Liv's POV
Frank stared into my eyes, his gaze diverted down my hands as he intertwined his fingers with mine.
I didn't utter a word to him. I followed him, knowing fully well I was safe with him. Frank could never harm me and that was a fact which became my reality.
We arrived at a building just outside the mansion. It was a secluded building and my eyes peered around as I had never been inside that building. My anticipation became intense. I was lost in thoughts when Frank snapped his fingers before my face and I lifted my gaze up at him.
"Are you ready to go inside?" Frank questioned and I nodded my head in approval.
"Say the words Liv".
"Yes I'm ready" I voiced out and we walked inside.
I gasped in fear, beholding the terrific sight in front of me. I took some few steps back and Frank's grip on my hand tightened. It dawned on him I was scared.
A man was drenched in blood, looking as though he was close to being lifeless, strapped to a chair. Frank pulled me with him and we stepped closer to the man as he disentangled his fingers from mine.
Frank strode towards the man, standing beside him as he dug his fingers into his cheeks and grabbed his hair tightly, making the man wince in pain.
"Frank what's all this?" I asked with fear laced through my voice.
"He is one of the men who attacked you" He revealed, letting go of the man's hair as his face dropped down.
Frank diverted his gaze to the other side and grabbed the seal placed on the table beside him.
"And that isn't all, we also found this seal on him" Frank added as he stretched forth his hand and I collected the seal from him, examining it intensely.
I recognized the seal belonged to the dark moon pack but it confused me the more. What was going on?
"Someone from dark moon pack sent them" he spoke up, confirming my suspicion and I stared up at him with slightly parted lips.
My heart began to beat in a fast pace as my hands started to shake and the seal slipped off my hands, falling onto the floor. The thoughts of my dreams or should I call it nightmares? were gradually becoming a reality in my life.
I knew there was only one person who had ever wanted me dead and that was Luna Rebecca.
I had been under the misconception for so long that she had a sharp mouth and knew how to threaten people a lot, infact she had taken it as a hobby of hers but I didn't realise she could also work with actions.
After Frank's revelation I felt extremely scared because of how unhinged Luna Rebecca was getting. Sending men to kill me was just too extreme. Numerous question kept ringing in my mind. What was her reason behind wanting to kill me so desperately.
Was it because I was an omega and being with her sons would be a dent on her reputation or she was scared I'd come in between a mother and her sons or was it something different and deeper?.
I shut my eyes closed, sniffing in deeply. It felt as though my world was spinning around in circles. I opened my eyes slowly.
"Liv are you okay?"
"No I'm not but I'll feel much better if I leave this place, I feel so suffocated in here" I said calmly, not referring to the different emotions I felt within me.
"Come Liv I'll take you home" He offered and lead me towards the door as I walked away from him, feeling devastated.
Getting to Darkmoon pack was faster than usual. I guess it was because I was lost in my feelings as different thoughts imploded through my head. I leaned my head on the car seat as Frank came down from the car and turned around, opening my side of the car door.
"We've arrived Liv" he announced and that snapped me back to reality
I looked around and for some reason, my heart skipped. I was back here. Under the same roof with the woman who had asked for me to be killed. "Yeah I know that" I mouthed even if I hadn't realise when the car stopped moving
I raised up my head to see Callum and Ryder standing at the corner. It seemed as though they had been waiting for me with the way they rushed towards me.
Callum grabbed my arms and pulled me closer to him as he began to scrutinize my body intensely.
"Callum what are you doing?" I queried.
"I'm trying to check if you're okay" Callum replied back and enveloped me in a tight hug.
Ryder turned to Frank as a frown played across his face. "Over to you Frank, what the fuck are you doing here?" .
"You should be glad I brought Liv back. If she left the same way she came, your mother would have tried to kill her again" Frank declared as he huffed at them.
Callum turned to me in confusion, eyebrows furrowed in worry as well. "What is he talking about?"
"Well Callum... you see the thing is...I mean...Callum please try to understand that__" I tried to speak but I couldn't as nervousness coursed through me.
"You know what, I think you need to do something about your mother. She was the same reason I took Liv away in the first place. If you can't protect her, I will" Frank divulged as Ryder stepped in front of him, brushing his chest against Frank's.
"Liv doesn't fucking need you. We are here for her and we will protect her as her mates" Ryder growled.
"That's not what she said a few moments ago" Frank shot out immediately
I remembered how I had been all over him, begging for his approval and embarrassment flushed through me instantly.
"Frank!" l instantly snapped not wanting him to spill how miserable I had been with him few moments ago
Ryder looked at the both of us and then at Callum with an unreadable expression. "Liv we need to get you inside, you need to get enough rest"
I glanced up at Frank and forced a smile at him as I trailed behind Ryder, leaving Callum and Frank all to themselves.
I got to my room as I noticed my room was left wide open and I dashed inside quickly. I recalled I had left my room in the care of a maid and had instructed her to lock my room, not let anyone in.
Looking around, Not only was the lock ruined, but she was also missing as well
I panicked "Ryder why has my room been left wide opened?" I questioned him as he gave me a bothered look. Ryder looked everywhere but at me, as he sighed in discomfort.
"Max thought the maid was purposely hiding information about your whereabouts so he took her away" Ryder divulged and my lips parted in fear as the thought of what Max would do to her filled my head.
"What the hell are you talking about Ryder? What did he do with her" my breathing quickened as my pulse raced "Where is Charlotte!"
