The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 71

Gavin

I've recruited one of the she-wolves to help me try and locate the former Luna's safe since she was part of the help back in the day of Alpha Lincoln and Luna Stacia's reign. We have already searched the Luna's suite of rooms, and now we are tearing apart each room, floor-by-floor.

Maybe it's wrong for us to be doing this, but Quinn's life is at stake, and I know that whatever is in that safe will be able to help us, I just know it! The problem is, Luna Stacia was one smart cookie, because we are not locating the safe anywhere.

"What in the world are you doing, Gavin?" Cici shrieks when she comes into the kitchen. It's the last room on the first floor that hasn't been searched, and we have it torn apart at the moment.

"I told you that I would look for the safe myself, Cici. We have to find that safe!"

The Beta female studies me before crossing her arms, "When was the last time you slept, Gavin?"

"What?" I glance back at her as I'm pulling out mixing bowls from one of the top cupboards, "What does it matter? The only thing that matters is getting the Alpha back." I pull the last of the bowls out and tap the back of the cupboard wall for any kind of hollowness, but I get nothing. I slam my fists down on the counter, "Where the fuck is it, for Goddess's sake?"

Frustration and helplessness seeps through me as I stand here, hands on the counter, and my head bowed. I close my eyes as I try

to focus on where I think a Luna would put a secret safe, when I feel a hand start to rub my back.

"We will get her back, Gavin. I have faith in both you and Alpha Declan. Neither one of you will stop until you do, but you need to rest. You are not any good to us if you don't and you end up going on a crazy bender just like you're doing now." Cici's voice is soft but firm as she lectures me.

"I can't lose her, Cici. I love her..."

"You're not going to. You will bring her home; I can feel it in my bones." The she-wolf sounds so sure of herself and I begin to feel a small ray of hope start to rise.

I stand up to my full height, "I believe you, Cici, but I'm still going to search for that safe."

She sighs and then throws up her arms, "Fine, I will help, but please stop tearing up our pack house!"

I glance around the room and notice the disarray that it's in. I didn't even realize that I was making a mess to this extent, "Sorry, my bad..."

We are back on the Alpha floor because Cici insists that if a Luna were to hide something, that's the floor she would hide it on. I'm not so sure, but at this point, I'm willing to try anything.

"What did the letter that Quinn's mom leave her, say?" Cici asks while pulling stuff out from the closet in the Alpha suite.

"I didn't open it. I couldn't bring myself to do it because that seems a little too personal." I shrug.

She stops what she's doing and stares back at me, "You are rummaging through Dark Moon's pack house, trying to find a private safe, but yet, you refuse to open the letter?"

I chuckle, "Yeah, it's kind of messed up, huh?"

"I'd say, but whatever..." She shakes her head and continues her search.

"If you have this room, I'll go search the nursery," I state, "There is no reason for two of us to search one room." If I'm being totally honest, I can't stay in this room with Quinn being gone. Too many memories, and until we bring her home, I won't feel right being inside her space.

I start by going through the empty drawers of the dresser, knowing I won't find anything, but not wanting to leave anything

unsearched. Moving on, I search almost every nook and cranny inside the nursery. All that is left is the beautiful hand-carved crib, but when I start pulling it apart, one of the warriors from my pack mind links

me.

'Gavin, I answered a call today while at the pack house. It was some doctor from another pack. He says he needs you to call him. and leave a voicemail, so he knows that it is you, because he has coordinates for you.'

'What kind of coordinates?' I ask confused.

'Uh, he says that he is with the pack that has Alpha Quinn, and that he was informed not to say anything to Alpha Daniel. That's why I'm linking you.'

I stop what I'm doing as soon as I hear Quinn's name. When it's confirmed that it really is Quinn, by her saying not to talk to my father, I'm hurrying out of the nursery. 'Thank you! I don't have to tell, you not to say anything to the Alpha, correct?'

'Correct. I understand, Gavin. Let me know what you are needing from our end and I will take care of it. I'll send you the number he gave me to your cell.' Preston is a good male and I've always thought he would make a great head warrior once I become Alpha.

'Will do, Preston, and thanks again.'

I peek my head into the Alpha suite, "Quinn's office now." I don't even look around to see where Cici may be when I order her to the office. I take the stairs down, two at a time, until I hit the second floor and quickly reach the Alpha's office. Spencer is sitting behind the desk with his head buried in paperwork.

"Stop what you're doing, Spence." I walk over and pull my cell from my pocket, "A doctor from another pack called my pack house looking for me. One of my warriors took the message and I need to call back to get a set of coordinates. Can you pull up the map so we can type it in once we get them?"

I don't even have to mention that it's about Quinn because he knows that all I do is live and breathe with finding her these days. He's quick to move things away from the keyboard and starts typing profusely. Cici comes flying into the room just as I dial the number that Preston sent me. Putting the speaker phone on, we wait for it to ring but it goes straight to voicemail.

'Hello, you have reached Dr. Sands with the Black Forest pack. I cannot answer my phone right now but if you would leave your name, number, and message, I will be happy to get back to you at my earliest convenience. Have a good day.'

"Dr. Sands, this is Gavin Davis returning your call. 111-434-8912"

I hang up because if he's going against his Alpha on this, I don't want to get him in any more trouble than I have to, so keeping it

short is the best way to go. I gave him what he needs, and we don't have to wait long. Not even two minutes later, my phone pings with an incoming text message.

"Ready?" I ask spencer.

"Yep, go ahead." He responds, his fingers poised over the number keys. I read off the coordinates and watch as Spence types them in. A broad grin stretches across his face as he looks over his shoulder at me. "Quinn is about two and a half hours away, at the Black Forest pack."

"Why does that name sound familiar?" I ask more to myself than anything.

Spencer types a few things into the computer, "Black Forest pack, located between Cave Springs and Salem Rock. Current Alpha is Alpha Tate, almost twenty-one years of age, and engaged to the future Luna Greer, who might I add, has gone missing about six months ago." His forehead creases momentarily before his eyes widen, "Allies to the Black Forest pack are White Fang, Black Water, Dark Eclipse, and the former Desert Sand pack."

We all glance around at each other once the last pack's name is out of his mouth, "Jasper!" we all say in unison, and then I'm on the phone once more, dialing Declan's number.

"Send all that information to my phone, will you?" I ask Spencer.

"I sure can. I will also start gathering our warriors together."

I nod and start walking out of the office as I wait for my cousin to

pick up, "What is it now, Gavin?" Declan sounds annoyed, but I really don't care. Now is not the time to argue.

"Round up our allies, we've found her."
