** Paige’s POV **

I huddle on the floor between the bed and the wall with Jaxon pressed against my chest, and Poppy whispering prayers beside me. My hands tremble, and I can feel my heart hammering in my throat. Every sound outside twists my stomach. I want to curl into myself, to make it all stop, but my mind won’t let me. I’m trapped between fear and the desperate need to do something. Anything.

How am I going to explain this to Poppy if we survive the night? If they survive. If Ryder or. Remy… if Callen… if anyone… My chest tightens at the thought. The reality of what’s happening outside makes me feel like a fraud, hiding here while my mates fight and risk everything. I feel useless.

A sharp voice cuts through my panic. “Where can I find clean towels?” Parker asks, crouched beside me. His eyes are calm, but I can see the tension in his jaw.

“Cupboard,” I manage to say, pointing toward the airing cupboard across the room.

He nods, yanking every towel he can grab and stacking them in

  • The Lost Pack   Chapter 102

    ** Paige’s POV **Leo groans, his body twitching under the blanket. Poppy startles, her nails digging into her knees as her gaze flies to him. His head rolls weakly to the side; his eyes remain shut, but his hand twitches, reaching blindly toward her again.Poppy’s breath hitches. “Why does he keep…”“Because the bond doesn’t let go,” Callen says simply.Poppy squeezes her eyes shut, her whole body trembling. “This is too much. I can’t handle this.”“You don’t have to handle it all tonight,” I tell her, desperate to stop the rising panic in her voice. “Just breathe. One step at a time.”She hugs her knees tighter, whispering, “I had a plan. I was going to finish school. Get into vet training. Work with animals. Not… not be mated to some stranger who turns into one.”Her words sting, but not because she means them harshly. It’s because I know exactly what it feels like to have your life ripped away and rewritten without your consent.“You can still be that,” I say quietly. “Being part

  • The Lost Pack   Chapter 101

    ** Paige’s POV **Poppy washes her hands before putting the equipment in a bowl and pouring boiling water over it. She kneels beside Leo again, her face pale, but her hands are steady. She sucks in a breath, closing her eyes and muttering a prayer before her eyes snap open and she looks down at Leo with determination. “Okay, move your hands.”I move back, grimacing at the blood now that the pressure isn’t slowing it.“He’s going to need a blood transfusion, although I don’t know if your vet can even find suitable blood for him. I’d suggest calling ahead to give them some time to source some,” she says as she examines the wound.“I’ll do it,” Callen says without hesitation. Poppy may think he’s agreeing to call the vet, but I know what he really means. He plans to donate his own blood to Leo.Poppy doesn’t flinch as she digs in. Her hands are steady, practised. I know how passionate she is about becoming a vet, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen her in action. She works like she

  • The Lost Pack   Chapter 99

    ** Callen’s POV **Dinner is going well, although my attempts to do some digging into Poppy have failed miserably. Paige had known instantly that I wasn’t just making polite conversation; she had sensed my intentions had ulterior motives. I can’t wait to see the fallout later. Hopefully, it will end in some angry sex, and she will forgive me.“Movement,” Leo’s urgent voice cuts through the mind-link.Leo is one of our most skilled enforcers. He’s not one to overreact or jump the gun, so if he thinks this is enough to alert us, we take it seriously. My eyes meet Ryder’s as all four of go still.“What is it?” Ryder asks him.“Two cars just pulled up at the end of the street. Four males have exited so far, but there’s at least four more inside. They have rifles, real ones. I’m going to shift and track them.”“Be careful,” Rye says before alerting the rest of the pack to be ready.“I want four more enforcers sent to us, and every other fighter on the border now. Keep our lines strong.” I

  • The Lost Pack   Chapter 98

    ** Paige’s POV **Back at my rental house, I hold my breath as Ryder unlocks the door and pushes inside with Remy right behind him. My gaze drops automatically to the floor just inside the entryway. No ominous letters are waiting for me this time. I let out a relieved breath.We wait outside for the all-clear before stepping fully inside. The place is exactly how we left it, but the air is stale, like a room sealed off for too long. I move from window to window, unlatching and pushing them open to let the cool air trickle in. Jaxon plops onto the couch in the living room, the TV already flickering to life, and my guys drift toward the kitchen that suddenly feels far too small.It hits me then: this place has never really felt like mine. I’ve never spent enough time here for it to build those special memories, and it doesn’t have the familiarity or ease of home that the cabin does. And with four overgrown men in the kitchen, I can barely breathe.I should give this place up. Keeping it

  • The Lost Pack   Chapter 97

    ** Ryder’s POV **The house is quiet, apart from the faint hiss of water running upstairs. Paige has disappeared into the shower, her laughter from training still echoing in my head. Only it’s not the memory of her laughter that keeps my wolf pacing. It’s the way she moves. I already knew she was fast, but this is more than speed or instinct. The way she blocked every move before any of us could touch her. Then there’s whatever the hell happened with Callen.None of us calls her on it, not out loud, but the look we all share speaks volumes. I’ve not been brought up in this life, and I might not know the limits of what the bond can do for a human, but I do know that the abilities human mates develop only come from our wolves. This isn’t that.Remy leans against the kitchen counter, arms folded tight across his chest, his usual smirk gone. Callen sits at the kitchen island, tapping his fingers on the marble restlessly, while Parker hovers by the window, looking like he’ll bite anyone wh
