Willow’s POV When morning came, I felt like I had been crying all night long, as my eyes felt swollen and to my surprise I was still in Alpha Chance’s arms. He had not left my side all night long proving to me that he was going to stand beside me through all of this with Beta Shawn. The sound of Alpha Chance’s phone going off stirred him as he tried not to wake me. Stretching in his arms I moved from his chest so he could reach for his phone on the nightstand. “Hello.” He said into the phone as I settled myself next to his body letting my head rest once again on his chest. “We will be right down.” I then heard him say and I wondered what was going on. “Is everything okay?” I asked him once he hung the phone up. “There was another rogue attack last night at Blood Moon and Alpha Hunter wants to speak to you.” Alpha Chance tells me and I knew this was my opportunity to talk to him about my plan with Damon. “Speaking of the rogues, I wanted to talk to you about something.” I tol
Willow’s POV “Willow, we may know who your father is. I was going to talk to you last night about it, but you had taken off. I want to have a blood sample taken from you first so that we can validate it.” Alpha Chance tells me and I understand why he wants to test my blood first and I didn’t want to get my hopes up before it is validated. “Okay. Just let me know when you need to take it.” I tell him as I pray that he has found him. “Now we need to go and talk to Alpha Hunter.” Alpha Chance says as he pulls me out of his office and towards the meeting room with Beta Shawn following us. I tried my best to wipe away the evidence that I had just been crying before we stepped into the meeting room. As we step into the meeting room, I am shocked to see Jess sitting at the table with a smirk on her face as she watches the three of us enter the meeting room. Mind linking Alpha Chance, I ask him, “What is Jess doing here?” “I don’t know.” He linked back with a confused look on his fa
Willow’s POV As the car pulled into the parking lot of Mountainside Inn Diner, I felt my heart begin to race knowing what I was about to do. It had been a few days since the meeting and Alpha Hunter had called in all the Alphas to help with this matter along with Luna Rayne who was in the driver seat beside me. The men were all on standby and it was only Luna Rayne and me going into the diner to speak to Aunt Connie. It took a lot of convincing on our behalf for the men to allow us to do this on our own, but I thought it would be best not to scare off the only lead I had to getting in touch with Damon. The plan was simple, talk to Aunt Connie and have her relay a message to Damon that I need to speak with him. It all seemed simple enough, but the question was, would Aunt Connie relay the message to Damon. “You ready to do this?” Luna Rayne asks me as she shuts the car off. I stared at the door of the diner for a few seconds before I say, “I’m as ready as I’m going to be.” We
Willow’s POV “Willow, we need to talk.” Beta Shawn tells me as he follows me out of the meeting room and to the front door as I watch the last of the SUVs pulling out. I knew we had a lot to talk about but at that moment I didn’t have time to talk. I needed to figure out a plan fast on how I was going to get to Damon. “Willow, do you hear me? We need to talk.” He says again and I began to feel the world around me begin to spin and I grab onto his arm to steady myself. “Are you okay?” He now asks me as he grabs ahold of me to help me stand. I didn’t know if it was from all the stress I had going on or if there was something wrong with me. “I don’t know. I feel dizzy.” I told him as everything was now spinning in my head. “We need to have the pack doctor take a look at you.” Beta Shawn said as he picked me up in his arms and began to carry me. “No, I don’t have time for this.” I told him, trying to wiggle in his hold, but there was no use because he was as strong as an ox an
Chance’s POV We were halfway to the ridge that Willow had pointed out on the map when Alpha Hunter got a call and had the driver pull the SUV over to the side of the road. I began to wonder what was going on and I became ultimately worried that Willow was in trouble. Something in my gut told me that the call was about her and sure enough when he ended the call he said, “You need to get into the SUV behind me and head back to Red Moon now.” I didn’t even wait for an explanation as I got out of the SUV and headed to the one with Alpha Reese in it, while passing Alpha Conner who was taking my place with Alpha Hunter. As soon as I got into the other SUV, the driver turned the vehicle around and headed back to Red Moon in a hurry. “What is going on?” I asked Alpha Reese who looked worried and I knew this had to involve our Lunas. “Our Lunas are in danger. Jess has dark magic inside of her and she is trying to get to them now. They are locked in your bedroom, but Rayne doesn’t think
Willow’s POV My eyes fluttered open and the pain in my head hit me hard, but my hand instantly went to my abdomen hoping that the pup was okay. “The pup is fine.” I heard Luna Rayne say as she stood over me. “What happened and where am I?” I ask looking around and realized I was back in the infirmary again. “Well, you almost blew the two of us up and made a mess of the packhouse, but you saved us from Jess.” Luna Rayne tells me with a half-smile on her face and I wonder how bad the packhouse was and if Alpha Chance was going to be upset with me destroying our home. “Is Jess…?” I couldn’t say it but Luna Rayne knew what I was asking. “No, at least I don’t think so. Our mates are looking for her and Beta Shawn.” Luna Rayne says, and I begin to worry now about Beta Shawn. If they haven’t found him yet, I am worried that Jess did something to him or she took him. If the Moon Witch had control of Jess’s body, then she knew that Beta Shawn is my other mate and she may use him to g
Willow’s POV There was no time to spare and the men went to work looking at the maps to pinpoint where the best areas were to surround the cabin. Alpha Reese wasn’t too thrilled with Luna Rayne volunteering to accompany me, but she knew how to calm her mate and I needed to take pointers from her. As the Alphas worked on a plan, Luna Rayne and I helped the she wolves and the pups from the rogue pack get comfortable until we found suitable living quarters for them. Anna told me that the rogue attack that occurred the other night was from the few male wolves in the pack that went out in search of food for the pack and that only a few returned unsuccessful. Without Damon to guide them, the rogue pack would never have survived and I was now happy that I had pointed Alpha Hunter in their direction. Thankfully, Red Moon was equipped for situations like this and our men went to work putting up a huge tent with cots in it to house our new members. Our cooking staff went to work right awa
Chance’s POV We got the okay from Rayne that it was good to come to the cabin and we moved back to our SUVs to drive to the cabin so that we could bring Damon with us. While Willow mind linked me Damon’s demands, I knew that she had done her part to convince him to help us. I hated that whole pardoning him thing but I knew it was our best chance of finding Beta Shawn. I personally wanted to have a talk with him to let him know that Willow was my mate and that I would kill him if he tried to take her from me again and I knew Alpha Hunter would give me that opportunity to tell him. As our SUV pulled up to the house Luna Rayne stood on the front porch with an older woman who I assumed was Damon’s aunt. But what I didn’t expect was about ten male wolves standing around the cabin. When I got out of the vehicle, I began to recognize some of them as my own men and wondered why they were here. One of the men in particular stood out to me and I walked over to him and asked, “Jared, why a
