope almost at the same time. I knew the goddess would never let that happen, but I also knew that I had to be very realistic about the state of things.

It was very possible that something terrible must have happened and she could be out there hurting, in pain, or even dead if the worst came to the worst. I prayed it wasn’t the latter, and knew I had to go out and find her as soon as possible. The mere thought of Maya dying sent a chill down my spine. I kept reminding myself that she was an Omega despite her strength and it could be very deadly for her if she met an Alpha.

It was very dangerous outside the Pack borders and I didn’t know why she insisted on leaving when she could have just stayed and tried to find out the cause of the several things we were facing from within the Pack even though it was unlikely that our problem was from within. I knew our problem was from the outside, but I couldn’t leave the Pack.

There was no way I was going to leave my people to the dangers that the outside world carried. If I did that, I was pretty sure I wouldn’t be the Alpha by the time I was back. The Pack had many enemies that would stop at nothing until they had torn the Pack down and watched it burn, which was why I had to be very vigilant at all times and make sure that everyone was safe from the perils and harms that might be here at any moment.

I had also sworn to protect them and never leave them so there was no way I would abandon them on a wild goose chase. I’d rather die than leave them alone. If anyone told me that things would be like this some day, I would have had them sent straight to the gallows. It was indeed shocking.

I was worried, the Pack was in disarray and filled with fear while anticipating the unknown, my brother was gone after some of our enemies attacked, and now the worst had happened- Maya also seemed to be missing. I wondered if I was ever going to find her. Something had to be done immediately.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

I swore that if I managed to find her very soon, I would make sure that she was brought back to the Pack as soon as possible and I wasn’t going to let her leave again. We were going to stay here and fight our battles. I would protect her because she was the only person I had left, the only person that brought the smile to my lips.

I thought about her being hurt again and felt the fear creep its way up my spine before shattering at my back. It was really uncomfortable thinking that way and that alone told me why i had to take care of the situation in the Pack. I had sent out some trackers last week a long time after she left the Pack for her mission but they all returned a few days later to tell me that they had found nothing.

There was no single trail and she was gone, she had disappeared into thin air. I remembered how I had been heavily conflicted for the next few days, thinking about what I was going to do if she had been kidnapped together with the guard that had gone with her. What if she had been taken by rogues? I thought to myself, feeling my heartbeat so fast.

Well, I sent more trackers after that but they all came back with the same old story that did nothing rather than intensify the fear and anger that was already burning in my heart. I tried my best to dispel my efforts and tell myself not to worry but I soon found myself having countless sleepless nights because of her. This was going to be my last attempt at finding her and I was going to take a risk. I was going to send out a lot of my trackers after her to find her.

But the cons of the mission was that I would be exposing the Pack to some dangers. If the enemy Packs heard that I had sent out some of my best warriors to find a girl, I would be damned. I was pretty sure they would take advantage of the situation before I knew what was happening and would try their best to reclaim the Pack.

I couldn’t go on the mosjson alone because of how dangerous it would be, both to me and the Pack, so I was sending out the trackers alone. I muttered a prayer to the moon goddess, hoping that it worked this time and that they found her and brought her home.

They were the best trackers and ai hadn’t sent any of them on any mission concerning Maya. This was my last attempt and last shot at finding her. I hoped that it was going to work this time. Also, I made sure that I didn’t tell anyone about it because I’d been having this feeling that there was someone inside who was giving out news to our enemies.

In some way, our enemies seemed to be one step ahead of us. It seemed as if everything we had planned to use to counter their attacks was quickly thwarted and that was why we had been dealt with after their last attack left a lot of people dead. I couldn’t wait to avenge them because of the evil that had happened to them.

But it was surely going to take a lot of doing. The first thing I had to do was bringing Maya back and then gathering more forces to guard the boundaries. That night, after my trackers were assembled and waiting for me to give out the mission, I walked into the room with a map in hand. I had a guess where she might be, or rather guesses.

There were rumours flying around about who might be the Alpha that was attacking my Pack, and knowing that she was smart, I knew she must have figured it out herself and might have gone there to see if it was true. Because of the rumours, I decided that that would be the places I would sent my trackers to go. They would go there and look for her to see if they could find anything, or if we should call off the search and pronounce her ‘missing.’ I couldn’t tell, not until they were back. After they had greeted me, I went on with it.

“We need to find her. We all know how she hasn’t sent us any hint or signal that she is still alive. And I’ve been worried. So I’m thinking something bad happened. She might be in trouble or maybe even worse. But no matter what it is that I’d holding her back, we need to find her and bring her back to the Pack no matter what. She has to come back here because there are a lot of things we need from her.” I said to them, and with the way they nodded , it was clear that they all understood where I was going. Their leader stood up and gave me a wry smile.

“Don’t worry. You can count on us. Is there anything you would like to tell us about finding her. Any hint?” He asked, before sitting back.

I quickly walked to the shelf and took out the map and the scroll that I had kept there earlier. I was glad the man had reminded me about it because I’d have been damned if I forgot to tell them about one of the most important things that they were going to need.

How could I have forgotten this? I asked myself, shocked. I took it out immediately and spread it on the table before mustering a smile. I told them about the rumours going around and why she might be in one of those packs, searching for answers.

There were three circled Packs and they were close to each other, so it wouldn’t be much of a hassle going from one to the next in search of her. They were all happy after I was done giving them my own insights on how this could be done. I also gave them a strict instruction to bring her back to the pack once they found her, no matter what it took.

“She’s one of us, and we are not going to rest until she’s been safely brought back here.” I commanded, leaving no room for any sort of discussion or doubt.

The next morning, just after dawn when the rest of the Pack was still in their beds, the men set out on their mission with the supplies I had asked them to gather last night so there wouldn’t be any form of time wasting once the time to leave for their mission came. I was glad they had listened to me and had done as I asked them to. Now all i had to do was take care of the Pack, cross my fingers and hope that they would come back with her.

As I watched my trackers leave the Pack, I felt a bit helpless because what if they also got into trouble and never came back. They were on a very long journey and could meet all sorts of enemies on the way- rogues, bounty hunters and all sorts of terrible people who wanted nothing else other than to see the world burn.

I just hoped that in one way or the other, things would turn out fine. If that wasn’t the case at the end of the day, then it would be best to just give up and protect the Pack which would be the only thing I was going to have left.

I thought about her again and wished I hadn’t allowed her to leave the Pack, that I had been more insistent that she stayed by my side where she belonged. But it was too late for any sort of regrets now. All I could do was wait and hope that she came back, which wasn’t assured yet. She could be long dead, who knows.
