Chapter 9

A day later Electra was reading pack reports quietly in her room, Mayhem was off doing her own reading, trying to catch up on everything that she had missed during her enslavement.

Most of the documents Electra was reading were compiled by Sienna for Amy, with Amy being so busy she had little time to deal with the normal duties of the Alpha female, Sienna had stepped forward and took on most of those duties and no one begrudged her as no one wanted that job. Nevertheless, Amy had to be kept up to date with the goings on of the pack so Sienna complied daily reports on almost everything from births, deaths and everything in between.

Electra's personal phone rung, she sighed and put down the report outlining a new disobedience from Jessa and suggesting sending Jessa to an aunt in a different pack for a while. She picked up her phone and frowned at the caller id; she flicked it open and brought it to her ear. “Jeff?” She said a little confused and surprised.

She was also mentally cursing herself, she had spent a month with Jeff in Vegas chasing leads about both her sisters 'attempted' abduction and his own sister Haley's abduction. She considered him a friend and she had completely forgotten him. She hadn't called to see how he was or how his sister was coping.

“Electra…” Jeff said pleased to have gotten her.

“I’m sorry I didn’t say goodbye, everything happened so quickly.” She said as she sat forward in her chair.

“I know… my mother is glaring at me… she wants me to thank you for finding my sister.” He said hesitantly.

“Tell her I was doing my job and I’m glad she got her daughter back.” Electra said with a smile, it broadened when she heard Jeff relay her message.

“Um… that is the reason I am calling, Haley isn’t coping. Far from it in fact, she hasn’t left her room since coming home. We are afraid for her.” He explained, clearly conflicted but he didn’t know what else to do.

“Was she raped?” She asked.

“We think so…” He answered.

“What I can do to help?” she offered.

“I was kind of hoping you could work your magic on her…” He said hesitantly, he still couldn't believe how quickly Mayhem had come back to herself and he hoped that Electra could do the same for his sister.

“I don’t know Jeff… Haley doesn’t know me… I haven’t built any trust with her.” She answered.

“Can you try…?” He begged.

She stood and started to leave her room. “I will need permission to bring her here, maybe all she needs is to get away, to go to a new place that is different and doesn’t relate to her abduction.” She walked down stairs and started to move to her mother’s office.
