Alpha Derrick stepped into the hospital lobby, his expression hard and unreadable.
Mona was pacing furiously, her fists clenched, her frustration palpable. The moment she saw him, she stormed toward him.
"Derrick, this is ridiculous!" she snapped. "How can a whole alpha disappear from a hospital with no trace? What kind of security are they running here?"
Alpha Derrick raised a hand to calm her. "We'll get to the bottom of this, Mona. Let's not lose focus."
The doctor on duty, visibly shaking, approached them hesitantly. "Alpha, Luna, I swear, this is beyond anything I've ever seen.
Alpha Darwin was in his bed the last time I checked."
"Save it," Mona cut him off sharply. "If you were doing your job properly, he wouldn't have vanished!"
Alpha Derrick placed a firm hand on Mona's shoulder.
