Azreal called Lila and the remaining hunters to his private office and wasted no time in speaking, “I know you are all getting ready to embark on a mission that may or may not result in some life-changing results but right now, I need you all to concentrate on keeping everyone as calm as possible,” the Alpha rattled off quickly. “It was brought to my attention earlier tonight that Dante witnessed a visiting wolf being assaulted by Alpha Talia’s personal guard,” he continued, and Jay slammed his fist down on Azreal’s desk. The Alpha glared at the fair-haired hunter and Jay only took a knee on the floor, “it was later discovered that this young wolf had refused some sexual advances made by Talia and when he rejected her, she forced herself on him and then had her guards try to silence him,” Azreal continued and Mj’s stomach churned with the information.Azreal listened to the subtle growls around him before he proceeded, “I have to throw her off Quicksilver land in front of all the ot

Mj passed Jay her phone after hanging up with Azreal and pursed her lips as she wiggled uncomfortably in the small, very tight strapless dress Sam had given her. The assassin tried to argue that a sensible pair of pants and a t-shirt would be perfect to move in during combat, but Ace had reminded her they were staging a hand off and nobody showed up to a club in combat boots and jeans. John Pearl stood outside the open car door and handed Jay a syringe before giving Mj’s appearance a once over, “are you hoping to kill them with your legs assassin,” the doctor mused and Mj’s skin ran cold as she watched his eyes travel up and down her exposed skin. Jay swiftly popped his fist upward into John’s nose, and the doctor groaned as blood squirted from his beak.Mj giggled at her brother as he simply winked at her and shoved the business end of the needle into Casper’s arm. The club owners head flopped to the side, and he grumbled, Mj twisted her lips up in uncertainty, “is this gonna work if

Jay bent forward at the waist and cautiously crept toward the dark pod, as he entered he was met with the flash of yellow eyes and a deep threatening growl followed by the muffled cries of a small baby. Jay put his hands up in the air and stood up straight, “we came here to help,” he began and the snarling sound of a young wolf’s desperate attempt to be vicious and intimidating rang out, echoing off the walls of the small room. Jay took a step back and kept his hands up, “ok, it’s ok, we aren't here to hurt you,” he tried again and this time the sound of an angry voice echoed the walls, “LIAR,” a young girl's voice spat, “lab coat,” she growled and Jay kicked himself before shrugging it off and dropping it on the floor. “I stole it from a dead guy,” he admitted and was rewarded with a shocking gasp, “LIAR,” she spat and Jay scratched the back of his head before he shrugged, “look,” he began and stopped when Moxie’s warm chuckle floated into the room, “relax sher, give him a break yea,

After managing to find a small access door hidden flush against the wall, Mack and Marco shifted before peeling the small door away from the wall. Mj smirked as she watched the swamp wolves open the hidden passage like a tuna can and slowly made their way inside before she followed them with Azreal on her tail. The four of them slowly made their way through the dark corridor and as Mj began to stumble in the dim lit passage one of the twins grunted as he pressed his back against her side and Mj smirked as she grabbed his large furry misshapen hand, “lead the way LaFlare I can’t see,” she whispered and although the information seemed wrong, the more she tried to see through the dark the more intense the pressure became behind her eyes and just as the sensation began to turn into another migraine Mj felt Azreal brush past her. The Alpha thrust his shoulder into a sealed door in front of them and with a little resistance, the door burst open, a small fluorescent light popped a small bit

Lila stood on the front steps of the pack house pacing, every available motorized vehicle that was on the premises had been sent to assist her mate. The feelings she was reading from Calix were making her feel panicked, and all she could do was pace and worry until the early signs of returning wolves peaked just over the horizon of her vision. Mara put her palm in the center of Lila’s back and the overly worried Beta sighed softly just before Tanner came stumbling out the door, almost falling straight into the both of them. Tanner grabbed Mara’s shoulder and Lila’s shoulder as he squeezed his face between them and hugged both women tightly. “Why the long faces ladies, we won, everybody is coming home,” he cheered and Lila pulled herself away from the celebratory hug before she turned to face Tanner and Mara, “I didn’t want to say anything in front of the kids but, we lost a few wolves,” she said somberly and Tanner grabbed Mara’s hand as she gasped, “about twenty, some from packs and
