"What do you mean you cannot find Dani , whatever are you talking about ? " She stired at her bed " Is this another way of disturbing me from my sleep? Kyra please leave me alone " she called out of frustration.
" What the heck Lola ! Get your ass up , I cannot find her anywhere " She said again, louder this time.
" Oh my goodness , you are serious ! " She hurriedly got off her bed as she recognized the seriousness in her sister's voice " Have you checked the kitchen ? She could be there making cups of coffee for us, you know that's like her daily routine.
"I have been there and I didn't see her , or any sign that she has been there this morning. And she hardly leaves the house by the way so don't say I am mistaken, call Aunt Rose! Let her know what's going on ! I need to find a solution right now , I need to find her "
" I cannot believe this , it is not true , she gotta be somewhere. She cannot be missing , that can hardly be true"
" But she is not here , go get Aunt Rose now , let everyone know. Maybe someone has seen her" She said, not thinking elsewhere, her mind determine,
" Kyra , calm down , what if we blow this out of proportion and we find out that she is actually safe? This will be bad, you know it is not everyone who is really happy that we are here. Let us not cause any more trouble"
" I do not care , Let them know , I want her found. If it turns out that she is somewhere safe , then so be it , I will have to apologize"
" Okay . . . Okay , Let me think," She said placing her hand on her head , as a sign of distress. Since she heard that her sister might be missing , she has done everything to pretend that it could never happen , she was not going to face it the thought , she didn't want to believe it , she never got any distress vibe from Dani , she never felt that she was in danger , it could be that she was out as usual against their will and mixed the timing of coming back in, until she saw that Kyra was livid and that bothered her , whenever Kyra acted like that , it was always because she was convinced in her heart , and nobody would tell her otherwise, she was like that too when they were leaving their pack three years ago.
" Her phone! Call her phone ? " Lola She suggested
" Her phone is here with me! She didn't take it with her "
" That is just crazy! She would not go anywhere with her phone , But what I am most concerned about is the fact that I didn't sense any fear in her at all , and you know I am always the first to know if something is about to go wrong "
" Maybe you were just not focusing this time , your sleep was more important than your sister " She slapped those words on her face.
" Now come on, that is not true. I will be right back , let me go tell them. or ask them if they have seen her or heard anything. I will be right back. Stay here in case she comes home , I don't think you should go out now by the way" Lola said to her sister before she dashed out of the house.

Conri was finally getting to sleep after the whole night of trying to get through to Kyra and the running through the woods when he heard the door bell ring , he hesitantly got out of his bed again to open the door. Maybe it was Kiran , he thought to himself.
" Lola ? What are you doing here ? What's going on " Truly surprised to see her.
" We need you , my sister needs your help "
" Did she send you here ? "
" No , she didn't , in fact, she sent me in the opposite direction "
"Okay, tell me what happened? Come inside , let me put some clothes on " He said noticing he was shirtless.
" Dani is missing , and before you ask if we have searched everywhere for her , yes we have and we have not seen any traces of her , I have tried to tell Kyra to calm down , that she might just have been out by herself and maybe lost track of time , because usually, I should sense if she is in danger , but I did not and I still can't. I don't feel she is in danger. But no matter what I tell Kyra , she won't listen to me . She has just asked me to let the Luna know , but I am not prepared for the consequences of that act , it will turn bad if Dani is not missing after all "
" Why is that bad ? If they know it will only help you find her faster "
" No, they can't know and we cannot ask for their help until I have confirmed that she is truly missing and we can't find her by ourselves. Just so you know , it is not all the pack members that are happy that we are here or happy for the attention we get , you need to see eyes staring and mouth mumbling and whispering during the meetings and their Luna 's monthly parties. They always wonder why we were invited in the first place , we will always be outcasts to most of them, the only reason why this whole thing is bearable is that it is the luna herself that has taken us in"
" Then why don't you leave ? why do you keep staying here ? you can go back now" He said , pulling the shirt over his hard body.
" I wish it were that simple , I have decided to just leave the whole decision to Kyra , she is the one who has a say in it , she is the one who has to come to the realization , I have tried it and Dani has too. I cannot help but think she might have ventured out on her own , really. Till now, i still don't feel any fear inside me from her , no funny business , and I always feel it , no matter how far the person is, as long as she is still in the land"
" Then maybe she is not around here anymore "
" Only if that is the case," she said , pinning her lips together. Then she added when she realized what he has just said " Wait ! Does that mean she is not around here ? You think whatever is happening might not be happening here anymore "
" That can actually be the case , or maybe not but that is the only explanation I can have for you right now, come let us go to your place , let us talk about this in front of your sister. As you already know that she is not in any way happy with me now , and I want to refrain from anything that will add to it. I am not hiding anything away from her" As he stated what he wanted.
His doorbell sounded again , and he moved towards his front door to find out who was knocking again.
" Wait ! It could be Kyra , just take her home with you , I will come after you "
"Let's see if that's a good idea"
" Conri ! Conri , you need to wake up man ! I should be the one still sleeping , I am exhausted ! " Kiran shouted from outside the house.
" I guess it is not your sister after all. He is with me , he is here to help me find out about what happened to your sister that night "
" You got here faster than I thought , I was not expecting you until evening today, "He said as he opened the door to let him in.
" Oh yeah , don't get me started , with the instructions you gave me , I dare not waste more time , hence my being here this morning " Kiran removed his jacket from the warmth of the house.
" Well , that is good. Did you drive here ? "
" Yeah, I did. All through without resting , I could only make it here this fast that way "
After Kiran was done greeting his Alpha , he finally faced Lola , his brows arched to one side , silently questioning. " This is Lola " Conri said , taking the cue, introducing the both of them.
" The most stubborn of the sisters? I think I know her, I remember her " Kiran asked facing Conri.
" That would be my sister , Dani and we are trying to find her now and yes I remember you too " Maybe it was her eyes, but he had somehow grown more muscular and finer. Or maybe he has always been like that, and she is the one who has grown more. She is the one who is an adult now.
" Find her ? why ? Did she go missing ? " He asked slashing her thoughts.
" Yeah , do you have something to put inside the house from your car ? We are going over to their house "
" No , I don't have anything that cannot wait inside the car until we return "
" Then let us go, the more time we wait , the more damage will be done, I don't think the girl has her wolf yet "
" No she does not have her wolf yet, she is not in the shifting age yet, she is without her powers. If she is truly taken , she will be feeling so vulnerable and frightened. We need to find her" Lola replied confirming his statement.
" Then we should not waste any more time , do we need to drive over there ? "
" No, we don't need to if we pass through a short cut. follow me " As the three of them got out of the house , Conri could not stop himself from looking around for whatever clue that might be around waiting to be found, he was out last night too , and he does not remember seeing anything weird seeking attention. He knows Viktor was long gone, so he could not be him. He had said he was not there for Kyra.

" Yes I am definitely sure I saw him at midnight while I was coming over to your place," Kyle said , reporting everything he saw that night "But I didn't see the Kessler sister with him" he added
" No , I understand. It is possible that you have not seen Dani with him. All I needed to know was that he was still present here last night when I thought he was gone. That can mean so many things , and taking the Kessler sister might be one of them "
