The Alpha's A Mute

Seventeen

Maverick had a bad feeling when he woke up the next day. He couldn't explain why. Everything had been perfect so why was he feeling like this. But maybe because it had been perfect was the reason why he was feeling like this. Nothing stayed right with him for long.
"Mav?" Silas blinked sleepily at him before sitting up," What's wrong?" "Nothing," he sat up and rubbed his head. Silas hugged him from behind, resting his cheek against Maverick's back. "I love you." "Love you too Si," Mav kissed his hand.

The feeling got worse as the day passed. Silas, Grayson, and Corbin watched him in worry. When they asked what was wrong he just smiled and said nothing.
Maverick sat on the couch, absentmindedly running his hand through Si's hair. He was tired, fighting to keep his eyes open. "Mav lets go to bed." Silas pulled on his hand and led him up the stairs.
They laid in bed, Maverick had his arms wrapped securely around Silas' waist. He sighed, Silas' scent making the wolf fall asleep.

Silas got up to use the bathroom. It was dark out but his vampire eyes could see easily. He took a quick look at Mav before a smiled and left the room.
He pulled out a glass and took a blood pack out the back of the fridge. He poured it into the glass and took a sip before turning to head back upstairs.
A hand covered his mouth and he dropped the glass. It shattered against the floor. Silas kicked, trying to free himself but his attacker was too strong.
He bit down on his hand, his fangs puncturing skin. But it did nothing. Silas thrashed again, his feet hitting the floor and getting cut by the glass. He looked at the mirror in the kitchen and his eyes widened. His attacker hit him in the head and knocked him out.

Maverick woke up to Grayson banging on the door. "MAVERICK GET DOWNSTAIRS QUICK!" The alpha jumped out of bed. It was serious, Grayson never used Mav's full name.
He ran down the stairs, the smell of blood hit him. His blood ran cold at the sight in front of him. Blood covered the kitchen floor. Silas and two other unknown donors.
Mav clutched Grayson's shoulders," Where is Silas?" He shook the male. "I don't know. He's gone." Maverick fell to his knees, his breathing ragged. He clutched at his hair.
"Vic. Vic! Maverick!" Grayson slapped him. "We will find him." His eyes burned into Mav's. He nodded before turning towards Corbin. "Corbin do you know anything?" The vampire looked down before he sighed.

"I might know who took him." Corbin unknowingly wrapped his arms around himself. "Our mother was just a regular vampire, but our father was an earl. But Silas is different. He has a power that is really rare. Silas can control minds. Our father has been after him since he was four years old.
"We moved around a lot while growing up. After our mother passed away, I took over and we continued to move. He found us since we stayed here too long."

Grayson and Maverick gave pained looks. "It's not your fault. Silas and I didn't want to leave. We love you. You'll never know how much it means to us that you didn't push us away just because of what we are," Grayson wrapped his arms around him and pulled him close. "Please help me get my brother back." Mav looked up, his eyes glowing," I will get him back if it's the last thing I do." He disappeared outside.
A howl filled the air. It was filled with pain and anger, but most of all determination and a warning.

The alpha was a mute no more.

And he would make them pay for taking his mate.
