All Chapters of The Beta's Mate: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Josie POV This guy was pissing me off. Clearly, he was an arrogant prick who knew more than he was letting on. My skin crawled when he hugged Sarah. If he knew she was a witch, he could have been trying to determine what type of barrier she might have put up. Fortunately, we all had protection spells, but we could not be too careful. Walking up the stairs closely beside Beta Steve, I could not wait to get him alone. “Where is everyone?” Sarah asks the Beta. “They are still here, just where they should be. In their homes or working,” he snarls at Sarah. He was bound by her powers now; unable to communicate with anyone, and he was pissed. “What about the children?” Jack asks. “They are in a special daycare. Their parents do as their told and their children remain safe,” Beta Steve smirks. “And if they do not?” Jack asks. “Let us just say they get a reminder, and then the pup suffers if the parents do not do as is expected,” Steve smirks

Sam POV I watched Josie take over as soon as we arrived at the Harvest Moon Pack, and I could not be prouder. She was in her element, and I recognized she was strong in her own her right. I knew it before but really saw and felt it when she took over as the Rogue Queen. I knew she did not want to be the Rogue Queen; however, I could not help but wonder if our relationship would be enough for her. We had finished letting the Harvest Moon Pack members free. We had gathered intel to share with the Werewolf’s Council. The Werewolf’s Council was the regulator for our kind. When things went south and they could not be resolved at the local level, they inevitably made their way to the Werewolf’s Council. We were building the case against Lana, Tim, and whomever was this wizard. We knew taking down the wizard would be difficult as they fell under the Wiccan Council; however, we were going to ask Miranda how best to proceed in that case. Right now,

Josie POV “Come with me, Josie,” Tim says. “Where are the children?” I ask him. “We will return the children once I have you safely in my arms,” he replies. My skin crawls thinking about being in his arms. “I do not believe you; let Sam go, return the children and I will go with you,” I reply to him. Sam continues to fight against the rogue holding him down. It is hardly a fair fight. Two rogues are holding Sam down while the other has him in a death grip. Sarah is standing beside me, as I see her raise her hands. Leaves start swirling around all of us similar to a mini tornado. Many are trying to back away from the phenomenon but there is a barrier stopping them from leaving the circle. The rogues holding Jack back from Sam start to loosen their grips, allowing Jack to free himself and run toward the rogues holding Sam down. Jack rips one off Sam and fights him tearing the throat out of the rogue. The distractions allow Sam to shift en

Josie POV I overheard Sam speaking with Adam. I knew things were complicated for us, I just wish I had not been such a fuck up and rejected him the first time. This would all be different. Or maybe it would not be different. Regardless, I had to accept that we had some more trials to deal with. Sam moves forward pulling me into his arms. “We will get through this babe,” he promises me as he rubs my back slowly. I lean closer into him, “I hope so,” I whisper. “Do not give up, Josie, promise me you will not do anything rash,” Sam requests leaning back to look me in the eyes. “I promise,” I reply with a small smile. “So, what is wrong?” I ask with hesitation. Did I really want to know? Sam explained to me that we needed Miranda to help with the breaking of the bond before we killed Tim. Sam hoped she would come tomorrow, now that they would know we have him. “We need to focus on the end prize, Josie; being together,” he says co

Sam POV I have my arm tossed around Josie’s waist as she lays naked on the bed face down. I find her sleep patterns cute to observe. She usually starts off in my arms but eventually pushes out of them to lay on her front dragging my arm around her. She always wants to be touching me, which is one of the many things I love about her. Jack had advised me that Alpha Lucas had woken up last night briefly but was resting again. We would check in first thing this morning with them to see what he knew or remembered. Josie started to stir, and I leaned forward kissing her back. She moans and pushes back into my arms. I wrap my arms around her body and hold her tightly to me. “Good morning baby,” I murmur in her ear. She semi growls as I have learned she is not a morning person willingly. She will get up and go but her first choice is to stay in bed longer. And I admit I quite enjoy that little trait she has. But for now, we are both
