Icarus Rose [TRANSLATION]

Chapter Sixty Three

Shawn was sitting in his office with Harry and Liam, searching his computer for possible places where his alpha could be, but none of them convinced him; some were very small, some were very large, some were very dirty, and some were too clean. They had searched every abandoned building in London, Holmes Chapel and Doncaster, but the Maliks had not yet been located.

The alpha's patience began to disappear, impotence filled his being, he wanted to save his omega and he didn't know how, he refused the possibility of losing his Zayn. Harry, for his part, couldn't stay calm, he had started smoking almost like an addict and he was always running from one place to another to make sure his daughter was okay and he checked the same place thousands of times to make sure his alpha wasn't there before looking elsewhere; he asked each of his contacts if they had seen something strange at least five times a day, if Shawn didn't know Harry like he does he would say that he had just lost his mind, but he had lost something more than that, he had lost his other half and he wouldn't stop or slow down until he was back at his side.

Likewise, Shawn needed to rest due to the pregnancy, but he couldn't close his eyes, because if he did, the nightmares about him losing Niall forever would be present; he ate only what was necessary to keep the baby healthy because his mother forced him to, but if it were up to him he wouldn't eat anything. He got in and out of cars, left the house accompanied by at least a dozen guards, interrogated his father's associates and his enemies, he cared for nothing more than finding Niall.

But from one second to another a pain in his chest made presence. He felt as if hot flames were burning inside him, as if his heart were being slowly ripped out, feeling almost as if the arteries and veins that linked it to his body were being torn apart, as a part of himself was going numb.

"Niall," he said in a small voice.

The curly man looked up from the papers he was reviewing and looked around before looking at Shawn.

"Shawn? Are you okay?" He asked, concerned.

Tears began to fall down the omega's face and he stood up. Shawn was shaking and his skin had turned pale.

"Niall! NO! Please don't!" He sobbed and Harry and Liam ran to him, catching him just before he fell to the ground with a slam, his legs unable to support him.

Heartbreaking screams began to come out of the omega while hundreds of tears fell down his cheeks.

"Shawn, what's wrong? Talk to us, for God's sake, tell us what's wrong!" Harry asked, unable to hold back his tears, he couldn't see his friend like this, his heart had broken.

"Niall...no...please, no...Niall, please no...I'm sorry."

"Shawn, what are you sorry about?" Liam asked, his voice cracking and suffused with despair, his eyes filling with tears.

"I... no... Niall no!" The omega sobbed again.

The office door opened and Shawn's family entered in alarm together with several guards, finding that devastating scene.

Shawn could no longer feel Niall through the bond...

Niall was gone.

Three days before.

His arrival in Canada was a complete disaster.

Michael Mendes was desperate and as soon as the plane landed he wrapped his son in his arms, Diana Mendes hurried to have her rooms fixed near where her little one's room was, she ordered her son's favourite dishes to be prepared and a few extra things she had noticed being prepared a lot at the Maliks' house.
