Ben povLorenzo grunted as the bullet hit his shoulder but he kept walking with Anna cradled in his arms."I got you my love",he ran around the corner as Mindy fired after him screaming. "Drop your gun now!!!",Luca yelled."Fuck you!!",Mindy yelled back. "Ben we are here",Sebastian mind links me and I almost sigh in relief. Luca aims and shoots her leg causing her to scream and run away. How she got in the hospital stumps me. "Fucking bitch",Luca growls. I check on Hunter and rush out to see Luca fall. He groans as Sebastian rolls him over and we all gasp seeing bullet wounds in his chest and stomach. "Luca, I get on the ground with him, stay awake brother",he growls."Tell Lorenzo I'm sorry, I growl at him he can't quit, tell Anna I only loved her and I'm sorry",I smacked his face annoyed he is saying his goodbyes."Stop that, I smacked him as doc works on his injuries, you can tell her yourself and Lorenzo too",he grunts as he looks at me."I don't think I can Ben, he looks horr
Mindy povI managed to get away but my leg hurts like a bitch. I hobble to my hotel room and sink to the floor as I look at my leg."That fucker",I seethe as I think of Luca shooting me. He took all my rounds to protect his bitch and brother. I would go back but first I was going to have to dig this bullet out and heal.Ben povI felt Marie snuggled against me as I woke up and fuck if she didn't look beautiful. She was so tiny."My love",I kissed her lips before easing away to make us breakfast. As I went into the kitchen a knock had me almost growling. I opened to Lorenzo so I let him in."Sorry if I'm bothering you Ben, he looked exhausted, I just...I just....",I motioned to the kitchen."Join me while I make breakfast for us",he nodded and sat while I made food."Did you sleep?",he nods no at my question so I sigh."Lorenzo both made it you need to rest now",he shrugs."I'm afraid to sleep, he mumbles, I'm afraid if I do something will happen and I will lose someone I love",I plate
Mindy povMy cell rang after the horrible time I had digging the damn bullet out and I answered in a tired voice."Hello",I hear a sigh."It's me Bethany, she speaks soft, I've been recognized by Lorenzo so I can't sneak you in anymore",she mumbles."Where are you?",I try to sit up."I'm leaving this town Mindy if they get to me I'm dead. I didn't go far enough",she sounds out of breath."You pulled it off this long. Why run now?",I almost cuss at her."Because Luca and Lorenzo will kill me I fabricated fake videos and emails of their mate selling private information to an enemy. I killed their pup and tore them apart that alone is a death sentence ",her tone says I'm stupid."Act like you have amnesia Bethany they are to stupid to tell anyway",she scoffs."I was never good at lying Mindy and both grew up with me they both know when I'm lying. Nope I'm out",she cuts the call and I flop back on the bed pissed that my only link to get in the Howl pack is gone. She wanted to run when Luc
Mindy povBen wanted to meet which thrilled me but I also know he wouldn't agree so easy so it is a trap. I love him so much I am willing to risk it but I can barely move my thigh is sore as hell."Once I'm better I will lure him to a secluded spot and drug him",I say out loud. I just hope I can manage him on my own fucking Bethany hasn't answered In a few days now.Ben povWe race to the hospital and Luca is sitting up staring at Anna who hasn't woken up yet."Luca",his brother rushes to him and hugs him gently. "Hi bro, he looks Lorenzo over and frowns, you haven't been sleeping or eating much",He growls and Lorenzo sighs sadly."Don't be mad Luca, my mate moves closer to them, he was worried for you and couldn't but I made him",I fight my grin as Luca covers his mouth hiding a smile. Marie is so fucking cute and it looks like she is coming out of her shell."Thank you honey",he smiles at her."Are you hurting?,she asks taking his hand, I could go get doc",he nods no."I called yo
Ben povWe watch Bethany text Mindy and I'm pacing while we wait. Sebastian moved us to his office in case she calls because Bethany will put it on speaker.An hour later her cell rings and we press record to get evidence for council."Where have you been Bethany",,we hear Marie hiss."In hiding Mindy I told you both wanted me dead",Bethany could play the part of damsel in distress well."I need you to come to my location",Mindy growls."I'm not risking it yet, Bethany sighs sadly, I don't want to run into Luca or Lorenzo ",Bethany adds sighing again."Forget them they can stay stuck up Anna's ass. You need to come to me so I can get help to move. My thigh is killing me",she moans in pain.Luca smiles a huge smile and looks my way."Poison",he mouths and I smile back."How did you get hurt?",Bethany asks looking at us."Fucking Luca shot me and it still hurts",she whines and I hold in my chuckle. "Fine send me your location I will risk my life for you but if I die it is on you Mindy"
Ben povWe leave early the next day to set up our men and surround the place Mindy is hiding in. Bethany is in a cell while Sebastian decides her fate. Anna woke up but she looks sad as both Luca and Lorenzo try to talk to her. She just lays there looking detached. She even tried to go back to work but Sebastian alpha ordered her to stay in bed only getting up to pee, shit or shower. She cried but refused Luca or Lorenzo's comfort."Think they will ever get through to her?",I ask Sebastian as he drives to Mindy's location. "They have a shit ton to grovel over brother, he sighs out, she lost a pup and was physically hurt by her mate I doubt it will be easy to make up with her",he hated her crying after his order."She looks so underweight ",I say looking at him. This fact pissed him off as he also ordered her to eat which she hated hearing but nodded."Doc says she is and he has been trying since she joined the pack to get her eating ",Fuck Luca and Lorenzo got a long way to go with h
Ben povI head home and catch Marie as she launches her little body at me crying my name. She kisses me and cries making Sun whine in my head."I was so worried Ben",she whimpers. Spencer sighed as he got up and walked near us."She refused to eat, he looks worried, said she couldn't worry about food while you were our there ",I rub her back as I draw her closer to me."I'm sorry Ben I was to worried about you ",I kissed her mark as she hugged me. I could feel her unease once I hit our territory but we needed to listen in on Mindy and Bethany talking and we found out a lot."I know love but you need to stay healthy especially for Hunter who is coming home soon",I hated using our pup as a bargaining chip but she needs to eat because ninety eight pounds is not good to me. I worried for her but so did Spencer, Jason and Sebastian. "I'm here now so your going to eat for me",she nods holding on tight. Spencer pats her back as he leaves and I walk to our kitchen holding my girl tight to me
Ben povWe watch Bethany sit with her back to them and I sigh as he fakes picking the lock again."Hurry up, Mindy orders, I want out before they come back",he scoffs."This isn't easy Mindy I have to pick it carefully because one wrong move gets me shocked",she huffs."I wonder where the whole pack is?",Mindy hisses out."Probably out shopping",Tanner mumbles as he looks at the lock."Your so stupid, Bethany says as she lays down her back still to Mindy and Tanner, she wolves like us don't get the happy ever after Mindy we get death and sadness. Your only hope is finding your mate but as shitty as we have been we don't deserve one. Maybe my death will bring peace because this life I have now fucking sucks",both Tanner and Mindy looked her way but Bethany covered up and laid there in silence. "Your coming with me Bethany ",Mindy growls at her."I'm staying here",Bethany whispers and stops talking to them. She must of felll asleep because Mindy keeps saying stuff but Bethany remains q
