51. Traitor

Layla didn’t fight when the Hunters wheeled back to the warehouse. She’d spat a few times, but the metallic taste and scent of blood still overwhelmed her senses. It made her nauseous. And she could still hear the Hunters' applause when they finally forced her teeth away from their guinea pig’s flesh. Everything else inside her was numb. Everyone has told her since discovering she was a red wolf that she was special and she would protect the pack. But now, she was just a weapon the Hunters would use against her people. They wheeled past the restricted door, but she didn’t feel the pull she felt when she’d gone past it before. That was because Rebecca was still in the room beside hers, unconscious. Vulnerable. There were no moves to make while the people she loved were at risk. Her hands were tied. The stench in the warehouse pulled her out of her thoughts as they wheeled through the door. The unit in the ceiling that gassed the room crossed her vision, reminding her again tha

52. Warriors

The full moon was high and the night was almost over. He could feel the wolves near him itching to run and follow their nature, but everyone stayed still. Everyone waited. Hunters had been driving into the base throughout the night. The car park was almost full like those fuckers were having a party while his mate was imprisoned inside their walls. He had never seen so many Hunters in one spot, not even when a hunting party chased them through the forest, and they were still coming. There was no doubt that whatever they were doing involved all the wolves they took. Soft footsteps behind him didn’t take his attention away from the gate. One chance. That was all he needed to get into the fortress the Hunters built for themselves. He wasn’t about to let anyone distract him from waiting for it. ‘I think you should rest while we wait,’ Dylan said in the mindlink. He didn’t bother to respond. There was no point repeating himself. The sound of another vehicle coming down the road r

53. Bite Me

Layla sat on the edge of the filthy mattress on the floor, staring at the blank wall. There was no TV or a comfortable bed, and they hadn’t provided another meal. The only thing they gave her was a new gown. The Commander liked mind games. Her people were stuck in their cages, cursing her for what they thought she did, losing their trust in their Queen. They thought she was living in luxury while they suffered. She hadn’t been able to mindlink Faith or Rebecca, but she could sense their emotions, even from the basement. The Commander never had any intention of treating her like a person. He was trying to alienate her to continue using her for his sick project. Mutherfucker. Her fists clenched for so long that they were numb. But she wouldn’t make the mistake of moving too soon again. The sound of wheels rolling on the concrete floor shifted her attention to the door. They kept the overly bright lights on in the small room, so she still couldn’t tell what time it was, but the

54. If You Build It, They Will Come

Irvine had been a rookie, but he’d had traps set up all over his property. It was only right to assume all the Hunter families near the base would do the same. Their traps would probably be more elaborate. ‘Everyone’s ready.’ Jax looked back at Dylan and then at the gates of the house he had chosen. He had never thought much about the Hunter family structures since he assumed they were all soulless bastards. For what he planned to do to them, he hoped that was true. Not that it would damage his already unsalvageable reputation, but Layla wouldn’t like it if he went around killing innocent people. Even if they fucking deserved it. She’d been disgusted by what he did to the Circle’s vampire assassins, but this would get uglier. ‘Remember to watch out for the traps. I see a lot of silver and smell wolfsbane. The fuckers must bathe in it,’ he told Dylan. Dylan turned back to whisper, ‘silver and wolfsbane’ to Chase, who was foolishly sticking to him, and another wolf from Ryker’

55. Now Or Never

Did she mishear him? Layla’s eyes widened as she looked at the unhinged Hunter in front of her. She’d only briefly been in the restricted area, but she knew what those disfigured Hunters were—failed experiments. So the Commander was ready to risk his life after one successful bite? They weren’t even sure if there would be any side effects. It hadn’t been long enough to tell if the experiment succeeded. “Didn’t you hear me? I said bite me, Layla,” the Commander said. He stepped forward, forcing her to take a step back. His eyes sparkled as if he was high on anticipating what was coming. She wanted to bite him—right through his neck. But there were guards in the room with their weapons pointed at her, and she didn’t know if Faith and the children were safe. They were her priority. “You’re willing to risk your life?” she asked. “I’m not risking anything. Don’t you see what I’ve done?” he asked, turning back to the glass cage and sweeping his arm at the turned Hunter. “I have done

56.Nia

Layla’s rage boiled over. No longer hidden behind her panic and worry, a white-hot fury left everything else in embers. Her fists clenched again, but she wasn’t trying to contain herself anymore. ‘Don’t, Layla,’ Rebecca said through their mindlink. ‘You don’t know what it will do to you.’ Her mother rushed up to the glass and put her palms against it. She hadn't noticed it before, but there were bags under her mother’s usually vibrant face, and the undeniable strength she always sensed from her mother was gone. The Hunters did that. They took a woman who once shielded a whole packhouse full of wolves, calmed them during the war and reduced her to just a shell of herself. A wolf rumoured to be stronger than anyone. They took scouts, the bravest and most skilled fighters out of all the packs. They took Gavin and Faith. They took children. She approached the glass that imprisoned her mother and placed her palm against it. Behind her, the mood shifted. The tension in the Hunters

57. I'm Coming

Jax watched the vehicles drive out of the gates, and several Hunters came out to hide in strategic points around the base wall. Beyond the open gates, more Hunters loaded onto their vehicles. They wouldn't leave the base unmanned—that much was a given. But fighting even half those bastards was better than the whole army. He only hoped the others were ready. His gaze remained on the Hunters still loading into the cars. The morning sun shone brightly without any hint of a cloud in the sky. There was nothing to hide behind, no darkness to cover him. The second he made his move, he needed to be ready to get attacked. ‘They’ll lead the Hunters as far away from the base as possible before they attack,’ Dylan said. His Beta, his brother, stood beside him, bloody from the bait they set when they attacked the Hunter families. He could sense Dylan’s eagerness to attack the base even though he stood perfectly still. It wasn’t their first time fighting side by side. He and Dylan went throu

58. Army

They were going to kill everyone? Like fuck, they would. Layla was within his reach, and they thought they could keep him from her? There were no windows, so it was pitch black in the building. It may have made no difference to the Hunters blocking his path because of their superior vision but for Layla... ‘Layla, where are you?’ ‘Outside the warehouse. They’ve locked everyone up in cages but can gas us all in seconds. I won’t be able to save them all.’ Cages? He’d been furious before, but the thought of his mate in a cage brought a surge of violent emotions that made him shift instantly. His mate in a cage? Like an animal? They tortured her and treated her so inhumanely. Cain lowered his head, ready to plough through all of them. ‘Are you hurt?’ he growled. ‘I smell blood.’ A lot of it. He already knew none of that blood was Layla’s, but he had no idea what the hell was happening. If she was caged, where had the blood come from? ‘No.’ ‘Can you break out of your cage?’ Jus

59. So Be It

Was she dreaming? Layla followed Jax out of yet another room, leaving destruction and bloodshed in their wake. Her head was a mess, but somehow Nia was holding everything together. Maybe her wolf had always kept things together, with all that shit they’d gone through growing up. But how could she fight like that when everything inside her was falling apart? How was Jax standing in front of her in the hellish place she’d thought she would die in? After watching him decimate their enemies, her hope they would make it out alive grew. Who would have thought that, after growing up in the slums of Wolfdale, she’d see so much bloodshed? That she would be a murderer? That she would like it. Watching Jax rip apart the enemy was like watching an artist at work. His movements were precise, smooth, and so quick that the Hunters couldn’t keep up with him. His red eyes matched all the red on the walls and the floor, and his teeth... She shivered when he dispatched the last Hunter in the room a

60. Gone

The air shifted without her giving it a thought. It was as if Nia really became the master of the darkness. Stuck in the whirlwind of fury in the wolf’s head, Layla didn’t think of anything else. Instead, she felt the surge of power surrounding her. It coursed through her veins, through every cell in her body and supercharged her. Jax must have felt it all because he shifted back to his wolf form without a word. The Commander stepped back, his eyes wide as he faced the Alpha King and his Queen. The energy in the room changed. Instead of the wolves showing their fear, a wave of hope came from them. But Nia saw nothing else except the monster in front of her. “What the hell are you doing? I said I’d kill you all,” the Commander hissed as he grabbed a gas mask from one of the Hunters. “Kill them!” The Hunter nearest to Faith raised his sword. Everything happened in slow motion. The shadows surrounded Nia as she lunged forward and snapped her teeth into the Hunter’s torso. A se
