We had finally stopped at the end of the road and I jumped out of the car before it had fully stopped and started searching around as fast as I could until I spotted the maple tree queen Lanna had told us about in the distance, so running as fast as I could transforming mid-run, I sniffed the tree picking up the tracker and Magmas scent around the tree and then Jessys scent against the bark of the tree as if she had been sitting against it
"mom, dad over here"
my parents both rushed over to me with the others following behind,
Antony had his arm around Dawn who was looking really pale
"We need to watch out for bear traps" Dawn whispered
"baby?" Antony asked holding her tighter
"the tracker, he uses bear traps, its how I got injured when we first met"
I get up on my hind legs and place my front paws on her shoulders then I shove my nose into her cheek making her laugh
"error dude get off my girl" Antony whines then turns
We had been trekking through the trees for hours now following the scent of the tracker but we didn't seem to be getting anywhere, the tracker's scent seemed to be never-ending, I was starting to get agitated again and Colt was whining in my head but I didn't have any words of comfort for him, we were all sweating, tired and aching but nobody even suggested stopping because that just wasn't an option. Dawn was right about the bear traps, there was so many that a few of them were only missed by inches so we had to make sure to tread carefully, but still, we pushed on, nobody wanted to give up but we could all feel we weren't getting anywhere, dad kept trying to be optimistic "come on guys not long now" then a little while later "just up ahead guys" and then "soon be there" but we could all feel it was pointless, we were getting nowhere. We saw a gap in the trees and for the first time in hours you could see the hop
While everyone was getting as much rest as they could in the cars, I was restless so sitting on the hood of one of the cars I mind linked with my beautiful mate "Jessy beautiful baby, can you talk?" "Scott, are you ok?" "yes I'm fine, what about you?" "I'm ok" "the tracker, he hasn't...?" "I'm fine Scott, I haven't seen him since this morning, he fed me then he was gone, I was listening, he left the cabin and only came back a little while ago. Scott where are you? I'm scared" "shhhhhh, its ok beautiful, I'm coming for you, I'm close but the tracker seems to be leading us on a merry dance, as soon as everyone's rested we are on our way, it won't be long now baby" "Jewels sad, she won't even talk to me she just pines all the time, she wants Colt" Colt started yipping causing me to chuckle "Im coming Jewel, I'm coming" Colt tapped "Jessy honey, Colt wants Jewel to know he's coming, we are coming, I'
Jessys p.o.v. After speaking to Scott, Jewel seemed to perk up a bit "Mate is coming?" "yes Jewel, they will be here soon, we should try to rest too, we will need our strength for when we get out of here" "ok" I try to get comfortable as best I can chained to the bedpost and I have to be careful how I move because the silver keeps burning my skin and sitting on this hard floor constantly is giving me a numb bum, but eventually after, such shuffling around I finally get comfy-ish position and start dozing fitfully. "I wake up several times but soon drift back off to sleep, I dream about Scott, I dream of our wolves chasing each other and racing through the trees, of us just being free, of him loving me and me loving him just the same. I wake with a jolt and feel the emptiness within my chest, I prey Scott gets here soon, I feel weak without him. All of
Scotts p.o.v. We are running through the forest in wolf form, we started out early hoping to find the cabin as soon as we could, I was feeling optimistic as soon as we set off but at some point, I started to feel fear, I couldn't pinpoint what was making me feel this way but Colt was sensing it had something to do with Jessy, so I pushed on as hard as I could until a sharp pain split my face causing me to yelp, I tried to ignore it but another one soon followed and then another and another until I was on all fours withering in pain, pain I felt shooting all through my body, "Scott, son?" "Dad" "Talk to me son" "It feels as though I'm being beaten" Everyone is looking at me with concern, mom is beside my head brushing my hair back and dad is kneeling beside me with a concerned look on his face, slowly he looks at mom then orders me to change back into human for
We watch the cabin through the trees, we can't see any movement but we can smell the strong odour of the tracker and I can smell the scent of my beautiful mate, I'm finding it hard to control Colt, he's angry, he wants to get his mate, we need to get in there "Scott, calm down, we need to wait, we don't know where the tracker is, if we go into soo he may hurt Jessy" my dad could obviously sense my emotions, mom comes forward "Scott, as soon as we know the trackers in there we need to draw him out, if we can get him outside away from Jessy, we can both use our gifts, wind I suggest we use wind" "yes," dad says "use wind to pull him into the open, away from the cabin, then trap him within the wind "I need to get in there now" "No, we have to wait" "but Jessy" "no Scott, we wait" So we waited, waited for what felt like hours, and waited and watched until I could take no more. I jumped up with the plan of ju
"Stop" I hear my fathers voice but I feel a craze inside of me and ripping this piece of shit to shreds just doesn't seem enough until... "Jessy needs you" Just the word Jessy was enough to pull me out of my haze, I transform back into a man and put on the shorts mom is holding for me, when I look around everyone is watching me but I don't care I need to see Jessy so I run into the cabin where it's silent "Jessy" I call but get no reply, Im standing in a dank living room come kitchen with two doors leading off, there's blood on the floor outside one of the rooms so decide to try that room first. upon opening the door I'm horrified at what I see, there on the floor is my beautiful mate, chained to the bed with blood covering every inch of her. Im rooted to the spot, Jessys not moving and I can't tell if shes breathing or not, my mom comes in behind me and gasps before pushing me aside and running to her, she drops to her k
The car ride home was tense, I kept Jessy on my lap holding on to her tightly, I wiped as much blood from her as I could, I felt anger at each fresh cut or bruise I came across, Dad felt the waves of emotions coming off of me and put his foot down harder "Is she ok?" mom asked turning in the front seat to look at me "Shes fine for now" I turn to look at Logan who was beside me looking out of the window with a pale face causing me concern "Hey mate," I say touching his knee to get his attention, turning he looks at me but doesn't say anything "Are you ok? you don't look well" "Im errr I'm fine, is she gonna be ok?" he says nodding to Jessy with a single tear running down his cheek "She's going to be fine," mom says trying to comfort us both "She-she, I didn't think it would be this bad, Jessy seemed so strong" Smiling I said "She is strong she's a fighter, she is going to get thr
All was quiet at the pack border, not a good sign when there are always patrols, "Dad, stop here," I say to Dad who presses his foot down on the brakes "Scott?" he asks "If rogues are still about, I need to make sure Jessy's safe" "But you are needed," mom says pulling at my heartstrings, "It's ok Scott," Logan says "I'll take Jessy to the pool house and keep her safe" A tap on the window gets our attention, we all turn to see Antony and Bella who have clearly been eavesdropping "Take Dawn too and James is going with you too, to help keep the girls safe" Antony says not even pretending he didn't hear what we were talking about, Logan nods and gets out of the car and comes round to my door to get Jessy whos still unconscious on my chest "Wait, I think Bella should stay with the girls," James says "Nice try buster, but I'm going with them" Bella snidely says pointing her thumb at me and Anton

Jessys p.o.v. Sitting in the family room everyone was huddled around the tv, Beth and Luke were holding onto each other and I was sitting in Scotts lap, Dawn was on the floor beside Antony whilst most of the others from the pack just mingled around but one thing was certain, every one of us was worried, there had been many reports of rogues coming out into the open but the story on the news was proof enough that the rogues were getting too much, "But why?" asked a shocked Antony "Because they are dirty dogs" "shut up" I snap at my giggling twins Luke clears his throat "It's unheard of, why are they coming out into the open?" "I'm more concerned that they are now setting off bombs in the middle of London," Scott says stressfully "What do we do?" Beth then asks nobody in particular "Im not sure what we can do baby" Luke answers not taking h
Scotts p.o.v. I had called a family meeting but was now worrying that it may be a bit much for Jessy but she kept insisting she was fine so instead of driving to the pool house I drove up to my family home. getting out of the car I take Jessys hand "Are you ready for this?" I ask with concern but Jessy just laughs "The question is are you?, I can plead exhaustion if I want to get out, you well your stuck hahaha" "Nice so your gonna desert me if they get overbearing?" "Yep". Walking through the front door we see everyone waiting for us with concern in their eyes. Mom and dad were at the front with pops, Antony, Dawn, Bella, James and Logan were standing to the side, "Don't worry guys everything fine" I said because it looked as though Mom was going to have a heart attack any second, nobody said anything so I pulled Jessy in front
Jessys p.o.v. I feel warm and comfortable, I slowly open my eyes expecting to be in the pool house, instead, I'm in a room with pale yellow walls, I let my head flop to the side to see Scott on a chair beside me with his head resting near my hand asleep, I slowly raise my hand and run it through his hair, at the contact he startles awake "Beautiful, you're awake" "How long have I been here?" "A few hours, the doctor should be back with your blood test results soon" "Can I have some water?" Scotts helping me to take gentle sips of water when the door opens and Doctor Philips comes in pushing a machine "Ahhh you awake," he says stopping when he sees me, Scott stands up straight "Is is everything ok?" he asks with a stutter in his voice, Doctor Philips comes and stans at the bottom of my bed and looks at me "Well, I've
Scotts p.o.v. I burst into the classroom and there on the floor surrounded by the teacher, Logan and several students is my beautiful mate, I push my way through but as I get to the front the teacher tries to push me back but the feral growl that rips from me is enough to make him quickly move aside, I look at Logan as I bend down to her, with fear in his eyes Logan says "She came over funny saying she needed air" I look down at Jessy, she must have sensed me because she slowly opens her eyes "Scott?" "Yes beautiful, don't worry I'm getting you to a doctor" "Im fine, I just need" "No, you're going and that's that" I snap before looking up at Logan "Get the car" I say handing him my keys, as he runs out the door I quickly mind link the doctor telling him I'm on my way before scooping Jessy up in my arms. Logan drove w
Scotts p.o.v. I didn't like leaving Jessy, she was looking paler and paler every time I looked at her but she was being stubborn and insisting she was ok, Im just glad Logans with her but whether she likes it or not the pack doctor is going to take a look at her after school, "Scott, whatever you're daydreaming about doesn't belong in my class, now tell me what was I talking about?" Looking up at Mrs Kelson I realize I haven't heard a word of what she was talking about and it obviously hasn't gone unnoticed as Mrs Kelson is looking at me along with the rest of the class, Just as I'm about to apologise Logan starts yelling in my head making my heart drop "Scott, Scott come quick Jessy, Its Jessy" The colour drains from my face, I jump to my feet "Sit down, young man" "GRRRRRRRRRRRR" The growl that rips from me has her staggering backwards, I don
Jessys p.o.v. I should be worried about school but I feel rough as hell, I feel so tired all the time but I don't want to worry Scott so I try to act as normal as I can around him. School seems to be better so far, Darla seems to have lost her popularity status so shes kept her head down and stayed out of our way, I'm struggling with my classes, not because I can't do the work but because I feel so tired. At lunch, I sit down and everyone looks at me "you ok?" Dawn is the first to ask with concern in her voice "Yeah, just tired, ill be fine" "maybe I should take you home" Scott says feeling my forehead "No no, ill be fine it's only two classes left anyway". Nobody says anything after that but I keep getting the odd glance but I just ignore everyone and slowly force myself to eat my sandwich. As we all get up to go to our c
Scotts p.o.v. The next few weeks have been busy, Jessy was basically recovered, she spent most of her time with Dawn because I was busy with dad trying to get information from the rogues that attacked us, most of them didn't know much and were just normal wolves that had been pulled from there homes to fight for a cause with the promise of a better life, If we felt that they were genuine we would let them go with the rule that they were not to set foot on our territory again or they would be killed on sight, others had a bit of information but not much as all we could really find out was that Jonas had a brother and wanted revenge for his death, the same three words were repeated again and again "WAR IS COMING" The trouble was none of us knew when, so all we had was queenLannas prediction to go on so we upped the patrols just in case and to be extra safe we sent groups out to the surrounding
Scotts p.o.v. When we got back to the pool house we could hear laughter so following the noise we went to see what was going on and there piled around the t.v was my beautiful mate with the others playing Mario Cart on the Wii, they hadn't spotted us so we just watched them for a while until Bella couldn't just watch anymore so she went and hopped into James lap, Jessy turned to look at me and at that moment I knew I was the luckiest man on the planet "Hey beautiful" The blush that tinted her cheeks made my heart double in size and smelling her scent nearly tipped me and Colt over the edge so I had no choice but to go to the kitchen for a glass of water to calm myself down. After another hour or so of everyone playing the Wii, Antony turned to Dawn "Come on it's time we were going" Dawn nodded her head and got to her feet "Yeah we should go too," B
