Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

I pulled up to my former home's driveway faster than I ever have. I quickly shut the engine off and ran into the house.

"Zoey?" Ashley called in confusion as I ran past her once I was inside. If it were any other circumstance, I would've stopped to talk to her, but I just needed to see Luka.

I bolted to his office, where I knew he spent most of his time. I knew Victoria was out of the hospital, hence why I really hoped that he wasn't in his bedroom with her. I didn't want Victoria to know about what was going on.

Luckily, Luka was in his office when I burst in without knocking. He was stunned by the intrusion as he quickly looked up from his work, but his features soon changed into confusion.

"You left two days ago and you miss us already?" There was a hint of amusement in his tone as he rounded his desk, but I was still catching my breath after running through the huge ass house.

"Luka..I-I need your...I need your silver bullet gun" I rushed out through breaths. His eyes widened a fraction at my request, and that's when he took in my attire. He bit his lip in thought and questioning, so I quickly reassured him of my reasons.

"Please Luka. Niall might be in trouble, and I need to be ready for anything. I'll bring it back as soon as I find him" This seemed to have shocked him even more, but I saw understanding forming behind his eyes.

He regarded me sternly, but I knew he had already made up his mind. "This is a very dangerous weapon Zoey, designed only for large rogue attacks. This will kill any wolf with a single bullet"

"I know. You're the one who taught me all about weapons, remember? I promise to keep it safe, but the one at Niall's pack is in a safe and only his or his dad's fingerprint can open it. I wouldn't have come this far if it wasn't urgent. Please Luka, you of all people should know what's it's like to worry about losing your mate"

I knew it was low bringing up what happened to his former mate and what nearly happened to Victoria, but I was running out of time and his paternal nature was clouding his judgement.

To my delight, he nodded once and led me to his weapon room. He retrieved the weapon from his own safe, and helped me tuck it safely away in my duty belt. I mumbled a quick 'thanks, love you' and got ready to leave, but he held onto my shoulder before I could go. I glanced back at him, seeing his concern evidently clear.

"If this is as dangerous as it sounds, do you want me to come with you? "

"No Luka I don't want Victoria knowing okay? She's still recovering so the last thing I need is for her worry about me and Niall. If you leave now, you'll have to tell her and I don't want that" I insisted. "And I already have back-up. I have a Gamma blood wolf and Niall's cousin who is also an Alpha helping me. I'm fine okay?" I purposely left out the part about Clarissa being a rogue. Gamma blood or not, Luka would spend a next hour lecturing me about trusting her.

"Just be careful okay?" He pulled me to his chest, gently kissing my forehead before releasing me.

I wasted no time in bolting up the staircase and towards the exit, but at my car door was my nephew, Levi. I sighed, not necessarily annoyed, but frustrated by all the time I was losing.

"Levi you know I love you, but I have to be somewhere really urgent okay bud?" I said as I approached him.

As a kid, he always had a look on his face that made me know something was bothering him and only wanted to talk to me about it. He had that exact same look on his face now.
