He can see that, the hopelessness, and offers Isaac a smile. "Trust me on this," he says, even though Isaac's already made it pretty clear he doesn't, on anything. "I know what I'm talking about here."

"I guess you'd understand that better than me, right?" It isn't meant to be a dig or an accusation, but he isn't sure it doesn't come across that way.

[dargent]

"Yeah, I would." He said it flatly, not sure himself if that was meant to be a jab.

"Do you think they'll kill them? I mean... They could... maybe it's not so bad for them? Maybe... The Alphas could always not have them. They ran. Maybe they got away." It sounded ridiculous even to his own ears, but he had to hope, couldn't let himself believe that something bad had happened to them.

Chris shakes his head. "The fact that Derek hasn't been able to find them at all means someone's probably got them, and locked them down in a place where no other wolves can find them."

Frowning, Isaac nods. "Figured as much." God, he hoped they were okay.

[dargent]

"We'll find them, don't worry." Chris didn't like making promises he couldn't guarantee, but Isaac seemed to need the reassurance.

[firsttofreedom]

"I'm more worried about finding them alive." He was sure that eventually, the Alphas would let them find the Betas. On their terms. And probably in pieces.

Chris nods. He can't promise that will happen.
