Chapter Twenty-Six | Death Is In The Air

Daniel's P.O.V.

Sweat was rolling down my back was my breath was accelerated to the point that I thought I might faint. I was exhausted, to say at least, and that says a lot considering I am a wolf, and we naturally have more stamina than a human.

My search for Lana was fruitless. I had been to every single place I could think of. I needed to gather my thoughts, and the only way to do that was to calm down. So, I went home looking for the only person who could calm me down, at least a little bit.

"Jack, Jack, I need to talk to you," I shouted once I was home. No response. "Jack, Jack, this is not funny," I shouted getting a little stressed. "Jack!?" my tone was desperate now.

I quickly ran around the house, but I didn't find Jack. After my second round, I ended up in the living room. He was gone too. Desperation clung on my heart. I wanted to go looking, but I didn't know where.

Both my mates were gone. The realization hit me so hard that everything felt heavy. My body was too tired to keep me standing. I ended up dropping to the floor with my head in my hands, wanting to cry.

'Don't cry, Daniel. That isn't going to fix anything. Just calm down,' I told myself.

Suddenly, a pack mate spoke through the mind link. 'Alpha, we're under attack on the north border.'

'What!? Can you see who it is?'

'We think it's the mafia.'

'I'll be there as soon as possible.' I gripped the couch and willed my emotionally and physically tired body off the floor.

'Mason, I need you. We're under attack.' I waited for a reply, but it never came.

'Mason?' I mind linked him again.

'June,' I tried, but it was like something cut off our mind link. I was alone.

Giving up, I went to battle without my best assets, without my friends, without my mates, but with a body that could barely move and heart that had given up.

Lana's P.O.V.

"Let her go," Jack shouted at my mom, holding a kitchen knife in his hand. I was momentarily in a bad position. June's mother held a knife to my throat. Everyone was turned towards us with weapons in their hands.

"You think I'm scared of you, human," the woman in red snickered.

"What do you want with us," Mason demanded.

"Kill you, of course," She stated with a giggly tone, making me roll my eyes. Like that wasn't clear. "But first," she said in a dark voice, "emotionally destroy you."

"Yeah right," Jack scoffed.

"You don't think I can do it," June's mom asked, offended. "I have been watching you. I know everything about you - even the things you don't know yourself. The only thing I didn't see coming was you," she said nodding to my brother. "I honestly thought you were dead, and especially after what you did to the Alpha's daughter. I thought you would kill yourself if you survived."

Jack's head snapped his way. "What did you do, Mr. Vague?"

"How do you know my bother," I asked, surprised.

Jack turned his head towards me, his face displaying shock. "Your brother," he spit out. He looked to my brother, "So, you - you killed Daniel's sister, and made his dad go mad," he said while stepping forwards and pushing his knife against my brother's neck.
