Chapter 76-Ryan’s POV ( Saved….
I ran out.
Literally ran to the spot where my car had crashed.
” What happened? Where is the girl? ”
I barked at the officers who were still on guard at the spot. My mind was disoriented as I looked for her.
I couldn’t believe what had happened. My car had crashed, and Sherry was missing. My heart was about to leave my chest and my hands were shaking, and my mind was racing. I had to find her, no matter what it took.
” She was sitting right here but then she sneaked out. We have been trying to trace her as well but with no success. ”
“Get everyone on the phone,” I shouted to my men who joined me just then.
“Tell them to drop everything and start searching for Sherry. I want every resource we have, every contact we know, every flavor we’re owed. We’ll leave no stone unturned until we find her.”
They nodded, looking a bit intimidated by my intensity. “Right away, sir.” Then turning towards the officers, they asked, “Do you have any leads, any clues?”
They shook their heads. “Nothing yet. But there is someone out there who knows something. They said something about spotting her in a club and some men disturbing her. We’ll use our network to gather information, track down leads, and follow any possible trail. And if anyone has harmed Sherry, they will pay . Don’t worry. ”
The officers tried discouraging our intervention but the bit of news they gave me intimidated me more.
” Get that person to me, right now! “My roar was enough to terrify werewolves, they were mere human police.
As my team started making calls, gathering data, and coordinating efforts, I kept thinking about Sherry and trying to retrace her steps. Where could she be? Who could have taken her? Was she still alive? My anger grew stronger, fuelled by the fear and frustration of not knowing what had happened.
It was like I was losing my mind, my rationality. I felt like shifting into my wolf and tearing the entire city down.
But I also knew I had to keep a cool head and stay focused. I couldn’t let my emotions cloud my judgment or lead me astray. I had to trust my instincts, rely on my resources, and work tirelessly until I found Sherry and brought her back to home.
Just then, Beck called me and I eagerly answered ,
” Did you find something? ”
Beck paused before answering back,
” Not me. Rose did. At our Orient Resort. You might want to head out there. I have sent your chopper. We are also on the way. ”
Orient Resort?
My father’s auction house?
What was I to find there, but I had to check out. I pulled myself up the ladder as my chopper came in just then.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
The moment my chopper landed on the rooftop, I instantly sniffed up her scent.
Sherry was there. She was breathing. I had found her.
As I followed her scent and ran in that direction, my feet took me towards the auditorium.
I could hear a lot of commotion from that place and I knew what was happening there.
I kicked the door open as Beck and the others barged in too.
” Ryanair? ”
One of the men at the head of the auction fumbled in my presence.
My eyes scanned the room as I found Sherry , clad in a blue dress, standing at the corner, almost couching.
Her eyes were wide with fear as she looked up at me. Without hesitation, I ran towards her, my heart pounding in my chest.
” Ryan…”
She gasped as her body gave way and she was about to fall on the ground. I sprung to reach her, I scooped her up into my arms and held her tightly.
” I am here. I am here. ”
I hugged her tight as she closed her arms around me. Her eyes closed and buried in my chest.
The men around us hesitated, unsure of what to do. With Sherry in my arms, I spun around and faced the men, my eyes burning with anger.
” Who dared to lay a finger on my woman? ”
I growled, my voice low and menacing.
The men hesitated for a moment longer before finally turning and running out the door.
The men organizing the whole thing, were literally shaking and seemed like they were about to piss their pants,
” What are you still doing here? ”
They held onto their dear lives and darted without even looking where they were headed.
I watched them go, making sure that they didn’t turn back before finally relaxing and turning my attention back to Sherry.
“It’s okay,” I murmured softly, holding her close. “You’re safe now.”
She buried her face deeper in my chest, her body shaking with sobs. I held her tightly, feeling a fierce protectiveness rise up within me.
She grabbed my arms and dug her nails into my flesh.
“Take me home, please. ”
She whispered.
I saw Rose also join Beck and my men as I carried her out of the room and towards my chopper.
We did not talk or say anything.
I was just trying to hear her heartbeat and take in her scent.
After landing in my backyard, Sherry silently sat up .
I extended my hands to help her but she didn’t take them.
She got off the chopper and walked silently towards the house as I watched.
I didn’t follow her in.
I knew she needed the space that I was giving.
At Least she was in front of my house and safe.
Just then my phone rang.
It was my father, the human one. The mafia lord of that part of the world.
He hadn’t called me in weeks.
His call at that moment could only signify one thing…. That he knew about the fiasco at his auction house and was calling me to clarify what had actually happened.
