My Not So Perfect Mate (boyxboy)

Chapter 10

As soon as I reached my office, I started looking for my phone on my desk. I was having trouble locating it despite having made a mess of all the papers and files lying on my desk when I was suddenly hit with the realisation that the last time I had seen it was when I was in the midst of a panic attack and had taken a call from Sam, very much under the influence of my panic dazed mind.

I immediately looked towards the floor where I was lying just a few minutes ago all broken and bruised and saw my phone looking like a personification of my earlier self with its screen all cracked and broken.

I collected it from the ground and placed my finger on the fingerprint scanner relieved to find it in working condition. I also found a shit tonne of missed calls from Sam who must have been freaking out after bearing witness to my pathetic condition earlier.

No matter how much I don't want to, I know that I will have to give him a call and inform him about the meeting so that he can be present via video call.

I also need to talk to him about the situation there as he right now is the only one who had the insight of what was taking place in Red Blood Pack as I am sure the Alpha there must be doing everything in his power to rescue his son.

But that call will have to wait as my priority right now is to talk to the Alpha of Red Blood Pack. I dialled his number waiting for him to pick up. The call connected and I was greeted by a strong loud voice introducing himself as Lucas Remington, the alpha of the Red Blood Pack.

" Hi, this is Xavier Ainsworth, the alpha of the Blood Moon Pack", I too introduced myself and surprisingly my voice sounded as firm and confident, if not more, as the alpha on the other end of the call. All my panic and weaknesses seemed to have vanished only leaving sheer determination and courage in its wake, along with the desperation to save that boy from suffering the same fate as me.

Alpha Lucas gasped upon hearing my name, his carefully constructed persona of a strong indifferent Alpha slipping a little bringing his worry and desperation for his child to the forefront.

" I am really sorry for what you and your family are going through at the moment but I have not called you to give you my condolences but to offer my help in any way I can to rescue your boy from the clutches of that monster", I said immediately getting to the point and stating the purpose behind my phone call.

" He said that I should make no effort to find Ramsey. He will not harm him as long as I am not plotting anything against him. I don't know how but he instantly knew that I have sent my men to track Ramsey and threatened me to call them back immediately if I ever wanted to see my son alive. He said that it was my last warning and if I do anything else, Ramsey will suffer on my behalf. He just wants me to sit still and wait for his next instructions. He said that he will know if I dare to go against his words again. I really don't know what to do anymore", he said the last words sounding so broken and weak, nothing like the strong alpha who had greeted me at the start of the conversation.

" Did he say anything else", I prompted him wanting him to tell me everything about what had gone down up till now. I wanted to micro analyse each and every word that has left Rico's mouth and maybe acquire the slightest idea of what he was up to this time.

I won't ever make the mistake of underestimating him as I had first hand experienced the tricks he had played and the traps he had placed to throw off my dad rendering him confused and helpless time and again, even ten years ago.

" He warned me against leaving my territory or inviting anyone else inside my pack. In the beginning, we didn't take his threats very seriously as I just took him for a random criminal looking for ransom and we had a plan in place of how we were going to rescue my son and the same time capture him. When he introduced himself as Rico, he did sound extremely cocky but when his name failed to spark any fear in me, he simply laughed and said that maybe he needs to demonstrate what the mere mention of his name did to people and it was then that he called your father and his name really had your dad fuming but when he recollected some of the things..." before he could continue, I interrupted him as it was impossible for me to hear that and still maintain my calm demeanour.

" I know everything about that phone call. I also know that he did that only to instil fear in you and to send a message that you should take all his threats seriously. And I would also recommend you to not underestimate him. He can resort to levels you cannot even imagine. I am not trying to scare you but only trying to emphasize the fact that we need to rescue your son as soon as possible and we also need to be very smart in our planning or else...", I knew that there was no need for me to continue as the alpha clearly understood the connotation behind my unspoken words if his heavy breathing was anything to go by.

" My pack is unaware of the situation and only my inner circle of people know about the kidnapping. The alpha of Blue Moon, Charles Marque is my childhood friend, I trust him blindly and was the first person to know about the incident outside my pack. Fortunately, your pack warriors are residing in his pack at the moment and Charles wanted me to trust your pack and let your head warrior inform you about the situation. You head warrior is indeed very kind and sounded quite sure that you would be down to help me and now I know why", the alpha said and the mention of Sam's name yet again made a shiver run down my spine. There was again no time to contemplate about this so I decided to relay my plan to the alpha instead.

" I am going to hold a meeting of the members who hold important positions in my pack as well as the elders. Why don't you and your people of position also join us and same with Blue Moon Pack and we can all together come up with a full proof plan to rescue Ramsey", I proposed even though I know that we are losing time and each minute we spend planning, a new scar will be added to Ramsey's body or mind. But I also knew that if we are not cautious enough that we may lose Ramsey forever in the hands of that beast.

" And you are sure your phone is not being tapped or someone had not hacked into your system or anything as Sam has informed us earlier because that would be disastrous", I couldn't help but confirm.

" Yes we are sure of that, that being the first thing we checked. And thank you for deciding to help us and taking the reins as my brain seems to have just stopped working. I am here in my office trying to come up with any plan to help my son and let me tell you I was failing miserably. So thank you for your help", he said sounding equal degree helpless and thankful.

" No need to thank me. That monster and I too have some unfinished business but that's not relevant right now. My first priority is to save your son and then I am going to tear that devil apart. It's long overdue and he deserves to die", I growled finally losing my calm attitude and giving in to my rage which was continuously simmering inside me. Each helpless word of that broken father just adding fuel to the fire.

After agreeing on some other details of the meeting, I finally put down the phone and mind linked Jake telling him that it was an emergency and he needed to gather all the elders, the old people of position as well as the new within the next hour. At the moment we needed all great minds to come together because though I and my comrades have young blood which prompts us to rush into any and every situation, what we need right now is to have a definite plan of action and that will require the wisdom and experience of the people who had done this once before. Who had a front-row seat to everything that went down when I was abducted and my father needed their help to rescue me.

I knew that Jake wanted to question me further about the emergency but my curt urgent tone was preventing him from doing so. He just replied with a " Got it Alpha" suppressing his curious self getting on with the task in hand.
