Angus texted Poppy first thing in the morning. He didn’t get a reply. Then he tried to call. It went straight to voicemail. He’d wanted to talk to her from the moment he was awake. He put his phone in his pocket and frowned. Her phone must be out of batteries. Maybe he would surprise her at the lodge with another bouquet of flowers. They could have breakfast together.

The wedding was later that evening. He knew there would be a lot of activity going on over at the lodge, but he wanted to see Poppy and talk to her before then. He jumped in his pickup, drove right to the florist shop, and bought a dozen princess pink roses. When he got to the lodge, he went straight up to her room and knocked on the door.

He waited for a few minutes, thinking maybe he’d caught her asleep. Then he knocked again. Still nothing. Maybe she’d already gone down to breakfast. He’d just join her there. He went back to the lobby and peered into the dining room.

“Can I help you find someone?” asked Kelly, the human receptionist, from behind the reception desk.

“Have you seen Poppy Robins? She’s staying here with her parrot.”

“I saw her this morning. She took the back door out onto the grounds about half an hour ago. Haven’t seen her come back in.”

“She’s probably walking one of the paths,” Angus said, thanking Kelly.

He took the backdoor and walked down the main path that led to the cabins. It intersected with the path that led down to the lakeshore and the path that circled around through the woodland on the outer edge of the lodge property. He sniffed the air, trying to pick up her scent. He could smell it more thickly in the direction of the woodland path, so he hurried that way.

As soon as he came under the cover of the forest, he could smell the sharp scent of Poppy’s adrenaline. There was gunpowder in the air and the scent of two other men. Someone had taken her. He could smell all three scents going up the path. He dropped the flowers and ran along the trail.

At the end of the trail, he came to a dead end road. Poppy’s scent grew weak, but there was exhaust thick in the air. They’d driven off in a car. Now he had no way of finding her. This couldn’t be happening. Poppy was everything to him. Who would have taken her? Why was she in so much trouble? Humans didn’t just randomly kidnap women off of trails at gunpoint. Not usually. There had to be some kind of motive.

Angus ran back to the lodge as fast as his human feet would go. He was at the backdoor within minutes, dialing Levi’s number. He didn’t want to interrupt his alpha at such an important moment, but Angus’s mate had been kidnapped. This couldn’t wait.

Levi’s phone rang, but he didn’t answer. It went to voicemail. Angus left a message, asking him to call him right back.
