Brooke's POV :

I awoke to a burning sensation in my ankles and wrists. My head was throbbing with pain and I felt like I would pass out again any moment.

I look around and I was in a place I was dreading to go back to, I thought I had been saved from this place.
I was back in the cells.
I started to panic and struggle to break free from the chains.
This was a bad idea as the pain in my ankles and wrists increased.

Without thinking I let out a scream.
I had just found happiness, I had found my mate and my brother. I had a new family. Why did I have to run away?

'Stop squirming!'

I looked around for the source of the voice. I tried using my heightened senses but for some reason they weren't working.

Wolf.

There was no answer.

'Your wolf isn't here, she went on a little... trip.'

The feminine voice let out a sickening laugh which sent a shudder down my spine.

'Who a-are y-you?'

I tried to sound confident but it was no use.

'Don't you recognise your own mother?'

Mother?
The woman walked into the dim light with a maniac smile on her face.
She was back, my nightmares had come true.

'SAY SOME THING!'

I flinched at the raise of her voice, I shuffled back trying to escape this hell.

'Y-you d-died, all of y-you d-died.'

I felt tears roll down my cheeks. She was supposed to be dead.

'Oh sweetheart we didn't die, me and your father asked for the rogues to attack.'

I stared at her in disbelief. She was the reason so many people died, so many innocent people died.

'Story time. Me and your father came to the rogues and asked them to attack our pack. We wanted to kill everyone apart from our family, but of course we wanted them to kill you.
You were never family, I'm surprised even Alistar liked you.
We all wanted you dead, you were a burden to us. You weren't even our flesh and blood.'

What does she mean?
I wasn't actually there's.

'Honey how stupid can you get?
Of course you wasn't ours, you were a rogue, we had to adopt you so our pack members didn't see us as cold hearted demons.
That's when we got the rogues to attack, we all ran to the other side of the attack. But of course little Alistar had to help you escape.'

So this means Alistar isn't my brother.
My body was wracking with sobs, how could Alistar not tell me?
I thought I could trust him and tell him anything, but he hadn't even told me this.

'Then wh-what happened t-to t-the others?'

Another sickening laugh came from the woman.

'The others. Your siblings ran away, they said I had become corrupted. They didn't get very far as the rogues got them. Your father however. He began to doubt me, he said I was crazy to get my own children killed. I soon showed him though, no one goes against me. I killed him, afterwards I then joined the rogues.'

I was speechless, she killed her own mate. She sent her own children to their death.

'I had become lonely, I didn't want to find Alistar. I heard he has a pup on the way and is getting married. I didn't want to disturb that. And then I thought, who else could I take. Then guess who popped into my head.'

I didn't want to answer, I knew who it was. I looked down at the floor not wanting to look at her.

There was a sudden tug at my hair and I was soon face to face with her.

'It was you. My darling adopted daughter.'

She cackled whilst pulling my hair even harder. A sudden burst of confidence ran through my body.

'Well guess what? I have a mate now and when he finds me you will be in for a world of pain.'

All this confidence was lost when she slapped her hand around my face.

'Don't get your hopes up sweet pea, your not even marked.'

Andy's POV :

I had been looking for over a week now, searching for my darling Brooke. I was losing all hope and I could feel myself falling into depression.

'Will you stop moping, we will find her.'

Opal was trying to sound confident but you could still hear the worry in her voice.

'This is my fault, I should have stopped Lola instead of letting her throw the insults at Brooke. Now I've lost her. I've lost my mate.'

I hadn't slept for ages, whenever I tried I just thought of Brooke. How she was like my sleeping pill, when she slept next to me I instantly felt better.

'It's no use sulking, we need to keep trying to find her.'

Sapphire and Opal were doing their best to comfort me. My brothers and Ali was on a search party.
Alicia had had her pups, they had twins. Charlotte and Stefan.

A sudden sharp pain hit me in my stomach, causing me to fall to the ground in agony.

'Andy what's wrong?'

Opal and Sapphire said in unison.
I was in too much pain to answer. My mate bond was weakening and I could tell it was Brooke being hurt.

'B-brooke...'

I tried saying in between my mass of pain in my stomach.

'Opal go and get the boys to come back, I'll stay with Andy to make sure he's okay.'

***

My pain had gone but my mate bond was going crazy. My wolf wasn't talking to me for reasons I couldn't understand.

'Zircon how could Andy feel her pain if he hasn't even marked her?'

Peridot was asking Zircon.
Zircon may be the quietest out of my brothers but he was also the smartest.
'I think it's because Brooke hasn't been taken far, she's still on our pack lands...'

'We have checked all over our lands, we haven't found her anywhere.'

Cody retaliated.

'Yes that's true but we haven't got a mate bond to Brooke, her scent to us isn't that strong. But Andy...'

Zircon looked over to me.

'Andy if you came on a search party with us we may be able to find her, even if she's not on the pack land she may be on the outskirts on our territory. Andy you will need to come on these searches if we have any chance of finding Brooke.'

It's true that I hadn't even bothered going with the search parties, I was too busy moaning at home.

'Ali, Zircon, Benji, Peridot and Logan be ready in a hour. We are going to find Brooke.'

Everyone seemed to sigh in relief that I had finally come to my senses.

Finally you are actually going to look for mate.

My wolf was back. I don't know if that was a good or bad thing.
