Chapter Five- Chase

I call in a meeting with my beta and a few of my best men. I am sitting behind my desk in my office and look right at my beta before I speak. “Has your mate settled in?”

He smiled, “Yes, she is all moved in.”

I am happy for my beta. It is always a gift to find ones fated mate. I nod, “Good.” I sighed and finally addressed what is on my mind. “I need you to do some research for me. I need you to find anything you can on a woman named Amethyst. Last I saw her she was about seven years of age, and I was only twelve at the time. She was from the Blood River pack. I need the information asap.”

“Yes, Chase I will get right on it. Do you know her last name?”

I sigh, “I do not. But she has auburn red hair and brown eyes.”

He nods, “I will look into this and get back to you as soon as I find anything on her.” Then he cocks his head to the side, “Do you think this woman to be your mate?”

I nod, “There is a possibility of it.”

Kyle, smiles, “I really hope she is. You deserve to have your mate.”

I nod, as he stands to leave. ‘I really hope so.’ I say to myself thinking of that dream. Either way what that man is doing to his mate goes against the code of all wolves. I don’t care who it is. He must pay for his crime against her.

Later that day I was working out at training when I stopped as I saw Kyle walking towards me a folder in his hands. I meet him as he stops and says, “Her name is Amethyst Webber.”

I frown, “Webber?” I shake my head, “I know that name. They came to visit my father for a meeting. Mr. Webber is the beta for Moon River.”

Kyle cut me off, “Was.”

“Was?”

“Was the beta. He and his wife were killed in a traffic accident about ten years ago. They were heading back from here.”

“The meeting that I remember.” I feel bad for Amethyst’s loss. “Any more info?”

He nods, “After that, her rank was lowered to omega and subjected to serving the house as a slave. She was beaten and abused.”

My hands tightened beside me as my claws extended into my fists. That beautiful child I witness dancing and feeling carefree in the backyard as I watched subjected to slavery. I felt so angered I wanted to punch something. “Is she still in that pact?”

“I don’t know, This was all there was on the girl. There was also this.” He hands me a photo and it was a woman with a sad expression on her face as she stared into the camera. The same woman from the dream.

I take the photo. “Thank you. I want you to take Sam and any other with you and go to the Blood River pack and see if you can locate her. Ask around. See if she is there, or if she had been transferred to another pack.”

“Yes, my Alpha,” He bows and turns and walks back to the packhouse.

I walk back to my opponent for more training. I need this now. I need to hit and fight even if training. My mate being abused and used makes me angry. I know she is the one. Why the Goddess had mated her to someone cruel was beyond me. She needs to get released from his bond before it destroys her.

I don’t understand the Goddess’ plan, but I must trust in her and believe that Amethyst and I will be together.

A couple of days later. I was beside myself. All I did was train, pace, and wonder. Just when I might go berserk, Kyle comes into my office, “Well?” I demanded.

He shook his head. “No one seemed to know anything. I did leave some cards with my name and number just in case by chance someone might know something.”

I sigh running my hand through my black hair. “I hope someone calls. I need to find her.”

“I sympathize. If it were my mate I would be just as desperate to find her.”

I stop pacing and turn to look at my best friend. I nod, “Thank you, my friend.” I sigh, “Go on. Go to your mate. I am sure she will be happy you are home.” I smile at him.

He places his hand on my shoulder and squeezes, “I promise, we will find her.” Then he turns walks out the door.

A few agonizing days later, My beta flies into my office and hands me his phone. I look up at him puzzled. “You are going to want to hear what this woman has to say.” He tells me as I take the phone to my ear.

“Hello? This is alpha, Chase.”

“Alpha?” I hear a woman whisper on the other line. “I found your beta’s card after overhearing him ask about my friend.”

“Your friend?” I ask.

“Yes, she is being tortured by her mate and our alpha.”

“Your alpha? He is an alpha and mistreating his mate?”

“Yes.” I hear a sobbing on the other end. “No one likes this alpha he is mean to all the lower staff. And now he hurts my best friend, Ammie.” She says through tears.

“Ammie?”

“Amethyst. Ammie is the nickname I call her. I need to know why you are looking for her?”

I was not sure if I should reveal anything to this woman. I don’t even know if I can trust her. “How do I know you are telling me the truth?”

“Here.” I hear a few notifications coming through on the phone and look to see what she sent. It was pics of Amethyst and one pic of Amethyst and another woman smiling into the camera.

“The last pic is Ammie and me. As I said she is my best friend and I want her safe.” She sniffled, “Are you going to tell me what you want with her?”

“I believe I could be her second chance mate.”

She gasped, then her voice sounded relieved. “She deserves to be happy. Please do what you can. If you need me or my mate to help, call my number.”

“I promise you. I intend to do whatever it takes to get her out of there.”

She whispered even more, “Thank you.”
