"This boy is very stupid. This combination of paranormal beings!" Kimberly complains, sitting opposite Martin while Charles remains standing. The Betas sit on stools as they think of how to mind link him again.
"Can you summon the moon goddess and tell me what's wrong?" Kimberly asks.
"Can you follow me to the hut to scrutinize the area?"
"Can you take me to the area you perceive he might be from?"
"Can you…"
"Shut the heck up!" Charles barks at her, his voice echoing in Kimberly's skull.
"I don't know her problem." Martin says. "He's not even her son. She doesn't seem to really care about her daughter."
"She's a lost wolf." Kimberly mutters.
"So?" Charles fumes. "What do you mean by that? We should forget about her?"
"She's such an idiot." Martin says. "Why would you even think so?"
"My point of view is…" one of the Betas says but Martin comes in.
"That she is frustrated and ain't in her right senses? After all, did I ask you to talk?"
"I'm sorry, Alpha." He apologizes, staring at the second Beta. Martin's other Betas have gone to the field for their shifts. Now, I don't mean shifting of wolves. I mean the chosen hours for them to work."
"Now, get out." Alpha Martin shouts at the Beta.
"I said I am sorry, Alpha." The Beta apologizes again.
"The fact that you're glaring at him like an idiot…" Martin points at the second Beta. "...I need you two to be out. Now!"
Charles winks at them, and they storm out of the room. As soon as their feet get out from the room to the doorstep then outside the pack, Alpha Martin receives a mind link.
"From who?" Kimberly seems elated, as she asks and springs up from her seat.
"But, how?" Martin says without picking up the mind link.
"How, in what way?"
"It's Kellie mind linking me."
"Wow! Really?" George smiles widely as Kimberly's smiles clear off of her lips.
"You see…" Martin shrugs. "...she's not interested in her daughter anymore."
"Don't repeat it." Kimberly clips.
Martin picks up, "Hey, Kellie?"
"Yeah, sir." Kellie replies. "I'm right here in the tiger room pack house with no idea of escaping. We tried to but can't."
"You and who?"
"Those that took me away from you of course."
"You didn't get the way. Oh gosh. If George was right there, we would have gotten the address through him."
"George isn't here. In fact, we have decreased. Someone was killed and eaten by the monsters.
"You'll overcome, okay?" Martin encourages. "I'll tell Mum and Dad and we will try mind linking George again to know his whereabouts."
"He isn't home?"
"Why would he be home?"
"I see."
"Remember, you have such a responsible wolf, wizard, demon as a mate."
Kellie chuckles.
"Make sure you are fine, dear."
"Sure, I'll keep trying George here as well."
The mind link disconnects.
Martin sighs, and reclines his back on the chair. Kimberly seems more interested in knowing what he discussed about her daughter since Charles has spoken words into her ears, when Martin was mind Linking her.
"She's safe." Martin remarks.
"Is all what you can say?" Kimberly asks out of confusion.
"Don't confuse me." Martin retorts. "I thought you're not interested."
"Don't repeat it. I said that, remember?"
"To an Alpha?" Charles retorts.
"...that gets on one's nerves." Kimberly completes the statement.
"Hurray!!!" Martin suddenly shrieks with joy. "There's a mind link request from George."
"Wow." Kimberly's face gleams with joy as she smiles and seems more pretty.
Charles clears his throat, "hmm…"
"Don't sigh; let's expect the response. I'm glad, wow!"
"Hi Alpha. Do you copy?" George mind links Martin through his personal mind link.
"Yes, I copy. Where have you been?"
"I'm so sorry, Alpha. I'm stuck right here still looking for Kellie." George apologizes.
"She didn't mind link you?"
"No, she didn't. Maybe she hasn't. Maybe she did but it didn't go through."
"Exactly."
"How did you know?"
"She mind linked me, but couldn't tell me her location but with the little information gathered from her, I think there's a skull down the pathway leading to where she is."
"Really?" George replies. "Oh my goodness, I came across the skull while coming. Richard, one of Festus' Betas died."
"That's great to hear. You can mind link her if you don't get the location." Martin tells him. "And once you get there, alert us. Use the pack's mind link but connect your mum and dad with me only."
"Sure. I'll do my best."
"Anyone with you there?" Martin asks.
"Argh….aah...let me say no."
"Oh, oops. Make sure you're safe, and don't block your mind link, okay?"
"Sure."
The mind link disconnects.
Martin exhales sharply, and tells Charles and Kimberly the feedback.
*******
KELVIN, FESTUS, GEORGE SEARCHING FOR KELLIE THROUGH THE DESCRIPTION.
"George, we should be going now." Festus says. "Ain't you done yet?"
George adjust his sitting position, and breathes out, "Alpha Martin has confirmed it that Kellie somewhere near here.".
"Interesting!" Kelvin remarks. "How did he describe it?"
"The skull." He clips.
They all spring up from the seat, leaving pulling effects on it.
"Yes, I remember that." Festus says.
"Keep your smell intact. Your nostrils." Kelvin tells George. "And be aware you're in your human form."
"I have an idea. Why can't you mind link Kellie straightway?"
"I can't risk my life moving here without my powers on." George says, and transforms into his demon self immediately.
"But you can risk losing Kellie?"
He doesn't reply, he only hops and points at different direction, "here, there." He keeps repeating and they keep up with him, following him dearly until they get to the back of a house.
"The smell seems very strong now." Festus comments.
"That's the smell of your Betas, not my mate." George retorts, and Festus snickers.
"Do you think it's a good idea, George?" Kelvin asks. "Going in there with Festus. Would the pack members be interested in seeing him?"
"Maybe he should wait in this room." George points at the room Alexander is in, lying down and fuming.
They all creep inside the house as George endures the pain filming over his neck due to the nearness of his mate.
Kelvin and Festus, still in their demon invisible form, enter the room Alexander's in and he doesn't say anything since he can't see them but he can feel some sort of restoration in him.
"Don't say anything. Don't creep him out. Slow but steady." Kelvin advises Festus as he keeps being mute.
George hears the screams of Kellie as she complains of a sharp object splitting her neck into two.
George enters the room without knocking, and stares at Kellie and others. He smiles, getting to discover that he's found her. And as Austin wants to mind link Martin, George gets out of the room, changes to his human form so he won't creep them out, and then, knocks on the door.
"Who's it?" Austin says, and checks through a slit in the door. He shrieks and falls to the ground as he keeps claiming he saw a ghost.
"Even if it's a ghost…" Alfred says. '...aren't you brave enough to face him?"
Kellie walks straight to the door, and folds her arms across her chest as Douglas jerks the door open.
Then, George walks in, sighs, and screams as he hugs Kellie tightly.
"He found her again." Alfred comments. "So far he gives us what we require, he's free to take her with him."
George frowns at his speech, but lets it go behind him as he wouldn't want to vent in front of his mate now.
"I said it!" Austin barks. "She's a red wolf, responsible for stamping curses."
"Who's a red wolf?" George asks.
"No one." Douglas replies. "Now, are you up to give us what we require?"
"Do you know I should be here to kill you all!" George barks, still holding onto Kellie who's sobbing and rubbing the nape of her neck.
"Ask her." Austin says. "We lost one of us to save her."
Kellie nods to approve that.
"No, they are not your friends, okay?" George tells Kellie and she sniffles.
"One, two, three, four, five…" George counts, and comments. "Last time I checked, you were 6, that's the one person missing?"
"Actually no." Alfred retorts. "This man is from the wicked Festus, we've been holding him captive for a while now. We needed some information from you to attack the pack house at America but since you didn't, we moved on to this man."
"Okay?" George says. "So two have been lost?"
"One!" Douglas yells.
George's desires to spit on his forehead increases, but he tries his best to fight 'em back.
"The other one is in the room opposite us, angry at Kellie for spitting on him."
George regrets that he lets the desire go back in. If he'd fulfil it, they'd know he and Kellie surely has something in common.
Then, he looks forward to getting vexed by one of them. He kisses Kellie's forehead and then lips in front of them all. After few minutes, Alfred yells, "Help us!!! Or get away without her."
George, without thinking twice, moves a bit forward and spits on his forehead.
Commotion arise in the room as they all want to fight with George but they control themselves not to, as where they are hiding needs no noise or else, those monsters would break out and they would end up as Richard did.
