Chapter 241: Jade is more dangerous than you know...
Noah POV
I paced my office restlessly. It had been hours since Selene’s departure and the knot of worry in my stomach only grew with each passing minute. I should have heard something by now – a message, a call, anything to confirm her safe arrival at the mountain sanctuary.
Right now, I didn’t even know what to worry about.
About the threat outside our walls that thankfully our soldiers had it under control or my wife and unborn child that had to be shipped outside the pack to keep them safe.
A knock at the door interrupted my anxious thoughts. "Come in," I called out pretending to be busy with the pile of paperwork on my table. I couldn’t show that I was worried, everyone here relied on me and I couldn’t let them know that I was worried.
Beta Reid stepped into the room and I raised my gaze to look at him, hoping for good news but that was when I noticed his face was grave.
"Your Majesty, we have a situation,".
My heart sank as I rose from my seat immediately working around the table to meet him. "What is it? Is it Selene?"
Reid nodded; his expression pained. "We’ve lost contact with her convoy. The last check-in was over two hours ago, and they’re not responding to any of our attempts to communicate. We’ve sent out spy drones to scan the area and we picked up their scent three miles away from the Pack lands but nothing more after that,".
