It was early the next morning, a very odd occurrence for the Alpha of L.A. who liked to wake up on his own schedule in the late morning or even afternoon. This was always true, except Colby didn't go to sleep last night at all. Despite how Sam begged him, curled up around him as the big spoon, there just was no getting the Alpha to sleep.

Colby spent the following hours after watching the clip and calling Amber, hoping she would pick up. He left hundreds of voicemails and messages, but he was careful. He didn't know if her phone was tapped and so he kept the messages discreet, carefully mixing in his Alpha tone as he sent the messages. But Amber never returned them.

The next person he had to talk to was a fellow Alpha, Youtuber, and close friend-- David Dobbrick. Colby reasoned that if anyone knew anything or could help in any fashion-- David could. When Colby called him, David was already up and he, too, was trying to gather as much information as he could about what happened. David didn't know Amber and he kept calling her a security risk, which bristled Colby's fur. Amber was a friend! Not someone resorted to the end of the supernatural world!

Goddamm security risk my ass, Colby wanted to curse.

Colby ignored David's words, thinking of the other Alpha's point of view on this all before asking if they could meet and talk. On the other end of the line came the voice of David's mate, Liza, who practically ordered David to tell Colby to bring Sam... as if Colby wouldn't bring his mate. Colby laughed, promising he would to the frisky Alpha's Omega. The two Alpha's agreed to meet up at Cobb Estate this morning, knowing that neither of them would go back to sleep. It was also a perfect location for four YouTubers to have a reason to be there while being discreet.

It was still pitch black out when Colby pulled Sam out of their bed, urging his mate to get dressed with the promise of a Starbucks stop before heading to Cobb Estate. As the pair grabbed their coffee drinks, Colby's phone vibrated. Pulling it out with the hope that it was Amber, his hope was quickly diminished at the sight of Aaron messaging him instead. Colby placed his phone down in the cup holder. If it was an emergency, Colby knew that Aaron would have called instead and the others as well. Colby assumed it to be about a vision Aaron had at the sudden turn of events with Amber and Colby would call Aaron back to discuss what he saw. Though, the Alpha wouldn't deny the anxiety he felt at hearing whatever his pack Omega Seer saw.

"Was that Amber?" Sam asked from beside him, nursing his coffee latte.

Colby shook his head, "Just Aaron."

Sam hummed in acknowledgement, but he never tore his gaze from Colby. He was extremely worried for his mate and could see the dark circles already appearing under his eyes. Sam just wished Colby got some sleep last night and hadn't sat on the sofa calling a hundred people all night.
