Plus the Alpha really hated when his sleep was disturbed. If it wasn’t an emergency that directly affected him then he wanted. to
be left alone,
Jessy missing was an emergency for me, the biggest emergency could ever have but that wasn’t the Alpha’s problem, it wasn’t
an emergency to him.
I didn’t understand the Alpha in the least but he didn’t look like someone that would jump out of his bed and run out of his room,
sacrificing his rest for the sake of one of his slaves.
With that thought in mind I went back down the stairs and headed in the direction of the kitchen.
There was no time to pause to think. The longer I stayed without Jessy, the worse her situation could get. I didn’t kn
where she was but I knew that I did not have a lot of time on my hands.
If she had been taken by Matthew then I had even less time,
pick vegetables from the garden to prepare the meals so there were no guards stationed outside there.
Beyond the garden though was a path that led into the woods. I wasn’t sure where the woods led to or what could be lurking
around in it. We were warned about ever using it but that was my first and only option of leaving the mansion.
The moment I got closer to the line of trees that led into the woods the familiar scent of my daughter settled in the air around me
and although it was fading off, like it had been a while that she had been there, I could still pick up on it.
And with hope filling me. I dashed into the woods, running as fast as my legs could carry me.
The wind made it more difficult to pick out the exact direction that Jessy had gone through but I kept following where her scent
was strongest and it led me deeper and deeper into the woods.
It was weird that I couldn’t pick out any other scent except my daughter’s. I knew that there was no way that Jessy would have
left the house by herself and come this far into the woods, but the deeper I went the more I could scent her.
Only her.
Thankfully the moon was full and it lit my path for me. I was scared and the fact that I had already come so far into the woods
with no sign of my daughter and no sign of an exit from the woods bothered me.
I was already panting in exhaustion and the dizzy spells I felt weren’t helping in the least. They both weren’t enough to deter me
The woods only seemed to go deeper and deeper with no end in sight and no signs of my daughter and that frustrated me.
Then I saw it up ahead.
The figure of my daughter and she seemed to be tied to a tree.
That gave me the boost I needed and in a few seconds flat I was beside my daughter, kneeling to observe the situation that
surrounded her.
“Jessy!” I called out but got no response.

Jessy’s head was hung low awkwardly and at first glance she looked to be sleeping. I began to try to loosen the ropes that
bound her and at the same time, try to get her to open her eyes
It became evident soon that my daughter wasn’t sleeping and was rather unconscious because after several attempts to rouse
her, she remained unmoving, which was very unlike her.
The ropes had been tied in a complex kriot and I struggled for awhile trying to get it to come apart. The more I tried to loosen it
the more it tangled.
Theard a branch break just behind me and I whipped my head in its direction
It happened so fast.
One moment I was trying to turn my head and in the next a searing pain was wracking into it, knocking me unconscious.
The last thing I saw was the large looming figure above me.
