Alaska looks at Hayden, taking in him, his posture, his location as well as the internals of the room. He looks as sleazy as ever, he sits relaxed on one of the large sofas with a drink in one hand and his phone in the other hand. A handsome smile on his handsome face, his blonde hair captures the lights from the club below in the large window overlooking the dance floor, his amber eyes are piercing as they drink her in, his posture is relaxed and his expression is a calm, it is nearly a gentle look, but his eyes give away his predatory nature. If she couldn’t read him in such a way, then she might be taken by his sappy sentiments.

"An extra half an hour with you is all I could’ve ever wanted"

Alaska giggles and tucks her hair behind her ear as she tries to cover how repulsed she is by such words. This is the first time they have been face to face since the meeting at the summer pack. It is easier to keep composed when there are two phones and a whole lot of distance between the two. N

  • She is his beta   Chapter 50

    The vision on the screen tilts up from the floor and the broken door. It is only maybe a couple of steps in from where they were before they lost contact. It seems about right. The first thing to do when entering would be to look around, so they probably took that extra moment."Thatcher? Taylen?…"There is still no reply. Valen glances at Trenton, who is still furiously trying to get through to his sons on the phone. Trenton can only shake his head as he continues to try. Valen looks to Arden."...Fix it"Arden can only grit his teeth, stepping around the body on the ground. The only one in the room who was capable of doing such a thing is now nothing more than a tripping hazard. He can’t fix it. He leaned on his brothers for this, concentrating his efforts on other things but it doesn’t stop him from trying. He just does exactly what the other man did, with much the same result. He doesn’t want to do too much because they might just lose the little they have."I can’t do much more"

  • She is his beta   Chapter 49

    Valen tries to keep his back pressed against the cushioned office chair, but even with concentrated effort he finds himself leaning forward closer to the screens. He takes a deep shuddering breath, even with the continued lack of sleep, the anticipation is enough to get the adrenaline flowing through his veins.He adjusts the microphone on the headset once more, as if one millimeter either way will make the difference in his ability to control of situation."Is everyone in position?""Ready"A chorus comes back at him, and he grits his teeth, giving up the fight and leaning closer to the screens. He is still in the safety of the Autumn pack within the confines of the alpha office. He can't help but second guess himself about sending others to do the task. He is anxious, but he isn’t foolhardy. There was only so much he could find out. An address isn’t enough to make up for the lack of knowledge for the last three years. This is a reconnaissance mission.Arden is leaning over his fathe

  • She is his beta   Chapter 48

    It doesn’t matter to Valen that Jaxson and Alaska haven’t even equaled the death toll of what was taken from them. The Barrow’s don’t lose. Retribution needs to be taken for what was lost and this is about self-preservation. Fatigue still plagues him and, at the end, nothing can ever be the same, but he will never bow down. He still has his life, and he refuses to let it all fall. Valen stands up, they have wasted enough time."...Lets go""Where are we going?""The autumn pack"They need to know where Jaxson and Alaska are, they need to make up all this ground quickly and the pairs first advantage is that they are hidden, while they know every part of the seasons packs inner workings. They are able to work on the outskirts, avoiding detection, which is how they were able to succeed. They can no longer be the enigma.Arden barely glossed over the problems within the businesses. Draven had picked it up and the oldest set of twins had flagged it enough to make them suspect Jax’s involve

  • She is his beta   Chapter 47

    Valen rubs his hands down his face. He has done it so many times in the past half an hour that he's scared at least one layer of skin has been removed with the rigorous motion. He might actually have at some point. He just can’t feel it and, with the situation in front of him now, he couldn't care less if he rubbed off every layer until his jaw bone is showing. He isn't sure if he would even feel it at all. It still wouldn’t be his biggest loss of the day.Arden has calmed down enough and has taken a seat and finally managed to explain a little more clearly. Even though clear would be the overstatement of the century, Arden really knows very little and is concentrating far more on the loss of his twin and the culprits than how they actually managed to get there in the first place.Valen has gone through the first stage of grief in such a short time, straight through to anger. Frustration is pulsing through his veins.They just left the summer pack without saying a single thing to him.

  • She is his beta   Chapter 46

    The fight that Arden worries about doesn't happen. They scour the edge of the forest, following the direction that the two were seen taking and even though the ground is in the ideal conditions for tracking they seem to lose any trace of the two unreasonably quickly.Jaxson was meant to be weak. What was done to his fate was supposed to be enough to cripple the man and even though they know now that it was a ruse, it is still impossible to think that the man who was flailing about and screaming in pain could escape as flawlessly as that. The group in pursuit are the ones lagging.The sodden ground which should hold the tracks so much more effectively has been covered, the rain doing everything to cover every other trace of the pairs quick departure and the groups incoherent and desperate pursuit filled with anger and very little reason has done everything else to trample any sign that might have been left.Their messy minds unable to focus, they could have missed something or there co

  • She is his beta   Chapter 45

    The pack doctors' words are enough to get a few people in the crowd rushing forward to help. Some people are tearing off their sodden clothing to try and bandage the wound, others are grabbing her body and transporting her quickly towards the pack hospital, not caring that she was supposed to die and Arden had every intention of killing her. If there is a chance to save her, then they need to do it. This is autumn pack lands and considering who she was supposed to be in this place, they need to do all they can. Arden’s rule means little here; there was no fair trial, and it really just seemed like she was collateral damage. Even if Jax has done far too much, it really seems like Arden didn't know that until after he carried out the punishment.If she is strong enough to hold onto life even with such an injury, then they have to preserve it the best they can.Just because she is alive doesn’t mean she is in a good state, and she really needs urgent medical attention.
