Josie POV

As I land in front of them, I swipe at the closest man and my claws rip into his side. His intestines start to spill out of his body. He quickly shifts but not fast enough to stop his imminent death. I turn slowly towards the other man as he simply stands there. “I want to take you in peacefully, Josie,” he reiterates as we stand off looking at one another.

Not wanting to waste time, I leap at him as he tosses me off him still not shifting. I go again to attack him, and he punches me in the chest cracking a bone. I realize quickly I am going to exhaust myself before he even attempts to shift. My thoughts are erratic as my only goal is to get to Sam.

Refocusing I step back, and we stare at one another. I consider taking another leap, but I decide against it. He is positioned to receive my next attack. He still has not shifted and I need him to shift to allow Alexis, my wolf, to take over and fight to get us free. Looking behind hi

    Jack POV Within the hospital there was chaos. Doctors were yelling for nurses to come help with patients – specifically Adam and Sam. They were still trying to save Adam from the poison coursing through his veins. And Sam they were trying to stop the bleeding. His wolf, Chance, was doing what he could to help but these wounds had happened in Sam’s human form and that would require more doctor intervention. I am pacing between rooms when I see Josie running around the corner. I stop her grabbing her up in my arms, “He is still alive, Jack. I have not felt the bond break,” Josie says repeatedly. “They are working on him Josie. Just sit here,” I say pointing to a chair in the hall. “No, I want to be with him,” she says shakily as she tries to get around me. “You will just get in the way. Sit your ass down and do what you are told, for once!” I yell at her. I had not intended to be so harsh, but I was feeling the pressure of both the alpha and

    Sam POV I am floating in what feels like a dream. A terrifying dream where the Council manages to get Josie, Jenna and Sarah. I can feel the despair around me from Adam, Jack and myself. I look down and see that I am tied to a chair and cannot move. My mate is being beaten in front of me because she continues to refuse to do as they tell her. “Just do it, Josie!” I yell but she cannot hear me. She continues to fight. Suddenly I feel tingles on my arm, “Sam,” I hear someone calling my name. I look around. Is this a joke? To somehow distract me from trying to help my mate. I can feel it more closely now and the tingles are on my head and lips. “Josie?” I whisper through dry lips. “It is me, baby,” Josie replies. I try to open my eyes, but I cannot do so. I try to lift my hand but I cannot move. Am I tied down? What happened? Why can I not remember? I slip back into a deep sleep as I try to remember what brought me here. The dream pic

    Josie POV I was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when Sam woke up. It has been two days since he woke, and I still cannot believe all that has happened in the past couple of days. Adam is still in a coma, but it is believed he will come out of it soon. It is likely that his body was exhausted and needed the additional rest after fighting his way back. He has had no more heart episodes, although they are worried about long term impacts. For now, everyone is just waiting for their Alpha to wake up. I smile as I feel Sam’s arms wrap around my waist, “Good morning little pup,” he murmurs as his hands hold my still flat tummy. “I am not sure he can hear you yet,” I chuckle. “We do not know that, and I want to be sure he knows my voice when he comes into this world,” Sam says indignantly. I put my hands over his, and simply bask in the glory of being held by my mate. “What are your plans this morning?” Sam asks as he releases me to turn me

    Jenna POV I gasp as Adam’s eyes open wide. He simply stares at the ceiling as if not believing he is awake. I stand and move closer to Adam touching his face. He slowly turns to me, and I see tears in his eyes. “Am I really awake?” he asks tentatively. As if he has had this dream multiple times already. I can feel tears rolling down my cheeks. Nodding, I move forward and kiss Adam’s lips. He lifts his hand pushing the hair out of my face. “Red, I thought I would never see you again,” he whispers. I move to get him a glass of water, allowing him to take a couple sips before removing the glass. “I was terrified,” I reply to him as I move closer to wrap my arms awkwardly around his body. He tries to pull me up beside him. “Just wait babe, I need to get the doctor to unhook you,” I say to him. “Do not call anyone in yet. I just want to spend my time with you, Jenna,” Adam says as he simply stares at me. “How do you feel?” I ask.

    Josie POV “I always prefer the hard way,” the cocky bastard replies. “Good enough,” I reply. “What was your mission?” I ask. The man struggles but smiles as he defies my request. He does not realize I had not put a push behind my question. “I said what was your mission when you came here a week ago?” I demand. I see sweat forming on the man’s forehead as he struggles to defy my demand. “We were here for you,” he spits out. “Why?” I ask although I have heard the answer before. “You hold the power; you are the key,” he replies angrily. His face is already red with frustration. “Why take Jenna then?” I ask. He smirks at me, “Because we know you. You would come running and then we would have the healer and the Rogue Queen,” he says with a laugh. “You are so obvious. You are not a team player; you always go off or try to go off on your own. It would only be a matter of time before you would try to trade yourself or simply come to get her and

    Sam POV We have been strategizing for hours and we continue to come to the same conclusion. All roads leading to the same result. Daniel. Using Daniel to gain access to the leader. But how we would access Daniel is really proving to be our bigger challenge. Looking at everyone around the table, “We need to bring Lucas in on this,” I suggest as I watch Josie yawn for the third time in a row. Adam looked beat; Jenna was getting frustrated as the conversations continued around her. “Yes, we do. And we cannot simply talk about the plan on the phone. Call him and set up a meeting for a week from today,” Jenna says snippily. Adam looks tiredly at Jenna, “Red, you know we cannot wait that long,” he says as he looks at me. “See if Lucas can be here tomorrow,” Adam says as he slowly stands. I watch Adam and Jenna shuffle off to the door. “We will have some food brought up to you,” Josie says as they walk out the door. “Thank you,” Jenna replies as

    Josie POV “Who is the leader of this group?” I ask first. “I do not know,” Luna Ashley replies. “How can you not know?” I ask. “They keep erasing my memories,” Luna Ashley replies sounding tormented. “Why?” I ask. “They do not want me to remember who the leader is,” Ashley replies sounding frustrated. “Who erases your memories?” I ask curiously. “The witch; she has the power,” she replies. “Then why do they want me?” I ask confused. “You are the most powerful wolf, Josie. If they get you, they will be able to control all wolves,” she says almost whispering like she does not want anyone to know. Sam is standing beside me, but it is like she does not see him. She is tunnel-visioned on me. “You are so beautiful Josie. I wish things had been different for us,” she says as she bends over in pain once again. “Why?” I ask. “Because I always wanted to be your mom. You and Eric were my first pups,” she says with tears in her eyes. “

    Josie POV “How do you feel?” I ask Sarah while dropping off some paperwork the next morning. Alpha Lucas was coming for early afternoon, so we had time to get a few things done. Sighing, Sarah replies, “I feel fine. Like better than fine. I feel like I should be up and moving but Jenna says I need a couple more weeks.”. Giving Sarah a look of pity, “I feel for you. I am not sure I would handle it as well as you have been,” I reply. “Truth is I am not handling it well at all. I have been ripping Jack’s head off every chance I get. I would not be surprised if he asks the Moon Goddess for a new mate,” Sarah says as tears fill her eyes. I move over and wrap my arms around her shoulders, “Do not be silly. Jack understands that you are simply ready to be off bedrest. He loves you, silly woman,” I say to her. She smiles at me wiping away her tears. “I know but I feel terrible for how I have been treating him,” she replies. “Tell him.

    One Year Later …Sam POV As I look around, I see the most important people in my life surrounding me. I smile as I watch Dylan, our pup, try to stand with Josie holding his hands, protecting him from falling. I see Gracie, and Maryse, Jack and Sarah’s little girl, playing on the blanket in the grass. Their parents keeping a close eye on the girls. Miranda and Rick had joined us with their pups. Their four-year-old Brandon and their pup, Lexi were with them. It was not often that Miranda and Rick trusted to bring their children just anywhere, but we had all grown so close after what we went through almost a year ago our trust with each other had grown exponentially. Lexi was also on the blanket playing with the girls … as much as pups can play. They mostly roll around and slobber at this stage, I think with a chuckle. Daniel and Lucas had also joined us. Among all the couples, they struggled the most. Daniel had post-traumatic stress disorder from wha

    Sarah POV The entire hospital is complete chaos. So much is happening, so many injured warriors. I was grateful to the Moon Goddess every time someone came in and it was not Jack. I felt on edge as warriors kept being sent in. Some would return to the battle, but others lost their fight.Before I can move to comfort a lost warrior’s mate, my heart jumps in my throat as I see Colby run in with Jack. He was wounded. I scream as I see him passed out and not responding to my calls. As I turn to look to Jenna she starts to move forward until the next person to run in is Rick with Adam and Kate.“We have lost him twice on the way in, we need to get him to surgery now,” Kate demands as she runs to see which operating room is free. Jenna moves forward slowly to Adam trying to heal him of his ailments. “Jenna, we need to move now. There are too many to fix and he is going to bleed out if I do not get him into the operating room now,” Kate says to Jenna.Jenna looks at me,

    Sam POV As we take off out the front door of the Pack house, we agreed that Adam and Jack would go with Colby and Kate to the north and we would take Drake and Maddie with us to the south. Sarah was contacting Miranda to organize her witches. Before we hit the forest to shift, Miranda and Rick were beside us. We tore off clothes as we shifted. Paws kicking up the dirt as we raced to the borders wanting to reach our panicked warriors. They were outnumbered and were quickly being overpowered. Suddenly everything went quiet through the mind-links. We were stunned into pushing harder to get there to see what was happening. I reached out to Adam but quickly learned our mind-link abilities were broken. Slowing down I shift quickly as everyone slows around me. “Our mind-link channels are broken with the Pack. We need to proceed with caution,” I say before quickly shifting back into my wolf, Chance, and taking the lead to get us to the southern bor

    Daniel POV I was never so scared as I had been when I had been tortured. I knew I was not long for this world when they punctured my lung. When I saw Miranda, I was blown away. That this courageous woman would take a chance for a man she barely knew was beyond my comprehension. There was so very little I could do to thank her for being there at the right moment. I recognized Jenna but I did not recognize the other woman. As if understanding my confusion, she steps forward, “Hi, I am Kate from the Silver Crescent Pack,” she says as she introduces herself. “We are very pleased that you have woken up. It was a little touch and go there,” she adds. “I am sorry, did you say the Silver Crescent Pack?” Daniel asks. “Yes, I am the Luna and a doctor,” she replies wondering about my question. “I am sorry, I heard your Pack name mentioned at the Council. Most recently there was something about watching a girl more closely,” I share with them.

    Josie POV No matter what anyone said, I knew they were all putting themselves on the line for me. I was eternally grateful and eternally feeling guilty at the same time. I was learning this is what family did but having never experienced it before it was a foreign concept to me. And it was hard to accept the help that I knew they would force on me. It overwhelmed me in a good way. Looking around the conference room table, we had Colby, Kate, Sarah, Jack, Sam, Adam, Jenna, Miranda, Rick, and myself. Alpha Jared had rushed home to his Pack after the implied threat over Luna Lily and the children she was looking after. Lucas would not leave Daniel’s side – not that I had blamed him. And Alpha Thomas had errands to run in town so he would join us after. “We need to split up when they come. They have already indicated each border would be at risk,” Adam says to the group. “I want to propose that we all go to the first location. If they attack al

    Lucas POV I have been sitting by Daniel’s bed since they finished operating on him. I cannot bear to look at my mate without rage taking over my mind. Seeing the abuse Daniel withstood breaks me. I do not know how he survived but I will be forever grateful he had the strength to do so. I watch the consistent blip on the machine indicating he is alive. It has been one day since he came out of the operating room. One day I have had him by my side. I have held his hand. I have spoken with him even though he is still in a coma. I have not left his side. One day that has given the medical team a reason to breathe a semi-cautious sigh of relief. The longer his body kept going, the better chances he had of making a full recovery.His boss has stood by as well. So far nobody but me and the medical team have visited Daniel. That is the way I have wanted it. I needed to know he was safe. And as Colby had reminded us, we did not know who we could trust.

    Kate POV I had witnessed my share of injured warriors, but I have never seen a wolf survive this level of torture. There were so many things happening at once it was hard to keep up with them. Even with the Pack Hospital’s doctor, Jenna, and myself – it felt like we were fighting a losing battle. I could hear this man’s mate yelling in the hallway. It was a distraction we did not need. Jenna asked Adam through their mind-link to try and remove him. I understood how hard it was to leave your mate, but right now we needed to focus one hundred percent. As I heard the yelling fade away, I was able to focus more intently on what was happening in front of us. Daniel was crashing as Jenna jumped up trying to stem the blood flow. The gunshot wound was causing us the most worry at the moment. While the other injuries would have to be fixed, the gunshot wound, with the wolfsbane and silver, continued to ooze blood. I needed to get in there and remov

    Josie POV It was taking too long. We all knew it. Nobody was saying it, but we knew. She should have returned by now. It had been ten minutes since she had broken her connection with Sarah. Ten long minutes of Rick pacing, everyone watching their clocks. “She will come back. She promised,” Rick mutters. Before anyone could say anything there was this goddess awful sound of something falling. And then suddenly before our eyes was Miranda and Daniel. Both of them full of blood. Rick is the first to reach Miranda, “I am okay, Rick, I am okay,” she says as she passes out. This is normal, I remind myself. Whenever she uses her powers, she needs Rick to help bring her back. Jenna is there to try and reach for Miranda, wanting to check her head wound. From what I could tell it was something Jenna could easily mend as she brushed her hand over it, and it stopped bleeding. Wanting to do a thorough check of Miranda, Jenna murmurs to Rick, “Let’s

    Sarah POV I finally had an opportunity to help support this effort. I knew it was minimal but at least I could keep track of Miranda. I would feel when she would have to cut the attachment to me. Me sharing my powers allowed her to extend the use of hers so it would give her an extra ten minutes at best. Rick stands and starts to pace. I say nothing. Nobody offers any words of platitude. There is nothing that can be done or said to make this any better. Kate and Jenna are discussing strategies quietly for when Miranda arrives back. Strategies that include if she is compromised in any way. Jack moves towards me, but I shake my head no. Anything could break our connection and it was not going to be me being distracted. The longer I could hold the connection, the longer she would have support. We did not know what she would encounter when she arrived, but my added powers would ensure her success. I wish I could see what she was seeing. I wi
