But before I could make a move or even speak, Margo Felicity, the coordinator of the ceremony, rushed down the aisle towards me with a somber expression as she hurried towards my seat.
“Alpha Kane, I’m afraid I have some troubling news, there has been a terrible incident!” she said, her voice grave as my temperature
rose.
My heart sank to the pit of my stomach as I braced myself for what was to come what did she mean an incident?
Have they both been hurt?
How has this happened?!
“What the fuck is it? Spit it out!” I snapped, my voice barely above a whisper as the room grew silent and tense.
Margo’s expression darkened as she spoke. “Tessa and Erin… they’ve both attempted to run off. They’re both gone – I’ve just had some of my staff check the area for them and we can’t find them anywhere.” She concludes, as my brows furrow and I don’t quite understand what she is saying.
They’ve run off? I don’t believe it!
Shock and anger coursed through me like a tidal wave, leaving me reeling in disbelief and ready to destroy this whole room.
“What the fuck are you saying? No, that can’t be true, Tessa wouldn’t do that! She was terrified when she thought Erin had tried to run off – she knows the consequences of doing that!” I protested, my mind refusing to accept the reality of her words.
But as I looked around the room, the truth sank in. Tessa and Erin were nowhere to be found, and a sickening sense of dread settled
over me like a curse.
Without another word, I stormed out of the hall, hitting everyone and everything that stood in my way as my mind raced with a
million thoughts and questions.
I have to find the both of them – this instant!
How could this have happened? And why hadn’t I been there to stop them?
We shouldn’t have gave them the silent treatment – I fucking knew it! We’ve pushed them too far!
I vowed then and there that I would find them, no matter what it took..
With Seth hot on my heels, I sent a quick mind–link to Anthony to let him know what had happened and to tell him to meet us in a
to devise a plan.
room
With a sense of determination burning within me, I summoned a meeting with all of the facility staff and current members of my pack who were in the hall, unwilling to waste another moment in finding them.
As we entered the room, I could feel the tension crackling in the air as we waited mere seconds before everyone invo
pile in and show either their concern or support on the task at hand.

We need to find Tessa and Erin,‘ I announced, my voice firm and resolute. “They’ve disappeared, and I won’t rest until we bring them back safely. If anyone knows anything – TELL ME.” I demand, as the group remain quiet and awkward.
“I’m here! Where the fuck have they gone?!” Anthony rushes in, as I shake my head and he eyes the masses of males and females I had gathered together in the room to help.

Chapter 103
Margo Felicity, who had also followed us into the room, forced a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes as she spoke up. ‘Of course, Kane. We’ll do everything we can to help you track them down. She states, before licking her teeth and growing uncomfortable as i stare right through her.
Her words sounded hollow to my ears, and a flicker of suspicion crossed my mind. Something about her demeanor seemed off, as though she was hiding something from us…
But there was no time to dwell on my suspicions. Tessa and Erin’s safety was my top priority, and I couldn’t afford to let anything distract me from that.
“Start by checking all the exits and security footage,” I instructed, my voice steady despite the turmoil raging inside me. ‘We need to find out how they managed to slip away unnoticed.” I wave off some of the centre staff who nod and make a move to do just that.
