CHAPTER THIRTEEN???

Alpha Kane's pov
I puffed out a thick cloud of smoke from the blunt I was smoking. It's Friday night, and the routine for Friday was to smoke, drink and have sex with any female wolf in the Brown moss pack and when I say any female wolf, I meant I was never limited when it came to people I fucked. Whether mated or un-mated. Singles or married. Widowers or divorced. Virgins or non-virgins—I slept with them all and no one, not even their husbands or mates or fathers dared to stand in my way. I was the Alpha of the Brown moss pack and no one dared altered my demands or said no to me.?
But unlike the past Fridays when I had thousands of women flocking around me, I had chased the few that came to sit with me or danced for me. My favorite strip club for Friday night's became somehow docile. There was this type of fun I craved that I wasn't getting. Neither the blasting music, alcohol, blunts nor could even the women provide. I had already fucked three girls. All at a time, but my libido wasn't satisfied. I was with my friends but I felt like shit, at a point the alcohol lost its usual rush-push taste in my mouth and tasted like water.
"What's wrong Alpha? You don't look normal?" Arlo, the pack's beta's and my best friend asked me.
"I don't know dude, everything seems bleak and hazy to me" I replied.
"Maybe you should spice things up a little," Pax added. Pax was the pack's gamma and a part of my best friend "maybe bursts a bit or something. That should help right?" He asked with his signature smug look. I knew what he meant but I internally waved off the idea.
"I could summon one of the shawties for you—or more,"?Arlo added.
"I've done that and it proved to be a total waste of time" I replied to Arlo "I'm tired of them girls bro…plus you have a very bland taste for ladies so no, I'll pass"?
"Maybe I could be of help then. Arlo has bland women's taste. Mine is spicy" Pax said, which earned him a smack on the head from Arlo 'I know of this one shawty you'd never get tired of or resist" he concluded with a wink.
"Who?" Both Arlo and I asked together, calling a shotgun.
"Maggie!" Pax stated as though asking was the most foolish thing I've ever done.
At the mention of Maggie's name, something inside of me tinged, and I couldn't help the devilish grin that appeared on my face. Maybe it was how I was always in control whenever it was her I was dealing with. There was this great fulfillment I got whenever I banged her. She was always as docile as a cat, fulfilling my demands the way I wanted and opted, unlike Fiona would do. And man, was she damn tight?
I got her because I needed to call a truce. Her late father owed me a good amount of money and her uncle who is alive didn't want to pay and so, offered Maggie in exchange for her father's fee. A very good exchange if you ask me. She was the last add-on to my favorite so far, but she was my favorite.
"Maggie? Robert's sister" Arlo asked with slight discomfort.
"Do you know of a different one?" Pax teased and Arlo sent him a glare strong enough to fall off a mountain.
Arlo and I have known each other since we were kids. We practically grew up together with my brother Julian, Ryder, Robert, Pax, Greyson, and a few others. Fiona and Clara were one of the very few females we socialized with. I only became closer with Arlo, Fiona, and Pax from the lots when our parents died when we were twenty years of age. Once it was time to get a new Alpha, my brother Julian thought it was sweet to butt his cute little ass in my way. Of course, he never succeeds. The moon goddess and Lycan king had to interfere though, and in the end, we both became Alphas as my father's kingdom, which was once known as the Green moss Brown moss pack, was divided into two halves. I being the king of the Brown moss pack and Julian, reigning as King of the Green moss pack.
Once the split was made, it was common sense that Julian and I got followed by the people that were closest to us. Julian had always been the level-headed one amongst the two of us and so was the part of our friends that we were closest to him. Greyson, Ryder, and Clara. Back then in high school and college, they would always read together and do other forms of calm kinds of stuff together. Sometimes, they even accompany my father to meetings and my mother to go shopping, which made us give him the nickname 'the parents' eyes.
It wasn't news that I caused havoc back then in school and even when we were much younger. From breaking into the teacher's offices to vandalizing both school and teachers' property together also, we bullied any of the soft-as-a-butter types of students and of course the naturally cursed—the Omega's.?
?Arlo, Robert, and Pax were an accomplice in all of this charade until something happened between Arlo and Robert and we all cut Robert off. That side apart, his late father committed treason against me and the pack. I would have killed him and his kid sister if not for the bond we once shared and the additional fact that he was the one that ratted his father out. I've never seen loyalty as such before,? so instead of killing him and his sister alongside their parents, we made him retain a position in the pack but of course, Arlo still couldn't forgive him because of their inside beef.
?Fiona on the other hand, was always there with us; she was the one on the lookout whenever we had mischief to execute, and anytime we wanted to pin down a male teacher or lecturer, we sent her in as our Lilly. Fiona is beautiful, curvy, and impossible to resist much to our advantage and more so to me. Although I fucked and I'm still fucking a lot of female wolves, Fiona had always been a constant. I've been fucking her since I learned to fuck. She was my first, as I was her's. So when the split came and my brother and his boring friends needed to separate, I made them my beta, gamma, and Zeta, and ever since, we all became the inseparable dangerous trio, as we ruled and took down our enemies together.
"If I don't know any better, I'd say you have a thing for her," I said as I took a swig of my buzz.
"Scratch that," Arlo said and looked at me irritably. I knew he hated the idea of having a taste of my woman like I hated to see my brother. That was only a mere tease and he fell for it. The look on his face was enough to make me laugh.
"What's so funny?" Arlo asked, rolling his eyes.
"Man! Did you see your face?" Pax said amidst chuckles, which made me smile.
"I know what that smile means man. Go do your thing. We'll be here keeping the records for you" Arlo said.
"I want a taste too man. Be kind enough to not exhaust her" Pax said and got an irritated expression from Arlo.
"The hell dude" he scolded before taking a large gulp from his beer mug.
"What? I was just saying… have you seen the girl? She looks fire. Even in her extra-large clothes, I can still see the outlines of her hips and her extra, extra perky breast. Plus you once said we could share your flings as long as…" Arlo didn't let Pax finish his statement and smacked him on his head.
"Say one more slurry comment about her and see what would become of your prick" Arlo threatened and Pax raised his hand in mock surrender.
I shook them both before I exited the pack's number one clubhouse like it was usually called and headed straight for the packhouse.
"Get me Maggie" I ordered the head of slaves who shivered in fear.
"She isn't here" she stuttered, her brother trembling with fear.
"Where is she?" I barked.
"I d-don't k-no-w" she stuttered again, her face down casted as she stared on her feet?
"Go get her for me" I ordered and immediately she scampered away but upon second thoughts, I called her back. "Get lost," I said before walking towards the packs' slave quarters. She would have to pay for the extra trouble and stress she had me do through just to see her—her low, very disgusting, and unfortunate self.
"Your Highness. I don't know where she is" she said again, and that one finally piqued my mind.
"What do you mean you don't know where she is?" I asked, bringing my hands out of my pocket.
"I haven't seen her for two days now. It's like she suddenly disappeared"
"Cut the crap" I seethed and inserted my hands into my pocket. "Fetch me Maggie or consider yourself the next dinner of the pack " the moment the words left my mouth, she dropped to her knees and began to beg me.
What did she mean by Maggie having gone missing for two days? How is that even possible? What happened to the guards? How did she get past them??
What the fuck?
With fury and a thousand questions blasting in my mind, I thought of what could be the place Maggie had gone to. I matched to her tiny room and true to the head slave's words, there was no sign of her and the pecks of dust and string of cobwebs that had gathered in her room were a furtherance confirmation that she hadn't been in the room for a while now.
A yellow sticky paper on her worn-out furniture piqued my eyes and I went to pick it up. I read the note and in that instant, I concluded that she had not gone missing on her own.?
Her note stated she was going for a walk…perhaps, she got lost in the Woods or some angry hungry beast had attacked her. It could also be that one of the horny male wolves that had thirsted her fluid for a long while saw her going into the woods and after raping her, killed her.?
It could be one of the guards. I had thousands of things to do and I want to do them. So many ideas to help me answer my thudding question but first, the guards need to hear from me. I needed answers to my question and it doesn't help that Viper was everywhere in my head
I mind-linked Arlo and asked him to assemble all the guards for me. Both those and duty and the ones that weren't. That being done, I jogged to my bedroom and entered my secret Chambers. With a line of incantation, a portal to the otherworld opened and Zoey and Lilly appeared before me. Hastily, I stepped into it, and the heat that suddenly rose in my body confirmed where I was.
"How may we help you, your eminence?" Zoey asked in her insanely sugary voice. I felt the echoes resound in my head.
"I need to find someone…Maggie Leif" I answered irritably.?
"A lady I see," Lilly said sardonically, her irises going off and on with intrigue. With her wand outstretched, and their eyes closed, she said a series of incantations while the smoke from their incense pot rose.
It took barely a second for a smaller portal to appear in a mirror and the scene from it made me clench my fist and gnash my teeth. My blood was boiling and Viper was on its edge. I turned back to the exit portal in fury but the words of Zoey made me stop in my tracks.
"Do not forget the cause of our loyalty and assistance to you, Kane."
"Remember not to bite the hand that feeds you" Lilly added, as she stared at me, eyeball to eyeball.
"I won't forget," I said with gritted teeth. My words almost came out like the sound of scattering ceramics. 'And you shouldn't forget why you must remain loyal to me".
