Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Chapter 167 Nightmare’s Reality

Caroline’s POV

I jolted awake with a strangled cry, the nightmare still vivid in my mind. Liam had been calling for me, crying, reaching out with his small hands, his violet eyes wide with fear. "Mommy! Mommy, help!" The sound of his terrified voice echoed in my head as I frantically looked around, realizing I was on the couch in Draven’s office.

Ava was holding my hand tightly, her eyes red-rimmed from crying. Rose was placing a tea tray on the nearby table. Ryan was pacing while speaking tensely on his phone, Kyle typing furiously on her device. Across the room, Draven was unleashing a thunderous roar at someone on the phone, his eyes blazing violet.

"Draven, she’s awake," Ava called, and he immediately rushed to my side.

"My love," he said, his voice breaking as he took my face in his hands. "I’ve contacted every Alpha in the region. The human police have been notified too—we’ve reported Liam as missing." Tears glistened in his eyes. "Daniel and Dennis were working against us all along. They’ve both disappeared completely."

"Draven, our baby boy..." I choked on a sob. "He’s just a little boy..."

"I swear by the Moon Goddess, we will find him," Draven said fiercely,"No one takes my son and lives to tell about it." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Ryan hung up his phone and approached us. "I’ve ordered every available pack member to search Harbor Bay. We’ve doubled the guards at all territory borders and dispatched six hunting parties.If they try to leave with Liam by road, we’ll find them."

"Here, dear," Rose offered me the steaming cup. "This will help calm you without making you sleepy."

Draven stroked my hair as I sipped the herbal tea. "I’ve spoken with neighboring Alphas. They’ve all agreed to join the search and detain Daniel or Dennis on sight."

The door burst open as Nate and Eleanor rushed in. Eleanor immediately wrapped her arms around me.

"We came as soon as we heard," she said, her voice trembling. "Caroline, don’t worry. I’ve already contacted Sebastian." I remembered her brother had recently taken over as Alpha of their pack after their father stepped down. "He’s mobilized our entire pack to help search."

Nate nodded grimly. "I’ve notified the Starlight Pack too. Every wolf in the region will be looking for him." He hesitated. "The only challenge is that since Liam doesn’t have a scent..."

My heart sank. My son inherited my defect. If he had a normal scent like other wolf children, tracking him would be simple.

Eleanor shot Nate a warning look and squeezed my hand. "That doesn’t matter. Any kidnappers worth their salt would use scent-blocking spray anyway. And remember, Draven’s violet eyes are rare—any wolf spotting a child with those eyes will know it’s Liam."

The door opened again as Nate’s uncle, Dr. Molina, entered carrying his medical bag.

"What about the human police?" Eleanor asked.

"They’re searching too," Ryan explained."But we know this is pack business. Whoever took Liam knows about wolves."

"We will find him," Draven vowed, pulling me into his arms. "I’ll tear apart anyone who dares touch our son."

As I leaned against his chest, all I could think about was Liam - scared, alone, calling for his mommy. Rory howled mournfully inside me, a mother wolf desperate to find her pup.

Alpha Arthur kissed my hand respectfully and told me before leaving, "Clara has arranged her flight and will be boarding soon. She’ll arrive early tomorrow morning. She asked me to tell you that she’s coming to see you soon." Knowing that Clara was coming gave me great comfort.

Draven held me tighter, and I felt his body trembling with the effort of containing his rage.

"Stay strong, my love," he whispered. "For Liam, and for our baby. We will bring our son home."
