Rosaline still hadn’t come back. I was in my office, scrolling through photos of us on my phone and trying to call her again. But her number was still disconnected.
Earlier, a couple of her coworkers had dropped by. That’s when I realized even they didn’t know she was missing.
After that, I started pulling every string I had to track her down.
But she’d disappeared without a trace.
I kept thinking about that letter she left behind. A part of me was scared she’d found out about the pregnancy and left out of anger.
I’d tried calling Grandpa countless times. The calls always went through, but he never once picked up. just let them ring out.
It was strange. Grandpa was the kind of man who was always glued to his phone. And now, he’d completely vanished too?
“Hello, Mr. Holbrook.”
I looked up. One of our doctors, someone I hadn’t seen in days, stood in front of my desk.
He handed me his phone. “Alpha, something feels off. I was just told to take a private jet tonight to a remote location. I didn’t feel right about it, so I came to you first.”
I took the phone and looked at the message. It was a message from Grandpa.
He’d arranged for the doctor to fly to some far–off island.
My brows furrowed.
This wasn’t just any doctor. He was a skilled psychologist and a good friend from my college days. I’d personally recommended him to the Eclipse Pack as our family doctor,
Grandpa never knew we were close.
And now, with Grandpa completely unreachable, this same doctor told me Grandpa had suddenly asked for him to fly out in secret?
This wasn’t some typical medical emergency.
Even if I’d been slow to catch on before, it all made sense now.
No wonder I couldn’t reach éither of them. Grandpa had taken Rosaline.
My stomach turned with guilt.
I’d been so caught up in my own emotions, I hadn’t noticed how far things had gone between Grandpa and
- me.
He’d taken her away without a second thought for how I might feel.

I told the doctor to hold off for now and drove straight to Grandpa’s old mansion.

The staff said he hadn’t been around in a while.
So, he really was hiding Rosaline.
As I was about to leave, I noticed a maid lingering off to the side with her head down.
That felt wrong. That maid, Linda, had always been one of Grandpa’s most loyal employees.
If Rosaline was that far along in her pregnancy, why wasn’t Linda with her?
I called Linda over and brought her to the study.
“Where is Grandpa?” I asked plainly. “I need to talk to him. It’s important.”
Linda wouldn’t look at me.
“I don’t know anything about Mr. Holbrook’s plans.”
“Just be honest with me. I’m not going to make trouble for you.”
She stayed silent, clearly torn, twisting her skirt in her hands.
I sighed, pulled out my checkbook, and wrote a check.
Linda blinked, confused. “Mr. Caden, what’s this?”
“That’s a million. Can you talk now?”
I watched her reaction. She stared at the check, then at me. Finally, she exhaled and lowered her voice.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Caden. I was with Ms. Sinclair at the villa yesterday. But Alpha sent me back last night.”
The second I heard Rosaline’s name, I felt my heart jolt.
“Where is she?”
“It’s a remote island. I don’t know the name or coordinates. Alpha didn’t allow us to use any while we were there.”

So it was true. Grandpa had done all this behind my back–even going so far as to keep the location secret -from his most trusted staff.
Things were starting to make sense now.
That letter was probably written under his direction.
With Grandpa’s power and reach as the Alpha of the Eclipse Pack, hiding Rosaline was child’s play.
– 3 2 –
No wonder my efforts to find her kept hitting dead ends.
I looked at Linda again. “Do you think what he did was right?”
She hesitated, then lowered her head. “I don’t know. I just do what I’m told. But I do know Ms. Rosaline isn 1 happy there.”

Her words hit me hard.
“Can you reach the staff on the island?” I asked, keeping my voice calm.
She paused, then nodded.
“There’s a special phone line just for staff. Ms. Sinclair doesn’t know about it.”
I breathed a sigh of relief.
That was the opening I needed.
I immediately called the psychologist and told him to take the private jet as planned. I made sure he wouldn’t mention anything about me or our conversation.

Then, I arranged to have my own private jet trail the same flight path. It would lead me straight to the island where Rosaline was being held.
Before I left, I turned back to Linda. “Call the staff on the island. Tell them to help me get Rosaline out. Once she’s safe, I’ll give you another million. And I swear on the Moon Goddess, Grandpa won’t lay a finger on yoù.”
Only then did she nod and, in front of me, place the call.
