able to look his creator in the eye. If anything happened to the small, sweet man, he would never
forgive himself and would gladly accept any punishment his prince deemed fit, right after he
destroyed the ones responsible.
I want everyone awake and looking for him. I don t care if the club stays closed until he is
found, he is everyone s top priority, Gabriel said, walking past Baptista to go look for his mate. He
paused at the doorway.
If anything has happened to him, I am holding you responsible, he said coldly.
Yes, my prince, Baptista replied.
Gabriel walked past the twins who were waiting outside the office, tears streaming down their
faces.
You two, go over every second of surveillance footage. See if you can discover anything from
it, Gabriel said and moved on without waiting for their response.
We ll find him Baptista, you ll see, Daniel said. Baptista turned a tortured face to the twins.
I hope so, for all our sakes, he said and he, too, left the office to join the others in searching.

Two hours later and they still hadn t found his mate. Gabriel paced the lower level dance floor
that had quickly turned into command central as his coven members frantically searched for his
missing mate. Everyone was doing their best to find Ashby, he knew that, but it did little to assuage
the mounting panic in his chest.
Sir, we checked all the footage and no one came in and no one left during that time that he was
in the kitchen alone, Daniel said.
What was the last thing he said to you? Was he sad? Wanting to go home? Gabriel asked,
getting desperate. David sniffed and wiped his eyes.
He said he couldn t wait to introduce us to pizza and ice cream, Daniel said quietly.
What did you say? Gabriel spun around and faced the two men.
He said that Ashby couldn t wait to introduce us to pizza and ice cream, David said, looking
confused.
Oh dear God! I know where he is! Gabriel said, taking off in a blur that the twins could barely
see much less keep up with.
Gabriel ran past Baptista in the kitchen, who looked as though he were trying to see if there
were any clues he may have missed. Baptista followed Gabriel to the large walk-in freezer.
Gabriel jerked the freezer door open so hard he ripped the heavy metal door from the frame. He
dropped it to one side.
Mon ange! he raced forward to scoop up his tiny mate.
Ab bout f freaking t ime you f ound m me. Ashby shook as his teeth chattered together.
Immediately, a leather jacket was thrust at Gabriel. Baptista had stripped it off as soon as he saw how
badly the small man was shaking.
Mon dieu, I m never letting you out of my sight. Never again. Gabriel walked out of the
kitchen heading toward the stairs.
I w wanted to make sundaes. Daniel and David have never tried ice cream. Ashby s shaking
started to subside somewhat.
I have been losing my mind looking for you. Gabriel buried his face in Ashby s neck.
I was only a little lost, I m sorry you got so upset. But see, I m getting better now. Ashby ran
his fingers through Gabriel s shoulder length hair.
We re going upstairs. I am personally going to get you warm again. Gabriel tightened his hold
as they walked into the main club area where everyone was assembled. Ashby giggled.
OK! he said, laying his head on his mate s broad chest. Gabriel turned to face his coven.
Thank you, all of you, for looking for Ashby. He turned his head slightly.
Baptista, he said to the man standing at the edge of the dance floor without turning around.
Yes, sir? Baptista stepped forward, his back ramrod straight.
Your punishment is that you are permanently assigned to Ashby s protection detail. If this
afternoon is any indication, it will be more than harsh enough, he said as a slight smile tugged one
side of his lips. Baptista s eyes filled with tears.
Thank you sir! he said, bowing nearly in half. Gabriel nodded and carried his mate up the
stairs to their apartment.
Chapter 6
I think I resent that watching over me became a punishment, Ashby said, poking Gabriel in the
chest. Gabriel smiled softly down at his mate who still had blue-tinged lips.
You forget, I have been listening to your misadventures with Nicolas and Rebecca for the past
couple months, Gabriel said leaning forward and taking Ashby s lips between his own. Ashby
leaned forward in his arms trying to deepen the kiss, but Gabriel pulled back and winked down at his
shivering angel.
Let s get you in the shower, mon ange, Gabriel said, walking through their door and shutting it
behind them. Without stopping in the master bedroom he headed straight to the master bath. He gently
placed Ashby on the counter and went to the large stone-tiled walk-in shower. He adjusted the
