Elliot's POV "You really didn't have to call the way here. It was just a scratch," Shirley innocently said as she batted her lashes at me. I stifled an eye roll because she sounded frantic on the phone about getting hurt and now, she was playing it off like it was nothing. She was right though; it was nothing more than a scratch. It was obvious that the rogue didn't want her. "Your wife must be so upset that your date night was ruined because of this." She pouted as she ran her hand up my arm. I sighed and took a step back, out of her reach.

"I need answers, Shirley," I told her, keeping my voice indifferent. "How many rogues were there?" Pack doctors had surrounded Shirley because I ordered them to keep their priorities on her injuries. Now that we had free tand she was just about to be discharged, I knew I could ask her questions. "I think maybe 1," she answered. "It was dark, and I couldn't really see clearly." I furrowed my brows together; we were wolves which meant we had great sight in the dark. But I wasn't going to question her because I knew everything happened quickly.

"What did he look like?" I asked, trying to keep the annoyance out of my voice.

She wrapped her arms across her chest.

"I didn't really see him good, Elliot," she told me. "But he had a silver knife." "But he didn't use it on you?" "I don't think so," she murmured. "I didn't feel the silver if he had. I think he only used his claws. It all happened so fast though so I can't be sure." Tears welled up in her eyes and I stood from her bedside.

"Christ's sake, Shirley. You are an Alpha; you should be stronger than this," I scolded, not caring if I sounded like an asshole.

"I know... I'm just upset I couldn't be more helpful. I'm also upset ruined your evening," she let out a sob.

I sighed, running my fingers through my hair and feeling a jab of remorse for my oldest friend.

"I'm sorry, Shirley. I know you've been through a lot, and I don't mean to hound you with questions. But can you at least tellwhere you were and why you were in the forest alone?" 'I was in the northern region of the pack," she explained. "I was there because I was on a hunt-" "On my territory?" I snapped, feeling that surge of anger returning.

She bit her lower lip again.

"I didn't think you would mind," she confessed.

I opened my mouth to say something more, but then my phone rang, snappingback to the current moment, I grabbed my phone from my back pocket and glanced at the screen.

"Erik," I said into the phone.

"Alpha, there's a problem," Erik gasped, puttingon full alert.

I ordered Erik to be Silver's personal bodyguard and driver. Whenever he called, I knew it had to do with Silver because told him to givefrequent updates about her well-being and overall safety; I also liked knowing her whereabouts in case anything happened. But for him to calland tellthat there was a problem, I hoped for once that it had nothing to do with Silver. My chest constricted and I felt queasy.

"What is it?" I asked, trying to keep the urgency out of my voice.

"I was patrolling the area around the palace after I dropped the Luna off. As I walked around, Xnoticed there was a sign of a break-in," he told me, much to my dismay.

My heart fell deep into my stomach, m and I had to take a shaky deep breath. х
