Chapter 61
They kept her drugged up for most of the time. It had only been a day, but Lori felt like she was losing her mind. The sedatives rubbed her off the wrong way. It was hard to keep a clear head when she was being injected every now and then
She didn’t have anything to eat, but they had brought in some water for her parched throat. Lori was inclined to reject it, but she had no choice. She was thirsty.
She took a few gulps and saved her strength. At least for a while.
She had to start thinking of a way out. The sedatives had finally worn off and she had to use her time wisely before they came back with another batch.
She closed her eyes and pictured Gabriel in her mind, if… if she could reach him somehow. if there was a way
She thought.
She tried harder and felt a slight tug. Like a pull in her mind.
Did it work?
Lori thought to herself as she sent a word down the band.
Gabriel?! Is that you?!
She asked nervously. There was no answer, for what seemed to be eternity.
Till she heard a voice, clear and strong in her head.
Lori where are you?!
Lori gasped in relief. Opening her eyes and sitting up quickly.
She looked around the basement. That was the problem, she had no fucking idea where she was. She had been drugged all the way here, but she didn’t think she was far away from him.
No, not really.
But maybe somewhere in the woods. Since the house was deathly quiet. She heard no voices. No whispers, only footsteps of people coming towards her. Nothing else.
In a basement! I’m in a basement! I don’t know where it is!
She sent the words down the band, waiting for a reply, concentrating even harder despite the dull ache in her head.
Who took you?
His voice was urgent, she could practically feel the anger all over them. And she knew it was not her, it was him. He was angry. Rightfully so, she had let herself be kidnapped.
Lyle. And a woman named
There was no response after that.
And before Lori could try to reach out again, the door rattled and someone opened it..
It startled her. So much so that she lost the connection.
It was Lyle. He had a menacing look on his face–Something about his leer reminded her of Asher. He was unsettling.
“What were you doing?!!”
He asked and Lori shrugged.
“Nothing.”
She took a small neptack the worry and der enden
Sabine smiled. It looked chilling.
“Don’t worry. He wont come close to you
She added as an afterthought
Why are you here?”
Lon demanded and Sabu
‘Like I said. You amuse me.”
“Do you know what
you are girth
The asked and Lori furrowed her eyebrows.
What did the mean? Did it have to do with what Gabriell told her about ban ne
I don’t know what you mean.

The sad
“You also had quite the interesting past.”
“Interesting?!
Lori asked as the scoffed.
“Nothing about it is interesting –”
She murmured and Sabine raised her eyebrow,
humant it coulde = possibly be that. She thought
“You’re right… it’s actually more of sad. After everything you’ve been through… you manage to end up in this predicament
“You put me in this predicament.”
She retorted and Sabine shrugged.
- WI.
not the one who was sleeping with an alpha who has enemin “
“You must have known you were bound to get hurt one way or another.”
“In the world of supernaturals humans are merely collateral damage.”
She laughed and Lori frowned deeply.
“It’s quite laughable really. After all you ve been through… you end up hentan some pawn in my gume.”
Sabine drew closer, a more softer expression on her harsh face. Her blue eyes searching Lori’s.
“Did you not learn anything from your past?”
“All that pain, all that violence, yet it didn’t manage to toughen you up. Only made you weaker it seemed.
She looked Lori up and down and Loni took another step back.
Chapter 61
“Honestly. I’m not surprised. But I need you to pull up every property she owns in this city, we will do a thorough sweep of each and every one of them. She’s probably the one funding this whole nonsense.”
“Understood.
Draco nodded.
“Any updates on the witch?
He asked
They had enlisted a witch’s help, at Draco’s request. Draco didn’t think it was normal than Gabriel couldn’t mind link Lori. It was true. Even though they were newly mated, he should have still been able to reach her.
Which made them guess that there were probably other powers in play.
It wasn’t unusual to enlist witch’s help in pack conflicts. It was just considered playing dirty.
Very dirty considering witches were loyal to nobody else but witches.
“She couldn’t find anything. She thinks Lori’s location may have been cloaked.”
Gabriel grunted.
“Im at the penthouse. Text me when you’re done.”
At the penthouse, Grace was gently rocking Emilia when he walked in. She quickly rushed towards him, worry etched in her features.
“Any news?!–
She asked and Gabriel shook his head.
“None.
He sighed.
Grace nodded, ber face do
downcast.
“I hope she didn’t give you any trouble…”
He asked and Grace shook her head.
“She has been very fussy. I think she can sense that something is wrong.”
Gabriel sighed.
“I know, I can feel her distress. She must miss LorL
“How could she not? Lori has been a mother to her.”
Gabriel felt a brief jab in his chest from Grace’s statement.
That bit was true
Lori was practically Emilia’s mother. Taking care of her like she was her own. Even more than he had done.
His phone rang again. And he groaned as he looked at the caller.
He really wasnt in the mood. She had called a few hours earlier and he had Draco call her back.
k explaining the situation. He had asked her to give him
Clearly she didn’t get the memo.

th how have you been? I can’t imagine what you’re going through.”
“Gabriel! Oh
Gabriel sighed.
“We still don’t know where she is.
Kate gasped.
“Oh I’m so sorry. I talked to my father… he’s willing to help in whatever way he can. He says his men are at your disposal.”
Woah. That was unexpected. But Gabriel didn’t mind. He would appreciate the extra help
He had to get his hands on Sabrina one way or the other… but, alphas didn’t help other alphas for free.
“I’m honored… but I think I can handle this on my own…
“Oh Gabrielt Don’t be so modest. I was so shattered when I heard the news! Lori and I got along so well… I was looking forward to seeing her again.”
“How’s Emilia? How is she doing?”
She pestered.
“She’s holding up…”
“And who’s taking care of her now?! I wouldn’t mind coming over and watching her for a while. It’s the least I could do.”
Gabriel shook his head.
He couldn’t… he couldn’t burden her that way. But he turned around and saw how stressed out Grace had looked.

“Don’t worry. I find someone else. You don’t have to go through the trouble…

The Alpha’s Nanny
Chapter 62
Lyle didn’t stay home. Not even for a minute. Twice he came and just dropped supplies and felt. He also recieved weird phone calls and was being elusive. Elliot was becoming suspicious of him.
Whenever Elliot brought up the fact that they had to leave the city, he would make excuses and leave the apartment abruptly.
Elliot got tired of him and decided to follow him one day. He had enough of his evasiveness. He wanted to know what his brother was up in
If he was at least going to run off with his brother he needed to km what he was up to. Especially when it seemed like he was hiding something
Elliot wasn’t good with tracking by scent, but he managed to do it with his brother. His brother had gone straight to a budding that was few blocks away, merely a walking distance and Elliot had to wait a few minutes host to be sure his mother wouldn’t suspect him.
When he finally reached the building itself, he had tracked his brother by scent.
Purely by scent
And soon found his brother at a bar, with some men mid Alpha Sabine of Sceptre Kun pack. His face had paled as he set his eyes on her. Wondering how his brother could have been so stupid.
Sabine Reinhardi7171 Of all people?!
Did that mean his brother was trying to take down Gabriel?! Their very
very own alpha?
Because the only thing he knew they had in coimos was Gabriel Sabine has been a thom in Gabriel’s flesh for a while now. Fur years. But w was talking to her.
Elliot didn’t want to even think of what that could possibly mo
Had
the… had he really been working with her this whole time?!
As if Lyle could sense someone’s eyes on him, he looked up and found his brother across the room from him, Lyle froze. But only for a short while because in the next minute he charged at Elliot and diagged him out of the place.
“What the fuck are you doing here?!”
He spat our angrily. His breath was raggedy. It was obvious he wasn’t expecting Elliot
“I could ask the same of you…”
“What are you doing with that woman?!
“That none of your business… you need to leave… it’s not safe.”
Ellot
nodded his head.
“So it was you then?! The attack… kidnapping and killing Tony…”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about…”
Lyle answered as his eyes darted around in nervousness. He was lying. His heart skipped a beat. Even someone who wasn’t a wolf could tell that he was just lying.
God. Now he felt so stupid. All those times…. His own brother was just using him. Whatever love he pretended to have for him was probably fake.
it to extract information from him.
