Semua Bab Wolfless Hybrid: The Awakened Witch : Bab 141 - Bab 147

Rita's POV “Shut up, Rita! Are you trying to get us caught?” Maeve hissed from behind Lauren, her eyes darting nervously.“Oh please. This whole mess started because you couldn’t follow simple instructions,” I shot back, my voice low and bitter. “I told you to hide Luke, not try to kill him. That’s when the whole plan started to go south. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, Vera had to go and screw things up even worse.”I could feel the rage bubbling in my chest, the weight of everything I had lost.“Now look at me. I get nothing. After everything I’ve done, every step I took to become the woman Ashton could lean on, I'm left with nothing. I was supposed to be there for him. I was supposed to help him through losing you, Lauren. I would have stayed by his side, shown him I was ready to love him completely. But no, it all fell apart. I’m allowed to be angry! Everything I built was burned to the ground, while you..." I turned toward Maeve, sneering, “you still get what you wanted. A saf

Ashton's POV I was mindlinking every warrior and ranked member I could reach the moment we realized what was happening. I needed to get to Lauren, now. Panic clawed at my chest like never before. I had contacted Co-Beta Tim and both Deltas, Frank and Clint, ordering them to assemble a team with a tracker and head straight to the new packhouse.As I ran, I briefed them on everything. The uncertainty of Lauren’s safety gnawed at my sanity. Goddess help anyone involved, if they harmed my mate or my unborn pup, I would make sure none of them lived to regret it.Now it all made sense. Maeve shot Luke to keep him from exposing her plan. But it was too late to dwell on that, we had to act fast to stop them from getting away with our mates.Oliver left us in the dust as he ran ahead. I saw my father sprint to meet him, and the two of them headed straight toward the parking garage.We arrived a minute later, and the sight stole the air from my lungs. My mother lay unconscious in my father’s a

Maya's POV I had woken up just before we landed, but I refused to move. I kept my eyes shut and my breathing even, pretending to be asleep. Damien’s scent clung to me, heavy and unmistakable. I didn’t need anyone to tell me, he had held me. And I was almost certain he had kissed me, too. The urge to scrub my mouth raw was a clear enough sign.We were in a vehicle now, and I could sense his presence close by. I didn’t dare open my eyes. I could feel him watching me, waiting. If he knew I was awake, I had no doubt he would try something. The very thought of Damien touching me again made my skin crawl.It wasn’t that he was unattractive, far from it, but that only made it worse. He knew exactly how to use his looks to manipulate others. I had seen it too many times. He had lied to more she-wolves than I could count, promising them the Luna title just to get them into his bed.He wasn’t a good man. Beyond the charm and the perfectly styled hair, there was nothing real about him. He cared

Oliver's POV We were airborne just forty minutes after Damien took our mates. We weren’t far behind, but that did little to calm my nerves. My team is always on standby, trained to move fast with little warning, but this mission? This one mattered more than most.Everyone understood what was at stake. It wasn’t just about saving my mate, it was Ashton’s and Gabriel’s too. The weight of it pressed on all of us."Damien won’t even see us coming," I muttered, jaw clenched.We are going to kill all five of them. That was the goal. But whether it stays that clean depends on how his pack reacts, if they can be reasoned with, we’ll spare them. If not...It was supposed to be six, but Rita’s body was discovered just after we arrived at the airstrip. One less enemy, but it didn’t ease the fury burning in our chests.No one felt a shred of pity for Rita. She had brought this on herself. Ashton, especially, was seething, he wanted to be the one to end her. His rage simmered just beneath the sur
