Mated To The Alpha Kings

Knox POV

It’s three days already with no Idea of her whereabouts, we’ve searched almost everywhere we could think but still came up with nothing. For some unknown reason, I find the situation amusing, I know I should be mad, yet I’m not. I never thought that a mere human like Delaney could escape from my grasp. She definitely caught me off guard on that one.

I would have found her long ago, but the problem is, she’s blocking me out, which is hindering me from pinpointing her damn location. I wonder how she can even do that in the first place, the bond between us was shut so tight that even I, who is an ancient vampire, can’t get through. ‘Maybe it’s because she’s my mate’ I thought to myself with a smirk.

What she doesn’t know is that I’m a very patient vamp, I always wait for the perfect time before I catch my prey. Like what I’ve been doing this past few days, I’ve been hovering around the bond waiting patiently for when she’d let her guards down, even if it’s for a bit.

I guess I found what I’ve been looking for when she let her walls down, with no further ado, I forced my way in “Hello dear, Delaney.”

Her shock and anger radiated through the bond, yup, she wasn’t expecting me to speak to her at that time, and she’s still mad about what happened. I decided to distract her by speaking but I wasn’t Idle either, I used that opportunity to track her down.

Vendetta and the rest followed me as I raced towards wherever the bond was taking me. I know Delaney wouldn’t have survived out there on her own, someone must have helped and sheltered her.

I’m not foolish enough to not know the intention of the person who saved her. The person must have deduced a thing or two just from seeing the condition she was in, he must have known that she was trying to escape Valleys and I will definitely come for her if the mastermind knows she is my chosen. Whoever that person might either be an enemy or he wants something. I’ll choose the latter because I know all my enemies, I know how they operate. They would have alerted me that very day they found her.

Though, I wonder what the mastermind behind these wants. He might be using Delaney as the bait to draw me out and being the kind of person I am, I will surely go. I don’t give a damn about the danger, there is nothing on earth that scares me, and being an ancient vamp, I’m powerful enough to fend for myself.

The only thing I’m worried about is that they might harm Delaney to get me. They will know she means something to me just for coming after her so, I’m sure they’ll use her life to threaten me, especially if they are desperately in need of something. I can’t believe I finally have a weakness after living for so many years.

“What? Did you find out her location?” Vendetta asked when I suddenly halt.

My lips curved up slightly in a smile, “No, she shut me out.”

Her jaw dropped”What? She can do that?”

I didn’t bother replying, I just find the whole thing amusing and entertaining. I have lived for a long time, and it’s hard to find anything entertaining, but ever since Delaney arrived at Valleys she found a way to pique my interest. It must be the fact that she’s my mate. However, Delaney is sure a breath of life, I keep seeing a new side of her as time goes on, and I can’t help but be curious and look forward to what she’d do next.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Knox? Do you think she’s okay?” Vendetta asked, concern laced in her voice.

I answered with a curt nod, “She doesn’t seem to be in any trouble.” Or well, none that I know of, I would have sensed it through the bond. The only thing I sensed was confusion when I explained how I lost control. She’s finding it hard to accept the truth. I don’t blame her, though, I haven’t been anything other than a jerk towards her.

“So, what are we to do next? We aren’t that far from venturing into the werewolves’ territory.”

I gaze forward with a narrowed gaze, It took a while before I spoke, “She’s close, I sense we are not that far away from her. The bond feels stronger now that we’re here.”

A look of understanding flashed in Vendetta’s eyes, “You mean…”

“That’s right, seems like you’ve thought of it” I praised, I’ve never really put Vendetta in my eyes even when she forces herself to be my friend but ever since this incident with Delaney, I’ve come to realize how helpful she had been. I’m grateful she stuck by. I shut everyone out after my parents died and had blindly turned my eyes away from her that I didn’t realize how good she has been to me.

“If I’m not mistaken, Delaney should be held captive there, in the werewolves’ territory, I need to go save her,” I mumbled taking a step towards them.

Vendetta caught my hand before I could take another step, “You can’t just attack them, Knox! What if you’re wrong? We need to be certain Delaney is there! Besides, the Alpha of that pack isn’t just any Alpha, you won’t be able to do anything to him by fighting.”

I thought about what she said and nodded, she was right. I’ve heard the news about this particular Alpha. Rakel, yeah, that’s his name. I’m not afraid of him though, but it will be harder dealing with him than any other wolf. With a sigh, I turned to Raphael, “Take two men and scout the area, I want to know if Delaney is really there. Check their security, their weakness, and most importantly, look for a way in.”

“Yes, Sir.”

“A day, I’m giving you a day to complete this task.”

I didn’t bother with anything after they left, I rest my head on a tree and close my eyes.

‘You can always run from me, Delaney, but you can never hide.’ I thought with a smile.
