Alpha Ethan (POV)Having Renee's shirt did help calm me down. I held it close to my face and eventually drifted off into a restless sleep. I didn't last long before I was awake tossing and turning again, but then I would eventually drift off again for a little bit. Finally, I woke up and saw the first few streams of daylight, I quickly got out of the car and surveyed the area around me. Amber was at the hood of the car with a map laid out examining it. I didn't see Jonathan anywhere. "Morning" Amber said without lifting her head. "Where is Jonathan?" I asked surprised he wasn’t here. "Scouting" Amber replied "I was planning to scout?" I growl"He thought it would be best if he went, leveler head and all." She stated still not bothering to raise her head. "You know, I know I am emotionally involved but that doesn't mean I don't still have sense, or I would have attacked the council when they came. Both you and Jonathan have seemed to forget who the Alpha is!" I growl Amber imme
Renee's POV It was so great to hear Ethan's voice again. It gave me strength; I started to feel ready for a fight. A Magical barrier? I knew a little bit about them, but they weren't used very often now, since most witches tried to stay neutral away from werewolf business. Amber was always much more interested in magic, I needed to talk to her."Oh, I won't" Ethan replied, his voice like silkI reluctantly broke the link and sent one to Amber. "Amber?""Oh my gosh! Renee are you ok?" Her voice comes through my head excited yet also scared. "As good as I can be in this situation." I replied softly before making my voice more commanding time was of the essence. I didn't know when Joey would be back with the food. "I'm sorry, I am short on time, magical barriers what happens if I try to leave without permission?" "Oh, uh It depends on how it's set up. You should be able to leave, they can only fully block from one direction. Although it could make you very ill, if you aren't suppose
Alpha Ethan (POV) Forgive her? Forgive her for what? I couldn't grasp what she possibly meant by that. Then there is the other thing she said that made both me and my wolf practically sing. Just so know you are the only one I want. My mind was playing it on repeat. Jonathan's voice cuts through my thoughts. "What's the plan?" I turn to face him and Amber. "She is going to try to escape, she asked me to wait as close to the barrier as possible for her. Then she had to cut the link, she said she would let us know if the plans change." "Alpha" it's Amber speaking now "You need to know that there is a possibility she will be very sick after crossing the barrier." "What? Why?" I question I didn't want Renee to harm herself"That is just how some barriers work" she replies hesitantly. I turn my eyes to the direction, I know Renee is in, I'm sure the pain is clear on my face. "She already knows" Amber states "Huh?""She already knows the barrier will probably make her sick, but it's
Renee's POV Joey gave me a small smile as he walked over. He was still very cautious bringing his hands forward to hand me the rags. I slowly walked over and raised my hands to take the rags. I made sure to graze his hand as I did. I looked into his eyes while still touching his hand and gave him a sweet smile. It had the effect I was looking for; I could see desire burning in his eyes. I brought a rag to my face and started wiping off the dried blood the best I could. He was watching me intently. I went and placed the other rags on my cot, before turning back towards Joey. I was fighting my stomach, trying not to puke as I stared into his eyes then pulled my shirt off. His jaw almost hit the floor and his eyes raked over my body darkening in desire. I tossed my shirt on the cot and picked up a rag. I started wiping my chest as if I didn't notice. I could still feel his eyes on me, I did my best to not think about it too much. I wiped off my neck before I grabbed another rag and
Alpha Ethan (POV) We had been hiding in the undergrowth for close to thirty minutes. All our senses where on edge searching for any perceivable change. But so far everything was quiet. Come on Renee, where are you? I was thinking to myself when I got a link. "My plan is working; I will hopefully see you soon." Renee's voice like music to my ears but before I could even respond she cut the link. "Be ready, her plan is working" I link to everyone else. I could barely see the pack house with various trees and small rises in the terrain blocking it. I kept looking for any possible signs of strange movements. We continued waiting, then about ten minutes later a bunch of wolves started rushing into the house. "This could be it, be at the ready" and before I could even finish the link something came out of a third story window of the pack house. Followed by another large thing they collided in midair. Before falling harshly to the ground below. Then I heard security howls coming from a
Renee's POVI instinctively put my hands out to protect myself from Joey in wolf form. He jumped out the window after me and I could tell we were going to collide.His neck got caught on the chain of the shackles holding his head away from me. But it didn't stop his body from slamming into me as we fell to the ground. Why did it feel like everything it was in slow motion? Must just the adrenaline? I grabbed his fur and pulled trying to change our position in the air. If he landed on top of me, I might be to injured and unable to run.I successfully flipped our position before we landed on the ground with a thud. He whimpered in pain and was stunned. Luckily, I landed on the pillow of his body before springing up to run towards Ethan.I heard howls sounding off in every direction. It was an alert that I had escaped. Damn it! I had to get out of here fast, before I had a bunch of wolves breathing down my neck. I had only made it about ten feet away from where we had landed. When I felt
Alpha Ethan (POV) We kept fighting pushing them back. "Alpha, how can she even make it out with all these wolves?" Amber links me "I don't know, but I'm not leaving until there is no other option!" I growl through the link as I snap another wolf's leg throwing them away."Let me go!" I hear Renee's voice echo around the forest. She was close but someone had her. Damn this barrier, I felt weak unable to help her. I roar loudly causing a few wolves near me to turn and run away. I walked forward to get closer to the field. I could see Renee running but a wolf was close on her tail. He lunged at her back and my heart caught in my chest. Then I saw her quickly turn and push her hands out in defense and to my surprise the wolf stopped in midair, then was pushed back flying the other direction. My jaw dropped before I smiled to myself. I guess she got her gifts. I didn't have time to enjoy it for long, before three wolves lunged towards me. I continued throwing the wolves back, but the
Renee’s POV I had the strangest dream. I was in a small village; I am guessing it was some time in 1800's based on the clothing I and the people around me were wearing. I was walking towards the edge of town. I kept turning my head back as if I was making sure I wasn't followed. It was dusky outside and the sun was almost down. I waited for a little bit, but no one seemed to notice me. I gathered up my skirts and started sprinting towards the woods. I kept running until I reached a small cottage in the woods. "I was scared you wouldn't come." A voice comes from behind me. It was smooth and sweet."My family knows, Victor, and they aren't happy about it, they said they are going to the Wolf king." I say while turning to face a tall, pale, handsome man. "How did they find out?" He asks while tensing up and looking around."My mother she" my voice caught as tears started pouring out of my eyes. "She smelled my sheets and recognized it as pigs blood. She knew it wasn't mine." "We must
