Chapter fifty-nine
“I think we lost her trail.” Blaze let out. His eyes moved around the large hall, and he stared at each of their solemn faces before letting his eyes stay on Sandro. “Did you find something?”
“I found nothing except for a damned ripped dress.” Sandro recognised the dress with him. He had ripped it whilst he forcefully had his way with her. He tossed the ruined material to the floor, and his gaze darkened.
“What is the development on her whereabouts?” His gaze stayed on James before going to Blaze.
“I think we are a bit too late,” Blaze said. “But, I already sent out the other members to search thoroughly for her, and I am sure before noon, new information about her will be gotten.”
“Very well,” Sandro nodded. He wasn’t satisfied with the news, but that wasn’t his main focus.
He had other pressing issues, and killing Arabella was the last thing he’d like to do. “We have a far more important thing at the moment, and I’d like the Gammas to pay attention.”
Kendall, the leader of the Gamma, stood to his feet.
“We found the Rose, and you all know her significance. I do not need to mention that again.” Sandro paused.
He stared at each member before he continued. “We are going on a mission. And I doubt I am the only one aware of this. I know other Alpha werewolves and mafia bosses will send their strongest members to search for her. She’s leaving, and we need to get to her before anyone else does.”
“What do we need to do, Alpha?” Kendall asked.
“Good question.” Said Sandro. “The five strongest in your team, bring them out, and so should other team leaders do the same.”
“Isn’t that too much for a powerless girl? I mean, that will be hella suspicious if we try acting normal, and we might get in trouble.” Janice let out.
“Of course, we are not going for her at once. It is to be on alert in case a rival gang or pack opens fire on us.” Sandro grin.
He thought of the plan he had carefully laid out; it was foolproof, he believed that. He could smell their victory already.
“But I feel it’s too many for someone as small as she is,” Janice murmured.
“I don’t think so,” Francis said. He leaned forward. “She won’t be going alone and imagine some powerful supernatural creature were seen with her? I heard the family had histories with Vampires. Those creatures are their protector, so I doubt Miss Delicate Rose will be walking alone.”
“Well, if that is the case, it makes sense then,” She said.
Her attention snapped back to Sandro.
“Soon, this will be the most powerful pack, and we will take over the world.”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Janice grimaced. She didn’t like the glint in Sandro’s eyes, and somehow she wished they could be stopped by someone or anything.

“I hope this works,” Janice murmured. She gripped the moon-shaped pendant of the necklace she donned and shot a glance at Blaze.
Goodness, she was fucking nervous. She wished he was closer to her. A hug from him would have assured her that everything would be fine.
But she could only stare at him where he was huddled near James in the shrubs.
Rubbing her clammy palms against the stone-washed boot-cut jeans she wore, a bright smile formed on her face as she hurried down the road.
She gasped, halting in the centre of the road and her eyes rounded as a car sped towards her.
“Perfect,” she murmured. Her body trembled slightly, and her heart palpitated. However, she didn’t move from where she stood.
Her eyes widened more, and her mouth hung open. She was convinced that was the best expression of shock.
The car halted before it slammed into her, and Janice keeled over.
“Good acting.” Blaze chuckled, observing what was going on.
He knew Janice could pull it off better than Thalia, whom Sandro had wanted to use.
“When are we going to attack?” Jake, a delta, asked through the transmitter.
“On my order.” Said, Blaze.
His ears perked up as he listened to what was transpiring between Janice and the bulky man that had stepped down from the car.
“It is a lady, and I do not think we hit her. But, she seems to be in shock.”
“On three,” Blaze murmured.
The door to the passenger opened, and he glimpsed long legs sporting bright red heels, then creamy skin and a red hat atop dark brown hair.
“T…Two…” Blaze faltered as he glimpsed the face of the lady.
Except for the curls on her hair and the slightly darker skin tone, he could have sworn he was staring at Arabella.
Her blue eyes twinkled as she slipped out of the dark glasses she had donned. And her full lips twisted in a wry smile as though being held up by someone insignificant was the last thing she wanted.
Her picture didn’t do her justice. She even looked more like Arabella than he thought.
And he was literally ogling her and couldn’t seem to look away.
“Beta…”
James’ voice snapped him out of the daze he had been in.
Delicate Rose was hot but ogling her wasn’t part of the plan. He pushed the thoughts of her being similar to Arabella out of his mind and turned to James. “We attack now.”
James nodded, slipping out of the hiding place. He darted towards the car in the company of four other Deltas.
Blaze heaved a breath as they knocked out all her guards quickly without his interference. Then, he led Delicate Rose back to the car.
Janice sprinted towards him, and he frowned as he glimpsed the alarmed look on her face.
“We need to fucking leave here!” She shouted.
“Why? And yes, we’ll be on our way soon since we capture her already.” Blaze said.
“I do not care about her!” Janice glared. “The people that were knocked out are mere humans, and the real escorts(Vampires) are on the way. Not only that, but I heard another mafia group was on their trail!”
The hair at the back of Blaze’s neck prickled. He felt it. They were near, and she wasn’t lying!
Blaze gripped Janice’s hand and dashed towards the cars, slamming each open door shut.
“Leave. Do not fucking stop, and make sure to lose each trail following you.” James nodded, and without questions, he turned the ignition driving off.
He climbed on the motorbike he had come on and handed Janice his helmet.
“Wear this and hold on to me as tight as you can. I’m exceeding the speed limit, and do not worry; I’ll be as careful as possible.” He added as she shivered.
Janice did as he told her and held on to him as he drove out of the lot.
