Chapter 3.

Titus POV.

I felt rage and pain coursing through me as I watched my beautiful mate bolt away. “Mate, we must go after her. She will be killed.” My wolf Orion roared in my head. I had to find out why she rejected her pack. From the fight I stumbled across with her father, that told me she snapped.

“I know, Orion, we will find her, but first we need answers.” I replied, not taking my eyes away from where she ran. The pain in my chest was overwhelming. I finally found my mate and she bolts. The fear in her eyes spoke volumes. She thought I was going to reject her. How wrong she was.

Releasing a roar of agony; I turned and ran back towards the Snow Moon Pack. I shifted mid-air. My large black paws kicked up dirt and leaves in my wake. 

“Mate,” Orion whimpered in my head. My heart broke for him. We will get her back. I didn’t care how long it took. We will find her and bring her home. She was my Luna.

Reaching the pack house, I shifted back, and an Omega approached me with a pair of shorts. Thanking her, I took them and put them on. I entered the pack house and staked my way to the Alpha’s office.

“Do you mind telling me what the fuck is going on?” I roared at Alpha Maximus. I didn’t care that I was in his territory. My mate, his daughter, bolted declaring herself rogue.

He visibly gulped at my fury. Good.

“Alpha Titus, let me explain.” He stammered out. I clenched and unclenched my fists. I was ready to tear his throat out.

“You better, and quickly. I need to find her.” Through gritted teeth, I snarled out. I needed to brace myself for what he was going to tell me.

“We thought she didn’t have a wolf. She never shifted at 18. So, we stripped her of being an Alpha’s daughter to Omega.” My eyes widened and Orion pushed forward, making his presence known. 

“Tear his head off. He hurt our mate.” He screamed in my head. I had to calm myself and Orion down before I gave into my instincts and killed him for his stupidity and cruelty. 

“Well, she looked like she had a wolf to me and a fucking powerful at that. You treated her as Omega because she didn’t have a wolf. SHE IS YOUR DAUGHTER!” I snapped and lunged for him. I landed blow after blow on this pathetic excuse of a father and Alpha. 

My Beta Marcus grabbed me off of him. I pushed Marcus away, snarling at him in the process. I ran a hand through my hair as his Luna burst into the office. 

“Oh my god, what happened?” she asked in disbelief at the sight of her mate. I scoffed. Where the fuck was she when he attacked their daughter?

“Your mate attacked your daughter right before she rejected your pack, declaring herself as rogue. She shifted right after that and bolted. She is my fated mate.” I spat at her. Some mother she is. She looked at me with wide eyes and her tears fell.

“Maximus, tell me this isn’t true?” she whimpered when he nodded his head and I snarled again. 

“No, I told you time and time again to stop what you were doing to her. My baby girl is a fucking rogue because of you and your stupid pride.” She slapped him with tears streaming down her face. She collapsed on the floor as sobs racked her body. Alpha Maximus goes to her and tries to touch her. “Don’t touch me. You did this. I will never forgive you for this. You are not the man I fell in love with. I hate you.” She whimpered out.

She stood and wiped her eyes, turned on her heel to face me. “Alpha Titus, I’m so sorry. Please, I will find her. I should have stopped him.” I nodded my head at her as she ran out of the office, followed by her Gamma.

I turned my attention back to Alpha Maximus. “I will inform the council about what has been happening here. You will not go unpunished for this. You attacked my mate. That in itself is an act of war.” I turned around and walked out of the office.

We left the pack house; my Beta came to me. “Alpha, we will find her. What do you want me to do?” Marcus is a good man; he is my best friend and I trust him with my life. I let out a long sigh, pinching the bridge of my nose.

“Inform the council and send our scouts out to find her. She couldn’t have gotten far.” I tell him, this is one big cluster fuck. 

“Let me out, I will find mate.” Orion was on edge, clawing in my head to be let out to find his mate. I shook my head as he whimpered and whined.

“We can’t do that, Orion. She will run. We need to tell her we aren’t going to reject her. She has suffered terribly. You saw what her father did to her.” I shouldn’t have said that because he thrashed inside my head, trying to push for control. It took everything in me to block him out, to calm down.

I walked back towards the packhouse, and a young Omega girl came to me. “Alpha Titus.” I looked down at this young she-wolf. She was pretty, maybe 16 years old. I smiled at her. 

“Yes.” She shuffled from one foot to another. She was nervous. 

“I will show you to your room,” I chuckled at her. Witnessing another Alpha attack her Alpha frightened her. My pack, the Venom Fang Pack, we are notorious and feared by many. In battle, we are savage. Unlike the treatment of wolves in this place, we treat all the wolves in our pack with respect and dignity. We value every wolf not demonised them because of status. 

I followed the timid she-wolf to my room, and I thanked her. Before she left the room, I had to ask, “Girl, what is your name?” I put on my best award-winning smile not to frighten her further.

“Laura, Alpha.” She looked at the floor. I stepped closer to her she shivered. She was terrified.

“it’s ok Laura, I won’t hurt you. You can look at me. I have a question for you?” I say to her as gently as possible. Her blue eyes snapped up to mine and a small smile graced her little face.

“Yes, Alpha, what would you like to know?” her body relaxed. Orion is watching now that he has calmed down.

“Destinee, tell me what you know about her.” She looked at me, relieved that someone was calling her by her name.

“Well, the other Omegas called her defect on orders of the Alpha. Only her parents and ranked wolves called her Destinee.” Orion and I both growled in response to the name. Her eyes widened, and she took a step back. “I never called her that. She was always kind to me. She took my punishment a few times. We helped each other out when either of us needed help. I look at her like my big sister, not my future Alpha.” 

I blinked rapidly, trying to hide the surprise from my face. “Alpha?” I asked, confused, and Laura giggled and nodded her head.

“Yes, Destinee was meant to be the first female Alpha.” She told me full of pride for her friend. I could see why, the way she fought with her father, she was a force to be reckoned with.

Her wolf was savage and the biggest female I have ever seen. She was bigger than Orion. She was beautiful. It is rare for wolves to be pure white. Her eyes, though, are remarkably distinguishable.

“It is known amongst the pack that the Alpha’s of Snow Moon are direct descendants of Selene and their wolves have abilities, but Alpha Maximus doesn’t.” I smirk at her. She was being very helpful. Not much is known about this pack, just that it’s one of the oldest.

I thanked her, and she left. I took my bag and got out my clothes. “Interesting.” Orion grumbled in my head. I rolled my eyes at him.

“Care to explain? What is interesting, Orion?” I ask as I stepped into the bathroom. I switched the shower on, needing to wash the dirt away after this disappointing day.

“It must be the females with these special abilities, otherwise Alpha dickhead would have them. Our mate is going to bring our pack prosperity and victory. The goddess will gift our pups. We are lucky Titus. We need to find her. If rogues get to her before we do, they will kill her. And the line ends with her.”

Shit, I didn’t think of that or if the rogues find out who she is, they will use her to their advantage.

This is so fucked up. We need to find her, and fast. I only pray that Luna Angelica finds her and brings to me.
