Quinn POV

Rachel and Mandy jolted awake at my scream.

“No! No! No! No!” I cried! They were going to kill him. I felt the sapphire necklace warm. That was odd. It felt like my power was feeding into the stone.

Kat and Thomas ran into the living room, both in their pajamas. Circling the couch, Kat kneeled in front of me and placed her hands on my cheeks.

Warmth spread through her palms while her eyes glowed red. Her power soothed some of my agony. She looked up at Thomas with a concerned look.

“She saw Derek. He was being tortured by…” She paused, a concerned look on her face. “Your mother.” She let go of my cheeks but remained kneeling in front of me.

“I’ll kill that son of a bitch for hurting my boy!” Sam roared, over hearing what Kat said as he entered the room in only his gym shorts.

His eyes flashed to those of his wolf, fighting the urge not to shift. Thomas placed his hands on his Beta’s shoulders. “Calm down Sam.”

“I’ve been pretty damn calm Thomas! And now I hear he’s bei

    —Quinn POVBy morning, the trackers were able to narrow down where Derek was. Now it was time for me, Fred, Elan, and Rachel to rescue my mate while Sam, Kat, and Mandy would be on standby if anything were to happen. Thomas would stay at the pack house with my parents and would work on a battle plan and arrange a meeting with all the surrounding pack leaders.After I woke up screaming, I wasn’t able to go back to sleep. I felt sluggish and a little feverish. I chalked it down to stress and no sleep. Serina was quieter than usual. Even she seemed sluggish and lethargic. As I followed Fred, Rachel, and Elan out the door, my mother stopped me.“Quinn, honey?” I turned to face her. A worried expression took over her beautiful face. She walked over to me and wrapped her arms around my body, squeezing tight. “Please be careful.” She kissed my temple. I gave her a quick nod. “I will be fine mom. I love you.”Saving our shifter strength, we stayed in our human forms as we walked to the moun

    ——Derek POV I could smell her scent on them. Although I knew they hadn’t done anything WITH her, the thought of my mate’s scent on anyone else but me made me almost feral. Even with the mating and marking not fully complete, I had a suspicion that with her power, I was also affected by her heat. Fred and Rachel helped me through the cave and out to the wooded area. The fresh air filled my nostrils, finally allowing me to take a real breath. Rachel left me with Fred as she went to grab a bag. The inside showed lots of first aid items. Quickly the pair worked in sync as they quickly banged my wounds and gave me some water. My insides still felt raw and on fire from the wolfsbane. The water did little to soothe the pain, but my body welcomes the much needed hydration. As I tried to stand, my world began to spin. “Woah, man, easy there.” Fred said as he wrapped an arm around my waist. “Quinn…” I croaked out. I knew she needed me like I needed her. I couldn’t help but want them to

    Quinn POVI woke up blissfully sore. I felt a sense of fulfillment and completeness after I marked my mate. After three more rounds of intense sex, Derek and I crashed from exhaustion and the heat finally subsided. In the middle of the night, I had gone down to the kitchen where Kat had brewed a tea with healing elements for Derek’s injuries. Derek had been less than impressed when I woke him up to drink the concoction which he described tasted like “bark mixed with soil, and Gollum's asshole.”I pressed the button to move the protective shutters up around the packhouse. Just as I was climbing back into bed to snuggle up against my sleeping mate, my mother mind-linked me. ‘Quinn sweetie, I need you and Derek to come out of the pack house. There’s something you need to see.’Derek woke up, startled by the mind link that went to both of us. ‘Ok, we will be right down.’ Derek looked at me with a quizzical look. I just shrugged. “Good morning, beautiful.” A lazy smile spread on Derek’

    Quinn POV“So, next steps would be joining forces to take down Rowan. Are you all in?” My mother asked the group.All of our guests had varied expressions of perplexion and shock. Alpha Damien, was the first to respond while he steepled his hands and forearms rested on his knees. “I would say that the Moon Goddess brought us all here for a reason. We weren’t brought here at the same time by chance.”Alpha Andrew grunted in agreement. By the end of the discussion all the pack leaders had agreed upon an alliance and joined forces to take down Rowan. What they failed to discuss is why they called me their ‘Savior’ or ‘Queen’.” My mother and I were the last to be in Thomas’s office. She walked over to me and cupped my cheeks. I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. I met her blue eyes that seemed to sparkle in the office overhead lights. I pulled her into a hug. “How are you able to talk about what happened to you so casually?” I asked into her arm. She pet the back of my head

    I raise an eyebrow at him. He pushes my office chair away from my desk before kneeling on the ground in front of the spot where my feet would go under the desk. He jerks the chair to him and slowly moves his hand up my legs and under my skirt.I swear my pussy had its own heartbeat due to how much I wanted him. “Derek I’m serious I need to get these done” looking at the stack of papers.“Mhmmmm” he responds, moving my panties down my legs as he kisses my knee. “Do what you have to do. I’m not stopping you.” He pulls my waist to the end of the chair so he has better access in between my legs. I try to focus myself on the papers when he brushes my clit with his thumbs. I moan at the feeling and I hear him chuckle.I feel his hot tongue lick over my lips, and land on my clit moving in circles. My hands clutch the desk while I try to focus on the task at hand.A finger slowly making its way into me. Allowing my wetness to cover it as he moved it in and out while still licking my clit.My

    Quinn POVI woke up to something hard near my belly button. I looked down to see the monster was alive again. How could that be possible when we woke up multiple times for rounds 2,3, and 4? I looked back up to Derek’s face, who was still sound asleep. My body was sore and My cervix felt like it had been beat up while my bladder felt like It was going to explode. I carefully and quietly rolled off Derek and put on my robe before walking to the bathroom. I peed for what seemed like forever. I got up turning the shower on needing the hot water to soothe my sore muscles. I closed my eyes bracing my hands on the tile wall, letting the hot water pour on me. This morning was one of the first mornings that I hadn’t woken up from nightmares or woke up in strange places.Lost in my own thoughts, I felt warm arms wrap around my waist, tingles shooting over my skin making me jump“Just me, my little wolf,” Detek whispered in my ear. Before he started kissing where my mark sat. I let out a sof

    Quinn POV I walked into my grandfather’s hospital room as I had many times before. Only this time, was different. It was the first time since I had learned the truth about myself and after I had received my necklace. I absentmindedly rubbed the sapphire as I walked closer. My grandfather had his own room. He lay propped up with wires and tubes coming off of him. He looked more fragile than the last time I had visited. His once black hair was now peppered with silver. On the wall hung pictures that Ryan and I had drawn with crayon over the years. The room smelled of antiseptic and spice. I sat on the cushioned chair next to the hospital bed and carefully placed my hand with my grandfather’s. He let out a soft sigh, as if he was reacting to my touch. Before I could grasp what was happening, I was sent into a vision. I was screaming in the middle of a field as dead bodies lie all around me. The scream of my mother pierced the air before a sickening sound of flesh and bone breaking

    Quinn POVI woke up just as the sky turned into cotton candy pinks and blues. I woke in my bed curled in the arms of the man I loved. He must have moved me in here after I had fallen asleep on the couch. Derek nuzzled my neck and pressed a kiss where his mark lay. I shivered and allowed my body to relax in his touch.A horn rang out in the distance, signaling everyone it was time to get into our positions. When I made it downstairs, my family was already waiting. I walked up to Ryan and wrapped my arms around his small frame. When I met his eyes, my heart began to break as I saw tears begin to fall down his round cheeks.“I’m scared, Quinnie.” He whispered.I squeezed him once more. “You are the bravest boy I know. You will do a great job today, I just know it.” I squatted in front of him. “Do you remember what your job is?”He nodded. “Help Auntie Kat and Rachel get all the women and children to the bunkers.”I gave Ryan a small smile. “Exactly. Mandy and Frederick will be down there

    EPILOGUE 8 YEARS LATER:“Momma, I want to go see uncle Ryan!” Ellie groaned. She stomped her pink-glitter converse into the gravel of the driveway. I continued to buckle Pryor into his car seat. I sighed and looked down at my baby boy who had a big gummy smile on his face. I kissed the tip of his nose before closing the car door. “Ellisse, how many times do I need to go over this with you?” She crossed her arms and looked so much like myself, I almost wanted to take a picture of it. Ellie groaned again and looked up at the sky. “I just don’t understand why I have to go with you to get grandpa.”’I squatted down in front of her. Trying to level with an eight year old was not easy. I straightened her jacket. “We will be quick honey. I know you are excited to see Uncle Ryan on his special day, but Great Grampa wants to be there too.” “I want to see uncle Ryan, but I want to see Rykerrrrr” She growled. Ryker was Mandy and Elan’s son who was a year younger than Ellisse. She was transfix

    Six Weeks LaterQUINN POVFinally getting Ellie to sleep, I flopped down on the bed. I clutched my breasts and hissed as they were sore from my crotch goblin using them as her feeding bags.Derek walked out of the bathroom, a towel low on his hips. My eyes trailed down his toned abs down to his v line where the towel was. A clearing of the throat from Derek made me snap out of the day dreaming I was in. He scratched the back of his neck. “You know, Instead of looking at me like a snack, I can give you a treat,” a smirk went across his face.I blushed. My hormones were all over the place after having Ellie. One minute I wanted to fuck, the next I wanted to sleep or cry. I don’t know how Derek was keeping it together with my 17 personalities.I perched myself on my elbows and gave him a “come here” motion with my pointer finger. “Quinn don’t tease!” Derek pouted “I’m not teasing, come here,” I said with a small smile on my face. Without wasting another second Derek dropped his towel

    9 MONTHS LATER:POV Quinn “One more push Quinn. She’s almost here.” The nurse encouraged me. I squeezed Derek’s hand once more, making him wince. He had been warned not to look over the curtain and sure enough, as our baby girl was getting pulled out of me, he looked and began to sway on his feet. “Will someone please bring our King a wet compress.” The nurse between my legs instructed. She looked up at me. “One more push Quinn.”I shook my head. “I can’t.” I cried. Derek was able to pull himself together and pressed a kiss to my sweaty temple. “You can do it, baby.” Derek encouraged me. I screamed as I gave my last push, giving everything I had left in me. The equipment and lights moved and flickered at my scream. No one in the room flinched when they heard my scream. Instead they carried on like I wasn’t an octave away from blowing eardrums out. I heard my baby girl’s wail as she entered this world. My body sagged from the immediate relief of being down with pushing. I looked

    6 months Later:POV Quinn “Ryan, come on! Breakfast is ready!” I called up the stairs. I was beginning to lose my patience with this boy. My once fun, loving, well-behaved younger brother, was now going through a terrible rebellious stage. Ryan stomped his way down the main stair-case of the packhouse. I rolled my eyes at his overdramatized walking. “You’re going to be late for school.”“So?” Ryan grumbled as he walked to the kitchen. “SO… It doesn't look good for the future alpha to be missing school or being late. You need to show the pack that you are reliable.” I internally cringed at my words. Ryan simply rolled his eyes and continued to go into the kitchen and sit on one of the stools at the island. I placed a heaping stake of chocolate chip pancakes in front of him. “I made your favorite.” “Thanks,” Ryan grumbled as he shoved a large piece of pancake in his mouth. Currently we were staying in my childhood pack house with the Red Night Pack as my father took some time to t

    Quinn POVDerek sensed something was amidst and followed me outside where we both shifted into our wolves. The full moon’s energy coursed through us, giving us heightened speed and senses. I heard howls in the distance accompanied by mind-link messages that they too were on their way to see the rise of Damien Pierce. As we approached the hospital, the voices that had quieted since receiving my necklace were now talking all at once. “Savior! Follow the power!” The tall slate brick building came into view. Seline pushed herself faster. Wanting nothing more than to get closer to the energy source that emanated from the tall building. As we approached the hospital, two nurses stood outside waiting for us with scrubs to change into. Derek and I quickly shifted back to our human forms. “My Queen.” The nurses bowed before handing us the clothing. I still didn’t know how to handle being called that. I certainly did not feel like a queen. I gave them a small smile before getting changed. “W

    What the man didn’t tell me was that my grandfather was not only speaking in his sleep, but approximately around the time Rowan was killed, he roared loud enough to make the building tremble under its intensity. Reluctantly, I had sent a mind link to my father to let him know about the situation. To no surprise he didn’t respond. With Ryan with Thomas and Kat, Derek and I were now here at the hospital in my grandfather’s room. I felt the stone on my necklace heat as we got closer to my grandfather’s bed. The sensation made me gasp. Derek looked at me warily. “You okay?” I tugged on the string to push the stone off my skin. “Ye-yeah” I stammered. My grandfather began to stir in his bed. Maybe it was because of the full moon tonight. Everyone seemed to be antsy, which was normal for a full moon. I walked over to my grandfather and put my hand into his. His complexion had improved significantly since the last time I had visited. His cheeks were less gaunt and now had a pink hue to th

    Quinn POV Amelia and the remaining members of her and Rowan’s army were nowhere to be found. I immersed myself in helping tend to any injured and to support the mourning families. I refused to acknowledge that now that the other services for the fallen had been commenced, it was now time for my mother’s. The impending storm that threatened to come held off for my mother’s service. Whispers and side glances plagued my senses as I stood next to my father and Ryan. Derek stood behind me, close enough to let me know that he was there, but also allowing me to mourn with my family. My black knee length dress felt like it was suffocating me. I tugged at the fabric, attempting to get more room but unsuccessful. My father stood as still as a statue in an all black bespoke suit. His hands rested in front of him as he continued to look at my mother’s dark cherry coffin. Thomas led the ceremony. His usually bright emerald green eyes were dull and filled with unshed tears. Everyone was dressed

    Quinn POV Howls echoed in unison throughout the territory as we all felt the tether to my mother break. I focused my energy on the enemy in front of me. I could break after this bitch was destroyed. Something must have spooked Amelia because she extinguished her smoke spheres and looked at me with her blood shot eyes. “This is over Quinn. I will take all that you took from me!” Before I could move towards her, she vanished in a cloud of smoke along with Rowan’s body. I let out a growl. “I’ll be waiting!”As soon as Amelia was gone, I ran back over to my mother and father. I fell to my knees in front of my mother and wrapped my arms around my father’s torso. “Daddy, she’s gone.” His entire body trembled as the other half to his soul was taken from him. Members of the surrounding packs circled us. Some wounded, some missing limbs, but all giving their respect for one of their leaders. I heard the sound of feet hitting the ground quickly before I heard the sound of Kat gasp. She fel

    QUINN POVI knew she was gone when I heard my father‘s roar. It echoed throughout the field making me wince from the pain in my ears. I looked up to see my dad‘s wolf running to my mother who was still cradled in my arms. He licked her face as if his kisses could help heal what was broken. Tears streamed down my face as I felt her tether to me vanish. I brushed some hair away from her pale lifeless face. I heard bones cracking and rearranging before the bloody hands of my father touched my mothers face. Extreme guilt filled me knowing she just sacrificed her life for me. I looked at my father who looked like he had seen a ghost.“Anna baby please wake up please wake up” he cried shaking her pepper in her face with kisses “please baby wake up wake up you can’t be gone” he looked at me and panic.“What have you done you bitch!” The woman screamed. In my despair I had almost forgotten that Amelia was still alive. I stood up and moved in between my parents and Amelia. Her eyes became a
