Chapter 83


    ~Landon~


    What the hell is going on? We are trying to find Lincoln, and now there’s some kind of issue in mom’s


    office. I run to the door first, pulling the wall out, and stop short. Mom is naked on the floor; dad is


    standing in front of her, and Stuart is facing him. He is naked and looks like he’s about to shift.


    I slowly walk into the room, trying not to drop under the weight of my dad’s aura and the anger in the


    room. Mom picked up a men’s shirt and put it on in an effort to cover herself, and I’m pretty sure the


    shirt belongs to Stuart. I hear a gasp behind me, and I’m sure Tia and Doc have entered the room.


    “Dad?”


    “Stuart?” Thedies each whisper, but I keep my eyes on my dad and Stuart. I continue to make my


    way closer to them slowly. I don’t want anyone to flip out and attack.


    “Touch my mate again, and I’ll rip your throat out.” Stuart’s eyes are pitch ck, and his chest is


    heaving. I look at my mom, and everything clicks. Dad told us that mom was his chosen mate, and he


    didn’t know what had happened with her fated mate. Holy s**t! Tia’s dad and my mom are fated mates.


    “Your mate?” Dad looks at mom. “You always said your fated mate wasn’t in the picture. This,” he


    motions to Stuart, “doesn’t look like he isn’t in the picture to me. What the hell is going on?” Mom looks


    between dad and Stuart, but she doesn’t speak. “ANSWER ME!” Mom still says nothing. Dad moves


    closer to mom and grabs her arm. “YOU WILL ANSW-”


    Dad is stopped mid-sentence when Stuart rips him away from my mom. Dad stumbles backward and


    looks stunned. Itsts just a few seconds before dad punches Stuart so hard in the chest that he flies


    into the wall behind him. “YOU DARE TOUCH ME, YOUR ALPHA?!” I can feel dad pushing out his


    aura and hear Tia and Doc groan. I’m having trouble staying on my feet, but I’m trying my hardest.


    Mom reaches out and touches dad’s arm. His aura recedes as he pulls his arm away from her grasp.


    “Paul, please, let’s talk.”


    “Talk….talk…..you want to talk?!” Dad throws his head back andughs. Mom looks more than


    nervous, and Stuart looks livid, but he seems to be calming down. “I catch you with another man, your


    supposed mate, and now you want to talk.” Dad turns to us and starts to walk away from mom. “We are


    going to go back into my office and ‘talk’ about what’s important, like where the flying f**k Lincoln is.


    You remember Lincoln, right? Your son……we are going to talk, and you, well, you can continue to do


    what you were doing.” Dad stops and turns to Stuart. “But you will get the f**k out of this packhouse! I


    don’t want to see you anytime soon.” Dad walks past us and back into his office. I look at Tia and Doc,


    motioning with my head for them to follow.


    “Wait, Paul…what do you mean about Lincoln? Paul?!” I don’t turn around because I just can’t set my


    eyes on my mom yet. This is all too much, and Lincoln is more important.

    I’m lost. I really don’t know what end is up. What the hell is going on right now? I swear this is some


    kind of mind trick, or I’m being punked. I can’t even begin to wrap my mind around this mess, but I’m


    not even going to try. Right now, I need to focus on my missing mate.


    We make it back into the Alpha’s office to find him pacing the room. Landon is lost, and mom looks


    stunned. I don’t know what to do or to think, but someone has to get things started. “I…..I can’t feel


    Lincoln. I can’tmunicate with him, and I just can’t feel him.” Landon looks at me and clears his


    throat.


    “I can’t feel him either. It’s liek our bond is blocked. Goliath said he can’t reach Brutus.” Alpha Paul


    stops pacing and pulls a piece of paper out of his pocket. He passes the paper to Landon, who scowls


    while reading it.


    “A warrior found this note. It was supposed to have been left in front of the packhouse and not other


    clue was found. I just can’t believe what’s written on it. It says that he’s sorry, but he just can’t do the


    mate thing. He never wanted his fated mate or to share his mate with his brother. It all became too


    much and he had to go.” I can feel my heart break into a million pieces. This can’t be real. Did he really


    decide to walk away from what we have?


    It isn’t true.


    How do you know, Andricia? He had an issue about the mate bond in the beginning, remember?


    I know, but he was over that. He wanted this, wanted us. He didn’t leave us, don’t believe it. I know that


    Andricia wants to be optimistic because she wants her mate, but I can’t be so sure. His note fits with


    his mindset in the beginning. Maybe the reality became too much for him, and he wanted a way out.


    “Stop it, Tia.” I look up at Landon. “This note is bulls**t and you know it. He didn’t want to have anyone


    but you. Deep down you know that to be true. We will find what happened to him and we will bring him


    back.”


    “Seems as if he has been taken, at least that’s what I think.”


    “I agree, dad. The question is, who took him.” I notice mom walking toward me. She wipes my cheek,


    and ites up wet. I didn’t even realize that I was crying.


    “Come, my daughter. Today has been a day, and I think we need to go rest.” She turns to Alpha Paul


    and Landon. “I will take her toy down in my room. Please let us know if anything changes.” Mom


    pulls me along with her, and somehow, my feet start to move. I look back at Landon right before I walk


    out of the office.


    “I swear, we will find him and bring him home my love.” I slowly nod and follow my mom out of the


    room.
