Chapter 0313
REAGAN''S POV.
“Your father disowned you?” I ask in horror after listening to Kyle narrate to me how the introduction
went. He simply smiles as he nods his head. He doesn''t look the least worried.
“This is not the first time he''s saying those words to me, so I''m used to them. However, I could tell
from the look in his eyes that he really meant them this time around. I guess I struck his veryst
nerve.” He exins blithely and I can''t help but stare at him in awe.
“Kyle.” I call in shock. “Your father just disowned you, howe you''re so chill about it?”
“Well…” He breathes heavily and chuckles. “You know how the elders in your council always do
nothing but criticise every major decision you take for the pack or your personal life?”
“Yeah.”
“That''s exactly what I went through in my father''s hands. Most times I wondered if he even loved me
at all because he was always darning everything I did. I cannot remember thest time my father
gave me apliment or congratted me after I achieved something. He always found something
toin about. Some irrelevant mistake to point out and invalidate the good thing I''ve achieved.
He wanted to control my life, but I made him understand that wasn''t going to work so he got mad
and decided to be a shitty father to me. That''s why him disowning me doesn''t hurt, Reagan.” Deep
sigh “I''ve considered myself fatherless since the day your father, the former Alpha died because
he''s the only one who ever treated me like a son. My father treated me only like a sessor that
had to live up to his name and his reputation and I hated him for that. I still do.”
Now I''m totally speechless. I’m at a loss for words. I don''t even know what to say to him. He''s been
through so much in the hands of his father I feel like shit for only finding out about it now. No wonder
he''s always been so out of touch with his family. They gave him a terrible childhood and I''m sure
that''s the reason why Alina''s death did not affect him too much.
Poor Kyle.
“Wow!” I manage. “I… I don''t even know what to say.”
“You don''t have to say anything. I just wanted to make you understand the reason why I''m not
attached to my family so you don''t think I''m a monster for not feeling remorseful about all that''s
going on with them. I tried to warn them, but because I''m an outcast, they didn''t listen and now,
here they are. I love how just the moon goddess is. She punishes everyone ordingly, at the right
time.”
“Yes…” I say, nodding my head. “Yes she does.”
“Enough about my very depressing family history. I have news.” He quickly changes the topic and
I''m not even surprised.
Never have I met a man who despises talking about himself like Kyle does.
“Alright then, hit me.”
“The search party sent to the Diamond Stone pack just arrived. They didn''t find Ashanti, but the
others we sent to the other packs are still looking. Hopefully we get some good news from that end.”
He reports and mncholy fills my heart again.
The thought of Ashanti. The sound of her name. Anything that has got to do with her right now fills
me with nothing but pain and sorrow and regret.
I miss her.
God I miss her so much that I could die and I''m extremely worried about her well being. I hope and
pray that she''s fine wherever she is, because I believe that she''s out there, somewhere.
“The cell door was locked. How on earth did she escape? It''s like someone magically appeared
withing and snatched her away. Something is not right.” I look up at Kyle who seems to be just as
confused as I am about the issue. “Kyle… you don''t think she vanished into thin air, do you?”
“Alpha Reagan, to be honest I have no idea what to think or say right now. How Ashanti left that call
remains a mystery to me.”
I throw my head back and groan in frustration.
“This is my punishment for not iming her the first day I set my eyes on her. I hesitated and it
angered the Moon goddess. She sent me the Second chance mate I had begged her for, but I was
reluctant to im her the moment we met and now she has taken her away from me. This is all my
fault.”
“Alpha Reagan, I understand that you''re going through a hard time right now, but never lose hope.
We’ll keep sending search parties. Even if Ronald and I have to go out there to carry out the search
ourselves, we will. We will find our Luna!”
That tone. That voice. Those words of determination.
Very typical of Kyle.
I shut my eyes and try to imagine where Ashanti could be right now. Her father''s pack was the first
Pack we searched. He was stricken with grief when we told him about Ashanti''s disappearance. I
don''t know any other rtive of hers except…
Wait.
I snap my eyes open and stare at Kyle.
“Her mother.” I blurt out without thinking. “Ashanti always talked about wanting to meet her mother.
What if she''s with her?” I ask thoughtfully. “We once had a conversation and Ashanti mentioned
which Pack her mother hails from but I seem to have forgotten the name of the pack. Quick Kyle,
call her father. Ask him everything there is to know about Ashanti''s mother. Her name, her
whereabouts and how to find her. Do that with immediate effect!”
“I''m on it!” Says Kyle as he bolts out of my office. I rise from my seat and start pacing about.
Her mother!
Why didn''t I think about this sooner?
If Ashanti escaped on her own, the one person she’d have run to is her mother since she knows
where she resides.
I have a good feeling about this.
“King.” I call in my mind and King stirs. “I think we''ve finally got a lead on Ashanti''s location. I think
we are finally going to get our mate back.”
“If you had just listened to me from the beginning, we would not have lost her in the first ce.”
Then he shuts me out. I stay still, confused.
What''s with him now?

He should be happy we''ve got a lead.
Grumpy dog!
“Call me a dog one more time and I''ll shred your mind into pieces.” He threatens in a deadly tone
and purse my lips together, sealing my mouth closed. I plop a nearby couch and allow myself to
rx.
I''ve found her.
