Captivity

The prince and girl turned to face the new arrival. Drake hadn't even heard the man approach him. In his hand, he held Crysta's cell phone and from the looks of it, he had already surveyed the scene, "I came as fast as I could. How many have gone missing?" the man's familiar voice rang out.

'Where have I seen this man before?' Honour clawed through her memories in search of the man's face, but couldn't seem to find it.

To her surprise, Drake looked a little relieved instead of startled by the man's sudden appearance, "I can't be sure yet. I have confirmed that three are missing, but they are from those I'm aware of. I didn't expect to see you this far from Lycaon, Thomas Chase."

The man's face snapped into focus in the girl's mind. She'd seen him at the reserve. This was Katie's guardian and one of the famed Chase hunters.
