My Mate

Zayn

The more I looked at the picture of Hope with that cunning mother fucker the angrier I got. Why the f**k is she sitting with him? Why isn’t she trying to get away? She’s actually smiling and sitting down with him. It looked like they were having a picnic or something. What the f**k…Thoughts of him with her cloud my judgment and anger takes over me. I let out a loud pained growl and grab a lamp off the table and smash it against the wall. I smash everything I can get a hold of as I can’t erase the images of his mouth on hers, Hope kissing the filthy snake, him f*****g her… the rage that has been simmering underneath my skin works its way and takes over me.

I tore the f*****g place down Hunter took over and I welcomed his wrath until I grabbed one of Hope’s many pictures that I have hanging on my walls and instantly stopped. My heart was beating like a maniac I looked into her eyes. Those emerald green eyes that have haunted me from the first day I followed her mouthwatering scent and saw her outside by the pool, I feel a sharp stinging pain cut through my body.

I cannot go on like this… I can’t live without her but what does this picture mean. Is she out there somewhere living a new life with Alex? Has she forgotten about me? There’s no way I would I have felt her rejection had she forgotten about me about us. I am convinced that Alex has drugged Hope and that’s why Hunter could not reach Jenna. How is it possible that she is having a picnic with him, what am I missing?

I called Jason and told him to come meet me at the Red B***d Moon Pack. Axel and all our other allies have been helping us look for Alex. I drove over to Axel’s pack as fast as I could and mind linked Matt on the way

Be ready I think we might have a location

Emily greeted me as soon as I got there. Seeing her always reminded me of Hope not that I could ever forget about Hope or let her go. I will get back what’s mine.

“How are you?” She asked me hugging me tight I don’t answer her question

“Have you found any new leads?” She asked again Axel was standing beside her.

“Yes, someone sent Jason a picture of her. I’m going to get a technician to figure out where the picture was taken.”

“Oh my Goddess that’s great news ” Emily hugs me again

“I’m sure it wasn’t Alex who sent the picture” I said “Someone else is there that knows Jason. Mother fucker Gavin transferred to the East the same day Hope was abducted” I said looking at Emily

“Well he has been trying to ask her out for a while…

“Well then why would he help Alex?” Axel asks. Just then Jason and his mate arrive and are escorted to where we are in the private den. Right away Axel calls for his best technician. After all the digging to find a clue any clue or lead after all the dead ends I finally have hope.

“You need to figure out where this picture was sent from” I hand him Jason’s phone

“Yes Alpha I can use EXIF data and GPS coordinates to find out where the picture was taken..it won’t take too long” Hunter perked his ears up. He’s always ready for a good fight.

The technician sits down and starts doing his thing while I wait impatiently

“Jason have you tried calling the number that sent you the picture? I asked him

“Yes Alpha they won’t answer”

Then all of a sudden I hear it. Hello…

I stood almost unable to speak or move as the sweetest voice fills my mind and soul and shoots right through to my heart. I didn’t want to say anything so her voice wouldn’t fade away like it had so many times before.

Umm I keep hearing voices …are you there?

Hunter howls out in agony and longing when he hears her voice but he still can’t reach Jenna. So I take my chances

“Hope” My f*****g voice cracks through our mind link “Please don’t shut me out tell me where you are”

She’s there I can feel her and hear her breathing I lean back against the wall and slide down to sit on the floor trying to calm myself down. She doesn’t say anything at first but then finally speaks

“I don’t know where I am” Her voice was gentle but sad through our mind link. Nobody in the room seems to notice but they can’t hear us either.

“Baby where is Jenna?” I couldn’t believe I was reaching out to her but she didn’t seem like herself. I’m going to murder the mother fucker.

“Jenna… who’s Jenna?” f**k. It’s my baby’s sweet voice but it holds no emotion and she is not herself.

“Hope?” I say sounding panicked she doesn’t answer but I can feel her there. I lean my head back against the wall “I love you Hope remember that ” After a few short seconds our link was blocked but those few seconds made Hunter thrive even more for Alex’s b***d.

I was getting impatient I kept hovering over the man as he clicked away on Jason’s phone. Fifteen minutes later I had a location. The picture was sent from the northeast and precisely from the state of Maine. I quickly called Brian and my father. Matt put together our best warriors and trackers while I called my best pilot.

All I had to do was make a six hour flight and then I could kill the mother fucker.

“What if this is a trap?” Axel asked “Why would he risk sending you a picture? That you can easily track?

“He didn’t send it” I said

Hope

After breakfast with Alex he left but not without trying to get me to give him a promise that I would take my so called medication. After Alex left I looked for Kain but couldn’t find him anywhere. So I went to my room and got ready to train. It was time for my pill. I didn’t take it instead I sat down on my bed and concentrated on the voice in my head. I heard that voice again this time he called me by my name. He asked me where I was and he asked for another person called Jenna. I was totally freaked out so took my crazy pills and headed down to the gym. I stopped when I saw Kain in the hallway. He tried to hide his face from me

“Kain what happened? ” I hoped he would tell me the truth but he didn’t

“I had an accident” He said I looked at him knowingly

“I saw him attack you” I folded my arms against my chest

“Hope you can’t tell him you saw that he might…”

“He might what?” I demanded but he doesn’t answer.

“Why did you let him do that to you why put up with it Kain?” He smiles at me. “I have a feeling he will get what he deserves soon. Plus I’ll be leaving in a few days I have a prom to go to” He says in all seriousness

“I wish I could go” I say. He looks at me so intently before he says in a very low voice

“You don’t deserve this Hope” He sounds so different he’s usually lively and funny right now he seems to hold a heavy burden. My heart aches for Jason…Jason?? Just then I see myself on a beach sitting next to a guy who hands me a drink “I meant it Hope I’ll always take care of you” the guy says to me. Who is he? Why do I keep having these memories? I need to ask Kain about these visions I keep having but right now was not the right time.

I suppose he could have meant my memory loss but for some reason I had a feeling he meant something else.

I spent the rest of the afternoon training with Kain before going up to my room to take a shower. I stop in my tracks when I see Alex sitting in my room.

“I thought you were leaving for a few days?” I asked

“I was but I couldn’t leave you here alone” He smiles at me
