Jessie was experiencing an overwhelming surge of feelings that she was unable to articulate. Jessie didn't know how much longer she could, take carrying that about in her chest, which had been building up for a while. She understood that resisting Caiden's decision would be a waste of time, so she remained quiet in the light of his choice.She made the inconceivable declaration, "I'm coming with you, Caiden, to find the kids."He gave her a cold look and said, "I don't recall asking for your help, and Nate will be coming with me, anyway."With despair consuming her heart, she murmured, "Caiden, you cannot treat me in this way. I can't be left out of your life in this manner."His voice became calmer, "I'm not leaving you out of anything. I'm only trying to keep you safe."She cried, "Then stop searching for those bastards," with tears rolling down her cheeks. "Allow Kamara to search for her kids alone."Caiden glared at her. "Don't you dare call my kids bastard, Jessie. They're not ju
"Jessie has her own mission, so she can't take the lead."However, that was untrue, and it made Jessie feel even more depressed."So Enzo ought to take command," said someone else."This isn't a vote to determine the leader of the pack," Caiden stated solemnly. "I have made up my mind. Lisa will lead the pack till I return.As Caiden concluded his statement, muttering became more intense. The majority supported Lisa's leadership, but a few made gestures and conjectures among the group, causing division that Caiden could never have predicted.When things appeared to be more under control the following day, he bid Jessie and Lisa farewell and went to the police station to meet Nate and give Bruno explicit instructions.It was now Caiden's turn to look for his missing kids.*******Louis and KamaraI felt sick when I got out of the cabin. My stomach hurt, and it turned over so much that I felt queasy and puked. I stood that way for a few hours as Louis built a fire to keep us warm on thi
He said, lowering the knife and taking a step back, "Where the fuck is she? There's been a change of plans.""Why does it seem to me that you want Kamara harm?" Louis went up to him. In comparison to Enzo, he was bigger and seemed to be stronger.He held the knife tightly, "Louis, avoid getting involved in things that aren't your business. There are no plans anymore. Forget about Caiden and those stupid kids, and deliver Kamara over to me so I may bring about the terrible ending she deserves.Louis's eyes turned bright yellow from dark brown. His wolf had awakened and was prepared to combat Enzo.Louis said, his fists clenched, "You're going to have to go through me if you want her.""So prepare to be smashed." He growled.Startled awake, Kamara heard noises coming from the jungle. The sound of Louis's shout reverberated through the forest. Fearfully, she stood up and bolted for the direction of the sound. When she spotted Louis struggling with a familiar wolf, her feet froze. Louis y
It was a precarious position for Bruno. There was a lot of sweat on him. His face was dripping with little drops of sweat.He stuttered, "I told my men not to pursue Louis because I decided it was too late to perform a search."Caiden spoke loudly in the station, growling, "I came to the station to issue that command, but you weren't here. The pack's choices have to go through me first. Since Louis was a prisoner, I felt you were smart enough to know that he should receive extra attention and security. It was best for you to pursue him."Bruno lowered his head. He was unable to look directly at Caiden.I apologize, sir."This will be your last job for the remainder of your life if I return and this city isn't in order and you haven't told Lisa of all your decisions." Bruno shrank back in terror as Caiden's stiff form drew near him. "Don't fail me again, Bruno," Caiden said. "I won't be so merciful."This was, without a doubt, the biggest humiliation Bruno had ever received. He was fil
With a quick glance around her, Kamara saw a secret cave in the woods. Even if it was small, she and Louis would feel secure there. She left a trail of blood as she pulled his unconscious body across the woodland. After putting Louis in the cave, she went back and hid her footprints. In an effort to conceal the spot, she also gathered dry branches and leaves. She wanted to hide the smell of blood by covering Louis's body with dry leaves.The hours passed while Kamara gripped her legs and tried to interpret the sounds of the forest. Enzo was nowhere to be seen. Her heart softened as she saw that Louis was getting better and his wounds were healing. At last, she relaxed next to him and took a nap.There was no sign of Louis when she woke up. She turned around, but all she saw next to her was a bloodstain and some leaves. She could hardly see in the dark as the sky was getting darker. Kamara was engulfed in the extreme cold of the night, and her whole body shook. She was terrified to c
Caiden failed to consider the repercussions. He approached them, and he stepped in front of Louis when he abruptly got to his feet.He said sarcastically, "You didn't take long to get here."However, Caiden's gaze was riveted on Kamara, as if he wanted to seize her and drag her away immediately. Kamara recoiled as she waited for Louis to give her another order to escape, but he didn't."Louis, get out of my way," Caiden yelled."What happens if I decide not to?" Their gazes locked at that instant.He was met with a smile from Caiden that only those familiar with the alpha could truly comprehend. Caiden took just a single swing to bring Louis to the ground, where he passed out. Upon observing that, Kamara tried to flee, but Caiden's hands seized her and forcefully carried her over his shoulders.Enzo stayed out of sight behind a tree, watching intently as alpha Caiden saved his prey.Going forward, he had to be quicker.Nate attempted to soothe Kamara, but she yelled, "Let me go right
Kamara chuckled. She laughed at the whole thing for the first time. Where had Nate come up with that crazy idea? She didn't matter to Caiden."You also need to be aware that I was rejected by the Alpha and given to Enzo to be kicked out of the pack."As he arranged the little woods and was ready to start the fire, he said, "I know, but I'm sure he deeply regrets that."Kamara chuckled once more."Nate, you have a great sense of humor," she said, clearly not taking anything he said seriously, "but please don't let Caiden hear you say these ridiculous things. He'll probably just kill you."She tried to frighten him, but it was ineffective. Seeing that Kamara was expressing those things because she was too hurt by the alpha, Nate simply shook his head. It was clear to him that this wasn't about the quads going away, he sensed a deep connection between the two of them.When Caiden came over and sat in between them, there was silence."Pretending is pointless." Caiden said, "I overheard yo
"How did you find out he was wounded?" She questioned without thinking.He gestured to the trash and said, "There's a trail of blood from the other room to this place, and there are bandages with human blood in it."When Kamara opened the room and saw that one of her children's shirts was torn, she was shocked."You are sure it's human blood? With her heart pounding wildly in her chest, she questioned."Certainly!"She felt her heart soften, but Caiden's words also made her wary."How could this man have been injured in the children's room?"He continued, "Most likely, the quads are discovering their wolf nature," which made Kamara's heart race once more. "The monster within us emerges to save us when they're under pressure."Oh no! This couldn't be happening. Kamara almost broke down. Why hadn't she considered this earlier? With a heavy heart, she departed the cottage, regretting not having prepared her kids for that particular moment. It never occurred to Kamara that she would have
