“Alpha Nathan?””
“He has returned to his Pack for the time being, I presume.”
The situation appeared unfavourable at this juncture. “I require Stella to arrive promptly.”
Nolan re-entered the hotel suite just over an hour later. “We are all fools,” he murmured, placing a contract into Ryder’s hands.
“Brianna is at her store, or will be shortly, the new one that Stella will manage in a month’s time in Toronto, Canada,” he stated, shaking his head.
Ryder’s eyes widened at the notion of Brianna and Logan situated halfway across the globe, entirely vulnerable. The document in his possession was Stella’s employment contract, detailing the country, state, city, and the address of her new workplace. He reviewed it; Stella was receiving numerous benefits for this relocation, along with a substantial salary of $95,000.
Exclaimed in astonishment, causing his eyes to widen.
Questioned the actual worth of Brianna Layla for the first time, enquired whether she compensated all her employees equally and if they received identical benefits, or if Stella was an exception. He sat on the edge of his bed and searched online for the net worth of the Brianna Layla wedding dress designers out of sheer curiosity.
He nearly toppled from the bed he occupied, having learnt of the 60 million dollars; a remarkable sum, and she was identified as a rising star, anticipated to generate even greater revenue as she expanded her stores internationally over the next five years. The article he was reading indicated that she had intentions to establish stores in New York, London, France, and Italy, and that her anticipated net worth would rise significantly upon their opening.
“What is it?”Luca enquired, while Ryder, still in disbelief, simply relinquished his phone for the man to examine. A whistle emanated from him, “Well Ryder, you have secured a millionaire as your Luna.” He presented the information to the rest of the unit.
“It will be exceedingly difficult to bring her in,” he murmured. “One cannot simply extract her from the human realm; her abrupt disappearance would be conspicuous.”
Luca concurred with him. “I may consider organising an extravagant wedding and publicly declare her relocation to Florida,” his Beta contemplated aloud.
“Ryder Wood is at least a financially suitable match for her.” It is probable that she would be anticipated to marry into wealth. What is your present net worth in human society?Enzo enquired.
“Approximately 500 million.” Ryder acknowledged.
“Affirmative, simply disclose your relationship publicly; that will resolve the matter.” Her location will be known to all, allowing her to work remotely from the pack. Hell Ryder, establish a substantial store for that woman in Helena, positioning her headquarters in close proximity to yours.
“I must first persuade her to accept me as her Mate,” he sighed. It is no surprise that she can leave at will, possessing passports; she has been masquerading as a human for eight years. He had viewed the photographs, traversed the globe, and presumably interacted with some of the affluent and renowned individuals of humanity. He was exceedingly fortunate that she had not yet discovered a human male to wed at this juncture.
“Are we travelling to Toronto to retrieve them?”It was Nolan.
“Indeed, I suppose we are,” Ryder affirmed. Nolan’s reference to ‘them’ suggested he believed Stella was also present in that location. Given the apparent closeness between the two, it was plausible that if Stella were aware of her predicament and had informed her, she would promptly seek her out. Technically, it was the woman’s Luna. It is unsurprising that they shared a strong bond.
“That is an exceedingly lengthy flight,” Luca remarked a few minutes later. “I searched online and found no non-stop flights from this location; there are one or two layovers, with the shortest flight duration being 19 to 22 hours.” I will ascertain what I can procure for everyone.
“The passports are in the pack,” Ryder exhaled.
Booking an international flight is impossible without them, so extend the timeframe by approximately 7 hours. He rubbed his hand over his face, realising it would take nearly 2 full days before he could reach her, and they would all experience jet lag as well.
“Nolan, do you believe Stella travelled from Denver to Canada?””
“It is feasible,” he acknowledged, “but as I explored her residence, I discovered travel arrangements with Qantas for a journey scheduled in one month.” She may need to return here and work. I am uncertain; however, I did not locate a passport containing her travel itinerary.
You may need to remain here. Observe her location subsequently. As Enzo retrieves our passports, I will arrange for a private aircraft. Alpha Westley is readily accessible by phone, and we can probably utilise one of his aircraft to depart from Olympia with his company. I will need to provide an explanation, most likely.
Luca was heard snorting with laughter. “Now both of you share a commonality.” Truly shared.
“Silence, Luca; this is not amusing.”
