my mobile and checked my schedule. “Every meeting has been done already, nothing for the rest of the day. Lyra was taken to hospital. I think I should go around there.” I said. “Alright, by the time you get back I should be done.” She responded. I left the room still a bit dazed about everything and took the elevator down. I got my car and drove off tracking her scent to the nearest hospital. I walked into the hospital and her scent became even more stronger. I walked up to the reception. “Hi, Lyra Mucker was admitted here. I would like to see her please.” I requested. “I think she is currently sleeping now. When she came in she was out of it. The doctor is currently on a break but she is in ward nine, room four.” She responded and I made my way to Lyra. I know this is wrong of me to do but I need to know if she is okay. I stood outside the door peeking through the window. She was sleeping and I slowly opened the door. I walked over to the bed, she was so beautiful but I could see the years of strain on her. I could see it all over her body, her skin and her hands. She looked really weak. I walked over to the table with her file on it and looked through it. Fuck she almost had a stroke because of her rejecting me, as I went to the next page the heart monitor started beeping really fast. I looked up at it, it was increasing. Its starting again! I closed the file and rushed out the room and out the hospital. I took my mobile out, “Em, are you done yet?” I asked. “Almost but here are some serious things you need to look at okay.” She responded. I ended the call and sat in the car. I quickly called Em again. “Sorry, I’m just in a bad space right now. I will tell you everything when we meet up but I just need you to send me her current address. I want to check out her place while she is here at the hospital.” I said. “It’s okay, don’t worry. Plus, you will be over your head once you read all about her too. I’m sending it as we speak.” She replied. “Thank you I got it.” We ended the call and I drove to her apartment. It was not far away so I arrived in no time at her place. It wasn’t too bad looking and I got out of the car making my way up to the drive way. The door was obviously locked but good thing my lock picking skills is amazing. It was not long before I got access and walked in. when I walked in I was really in shock. The place was dirty, I picked up on cocaine residue on a table and cigarette buds. What life was my mate living? I quickly picked up my mobile and dialled my personal cleaning services. “Hi Kathy, it’s me Flynn here. I’m going to be sending you a location that I want you to please do a massive clean-up. And when I mean a massive clean-up; I myself want to eat off the floors and walls please.” I requested. “Yes, Mr Gordan, not a problem. Anything else?” She asked. “Yes, and my usual order for flowers please on a weekly basis. I will send you a text of what should be written on the card too.” I replied and we cut lines. I left the apartment and made my way back to Emily at the hotel. Before I went to her room I decided to first take a shower and get out of this suit. It wrenches of sweat and booze from the day. The sun was busy setting already and I was hungry as fuck. Once I was done dressing I walked over to Emily who was in her room. Today was not a busy day for her. We both just had morning appointments and the rest of the day was free. “Hi Em.” I said opening the door. “Wow Flynn, since when have you stopped knocking?” she asked squealing. “Since your door was a few inches open.” I replied. I took a seat on her bed sighing and sitting against the wall. “So, what do you have for me?” I asked. “Well to be straight forward and honest. When Lyra was banished from the pack, she was captured by the Yeeler pack. She was treated like a true rogue, everyone’s punching bag.” She explained and I took a deep sigh slipping further into Emily’s bed in disbelief. “Should I continue?” she asked. “Yes, go on.” I said heavily. “Lyra was beaten and abused from her pack days to the Yeeler pack. She escaped when she befriended herself with a runaway witch. My cousin, Ameena Cortze.” She said. “Your Cousin?” I asked. “Yeah but she is dead. “I stated. “Why and how?” I asked. “Well like myself, I am at risk. Plenty of witches ran away from being under rule by the coven. This is the reason why I cloaked myself to not be tracked also why I barely use magic. Ameena, well she was a risk taker and got executed.” She explained. “Alright, I’m sorry to hear. Do carry on.” I said. “Once Lyra escaped she came to Las Vegas where she settled in. Her mother’s cousin Joanne somehow tracked her here and moved to Las Vegas to look after her. Lyra has been in a mental institution twice in one year about a year after escaping. She tried killing herself multiple times. She is depressed and not sober. Flynn, she is a cocaine addict, a stripper and has been with multiple men. As much as what I want you to be happy but she has a lot of baggage. The addiction can be healed or probably has started already because both you’re wolfs have connected already so that is not a problem. It’s her hurt, betrayal and abuse that is worrying me.” She explained. I laid on the bed staring into space. I was shocked about the information yes but sad about it. I felt so much sadness about everything that she has gone through, to take your own life must be a very deep hole that you are in or was at the time. “You okay?” Emily asked. “I will be, thank you for the information. I’m going for a run.” I said getting up from the bed. “A run?” she asked. “You only do that on the full moon.” She stated. “Yeah but I have endured too much in one day and my wolf will go crazy.” I stated. I got up, kissed Emmy on the head and left the room. It was really late already, I checked the time and it was around 20:58. I went down to my car and got in, taking a drive. I first drove past Lyra’s place and saw the lights on. She must be home which is a good sign. I decided to go to the fishing moat which was connected to a campsite. I needed to let go a bit. I parked the car in a safe place and took a walk into the campsite. It was quiet this time of the year and nobody in sight. Without waiting another second, I stretched out a little and burst into my wolf landing on my paws. I did not run but rather trotted up onto the deck that led across the water. I sat on my hind legs looking up the stars, the lake was quiet, soft and calming tonight. The full moon is approaching and its silencing nature. Once full moon strikes everything that is part of the supernatural will wake. I laid down onto my front paws and thought hard on how I would be able to heal Lyra, how am I able to? Where do I even start? She’s my mate and I need to help her. My mind drifted off slowly and my eyes closed.
A few hours later I heard my mobile ringing. I pecked up my ear; it’s coming from the car. Wait what? Shit I’m still in wolf form and the sun is rising already. I quickly transformed back and ran to the car to get dressed. “Hello Em” I answered the call. “Flynn, where are you? the sun is almost out and you did not sleep yet!” she said worried. “I’m okay don’t worry, I slept by the lake, can you believe it; I was in wolf form. I swear if you did not call me I would have slept further in wolf form. But it was so amazing though, I haven’t done that in years. It felt so right.” I explained to her. “Just come to the hotel please, its urgent.” She said and disconnected the call. Oh, what happened now I thought to myself. I got into the car and sped to the hotel, I dashed for the elevator and made my way up. “Emmy, open its me.” I said knocking. “It’s open, come in!” She shouted. I walked in and her bed was covered in blood. “Emily what is going on?” I shouted. “Your whole bed is covered in blood, are you hurt? Who did this?” I screamed. She came from the bathroom in her robe. “I woke up like this. Its either the coven that found me or the ancestors sending me a message. I’m fine don’t worry. No cuts and bruises.” She explained. “Now what does this mean?” I asked. “I can find out but it would require a lot of magic which means I will put myself on the radar Flynn.” She explained. “So, what now because a bed full of blood means some serious fucking business. We can’t just let it go or slide. We need to find out.” I said. “Well there is one option.” She said. “What?” I asked. “We get a witch, someone who we can trust to find out and to decrypt the messages. Your schedule is clear for the next three days giving us some time to sort things out.” She said. “Why is my schedule clear for three days?” I asked. “Well because it is and you know it depends on the interest of investors and currently there is none. Can we just focus on this please? You have enough money to splash around. I’m sure three days won’t do any harm to your bank account.” She stated. I looked at her terrified and unsure of what is happening. “Okay so where do we find a witch?” I asked. “Here is one in Las Vegas, I picked up on her aurora when we arrived. I did some research and she works at a nearby mall. Can you go check it?” she asked. “Yes sure, give me the information.” I said rubbing my temples and leaning against the wall. She handed me the paper and I pulled her close to give her a hug. “Don’t worry Em, we have been through worse okay. We will get through this.” I said and left the room. I just stopped by my room to take a shower and change clothes and headed out the hotel again. I went towards the mall that Emmy mentioned and quickly parked the car. I stepped out and immediately I tracked Lyra’s scent. “She’s here.” I said out loud. Fuck I thought to myself and made my way towards the entrance of the mall. I walked trying to find the damn shop that Emmy mentioned. Santina Couter was the stores name and apparently sold evening gowns. I stopped by a security guard and asked him directions to which he gave me accurately and I easily found it. I walked into the store and went up to the store assistant that worked there; “Hi I’m looking for Santina Winter.”
