Caren’s POV “He doesn’t want me, remember?” I said, before resting my eyes on Reed. I can’t believe what Parker and Lottie are suggesting. I heard what Nix, Lottie and Ethan said about him being a great guy. But they don’t understand how worthless he made me feel. Deana understands my reservation, but still wants her mate. Both me and Lottie make Nix a promise to rescue Eden. Then I went back to Reed. To finish his healing, he may not want me. But that doesn’t mean I want him to die. Then I plan on getting some rest. Freya is holding onto Reed. “Freya, can you go inside? I have something to finish. Before he is back to full health.” She runs up to me and hugs me. “Thank you, he’s my hero,” she says before kissing my cheek. I couldn’t help but smile at her. With what she has just been through and she is being so sweet. I watched her go into the house. Then I looked at him, “Lie down.” I instructed Reed. He does as he is told and lays down. He never takes his eyes off me

Alpha Rick’s POV I dragged her out of the cell, listening to her yelling for her mommy. The pair of them deserve what they get. They robbed me of my pack, my life and my family. “Tie her up.” I told my men as I let go of her hair. I know exactly what I am going to do to her. But first I plan on humiliating her. I approached the stockpile of weapons I had put here earlier. I coated each one in silver shards to dampen any additional wolf healing abilities she may have. But I guess the wolfsbane is still in her system. I haven’t seen their wolves. Roger was in the crowd, looking worried. I wonder if I can get rid of one loose end tonight. “Roger.” I grabbed a knife and walked over to him. “You can have the honor of removing her clothes so we can all have a good look at her.” “What? No, she is a child. She doesn’t deserve that humiliation.” The look of horror on his face tells me I am getting to him. “That is only the start of what I am planning on doing to her.” I laughed. “In

Nix’s POV “My mate is out there. Now let’s move.” I said through gritted teeth. We should have made it there by now. It’s nearly 8am. It would have been better to plan instead of rest. “We have wasted enough time.” Ethan opens a tin of soup and pours some on Freya. I hope the barrier blocks smells. Visually, it should distract them. We went to the back door and I gave Freya a nod. She gave an almighty loud scream. Then she screams again as she runs out of the door. I could hear her shouting, “Help me! Help me.” Parker and Ethan ran out after her. The wolves from the back of the house race away. That is our signal to go. We all ran to the woods behind Millie’s house. As soon as I cross over the barrier, the burning sensation in my neck starts and I feel so weak. I dropped to my knees. Maddox and Reed both grab me by my arms to support me. They carried me out of eyesight of the house. “Stop. You both need to be in your wolf form. Your senses are better that way. Caren and

Diesel’s POV “Millie is dead because of me, Diesel. She is dead. She used all her strength to get us here.” Nix says sadly. “I was powerless to avenge our mother’s death. We aren’t powerless anymore. We need to make sure they get revenge.” “Agreed.” That is the only word that I think of to answer with. Millie could have defended herself if she had her power. She drained herself to help Nix get here. Now Lottie and Caren have become orphans. “Kill him,” Nix demands. I saw the direction the coward ran in. He can’t be that far away as he was on foot. I yapped at Lottie, hoping she’d come with me, but I didn’t stop to see if she did. I rushed towards the men standing in my way. I will catch him. I will catch him, but I won’t kill him. Begrudgingly, both me and Nix agree on that. Lottie and Caren are ahead of me in that queue. But if they need help. I will be there, ready to snap the bastard’s neck. I don’t slow down as I charge into the crowd of men that are s

Eden’s POV I could see him. He was walking towards us with a knife in his hand. Was he coming to finish what he started? I sobbed, remembering what he had done to me. The humiliation, the pain, the fear. I looked at my mom’s face, seeing what he had done to her. Just as I was about to scream, Diesel appeared. Grabbing his attention. The blade was there, lying on the ground. The one he used to stab my mom with. When he was distracted by Diesel. I reached over and grabbed the knife. My whole body was shaking as I made my way towards him. I was trying my best to be as quiet as possible. I was so close to him I could smell him. I kept thinking to myself, ‘any second, he is going to turn around’. But he didn’t. Then I did it. I plunged the knife into my kidnapper’s back. It slid into his body so easily. He tried to turn around. I didn’t wait to find out if he did. I sprinted back to Mom and grabbed her hand. Bending down, I kissed her, “I got him, mom. I got him.” I whispered int
