Lazarus's POV-

As soon as I realized she was off my radar, my sense went insane. I was calling her even before I knew she had left. The office phone was ringing off the hook. I had my men go out a search the area. I went home not long after giving her that call which ended abruptly. Something was not right, and I wanted to find out just what it was. I grab my briefcase, and I leave the office. I was slamming the door behind me. Jamie was in the hallway, and she turned around to see me. She was giving me a sizeable cheesy smile, which soon turned seductive. He doe eyes hinting at the fact that she wanted to close the distance between us and... Epiphany, my senses shouted, pulling me out of her trap. "Not now," I said, walking past her and to the elevator. I got in and pushed the button for the lobby. I run my finger through my messy hair. I knew something was weird this morning, and I couldn't put my finger on it. Her smell is so much sweeter today.

I walk to the parking lot, get into my car, and close the door. I reverse out of the space and drive to the gate. The guards open it and leave. I couldn't help but speed. No time can be wasted in a matter like this. I can't beat the idea of someone kidnapping her or possibly hurting her. I would end up blaming myself for a very long time. I may never forgive myself if anything like that were to happen. I know that I may not show too many emotions to her. But she drives me crazy in the best way possible. She didn't stand for anything. I like being challenged by a petite young woman like her. She has the sexiest lips and the most symmetrical face, and her beautiful hazelnut skin glows in the sun. I don't want to mark her without knowing I will commit to her.
I can admit that I'm a bit caught up on Jamie; I mean, we've had an on-and-off sex-with-benefits fling for the five years that I've acquired territory here. I've had this land for many years. But only in recent years I've decided actually to claim it. I share it with the town's alpha mixed incubus Lestat; he's a good guy who does business well. He's managed to combine share with me and turn the companies in this town into a chain of mini empires, which made us tycoons quickly. We've always been blessed with wealth. But this is more than what we expected to add to our table.

The note was sitting on the counter, and her sweet scent was in the air. I growl, walking to her room. The door was open, and I looked around to see it ransacked. I instantly could tell from the scene that she packed up hastily. I couldn't help but get the faint smell of blood. I looked at the ground to see the shirt she had been wearing this morning. I pick it up, look at it, and then sniff it. Anger boiled from the pits of what soul I had left. I could smell another man, and the blood indicated she was harmed. I walk out of the room and to the kitchen. I pick up the not to see:
"Lazarus, I'll be leaving for a few days. I have a business to take care of. I will be back soon, do not come looking for me.
Epiphany."

I grab my keys and try to go off my scent on her. I have to contain my rage. Being responsible while behind the wheel is something that I need to do.
My phone rings. "Yes?" I answered the phone, my tone showing that I wasn't in the mood for bullshit. "We got a picture of her car at the toll. She's headed to Moon Cove hotel. We have footage from street cam." My team leader says. "Thank you. I'll take it from here." I said.
