Chapter 64 – Markus

Markus P.O.V.

We made our way back and retrieved our clothes before we shifted. I wasn’t going to be wearing the

jacket of my suit or the tie for

the rest of the evening. I put on my shirt and I was buttoning it up when Celeste pulled me down by the

shirt and crashed her lips into

mine, making me stumble into her and I had to grab her to stop us from going to the floor. I quickly

crushed her body to mine and

growled as I pushed her to the back of the stage. My hands went to her ass as I lifted her to me. She

couldn’t wrap her legs around me as

her dress didn’t allow her that much movement. Instead, she wrapped the one leg on the side that had

a slit on her dress and leaned her body into mine, grinding up against my hardening c**k as I shoved

my tongue in her mouth, tasting her. I couldn’t get enough of her. If

this dress was not a gift from her mother, I would rip it off and take her.

Markus, we can’t start eating without you or our Luna, so don’t be thinking you can play hooky,’ novelbin

Gillian teased over the mind link.

Igroaned and pulled away from Celeste. “I want nothing more than to make sweet sweet love to you,

but I’ve just been advised we can’t play hooky to our own celebration dinner,” I told Celeste as I pulled

away, trying to adjust my clothes. Celeste giggled and blushed and then turned around, sweeping her

long hair over her shoulders for me to pull up the zipper that went down her glorious ass. I pulled it up

slowly, letting my fingertips brush up against her skin. I felt her shiver. I grabbed her by the waist and

led her to the table. I noticed Kelly sitting next to Rhett looking like they were in their own little world.

‘Enjoy the party, they will be with us the rest of the night,

told my warriors who were still standing near the girls.

‘Thank you Alpha,’ they responded and went to join their families and friends in the celebration.

I switched my attention back to my little seductress, ‘You didn’t tell me Kelly would be Alpha Rhett’s

mate,’ Iscolded my Tuli.

She laughed, I didn’t know it would be her. Selene just told me all of our close friends and allies would

find their mates. That the

mate bond will make them strong and happy. That this will help us in the struggles ahead.’

‘Wait, does that mean that Gillian will find his soon too?,

Tasked, excited for him. I know even though he put on a good face, he

wanted nothing more than to find his mate.

‘Yes,’ she said mischievously, but didn’t elaborate.

‘Tuli, do you know who Gillian’s mate is.

I asked.

She shook her head as one of the children from the Orphanage came over and gave her a red wild

flower that must have been on

one of the teddy bears and put it in behind her ear. ‘All she gave me was a hint and I’m not sharing,’s

he told me as she bent and gave the

little boy a kiss. She looked back up at me and smiled.

Keep smiling like that and I’m going to say damn the rules and take you upstairs,’ said and she

blushed, but before she could respond, they began serving our food. We were all chatting amicably,

except for the Blood Moon Pack. They were mostly by themselves near the end of the table. Sandra,

however, was flirting with every possible member of the table that didn’t have a mate. Even the kids

avoided their area of the table as they ran around with their toys, playing together and playing with a

few Lunas.

I looked over at Celeste. She was eating with a lot of energy, practically wolfing down her food as she

chatted amicably with Alpha

Troy and Luna Kiara, who looked a little more relaxed as she played with a 4-year-old little boy who

had lost his parents in an attack a

couple of years ago. I made conversation with a few of the Alphas. A couple of Lunas even noticed the

decorations and mentioned how

novel of an idea it was to use all-natural decorations for the Harvest Moon. I mentioned the fact that the

food was to be donated to a

local food bank and a couple of them complimented us on such a creative idea. It wasn’t until the party

was thinning out that I requested all of the Alphas for a meeting tomorrow morning to discuss some

matters before they left back to their Packs. The councilmen already knew that I had requested a

meeting before coming.

I saw the Blood Moon Pack all make their way out of the party and towards the Alpha’s suite. I mind

linked one of the warriors to

keep an eye on their actions. If they tried to leave before the meeting tomorrow, I would need to move

the meeting to tonight, so I was to be informed if they tried to leave. I grabbed Celeste and led her to

the dancing floor as a slow song began. I wrapped my arms around her

I led her back to the table and we started to chat with a few people. I was in the middle of a

conversation with Alpha Nickolas when I felt Celeste’s arm on mine and she whispered that she would

be going to the bathroom. A couple of minutes later, I felt Atlas suddenly start pacing in my head,

growling lowly.

What’s going on with you? – I asked.

I don’t know. I can’t link Kara. It is like she’s gone to sleep. I don’t like this Markus, go check on mate. –

He said.

I instantly looked to my left and noticed that Celeste still wasn’t back from the bathroom. Both Maya

and Kelly were still at the table so she hadn’t taken anyone with her. I tried to link her but I couldn’t

connect. I rose, starting to feel panic. I excused myself and almost ran towards the bathroom. She

wasn’t in the guest bathroom, but there was a long line. If she needed to go, she would have gone up

to

use our bathroom or go use the staff bathrooms. I hurried towards the staff bathrooms first.

I could smell her down the hallway along with a sour scent around the bathroom area. I pushed the

door open to find all of the

toiletries from the sink on the floor. There had been a struggle. I let Atlas forward so that we could

share his enhanced senses. I went back

out of the bathroom and sniffed. Atlas growled as we recognized the sour smell to be Wolfsbane.

Celeste’s smell went a bit past the

bathroom. We walked three steps and kicked the door open. There were two smells here, Celeste and

someone else. I looked around the

items in the room to realize what was happening. I went to the open window to see one of Celeste’s

shoes right below it.

I opened a mind link to the entire pack. ‘THE LUNA HAS BEEN TAKEN. SPREAD OUT AND FIND

HER. SHE WAS TAKEN A FEW MINUTES

OUT FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PACK HOUSE. THEY CANNOT HAVE GONE FAR. FIND AND

BRING OUR LUNA HOME.’

I heard the howls

from inside and outside the Packhouse as my pack began to search for their Luna.

Topened a mind link to Gillian, Danny and a couple of guards. Gillian, inform the Alphas and council

that Celeste is missing. She was

taken out of Sandra’s room. Guards detain anyone from the Blood Moon Pack.’

‘Yes Alpha,’ they all said as I made my way to the Alpha Suites. I was climbing the stairs two at a time

when I felt someone pulling at

my mind link.

“Yes?’l growled.

‘Alpha, we have to find the Luna, Dr West said. I paused.

‘That’s what I’m trying to do, Igrowled back. This was a waste of time. I cut the mind link but then

immediately felt Dr West pulling

for a mind link again.

‘WHAT’ I yelled.

“Alpha Markus, I got the results this morning of the full blood panel we took from the Luna. She was 1.5

weeks pregnant when we

took the blood sample. She and Kara won’t be able to feel the pup until 3 weeks. We need to find her

before she gets hurt,’

Dr West

hurried to tell me.

Atlas and I roared so loudly, I felt the stairs shake. He pushed forward and jumped up, landing over the

guard rail of the third floor. He

went straight to where Alpha Geoff was arguing with the guards. I grabbed Alpha Geoff by the throat

and lifted him up as Atlas allowed

me to take over. He would kill him before we got any information out of him.

“WHERE IS SHE??” I roared. Luna Luisa screamed and Beta Trevor tried to pull me off Alpha Geoff,

but my guards restrained

him.

“Where is Celeste?” I yelled. I saw him starting to go red and released his throat but still held him

against the wall.

“How the bloody f**k would I know where your Luna is?” He growled while taking deep breaths. I saw

and heard Gillian and the

others arrive but the only thing that mattered was Celeste.

“Your daughter took my mate. There’s the stench of wolfsbane where the struggle took place. I followed

her scent to your daughter’s room. YOUR DAUGHTER USED WOLFSBANE ON MY PREGNANT

MATE,” I roared at him and I heard growls from behind me at the news,”

WHERE IS YOUR DAUGHTER?”

I saw Alpha Geoff’s eye try to glaze over but not long enough for him to have actually talked to anyone.

He paled slightly and then looked at her Luna.

“What the f**k did your daughter do? Where is she? I told you we should have taken her back when

she ran off yesterday to find her,”

appeared to attempt to mind link her daughter and started panicking when she didn’t get through.

. “I won’t ask again. Where the f**k did your b***h of a daughter take my mate?” Atlas’ and my voice

roared together.

Alpha, I caught her scent. They are headed into the forest towards the river.’ Danny’s mind link came

through.

“Hold them in the dungeons where her cousin is kept. Next to Levi. Daniel caught her scent,” I said as I

jumped out the window,

tearing my suit as I shifted. I had to find her. If anything happened to her or our pup, Atlas and I would

tear the entire world apart, and we

would start with Alpha Geoff.
