Sarah POV I had been nervously waiting all morning for my time with Miranda. I wanted to share with her my encounter last evening. As well as start my training. I had been pacing for about ten minutes now, when Jack stood up from his desk and walked over to me. “Sweetheart, not that I mind seeing your sexy ass every time you turn around, but I am afraid you will wear a hole in the floor at the rate you are pacing,” Jack says to me. Looking at him with a red face, I nod, “I know, I just cannot stop myself,” I say to him as he pulls me over to sit on his lap. I feel tense at first, but then I start to relax. His hand is lightly tracing designs on my lower back and helping ease the tension that was building inside of me. “Now just breathe, Sarah. Miranda knows where to find you,” Jack assures me. “It is lunchtime. Why don’t we go and get an early lunch?” Jack suggests as we are sitting there. “That sounds like a good idea,” I reply standing

Miranda POV I could tell Sarah was starting to get tired, but I was in awe of her talent. “Just one more spell, Sarah and then we will break for the day,” I assure her. We had been at it for hours. I could not contain my excitement, now that her shield was down, she was unstoppable. She was working on smaller spells, but still quickly and more importantly accurately. It was clear someone had seen the power within her and wanted to contain it. But why? Why would someone do that to her at such a young age. Witches in her position often find themselves having mental breakdowns. The power builds within them, and they have no place to express that power and it almost combusts internally. That she has maintained her sanity is a tribute to her strength. Had she had her powers in place, she would have been able to better protect herself when she had been kidnapped. That was my goal. To help her establish quick and easy ways to protect herself

Josie POV I sat there listening to the conversations happening around me. I had not jumped into the conversation. I had noticed Sam had not either. I kept playing in my mind the man who visited Sarah last night. Something about his description was taunting me. It was not possible. He was dead. Gone. We had burned his body. “The man you are describing is my father,” I share with the group hurriedly. I cannot stop the words from forming and leaving my mouth. I saw Sam stand a little taller while everyone else simply stared. “Eric beat your father when he killed him. He could not be alive,” Jenna says with fear in her voice. It was no secret my father had been after her when he was alive. “I know. I was there when Eric killed him. I simply cannot understand how it could be him. What other explanation is there?” I ask everyone in the room looking at Sam. He looks at me like he is pained for me. “Maybe it is someone else? Did your fa

Sarah POV “Jack … Jack, are you alright?” I yell at him as I reach him, he is picking himself up off the ground. “What the hell was that?!?” Jack yells as he tries to see where the man went. “That was the man I saw last night,” I murmur to Jack as I look back where the warlock had stood. I could instantly recognize his powers today when he tossed Jack so freely into the wall. He could recognize my powers coming to life as well. “I am sorry,” Jack says to me. “Sorry for what?” I ask confused. “I did not protect you,” Jack says as he is embarrassed. “Jack, that was a powerful warlock. Nobody could have protected themselves,” I reply to him. “It is a demonstration of how strong you are to have survived the attack,” I say to him as I take his hand. I did not want him to be upset with himself. “I was able to put up a quick barrier between the warlock and myself,” I share with Jack. “Oh?” he asks. “Yes, it held him back. Had I known you we
The Beta's Mate Chapter 56
Jack POV Kissing Sarah was like a dream. I could not believe I had this amazing woman in my arms. That she had accepted me and wanted to become my mate. Our tongues slid over one another’s tasting and teasing. My hands slid to Sarah’s waist and slowly slid under her shirt feeling her soft skin. I felt her tremble under my touch. I released her mouth moving down to kiss along her jaw and nibble on her ear. She laughed as I tickled her before moving down her neck and latching onto where I would leave my mark. I felt her body move in closer to mine as she moaned her pleasure. Releasing that spot, I move back up and kiss the tip of Sarah’s nose. I ease back, “Sweetheart, are you sure about this? I do not want you to feel rushed because of what is going on,” I say to her. It will kill me if she changes her mind, but I need to know this is what she wants for the right reasons. “Once we are mated, I will never let you go,” I add in a husky voi

Sam POV Spending the night just holding Josie in my arms was incredible. I did not know what the future held but I would fight for having her in my arms every night. When we woke, she was shy, but I simply held her longer and she fell back asleep. Knowing I had an early morning with Miranda, I left her shortly after she fell back asleep sad to leave her. I was walking out of Josie’s room when I saw Jack sneaking out of his room. We looked at one another and smiled. “Who would have thought we would be sneaking out of rooms together?” I teased him. “I am not sneaking out, I am going to get food for my Queen,” Jack says excitedly. I happen to notice he is sporting a new mark this morning. I feel a twinge of jealousy but quickly let it go. I was happy for Jack and Sarah. “So, you both decided to take the plunge?” I ask as we walk down the steps together. “Sure did,” Jack replies smugly. “I think I am the luckiest guy alive, Sam,” Jack adds

Sam POV Pulling my chair around my desk again, I wait for Miranda and Sarah to determine where they wanted to sit. Rick took the couch toward the door of my office. Miranda and Sarah sat in the chairs in front of me. I took my seat feeling a little anxious at how things would go today. Yesterday had been rough, I did not know what to expect today. Miranda put her hand on my knee, “Just relax Sam. Today will be a bit more challenging as we get further into the webs of the spell,” she says to me. “Great,” I say with less humour than I had intended to share. Clearing her throat, Sarah says, “Thank you for letting me sit in on this, Sam.”. “No problem, Sarah; I am being a little selfish. I am counting on you learning fast so you can help protect the Pack and yourself,” I say with a chuckle. She smiles understanding that part of my reply is shrouded in my nerves. “Alright, Sarah you need to take a few deep breaths. You will not be able to s

Josie POV Startled I pulled back only to feel instant regret. I did not want to cause Sam more pain, but I slowly realize he is smiling at me. And he did not grab his head in agony as he did last time. I slowly smile back at him; suddenly hyper aware we have an audience. Breaking my stare with Sam, I look around the room at everyone with a glare. Miranda is smiling. Rick is more pensive of the situation. Jack and Sarah are smiling like idiots. I shake my head as I consider what this could mean. I knew I had to still have the spell removed from me or whatever was going on, but did this mean we had a chance? I look back at Sam who is still smiling at me as he nods, “Yes, we might have a chance.”. I was embarrassed, I had not realized I had said the last part out loud. Standing, I realized I need air. I had never been given a chance before – I felt like I was starting to hyperventilate. “I need to go,” I say to everyone who looked at me c

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,
The Beta's Mate Chapter 154
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.
The Beta's Mate Chapter 152
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.
The Beta's Mate Chapter 150
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
The Beta's Mate Chapter 149
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
The Beta's Mate Chapter 148
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
