Chapter 77

Axton POV

Trying Alpha Thomas and Soyer again, but neither answered. Giving up. I growl, pulling into the council chambers huge iron gates. “She’s here, I can feel her,” Khan tells me. I nod because I feel she is close also.

My stomach sinks as I pull into the parking lot next to her car. I stare up at the huge council building. The night was foggy and dark, illuminated only by the faint yellow light of the moon pecking through the thick clouds. Lightning in the distance, just breaking through the fog, makes everything look white with each flash. The smell of rain in the air raises goosebumps. We would get a huge storm, that I was certain of The feel of the air around me is charged, not like when I first left; it is chilly, and now the air is warmer and thicker.

In the distance, I can see pack members carrying torches, fanning out, and searching the area for Elena. The council building looms before me, a large, imposing structure made of dark stone walls. Its windows were high and barred. Climbing out of the car, I hear the sound of a loud engine. This makes me turn toward the gates in time to see the lights of cars entering the gates.

He looks around, surveys the area, and then strides toward me.

“Sorry, I got here as fast as I could. I drove by Soyer’s place to see if he was home. Neither his nor his wife’s car were there.” Osiris tells me, and I nod, looking up at the building.

“Come on,” I tell him, knowing our men were waiting for one of us to let them in. Jogging to the front door, I unlock it and rush in to turn off the alarm, but it’s already off Osiris tries the lights, but they don’t turn on. Osiris turns to one of his men. “Find the circuit breaker. Get these lights back on.” Osiris orders as our men start rushing inside to search the building.

“And you’re sure she is still here?” Osiris asks, and I nod.

“The bond, I can feel her, but she isn’t conscious,” I tell him as Eli rushes in, just in jeans, his chest bare, and his hair poking in every direction.

“Anything?” he asks, and I shake my head.
