My Arrogant Mate Is An Alpha Jerk [Book 2 of Alpha Mate Trilogy]

Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Fantasy To Remember

*Unedited and Sexual *

"I can't!" I huffed angrily slamming my fist down on the vanity table in the room. "I can't Veronica."

"You can," She stressed. "You have to."

"I don't know how! I can't just make the connection! I'm too far for my regular connection and I'm trying to tap into this apparent 'line' and it's not working," I cried.

"Ella, being brutually honest, you need to get a hold of yourself." She said rathered angry and serious. "This is your mother you are trying to save, nothing comes before your mother. Now, concentrate."

I gritted my teeth and tried again. I called him several dozen times. Nothing. I imagined us at the Alpha union; us captured by Erik and our moments we shared. Nothing. Not one ping.

"Is not working."

"You need to want him. Really want him." She explained.

I leaned over the vanity, hair perfectly in place, eyes a slight shade of red making my green eyes deeper, my teeth sharpen because of my frustration. I looked at Veronica through my reflection when I decided I knew what I needed to do.

"Veronica, you can go now,"

"But-"

"Your words were inspiring, I know how I would probably get Markus and understanding how suggestive I should be."

I led Veronica out and I climbed into bed, sliding underneath the blankets. I sighed and closed my eyes. I am tired from the crying and worry, but I won't be able to go to bed if my mother's still in danger.

"Here goes nothing,"

(Markus's Point of View)

I stared at the cup in front of me. Damon was to my right. Rowan to my left. They were monitoring me for the 12th hour now. Feeding me carefully, watching my every move to see if I go bat shit crazy on them. I'm fine, and after my recent events, I'm the best ever. I couldn't find Ella, I wasn't allowed. Damon, during my comatose state, commanded himself Alpha. I understand that I was insufficient for the position, and he did step down when I was back on my feet, but he was still worried. He hated that Rowan was constantly around me as much as him. He thought his chances where higher. It was. I wasn't stable. Nothing's the way it seem.

"Drink."

"I'm good,"

"Markus."

"Damon."

"Please man,"

"No. I'm fine. Not thirsty anymore." I stood and walked away. "What about the men?"

"We have made a rational decision, 3 groups will go out and find Ella-"

A panic scream broke through out conversation and rushed outside to see. A woman came rushing through the throng of men.

"What is wrong?" Rowan asked. "Someone, grabbed her!"

"They took her!" She called.

"Who ma'am? Who took who?"

"Those nasty leeches took Gabrielle. They raided her home, I can tell their dead flesh! Please!"

"Ma'am," I called out. "I will handle this, please, go home and rest."

"Find her Alpha Markus! Please! They took her!"

I was angry that this woman was hysterical even after my demands.

"Yes," I looked around. "Tyler take this woman home please,"
