Calhoun's POV

"Alpha Calhoun, my daughter has been missing for three days," sobs the middle-aged woman in front of me.

"Are you sure she didn't elope with a lover or something?" My eyes narrow in their sockets.

"No, Daisy doesn't even sleep out. She tells me of her whereabouts but it's been three days and she hasn't returned home. Her line isn't reachable."

"How old is your daughter, again?"

"She's just twenty, Alpha Calhoun." Almost the same age as my mate, Kristen.

"Just return home, I'll have my men look into this and Daisy will be found," I assure her, meaning every word.

The tearful woman nods and reluctantly takes her leave, while the guards shut the doors. Leaving just me and Bruce alone.

It's been seven hours since my return and I went to the Greyhound council, especially to attend to pressing issues that have to do with my pack.

He's the guy with a buzz cut. It was by noon I arrived there but I stayed until it was evening. And by that time, I had learned the few things I needed. Because of how fast I was catching up, Mr. Rob even let me serve a few customers, something which I did without any protests.

I just rewarded them with smiles.It's past ten now, and the diner has closed for the day so I stop to drink some water.

    Kristen's POVI wake up the next morning and find myself on my bed. Suddenly, images of what happened last night flash through my brain and I can remember everything. Vomit rises in my throat and as I rush to the bathroom to throw up, I see Alpha Calhoun quietly sleeping on a couch.Shutting the bathroom door in a rush, I barf as much as I can and it's not even undigested food but water. And then I recall a pack doctor waking me up at night just to give me some drugs to help me rest. After rinsing my mouth, I wipe it clean with the back of my palm and then leave the toilet. I feel utterly weak and dizzy right now, so maybe I am hallucinating and Calhoun isn't here.But my thoughts are confirmed wrong when I see him standing upright."Kristen…" Hearing his clear and distinct voice brings tears to my eyes. Because if he hadn't shown up, I would've been raped and then murdered."Hey, hey…it's okay...no one can hurt you anymore," he leads me to the bed to sit and then goes down on his kn

    Kristen's POVAlpha Calhoun's behavior was uncalled for. I hate to admit that as much as I tried to get him jealous, I wasn't very pleased with him, seeing him look so jealous because I was with a boy I just met for the first time. Ivan, son of Alpha Landon. I wanted to send Calhoun a message, that was why I faked interest in Ivan, but I hated it. Everything I did was to tell him off because he wanted to divorce my mom for my sake. A part of me wants to be with him but the other is totally against it because my mom is in the picture. Not only I can't hurt my mom, but I'm also afraid of her, what she might do when she finds out the truth.The way Calhoun lost self-control and pulled me away from Ivan made my heart quake in my chest. I was afraid mom and everyone else would see and I found it very hot. Mostly when I deliberately called him stepfather and he yelled in my face, warning me never to call him that.How could he even do that? When mom, Alpha Landon, and his wife were just a
