Ice Princess (Little Alpha Book 2)

Chapter 51

I woke up groggy and frowned as I saw the sun was already high in the sky. My heart clenched as I sat up and Ezekiel wasn't there. I jumped out of bed and quickly dressed as I started to scan, my heart dropping. Zoey was gone too. I clenched my jaw and shakily sat on the bed to focus, drawing my legs under me I closed my eyes.

The process was slower because this was not my territory and I hadn't bothered to mark the area since we were only here for a short time. I found little relief in finding that they were together, but they were far and I didn't know where. I relaxed as I felt my twin was with them also.

"Xavier..."

I felt his surprise then his dread. "Awake already? Explains why he suddenly got worried."

I frowned. "Where are you?"

He chuckled nervously. "Getting some things..."

"Xavier."

He sighed. "Calm down my lovely sister, they are safe. I will make sure it stays that way."

I flared my nostrils as anger began to mix with my fear. "I'm coming."

I felt him talking and a nudge into our link. "Vivi..."

I softened at the sound of her mind. "What are you doing, Ladybug?"

I felt her smile. "You were tired, Vivi. ZayZay said you should rest."

I sighed. "I'm rested now. I'll meet you."

She hesitated. "You feel tired still..."

I smirked, this girl is strong. "I'll manage. I'll see you soon."

Again, she paused. "Stay there, Vivi, we will come to you."

I blinked at her audacity. "What are you hiding?"

Xavier sighed. "Nothing, she worries for you too. She told me you were... without color when she saw you this morning. Take another nap, we're coming."

I furrowed my brow. "Both of you are giving me orders? The nerve of you."

Zoey giggled. "We only want you to be good, Vivi. ZeeZee is worried too. Can't you talk to him?"

I thought for a moment. "Never had the need."

Xavier chuckled. "More like don't want him to know."

I pursed my lips. "Go to hell, I'm sure he can reach his pack's minds if he needed."

I felt him talk outside of the link again. "That would be a negative great Alpha."

I rolled my eyes. "How about you not tell him all our secrets before I label you a traitor and rogue, Jackass."

I could feel his amusement. "I'll take that as a compliment..." He paused. "Your mate says you need to sleep."

I growled. "Tell him he can hold your hand on the way to hell."

He laughed. "How about no. You tell him."

I narrowed my eyes and picked up my phone. "Well... good afternoon, Princess."

"Since my brother is afraid of you... you can hold his hand on his way to hell."

He chuckled. "No, I find yours much more pleasant and I can take you to far better places. We're on our way, try to rest."

I pouted. "I feel fine."

He sighed. "I can feel differently."

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever..." I paused. "You are all taking your sweet fucking time."
