LOGIN“So far, we have not encountered anything too terrible. Marietta can help too, but we need to hurry. I think we found our reason and possibly a solution to our situation. And…if we are right, we are on a deadline.”She jumps back from the window as I lift Marietta in, then follow my mate through the
105 - BenArriving back at the packhouse is surreal. Elara’s pack, our pack has been so sufficient in recovering from this attack that the only sign of a problem is the teetering and singed packhouse itself.There is no one else lying around injured, no cries for help or panic. Coven and Pack member
“Ben, this is amazing!” Trevor, a pack warrior, claps me on the back as we step through the main doors.“It’s not done, but it’s good enough to house everyone.” I shrug and look around for Marge and Maggie. Spotting them with a group of younger witches, I call out, “Marge! I need your help.” And jog
104 - BenI am going to lose my mind. She will be the death of me for sure. I would prefer to die buried inside her than worrying about what she is doing inside the crumbling packhouse with Brianna. I have been standing guard over Jason and Juliette for over an hour now. The steam has finally stoppe
“I’m not sure what to do.” I say over my shoulder to Brianna. “The window felt right, but nothing here does.” I feel stupid. The magic looks so easy when the witches use it, and I don’t know why I thought it would be easy for me to spot it or feel it or whatever with the amount of time I have spent

“I don’t want you down there alone.” Ben says for probably the tenth time. Jax and Dev laugh at the exchange. I’m surprised our back and forth hasn’t gotten old for them.“Understood, but Jason needs you more than I do and Juliette needs to be around male wolves who won’t harm her.”“What are you ta
“That was probably the plan.” Dev muses. “I’ll stay here, you guys go. Let’s check in…say an hour?”I nod. “Get Marietta down here, I am not above letting her work with Elara to forcefully get answers out of him. And have Brianna check in on Juliette. As much as I don’t want to think it, she could s
82 - BenElara was rapid fire texting the entire drive back to the packhouse. I assume it’s to the witches about Juliette, but she clearly was mindlinking her warriors too, because as we pull up ten people are waiting on the massive steps for us.Jax and Dev look more menacing than I have ever seen
86 - BenJuliette jumps at his abrupt entrance. “For the love of the f*cking Goddess. I’m not going to hurt you.” Jason grumbles heading straight to the couch, not looking at anyone.“You could have fooled me.” She whispers, then shivers. I wonder if it is the matebond affecting her, or the fact tha
