"What's going on?" I move to stand next to Jaxon, just as Josie and Knox move through the house from the back door, towels wrapped around their bodies from swimming in the lagoons.
Both Jaxon and I are towering over Auntie Rosa, as she continues to sit on the sofa next to Mum.
Uncle Orpheus takes a step closer to his mate, placing a hand on her shoulder from the side.
I don't miss the way he squeezes it reassuringly.

Crouched down, I take her hand off her lap and place it into mine, gaining her full attention.
"Auntie Rosa, what is going on...where is Cleo?" I ensure my voice is soft, any trace of male dominance vanishing from it. I search her eyes, I can see pain hidden behind her discomfort, behind her mask. "We don't know." She sighs out.
"What do you mean you don't know?" I breathe out.
"She left the night of the dinner party..." "Left? What do you mean left?" "Jace." I hear Callie gasp out from behind but I can't turn to look at her, not when I was watching Auntie Rosa's lips so intently.
"We argued...I said things I didn't mean..." A sob escapes her, her hand snatching away from mine to cover her face.
My wolf...he's on the verge of shifting and tracking her down himself. Our mate was gone...and even her parents don't know where.
"She's missing?" The words leave my lips at an excruciating slow pace. Words I never thought in my deadliest of nightmares I would be uttering.
"That was a week ago... Why didn't you say something?" Jaxon roars out next to me, forcingto stand as his aura continues to swirl out into the room.
His eyes were solely on Uncle Orpheus, who was in return, solely concentrating on my brother.
"We thought...I thought she would be back by now. It's so out of character for her to just disappear." Uncle Orpheus responds.

Unless...I've caused this...I know I have. I've pushed her away, pushed her away from her family. That was never my intention. Fuck...I wanted to keep her safe. Not send her directly into potential dangero "What did you say to her?" Jaxon diverts around the sofa, getting into Uncle Orpheus' space.
"What did I say? What the fuck did you say to her?" Uncle Orpheus roars back in return, pure anger radiating off him as he places a hand around my brother's throat.
Jaxon doesn't respond except for a smirk forming onto his lips.
"Trust me, I wanted her to tell the truth." "And what truth would that be?" "More than what you know.."
"Is that why there is a fist sized whole in her bedroom wall?" Uncle Orpheus pars into daxon's face, his grip tight around my brother's throat. Bedroom...he was in her bedroom?
"You were in her bedroom?" My wolf is winning, his anger at the possibility that something was happening m en the two of them...she was henween mine...not his. "Yes, but it's not what you think.." Jaxon tries to calm my increasing anger...my eyes were starting to blur as uncontrollable rage takes over me. My chests starts to spread out, my
lungs needing room as I start to pant out... my shoulders rising and falling as my alpha aufa moves to dominate the atmosphere between us. "You were in her bedroom?" I seethe out.
