The Unloved Mate

Damien’s pov

All the warriors and anyone who can/wants to help stood in a circle around the meeting table. I am dying inside for my baby, but i don’t want to take any chances. We have to have a plan, we don’t know what they are capable of, and i definitely don’t underestimate my enemies.

That filthy rogue is gonna pay!

“Alpha, i think we should scout the lands and see if we find any traces of the rogue or our Luna.” The head warrior, Cody, says.

“Alright. Make groups of five each and search every inch of our land. You find anything, and i mean anything, you tell me. Nate, Ryan, Cody and i will go to the east border, the others take the rest.” I commanded and they left.

I’ll find you baby, i promise.

We filed out of the room and started Searching​ instantly. The main problem is, that I don’t know who took her, why, and where. If i had know this is gonna happen, i would have never let her out of my sight.

We Searched and Searched for hours and I could tell that the my men were growing frustrated and tired, but they din’t show.

I was running in the forest with wind speed, on full alert for any kind of clue. After another painful hour of running i heard a howl. A signal from a warrior.

‘Alpha! We found something behind the pack house!”

I din’t waste another nanosecond and ran towards the pack house. A small crowd of wolves was gathered around the area. I shifted in my human form and put on the shorts that was wrapped around my paw.

“What is it?” I asked impatiently.

“Alpha! We found some traces of b***d going in that direction.” A warrior said pointing towards the dark forest.

The dark forest is called ‘dark’ for a reason. No one goes there. No one had the guts to explore that part of the land. Because monsterous creatures reside there. It does not belong to anyone in particular so the rogue must have thought it was the best place to keep my baby there, because even i was hesitant to go there​. But not anymore, if my baby is there i would face anyone to bring her back to me.

“I’m going there.” They looked at me with a shocked expression “I won’t force any of you to come with me, but I have to go, my mate is there and if the rogue had the balls to take my mate there then why can’t I?”

“We will go Alpha!” Nate, cody, Ryan and Antonio said with a determined expression.

“We will go too. Our Luna should be the first priority.” The other guy said and the else nodded in agreement. I smiled and went to the weapon room. We wore out defence suits and loded our revolvers with silver and wolfsbane bullets.

When everyone was ready we headed to the dark forest.

“Now, I really appreciate that you all decided to help and come here, but if anyone wants to back off, they can do it now i won’t mind.” No one moved for a good two minutes so i continued “Ok, so the dark forest is not that big in area but not that small either. I’m sure that these rogues have something planned. So keep eyes on everything and be alert. Any signs of my mate tell me and if you find the head rogue, don’t kill him. Drag him to the level 13 cells in the warehouse”

They nodded and we marched towards the dark forest. I don’t feel frightened going in there. The only emotion in me right now anger and disappointment.

Angry at the rogue that took my life source from me and disappointed in myself that i couldn’t do anything about it. I don’t know what my bella is going through.

I swear if they touch one hair on her head, he will be begging me to kill him.

We covered some about 10 miles in when i felt my heart race

We covered some about 10 miles in when i felt my heart race. Only her presence can make me feel this way. It gave me a sense of hope that my bella is close by. My steps turned into strides as i looked around, now more alert.

We searched for a long time but found nothing, although the feeling din’t stop.

“Aaa” a small yelp was heard from a mile away. The scattered warriors followed me in that direction.

There one of my warrior’s​ leg was stuck in a wooden floor. Where did that come from? While some helped the warrior, I scrapped the grass around the plank and found a trap door.

‘Damien let me take control for a while i can sense her better’ dom said. As much as i want to argue, i know he is right.

‘only if you give me control once we find her’

‘i promise! Now don’t waste time! I can feel she is in pain!’

‘what!?’

Dom was fast in taking control.

Dom’s pov (surprise! Surprise!)

Mate!

Mate hurt!

That was the only thought running in my mind while my men tried to open the door. The trap was finally yanked open and the faint smell of honey and cinnamon hit me. She is here! Mate! Mate!

Not waiting for anyone, i descended down the stairs. There was a big room lit with dim lights here​ and there.

No guards? Fishy…

Taking cautious steps i make my way around the room. There are voices coming from a room across.

By now the warriors had come down too. I motioned towards the door and they followed me.

I kicked the door open and saw around 50 rogues drinking and having fun!

My mate might be going through god knows what! And they are enjoying!? Maybe they were involved too.

That made me even more mad.

My men charged at them and they were all dead within 10 minutes. Puny rogues. Can’t even fight!

We left their corpses there and dispersed to find bella. The anticipation was killing me. The moment I find her, I will stick to her like a leech. I can barely survive when my baby is not with me.

I entered a corridor with many metal doors. Her scent became strong here. She is here! So close!

I opened every door in the corridor. Surprisingly all were open, except the last one.

A loud yelp was heard from the other side of the door​. I can recognise her angelic voice anywhere. My baby! What did he do to her!?

My warriors were beside me in a flash and i kicked open the door.

What i saw horrified me. The scene​ was enough for a lifetime​ of nightmares for me. My baby! My bella!

She was chained with silver chains around her hands and legs. Her hair and dress was a mess. Her body full of bruises. And a man standing over her with a whip in his hand.

His hand stopped midair when he heard us.

“Ah, Alpha Damien. Your presence was much awaited” he chuckled, the voice sounded familiar, but i couldn’t point my finger on it.

“Get him!” I odered my warriors and they charged. He turned around and my breath hitched.

Taking the opportunity Damien took control.

Damien’s pov

How could he! How could he do this to me! I was the one who helped him and he repaid me in such a cruel way! Fine! If he wants to play dirty, then we shall!

The face din’t stop my warriors from dragging him where he belongs. He din’t fight back which confused me a little. But that can be dealt with later.

Now my babygirl!

As soon as they were out i ran to her and dropped on my knees before her. She was barely consious and her skin was sickly pale. What did he possibly do to her in one day that made her this weak. He dress was tattered and her whole face was swollen. But still she was the most beautiful and adorable girl in the world for me.

I pulled out my revolver and shot the chains. The lock on the chains broke and I picked her up and placed her on my lap.

“Baby? Can you hear me?” I asked cradling her face in my palm. Her swollen eyes flutter open and a small smile tugged on her pale, chipped lips.

“D-Da-Damien?” She croaked. The sound broke my heart but i nodded and pulled her face to my chest and rocked her back and forth.

Tears welled in my eyes but I didn’t let them fall.

“Yes baby. I’m here now. No one will hurt you, i promise!” I said and when i dint get a response i pulled away and saw her eyes closed. I panicked and checked her breathing. She was breathing but her pulse is low and her heart is beating extremely slow.

I picked her up and ran towards the pack house. I mind linked the doctor on the way and told her to get everything​ ready.

When i reached the doctor i placed bella on the bed. The doctor entered and examined bella.

Suddenly the doctors face paled and her eyes widened. She looked at me with fear in her eyes and then back at bella.

“What’s wrong?” I demanded.

She gulped and answered.

“Alpha, who ever took our Luna, injected her with a heavy dose of aconite. It’s a very deadly poison to werewolves besides wolfsbane. I doubt she will survive.”

No…!
