Lachlan was talking with Elder Reginald inside the packhouse meeting room. The two of them were discussing the information that had been conveyed to the Alpha by Elder Zyair. The expressions on the two shifters' faces were grim as they continued to talk about the mission. At the same time, they were waiting for those who went on the mission, together with those from the other packs.
Although it was already quite late in the night, they could not rest until the problem had been solved, which was on how to deal with the warlocks that they had apprehended.
At the moment, all of the elders of the Kendall pack were inside the meeting room, together with Luella, the Luna. She had been yawning, fighting back sleep as she sat on the right side of the Alpha's seat. Lachlan had told her that she could just go to sleep while they had their meeting. But she was adamant to join them. She did not want to be left alone in the house, fretting non-stop when she could hear the discussion first-hand.
Another reason as to why she wanted to join the meeting was because she wanted to see her son, Erick. Knowing that he would immediately go straight to the packhouse after returning from the mission, she needed to talk to him and be there for him when he heard the news from Roel and Lachlan.
Unbeknownst to her, Erick had already left the premises after he had heard the news from Roel. He was currently with Luka, heading towards the diner where Amber was last seen.
Few minutes later, when the shifters from the mission had returned and were now entering the meeting room one by one, Luella looked up with a look of anticipation on her face. However, once everyone had entered and Roel had closed the door behind him, the anticipated look turned to confusion. Where is Erick?
She gave a look at Roel, who immediately walked over to her side. He bent down respectfully to hear what his Luna was about to say. When she asked where Erick was, she was surprised to hear that he had left. She continued to hear what Roel had said and after he was done, he left her to stand behind. She then looked down thoughtfully, feeling a bit concerned. Then she tried to think positive, 'perhaps he has a way to look for her and had to go immediately,' she thought.
Seeing the thoughtful look on his mate's face, Lachlan knew that she had found out about Erick's plight and knew that he had left. At first, he wanted to tell her that she shouldn't worry much about Erick since he knew that his son would find a way to look for Amber. It wasn't that he did not want to help look for his future daughter-in-law but he too cannot leave his responsibilities as the Alpha.
He inwardly let out a sigh. He looked out the window and sent a 'good luck' mindlink to his son.
Once everyone had settled down, except for a couple of shifters, including Dewei, who went to the packhouse prison to personally 'escort' the two warlocks, Lachlan began the meeting.
-----
Erick stood outside the diner where Roel had told him the place where Amber was last seen. Growling next to him was Luka, who was looking around him as if being cautious.
Knowing that animals weren't allowed inside the diner, he told Luka to stay put while he went in to question the employees inside. Fortunately, the employees were the same people who had seen Amber before and were also the people that Roel and Jeayan had asked earlier.
The employees were confused as to why people kept asking them about the missing woman and were a bit worried. They did not want their restaurant to be in deep trouble.
After assuring them that there wouldn't be any trouble and that he just wanted to look for his wife. To prove to them that he was really her 'husband', he showed them his photos with Amber, his screensaver in his phone, where it was a picture of the two of them with Luka, as well as their engagement party photo. Once they had seen the proof, the people at the diner immediately became more helpful. They even told him little details that they left out from Roel and Jeayan.
They showed him the booth where she sat that night. Luckily, at that time, the booth was empty, however, any traces of Amber would have been gone by then since they had cleaned it. Then again, Erick was a shifter. A powerful lycan, to be exact. Things like these do not faze him.
Without them being suspicious, he quickly pretends to sniff, trying to get a whiff of her scent.
Soon after, they brought him to where her car was last parked. Currently, her car and other belongings were at their home, brought by Roel and Jeayan. And since it was quite late at night, there weren't many cars parked in the parking lot. There were only lights from the streetlights, the LED parking lot lights and the moon light.
Again, that does not pose as a problem for a shifter like Erick as he managed to search around for more clues. It was then he noticed something off on the ground. He hunched down and picked it up. It was a small button. It looks like something from a woman's blouse. It was probably Amber's!
He then looked around and saw a bit of white powder not far from where he found the button. He wiped it with his finger and took a sniff. It smells like a strong sleeping powder. They probably had used this to make Amber sleep and then take her away.
The manager of the diner had actually followed him outside. He looked quite shocked when he saw what Erick had discovered. Because it was nighttime, they couldn't see what was around. Even Roel and Jeayan did not manage to find anything. Hence, he was surprised to see that Erick did find something.
He felt a bit pleased because, at least, they were not at a stalemate.
Oblivious at the clear relief on the other man's face, Erick looked beyond, past the diner to the highway. Judging from the way Erick looked at that moment, it seems like he knows where he was going next.
