Miranda POV “We need to go back there,” I say quickly as Sarah and Lucas look at their dead mother’s body. I know they are overwhelmed but now I have an idea where they may be holding Daniel. “We need to move quickly before he moves Daniel,” I add as Sarah whips her head around to look at me, “What do you mean?” she asks stepping closer to me. “He will have felt their bond break; we need to move quickly,” I say again trying to get them all rallied around so we can teleport out and back to the clearing where Penelope said Daniel was. He was right under our noses. What did that mean? It was a riddle. “Sarah, when we get there use your powers to do a reveal spell,” I say to her. “What am I trying to reveal?” she asks as everyone comes closer to both Sarah and me. Before we take hands, I say to her, “A door, an entrance something that will take us to where an underground bunker may be.”. She looks at me in surprise, “Of course,”
The Beta's Mate Chapter 99
Sarah POV I knew everyone was safe from the warlock’s reach so I could focus a hundred percent of my attention on destroying him. From the corner of my eye, I saw that Daniel has passed out from his injuries. The poor man probably felt relief that help was so close to him. Or he simply could not take anymore. I knew everyone was counting on me to destroy this warlock … and that is what I intended to do. I had two advantages in this fight. I was powerful, and I had my wolf, Abby, to help me. As I leapt across the space, meeting the warlock in mid-air, I released my claws trying to grab the warlock’s throat. I managed to claw him deeply but not before he quickly mended the slices with his own abilities. He could not heal, but he could throw up a spell quickly to prevent a lot of blood loss. He whips himself around and stares at me. “So, you want to play dirty, Sarah?” he says as he stalks towards me. I throw lightning bolts his way buying

Sarah POV Pain was racing through my entire body. I could feel the claw like pain where the warlock had me bound. It was like tentacles of barbwire were tearing through my flesh. There was no blood, but the feelings were intense. I could hear Jack pleading with me to fight. I was desperately trying to hold on, but the pain was wreaking havoc with my mind. I needed to hold on just a few minutes more. I needed to have the warlock at his prime. Ready to attack me with all that he has. The more Jack yells the more intense the pain becomes. His distracting the warlock is intensifying the warlock’s anger. This is what I need to get him to the point of unleashing his worst. I feel tears rolling down my cheeks. The pain continues to increase. Just as I move, the warlock catches me out of the corner of his eye. I realize I have one chance to get this right or everyone will die. As I see the warlock’s eyes shift, I can see he tosses his arms i

Jack POV I scream “No!” as I hear the heart monitor flatline. I cannot lose Sarah. Not now. She fought so hard. She does not deserve to die. “Do something Jenna!” I yell. “I am trying Jack. If you cannot stay calm, then leave!” she says tersely as she continues to focus on Sarah. The Pack doctor waits for the crash cart. As it comes in, he prepares to bring Sarah back to me. He zaps her chest. We all wait with holding our breaths. Nothing. Jenna grabs a needle and stabs it into Sarah’s chest. Again, we wait and again there is nothing. Jenna starts doing chest compressions as the doctor prepares the machine once again. Everyone stands back as the doctor zaps Sarah’s chest. We pause. And finally hear a faint blip. “It is weak, but we have her back. Luna, if there is anything you can do, we could use the help,” the Pack doctor says as he turns away from Sarah. It was a weak pulse. It was not strong as it had been. Jen
The Beta's Mate Chapter 102
Jack’s POV It has been hours since they took Sarah away. I felt our bond waiver a few times and at least I knew she was continuing to fight to live. Fight to survive. It was not right. Not right that she was in this situation after fighting and destroying the warlock. The waves of fear roll over me repeatedly as I continue to relive the moments watching her fight on her own. I did not know if I would ever forgive Miranda for what she did. My logical mind knew that only Sarah had the ability to fight the warlock. But my heart almost broke multiple times watching the scene unfold before my eyes. Knowing you were useless in helping your mate was a horrible feeling. And here I was once again feeling useless as I waited for the doctors to try and save Sarah. I heard the door open and before I could say anything Lucas spoke softly to me. “She is strong, she will get through this,” he says. If anyone understood the anger I felt, it was him. W

Josie POV Sam and I had gone back to our room in the Pack house after the first day of waiting. Jack and Lucas would not leave so we brought clothes and food for them. We were into day three of waiting for some type of movement from either Sarah or Daniel. Nothing had happened so far. Sarah was not shocking that it was taking her time to heal; however, Daniel had the medical staff perplexed. For some reason he was simply not waking up. He had no obvious physical ailments. His wounds from his torture had almost healed completely. Without his wolf helping it was taking a bit longer, but they were progressing as you would expect of a human. Lucas was frustrated and was talking about taking Daniel back to the Harvest Moon Pack. He wanted his own Pack doctors to look him over. But Adam had convinced Lucas to give Jenna one more chance to scan his body before they leave. Jenna was convinced it was something else at play, but she could not find
The Beta's Mate Chapter 104
Daniel POV I could hear everyone around me. Most importantly I heard everything Lucas has said to me. I could not understand why I was not able to wake up and communicate with Lucas. I wanted to hold him and assure him I was not angry with him. None of this was his fault. This – whatever it was – was bigger than all of us. It was only this morning that I had become aware that I was being injected with something. Emma had spoken to me this morning while she injected me with a fast-acting drug that continued to keep me in limbo. The idea was to continue injecting me until it would seem like I was dead and then the Council could take my body and bring me back to life to continue serving the Council. I had felt such anger and despair as I realized I had no way to communicate what was happening to Lucas. We were so close to being together that I could not believe this was happening. I felt rage surround me, yet I could not express it. I had n

Sarah POV The Pack doctor rushed into my room and checked my vitals. I simply sat and stared at Jack. Stared into his eyes. “Well Sarah, it looks like you are back,” the Pack doctor says as I simply turn and smile at him. I still had a really dry throat but was drinking water slowly so as not to upset my stomach. Jack simply held onto my hand, holding it to his lips waiting impatiently for the Pack doctor to leave. As soon as he did, Jack was in the bed with me holding me tightly in his arms. Nobody else had come yet, “I have not told them you are awake yet. I want a few minutes with you to myself,” he says. I smile and snuggle in closer. I am still tired, but finally awake. “When can I leave?” I whisper. Jack smiles at me, “As soon as the doc gives the go ahead, I am breaking you out of here,” he promises me. ‘I should be able to go home today, nothing left for me to do but recuperate,” I remind him as he simply holds me tighter.

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.
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

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
