CHAPTER Four  Guilty feelings 

Aaron’s POV

I wake up the following day having hardly slept a wink; I feel miserable and angry. I feel like a ship lost at sea without Isla by my side. I miss her company and the sense of purpose that we shared. It's hard to find the motivation to continue my work without her there to support me. Every second, I find myself searching for a way to bring her back, hoping that I'll be able to reunite with her soon. It's like a piece of me is missing, and I can't quite figure out how to fill it.

But I won't give up. I'm determined to find a way to bring Isla back, no matter what it takes. I'll scour every inch of this world if I have to, searching for the clues that will lead me to her. I know that I need to stay focused and keep pushing forward, but it's hard to do that when I feel so alone.

I can feel my heart racing as I think about the dangers that lie ahead. But I won't let fear stop me. I'll do whatever it takes to find Isla and return her to safety. I hope she's out there somewhere, waiting for me to find her. I'll never give up on her.

It's been a day since Isla disappeared, but I'm already panicking. I've searched everywhere, but there's no sign of her. I don't know what to do.

I've sent out my best warriors to search for her, but they haven't found anything yet. I'm trying to stay strong, but it's hard when I feel so helpless.

I keep thinking about all the things that could have happened to her. What if she's hurt? What if she's lost? What if she's been taken by someone?

I'm trying not to let my mind run wild, but it's hard. I want to find her, hold her in my arms, and tell her how much I love her.

I know that I can't give up, that I have to keep searching for her no matter what. But it's hard to keep going when I feel like I'm running out of time.

Every moment feels like an eternity, filled with uncertainty and fear. I hope that somewhere out there, Isla is safe and knows how much I care about her.

I'll never stop looking for her, no matter how long it takes. I hope that I find her soon.

I can sense my beta at the door, and I hope that he is bringing good news to me. But I am quickly disappointed when he walks with a tray of food. It may be my favorite thing to eat and smell so delicious but I cannot face eating. I can't face much without Isla. My wolf has been quiet since she disappeared, he is struggling without our mate.

“Alpha, you must eat. We have to keep our strength up. I know that you are missing her but come on please eat.” Nigel sighed and offered me the plate but I shook my head and looked away from it.

“She must have gone back to the coven. I can't think of anywhere else she would be. All because I made her keep her hybrid nature from my family. I thought they would reject her if they knew she was a witch.” I explained but Nigel knew all this and still listened to me. He was a good friend and that is why I had made him my beta when k had taken over the alpha title from my father. My father lived in a cottage on the outskirts of the pack. He mostly kept himself to himself and had a job in the main town. I wondered what he would make of all this.

“Your father would know that the moon goddess paired you and Isla for a reason. Besides, the witch that murdered your mother was evil. Isla is not evil. Your father would know Isla is no threat to any of us, she loves you and this pack. They all adore her. I've already been in contact with the coven and they haven't seen or heard from Isla, either. If anything changes then they will contact us straight away. Now please, eat and then we have to get to the office. Our men are still out looking for Isla.” Nigel informed me and I knew that he was once again right but it did not stop me from feeling like it were all my fault. What if Isla shared me now and did not want to be my mate or my Luna? Every time I tried to mind kink with her I could not get through, it was a huge block in the way. It was extremely frustrating for me to deal with.

I looked a the side of the bed where my beautiful mate should be sound asleep with her long silky hair sprawled all over the pillows. I loved to watch her sleep, the way her eyelids would flutter when she would awaken and then that smile would appear when she caught me staring at her. I loved her so much and never knew it could be possible to feel so strongly.

I knew that she would be hurt that her sister and old pack were now gone and I would do whatever I could to help her to grieve and come to terms with the loss. I knew how it felt to lose my mother so I understood how pain and anger. I just wished that she would let me be there for her.

My warriors were guarding Pembroke in case she went back there but I suddenly decided that I needed to be there. I needed to ensure she was not there.

I must go to find her.
