“Blake just mind-linked me. There was some new players.” Alec had an edge to his voice that I didn’t quite like.
Trying to stay as quiet as possible, I didn’t ask any questions until we came upon our vehicle. By the look of Alec, I could tell he was anxious. Whatever Blake had told him, it wasn’t good. “What’s going on?” I finally asked when we got into the front seats.
“I don’t…” Alec shook his head in confusion.
What could be worse? “We are literally the most powerful Alphas on this continent. Who would cause this kind of reaction from Blake?”
Alec looked at me, his hand running through his hair. “Sir Joe Gambino.”
“The Russian Mafia Boss?”
Alec nodded his head. “Exactly.”
“He’s human.” I was so confused.
“No, he’s not. Blake said he could smell his wolf right away. His closer bodyguards are all wolves.”
“Seriously? He is a wolf that runs the largest Russian organization? He poses as a human.”
“I know. That’s probably why he has been left alone. For him to come over here and out himself as a wolf puts a huge target on his back.” Alec stared blankly out the window.
“I wonder if the other alphas didn’t want to side with him.” I speculated.
Putting the car in drive, I drove back to the hotel. Alec watched the screen and was writing down each person he saw and taking screen shots. “Where are Gunther and Kara?” He asked me after we got back into our room.
Grabbing my phone, I pulled up the tracking device and looked at it. “Still at the cabin.”
Alec glanced over at me. “Might have someone check on them tonight. I have a feeling that Vin will show up on Joe’s arm tonight. Flaunting his company.”
“Not a bad idea.” This changed everything. The carpet was wearing thin with how much I was pacing. Alec was going to town on his phone still and neither of us got any sleep.
Dialing Jacob’s number, he picked up on the second ring. “Alpha.”
“I need you to take a few guys and discreetly check on Gunther and Kara. Their vitals are normal but they haven’t moved location and we need confirmation on them.”
“Is everything okay?” Jacob sounded a little concerned.
“I honestly don’t know.” Shaking my head, I was just trying to figure out how we were going to go about this. “Not really. We have a new player and it isn’t good”
“Got it. Anything else?”
Looking at Alec, I asked. “Was it Ben that did the dumpster diving for Ice?”
“It was.” Alec confirmed without looking at me.
“Jacob, get Ben on looking everything he can about Sir. Joe Gambino.”
“The mafia guy?” Jacob was a little taken aback. There was a small pause before he pieced it together.
“Fuck.”
“Yeah. Any known residence in the U.S and just really anything on him.”
