Freeing Starr✔️

Chapter 46 ~ Berserk

Leon's POV

"Don't move!"

My voice grew hoarse as I continued to scream over our mind link.

I had just managed to make it back into the Kingdom but the second I had crossed my pack border, I was instantly bombarded with a chaotic pack link and an anxious mate.

Starr's emotions hit me before anything else. I could feel her anxiety, her fear and her anger. It sparked my anxiety as I reached out and tried stopping her from doing anything rash until I got there. I needed to get there.

I quickly managed to grasp the severity of the situation and had left the car behind, immediately shifting into my wolf and speeding towards the mall. My paws kicked up dirt as I took the route through the forest, and around the housing areas.

My father and brother was already on the scene and all I could do was hope that they had the situation under control. What worried me most was that my link with Starr was fading gradually, as if she was close to slipping unconscious.

My heart was threatening to race out of my chest as I tried and failed to peer into her emotions. Even her thoughts got blocked after she took that detour. 

It was the moment that our bond completely disappeared that had my heart dropping.

A growl bubbled out of my chest as I roared over our link.

"PEACH!!!"

My power leaked out of me like a dam that had just collapsed as I pushed against everything I had to cut into the busy streets and towards the mall. People hurriedly moved out of the way to avoid my solo stampede. Wheels screeched as cars swerved to avoid running into me.

As soon as the mall came into view, I could hear the panicked screams as people rushed in and out of it. The crowd quickly stepped out of my vicinity as the dominance that rolled off of me threatened to crush them. I was beyond angry.

I growled and ran into the mall, my eyes taking in the scattered debris, glass, cracked floors and crumbling walls as I leapt up the escalators. My nose sniffed the air for Starr's familiar scent and I quickly charged in that direction.

I killed a few strays that had wandered into my path with their guns aimed at my head, blood quickly soaking my mouth and driving my bloodlust through the roof. The thought of Starr being knocked out though, kept me sane as I rushed to make sure she was okay.

I hoped she was okay.

When I finally spotted the corner I had seen her take over our link, I slowed down and started strutting over. My heart began to sink as I got a bad feeling about this.

I paused in the spot where her scent ended and looked down at the empty smoke can. I could smell the faint scent of wolfsbane mixed into the air and felt my whole world collapse.

This wasn't just a simple attack on the Kingdom. It was an abduction.

Time stood still as I stood there staring at the can. My body heat was increasing as my mind scrambled to form coherent thoughts. I could feel the moment I had decided to release all my emotions as my probably red eyes turned to the side and at the people that rapidly approached me.

It was my father, brother, mother, and a few others. My mother's hands immediately went to her mouth as our eyes clashed. Tears ran down her cheeks as she shook her head and choked out. "I'm so sorry."

Though I barely heard a word she said over my heavy breathing.

My father took a cautious step in my direction and placed a hand out as if to calm me. I had no idea why his eyes looked so wary.
