Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

Hours.

Four terrible long hours just sitting in a car waiting, anticipating and longing to arrive.

The minute Niall and I got back to the Alpha house, he quickly explained everything to Jared and Asia while I packed a few things for us.

They were already waiting at the door when we got back. Every wolf in the pack heard my howl, and that included them. I wasn't surprised when I saw Asia's concern though; any wolf could understand what a howl like that meant.

We didn't know how long we would be gone for, but I knew for sure that if it was more than three days, I had to let Niall go back home. I need my mate, but a pack needs its Alpha and I couldn't keep him from his pack any longer than three days.

This seemed to have the worst timing ever. Just when I am a day away from having my heat this happened. It's like the universe has a vendetta against me or something.

"Hey it's gonna be okay" Niall whispered from beside me. He held my hand with his free one, and everything in me wanted to believe him but I couldn't.

I simply nodded and focused my attention on the trees rushing past me in a blur. The speed that Niall was going surely trimmed a hour or two off our journey, so I knew we were close by. But strangely it wasn't fast enough to soothe the burning in my chest.

"I just hope she's okay" I mumbled, my legs shaking like a leaf.

"She will be," he assured me. I hoped he was right.

The anticipation was killing me. I was close enough to feel the link to them , but no one was responding to my mindlink. I was still a Brightwater pack wolf until Niall mixed his blood with mine to make me a Truemoon Pack wolf, so even though I could mindlink with Niall through our mate bond, I still could link my family and anyone in this pack once I was within linking range.

Only if they were answering.

It just scared me even more. Was it that bad to the fact that they all shut down their links? I couldn't think straight.

Victoria's a human, she doesn't heal as fast as wolves do. The chance of a wolf surviving an accident is higher since we heal faster. But Victoria? I couldn't wrap my head around it.

felt like hours since we were all sitting in the room. We had a few calls from Luka's brother and sister, Emma and Ty, in England while we waited. They all had an unbreakable bond that I could never understand, so I

would keep them posted. Ty had to run the biggest pack in England after all; that's not something you can just leave from doing like what Niall did. And Emma was the Beta's mate, so if she left, he would too. Whenever I went there growing up, they always seemed so busy so I knew they couldn't leave so

all had the same wish: that she would be
