We’ve been in the car for just under twenty hours, it would have been longer, but I speeded a lot and

refused to stop. I want this done, so I can get back to searching for Anna. I glance at Rick in the NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

passenger seat, “where are we meeting them?” I sound as tired as I feel.

“I’ve plugged into the GPS, it’s some wooded area on the border.” Rick is looking on his phone as he

speaks to me. My GPS pings and the directions start telling me where to go.

“Nice and out of the way, doesn’t scream holiday to me.

“I can’t imagine an out–of–town Alpha is here for our splendid trees.” I let off a humph in agreement

and we go back to silence. It’s not awkward, it’s the kind of silence that lets you just be. I’ve known Rick

my whole life so companionable silence is alright with both of us.

As we pull into a mud road an hour later the sun is just going past the tree line. I spot Darryl and Lewis

standing to the side next to an SUV just like ours, most packs stick with the standard black SUV’s if not

on four paws. I pull up and get out of the car, after a good stretch I walk over to Darryl. Clasping

Darryl’s hand and then Lewis I say “Did we beat Callum? I thought he would get here before us”

“Yeah, we thought so too but we haven’t been able to reach him. Our visitors are about three miles

north of here, he has his warriors standing guard from about half a mile out.” Darryl responds.

“So, he doesn’t want any visitors then” Rick chuckles.

“I suggest for now we watch and see what he’s doing, I don’t want to create a multiple pack war if we

can avoid it” I don’t like this, Darryl is right though, if this Alpha is just here for a holiday, we could

create a war for all central American packs.

We have been keeping back and watching this Max guy for five days now. He hasn’t done much of

interest, beside the fact that he treats his warriors like something he has stepped in. I’m sitting in the

lounge of our cabin having what they pass for coffee here. Axel, Rick’s wolf comes padding into the

lounge and he stops by the small two–seater sofa and seems to be looking around. He’s probably

looking for the shorts I kicked under the sofa, I reach under and pop them on the coffee for him. Within

a few blinks Rick is standing before me pulling his shirts on, Alphas can instantly change but lesser

wolves take a bit longer. Axel can switch fairly quickly as Rick holds a lot of Alpha tendencies.

“He’s going out tonight, me and Lewis overheard Max saying he’s going to collect his mate” Rick has

walked into the connected kitchen. to doctor his own coffee.

“That sad sack of an Alpha has a mate, feel sorry for that she–wolf.” I wince as I drain my mug.

Goddess this coffee is awful. Rick comes and takes a seat next to me.

“I think we should follow him,” I look at Rick with a raised brow, “He was telling his head warrior to

make sure the money was transferred so he could grab his mate and leave the whore house as soon

as possible.”

“So, he’s paying for her?”

“That’s what it sounds like. If she is a wolf, then we have to be sure she wants to be there.”

“I assume Lewis is telling Darryl this too?” Rick nods, “Alright. I suggest we go in wolf form. Let’s go

and meet Darryl and Lewis.”

We have been following Max and his Head Warrior for about forty- five minutes and they have pulled

off to what looks like an abandoned farmhouse. It’s not very big, the land around it is empty which adds

to the feeling of abandonment. The white paint of the house is peeling, and we can’t see anything in the

windows, we are staying back so we don’t spook the Alpha and his man. After only a few minutes we

see Max come out the side door of the house pulling a petite woman with him. We can’t tell who she is,

but we can see she is n*ked; she has dark hair and even from here I can see the bruises on her skin.

The wind takes that moment to carry the smell of dark roast coffee and freshly mowed grass, no one

else can smell it. Just me. I rapidly switch. back to my human form not caring about my nudity “Don’t

lose that car. that’s Anna!” I’m growling as I rapidly shift back to Leo. It’s time to fight for my mate. Me.

Rick, Darryl and Lewis aren’t leaving here without her.

‘Mine! Mate! Mine! Mine!‘ Leo is frothing at the mouth to get to his mate as I put on another burst of

speed. I don’t bother following the car. Lewis and Darryl are following it and will let us know if it diverts

from the route. me and Rick are heading straight for the cabin. Once we reach the one–mile radius

from his cabin I slow and link with Rick.

‘We need to take care of the warriors, as many as possible‘

“There are eight of them out here I can smell them‘ Rick sounds excited at the prospect of fighting.

Tll take the five on the left, you take the three on the right‘ I laugh in my head at Rick’s response, ‘Sure

you take all the fun‘ He runs off at the same time I do. We need to do this quick and dirty, once Anna

gets here. I want nothing standing in my way. When I’m close enough to the first warrior I pounce and

snap his neck between my jaws. Poor bastard

didn’t see it coming. The next two go down just as quickly and just as deadly. Number four is in wolf

form and smells me coming, snarling at each other walking in a circle. Each trying to figure out the

other’s first move. I swish my tail to draw his eye, it works, and I lunge. I miss his neck and dig my

claws into his back to stop myself sailing through the air, the wolf howls into the air as I snap my jaw

closed around his hind leg. I use my strength to fl*p his wolf onto his back. and I rip his throat out with

my claws before he can make another sound. He doesn’t die straight away but I am done. I walk away

leaving him to bleed into the ground. I run to number five but he’s not here, I can smell him so he either

ran when he heard number four die, or he has gone to the cabin.

‘Heads up Alpha, Max and Anna are here‘ Ricks sounds over the link.

‘Darryl and Lewis are with you?”

“They are.”

‘Wait for Anna to be clear and then we go. I want them all dead and Anna out of here as soon as

possible.‘

I stay where I am, I’m sure Darryl, Lewis and Rick are ready to go. Coming from more than one

direction when we are small in numbers is a good thing. If number five is in the house that leaves a

possibility of four of them, I like these odds. I watch as Max drags my mate from the car, from here I

can see she is marked more than I saw at the farmhouse. She is covered in bruises from head to toe,

she has open. wounds on her torso and a nasty gash on her leg that looks infected. She’s thin, too thin,

they probably withheld food and maybe even water from her. Her hair is shorter than it was and looks

dull and lifeless. She has a glazed look in her eyes, she’s talking to winter. I growl as he backhands her

so hard, I watch her stumble.

“Do. Not. Ignore. Me.” Max is shouting at her getting closer and closer with cach word, “I said go inside,

upstairs you will find one bedroom. I

want you on your knees next to the bed by the time I come up.” Like hell he’s getting in that house.

Anna hurries away and into the house, the second the door closes I let loose a howl and charge

towards Max. Just as I’m about to reach him a massive wolf comes out of nowhere and knocks me

from the side, I roll as I land and come up snarling. I was so focused on Anna I didn’t see his Head

Warrior leave the group.

“I expect you to deal with this while I make the whore mine.” I hear from Max as a howl sounds out as

Axel makes short work of one of the warriors. We are still one short. I see Lewis and Darryl come up.

behind the head warrior. With three of us closing in on him and Axel coming over to stand next to me

the head warrior knows he’s screwed. He crouches low and lets off a grumbling growl, he’s willing to

fight for his Alpha. As he lunges for me Darryl grabs his tail between his jaw which causes him to

sweep around to find out who has him. Lewis and Axel snap their jaws around his hind legs as I come

in and claw

I into his throat. I stand back and watch as he bleeds out, I don’t take the time to revel in the kill. I

quickly dash through the cabin door and charge up the stairs. I take the scruff on Max’s shirt in my jaw

and fling him backwards down the stairs where Rick is waiting in human form. I walk over to Anna on

all fours. She is on the floor bleeding from the neck, I lean down and clean it with my tongue, I quickly

shift back when I see the mating mark. I pick her up bridal style and start down the stairs.

“Don’t kill him, Rick. The bastard marked her. We need him alive.” I say as I walk past Rick, Max is out

cold at the bottom of the stairs. I can’t say more than that, I’m raging, Leo is pacing and demanding to 1

kill the fucker who dared mark our mate.
