Chapter 203: Selene needs your help...
Xavier POV
I paced my room, biting my fingers as Selene’s call came in for the thousandth time in the last few minutes. I was scared of picking up her call. What excuse was I supposed to give her about the girls? One minute, I left them outside playing the next minute they were missing.
Their tracking devices were found somewhere outside the pack house, and their phones and personal identifiers on them were found at different locations outside the pack house. I was scared to death... if anything should happen to them, I would never be able to forgive myself.
There was a knock on the door before it opened and Lucius entered the room, an exhausted look on his face. He looked even more tired these days than I remember. His eyes were sunken in and almost hollow, he looked sick.
Instinctively, I walked up to him "Are you alright, Man?" I asked running my eyes all over his body "You look like you could use some rest?"
"I’m fine," he swatted my hand, glaring at me "Let’s focus on the girls, Selene has been calling me non-stop and it’s been three days already. We need to let her know. She’s their mother and she must have sensed that something is wrong,".
"If Selene knows that I lost the girls, I might as well say goodbye to fatherhood. She’d never let them come within an inch of me. You know how intense she can be when she wants to. We just need to look for the girls more, please?"
"Xavier," Lucius sighed exhaling "The girls are no longer in the capital. We’ve combed every shrub, every tree and every grass and there’s no sign of them. Not even footprints or something to indicate that they were here. It was a clean job and we can no longer keep it away from her. Also, I heard a rather strange news this morning,".
"Strange news?" I eyed him curiously "What about?"
"About Noah, heard he was in some sort of accident and no one knows if he has recovered or died. What if she has been trying to seek for help from us and we weren’t taking her calls? Have you considered that possibility? Knowing who your family is... with Noah out of the way, they might have gone berserk, your mother especially,".
"Shit!" I murmured as my heart began to pound violently; I had forgotten the kind of mom I had. On cue, Selene’s call came in again. I hesitated for a second before I clicked on the answer button.
