“I’m sorry, but we couldn’t find him,” he looked at me with an apologetic expression. “It looks like he was ran off the road on the bridge about thirty minutes away from the territory. We found his car in the gorge under the bridge,” “WHAT!?” we all exclaimed.
“When we got down to the car, there was blood, but Wyatt wasn’t in the car. Lorenzo picked up his scent, and we followed it through the gorge to an embankment, and then it just stopped,” Jason continued while Milan held a blanket around him.
“There were tire treads and a small pooling of blood. We followed the tired treads the best we could, but we ended up at a fork in the road,” Kendrick added and held his own blanket. “I’m sorry Rylee, but we think Wyatt may have been grabbed,” I shook my head profusely and grabbed my hair. I lost control and broke down. Then I remember something and looked straight at Lorenzo.
“DID YOU KNOW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN!?!”
“No, I didn’t” he replied, and he was telling the truth.
“What’s the use in having the power of premonition if you can’t see something like this coming!?!” I knew I just outed him in front of everyone, but at that point, I didn’t care. Wyatt was missing, and potentially injured and bleeding. “Rylee, it doesn’t work that way. I only get them when I’m supposed to,”
“What do you mean when you’re supposed to!?! Are you telling me that saving Wyatt’s life isn’t important enough to get a vision!?”
“Rylee, calm down,”
“DON’T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!” I screamed and threw him across the living room with my powers. He immediately stood his feet, and used his powers against me, and flung me across the living room as well. I landed on the sofa, but the impact made it roll over. “Do not forget who you are talking to, Rylee,” he growled. I was pissed off that I couldn’t stop myself. I stood to my feet, and my eyes started to glow. I focused on a vase and flung it at him with full force, which of course he stopped. I expected that and flung another vase at him and that one made impact to his head.
“YOU’RE IMMORTAL! WHY DID YOU COME BACK!?! GO OUT THERE AND FIND HIM!!!” I roared and flung every inanimate object in the living room at him. Books, vases, lamps, pillows, and even the coffee table.
“RYLEE THAT IS ENOUGH!!!” he roared back and shook the entire living room and stopped every single object midair and made them fall to the ground. Even though I was a Luna, and a Primordial, the aura Lorenzo was emitting at that moment was none I had ever seen. His eyes were a crimson red, it was almost as if you could see his Alpha aura surround him.
“What the f**k?” Kendrick said. I hadn’t even noticed everyone was on their knees in fear. This wasn’t Lorenzo, this was William.
“Kneel,” he commanded, and I submitted. “Rylee, I understand that you are worried about Wyatt, we all are, but that does not give you the right to disrespect me. I am more powerful than you in more ways than one, and you best not forget that again,” I could feel him glaring at me as I looked at the floor. No one has ever been able to make me submit. Not Eric, Ash, Nicole, or even Wyatt, mostly because I’m more powerful than Wyatt is, but I never tell him that to his face. But William, he was something totally different. He emitted more power than I had ever seen. I guess being the first Primordial to ever exist has something to do with it.
After a few minutes, things finally calmed down, and everyone finally stood their feet, that is, everyone except me. For someone reason, Kalleigh and I were afraid to stand.
“Rylee, stand,” William said to me. I stood, but I kept my gaze to the floor. “Mr. Valencia, I’m sorry that I was unable to find our son, but I do believe that he is alive because if he was not, Rylee would know,”
“Yes, Mr. Rossi, I too believe my son is alive,” Ronan said.
“Beta, what is the plan?” William asked.
“As soon as the storm dies down, we will send out trackers to where we lost his scent. They are the most skilled in tracking and should be able to pick up the trail again,”
“I will join them,” William said, and Kendrick nodded.
“Jason, tell your dad,” Ronan said, and Jason and Milan went to go see his parents. “Melody, get a few of the Omegas to clean up this mess,”
“No,” William said and stopped her. “Rylee, you made the mess, you clean it,” I gasped and looked at him in shock.
“Mr. Rossi, she is the Luna,” Ronan said to him.
“She wasn’t acting like the Luna when she lost control of her emotions. Regardless of any situation, she needs to remain in control of her emotions and her actions. She was acting like a child, so I’m going to treat her like a child,” he said bluntly and looked back at me. “Clean up the mess Rylee, without your powers,” for a split second, I felt like I was back at Halfmoon, but William was right. I caused this mess because I lost control. I wasn’t acting like a Luna, so why should he treat me like one. I went to the broom closet and took out the cleaning supplies and got to work.
Kalleigh was whimpering because she was worried about Wyatt, but also because she was ashamed that she too lost control. It wasn’t just me who was using my powers to try and harm William, it was her too, and she was embarrassed by her actions, as was I. Melody and Grace tried to help me, but I told them not to. This was my rightful punishment, and I needed to learn to my lesson. Grace was angry with William, but I told her not to be.
In all honesty, I was somewhat grateful that William put me in my place. He always warned me what would happen if I lost control, and I proved him right. I became a danger to those around me, and I felt horrible because of it. Had it not been William I was flinging objects at, it could have been a pack member or a family member, and they would have been seriously hurt or even killed.
I quickly cleaned up all of the broken glass, picked up all of the books, and pillows, and flipped the couch back over. I threw everything away, rearranged anything that wasn’t broken back to its rightful place. When I was done, I went to the kitchen, and got a bottle of water, and went back to my room. I sat on the bed and hugged my knees. I didn’t sleep at all as I was too worried about Wyatt.
I decided that I would join the trackers in the morning to help search for Wyatt. My heightened sense of smell and my bond with Wyatt should be helpful, at least I hoped.
The next morning, the storm had finally let up, and the sun was out. I quickly got dressed in a jacket, thick leggings, and my snow boots. I threw my hair into a ponytail, and met everyone downstairs,
“Rylee, what are you doing?” Kendrick asked.
“I’m going with you guys,”
“Rylee, you’re the Luna, you need to stay home and take care of the pack,”
“NO! He’s my mate, and I’m going with you! Lorenzo isn’t the only one with a heightened sense of smell. Besides, no one here has a better bond with Wyatt than I do,” I tell him sternly. He looks back at William, and he nods his head. As we head out, I hear William’s thoughts,
Rylee, I’m disappointed in you.
I’m sorry William. I was afraid because of Wyatt. I don’t know what I would do if I ever lost him.
I understand that, but that does not give you the right to act that way and attack me. You are a Luna. You need to remain calm, poise and collected when situations such as this arise. If I’m right, and you are immortal, you will outlive Wyatt. He is going to age over time, and he is going to die while you remain young and healthy.
I don’t want to live in a world without Wyatt.
You won’t have a choice if you are immortal. It’s just the way it is.
How do you do it? How have you been able to live all this time knowing that all of your loved ones will eventually perish?
With time it gets easier.
I couldn’t help the tears that streamed down my face when he said those words. Knowing that if I am indeed immortal, I would have watch Wyatt get older, and eventually leave this world where I will be alone again. I pray to the moon goddess that I’m not immortal. After about an hour and a half hike from the territory, we ended up the bridge and I could see the remnants of the accident. I looked over the bridge even though I’m terrified of heights and could see Wyatt’s car. William led us down to the gorge so the trackers could try and pick up anything that William and the guys may have missed because of the storm.
Everything was covered in snow, but the tracker could still sense Wyatt’s blood in the wreckage. They followed his scent and ended up the same embankment William and the guys ended up at. We all hiked up again, with Kendrick and Jason helping me along the way just in case and sure enough, we ended up at a crossroad. One way led into the city and the other way led deeper into the mountains on the opposite side.
“Luna, something isn’t right,” Felix said. Even in his older age, Jason’s dad was one of the best trackers the pack had along with head trainer Maddox.
