Alessandro's POV
"What do you mean you don't know where Ariel is?" I ask the omega who has come rushing to me saying that my sister is not in her room.
"Alpha, I went to her room to call her for breakfast but she wasn't there. So, I search the whole mansion yet I haven't found her." The omega replies fearfully.
I dismiss the omega while rubbing the middle of my forehead in frustration. My younger sister Ariel has a habit of sneaking out of the packhouse to go have a sleepover with her friends which I hate. Yes, that doesn't stop her from whatever her heart desires.
Just as I am going to walk out of the packhouse to look for my sister, Isabella rushes toward me. I hold my arms open for her to give me a hug which she does without any hesitation. But when I feel her body shaking I pull away from the hug to look at her. My eyes widen seeing that she is crying which makes me concerned about her.
"What's wrong, darling? Who made you cry?" I ask as gently as I can.
"I don't want to go to college anymore." That's all I get in reply.
"But why is that?" I ask while wiping her tears.
"There are some guys who always make fun of me saying that I should kill myself as I don't have anyone who loves me. I have tried to avoid them but they keep following me." My jaw clenched in anger hearing how she is getting bullied in college. It seems I have to talk to the principal personally to let him know that I am not a bit happy with the things going on.
"Darling, I know you're hurt by their words. But as long as I am with you, you don't have to worry about anything." I tell her in hope that it will make her happy but instead, she gives me a sad smile in response.
"I know you love me and care for me. But I also know that you have a mate out there whom you will be meeting one day and that day you will leave me for good. So, I don't want to get my hope high." She says putting her palms on the side of my face.
"I have told you numerous times that I don't care if I have any mate or not, you are always going to be the only one for me. I love you too much to let you go for someone whom I don't even know. So, stop thinking about my mate and concentrate on your studies. I will take care of the guys." I reply kissing her on the forehead.
"By the way, where were you going before I came here?" She asks.
"Ariel is missing again. I think she has gone to have sleepover with her friends again." I reply with a sigh.
"But I think I have seen her friends in the college so if she was with them, she would have been there too." She replies making me furrow my eyebrows.
"Then where is she?" I ask aloud getting worried for the safety of my sister.
After the passing away of our mom, I have tried my level best to give her all the happiness a big brother can give. But I think my love has made her a spoil brat who don't think about to inform me about her whereabouts.
"Darling, you go to your room. I will be back soon after completing the search for Ariel." By saying this I walk out of the packhouse.
I order Merrick to bring our best 1000 warriors to the front. When they arrive I give them a brief description of what happened. Instantly they get into work along with Merrick leading them. On the other hand, I go to the main city to look for Ariel.
••••••••
It's been two days since my sister has gone missing. I have tried everything to find her but all my attempts are gone in vain. Every one in the pack house is trying to stay out of my way so that they don't have to face my wrath.
Thankfully, father is not here or he will have caused me more headache then necessary. Suddenly, my phone starts ringing but when I look at the caller ID I find an unknown number is calling me. Still, I receive the call.
"It's me, brother." Ariel says from other side of the phone.
"Ariel! Where are you? Are you okay?" I ask frantically.
"Yeah, I am okay. But promise me you won't freak out when I tell you where I am at this moment." She replies sounding scared.
"Just tell me where are you?" I ask suspiciously.
"I am with my mate." She replies making my eyes widen.
"Don't tell me you have run away with him." I growl.
"No, no I didn't run away from home." She answers immediately.
"Tell me exactly where you are?" I ask pinching the bridge of my nose.
"Red Crescent Pack." She replies while I smash the desk with my palm.
I don't let her say anything instead throw my phone against the wall breaking it into several pieces. The f**k she is doing in that pack? I don't care if she has found her mate, I will not let her leave in that pack at any cost.
"Why are you being such a d**k? Can't you see that our sister is happy? For Goddess's sake, we should be happy that Ariel is alright. But no, you just have to ruin everything." Damon growls in my head.
"I don't need your opinion on how to treat Ariel. It's not like I am going to hurt her. I just want what's best for her which is to live here." I reply before cutting off the connection.
"What happened? Why are you looking so angry?" Isabella asks from behind making me sigh before I turn around and face her with a smile.
"I was a little worried because of Ariel but now you don't worry because Ariel has been found." I let out while she smiles brightly.
"That's so great. I am really happy to know that Ariel has been found, otherwise we were all worried." She replies wrapping her slender arms around my waist while I rub her back gently.
