NO MORE bodies turned up over the weekend, and Michael managed to spend his two days off doing odd jobs around the house. Ones he’d been putting off for far too long. He also managed to keep thoughts of Aaron to a minimum. It was funny how having to cope with a flooded kitchen floor kept his mind off it.

By the time Monday morning rolled around, Michael was pretty sure he’d got his little crush under control and could at least get through this case without risk of jeopardising it.

Frank was already at his desk when Michael arrived and so was most of the team. Stewart came in a few minutes after him, and as he did so, Arlington came out of his office and stood in the doorway. “Now that you’re all here.” He ducked back in and appeared again holding a blue folder. “Alpha Wallace called me first thing this morning.” The whole room sat up straighter. “She’s been contacted by a pack from Nottinghamshire.” He opened the folder and scanned one of the pages inside. “Alpha Yates of the Clumber Park pack. About a missing member of their pack. A Dale Wilson.”

Oh. Michael’s heart rate ticked up, and he leaned forward a little, eager for more information. “How long has he been missing?”

Arlington’s smile was grim. “Just over four weeks.”

Before the first murder. That would be too easy, surely? “Why didn’t they report him missing before now?”

“You know they don’t like to involve us in their affairs unless they absolutely have to.” He ran a hand through his thinning hair, looking tired. Michael wondered what sort of conversation that had been with Alpha Wallace. “Apparently, Wilson was answering text messages until just over a week ago, but then stopped suddenly. Two members of his pack came to look for him, with the London packs’ permission, but have found nothing so far.”

“Nice of them to let us know,” Frank grumbled. “It’s not as though we have a shifter running around killing people or anything.”

“I understand how you feel, Coldwell, but Alpha Wallace assures me she’s only now become aware of this and notified me as soon as she found out.”

“You believe her?”

“I have no reason not to. While I might not agree with all of their methods, the alpha council have never lied to us.” He smiled, a little more genuinely this time. “If she’d held onto the information for any reason, I believe she would’ve told me that too.”

Michael agreed with him. The alpha council had some odd ways of doing things—well, odd to Michael. But he’d never known them to lie.

“Okay, so what do we know about this Dale Wilson?” Michael eyed the folder in Arlington’s hand, itching to take a look at it.

“He’s six feet four, white, with short, dark hair and brown eyes.”

Michael rolled his eyes, “That could be half the shifters in the city. No photo?”

Arlington shook his head. “Only the one from his ID badge, but it’s due for renewal and isn’t the clearest.
