All Chapters of Between Two Naughty Wolves: Chapter 131 - Chapter 139

CHAPTER 132: The Calm Before the StormAllison’s POV“There,” Lucius said, pointing a finger at a cluster of gray markings near the old textile ruins. “The Eagle’s Nest. It was an old Boyega hunting lodge off the grid since the seventies. My scouts confirmed heat signatures.”I stared at Lucius, feeling the urge to wrap my hands around his throat and squeeze until his eyes popped. This was his mess. His “ghost flight” had been about as secure as a screen door on a submarine.“Great,” I said, my voice dripping with the kind of acid that could melt steel. “You found the place. Do you want a gold star? Or should I wait until after I get my son back to decide whether or not I’m going to ruin your life?”The wrinkles on his face deepened. “Allison, I understand your anger...”“No, you don’t,” I snapped, leaning over the table. “You don’t understand shit. You told me he was safe. Instead, he’s with a psychopath who thinks ‘fatherhood’ involves kidnapping and threats. So, unless you’ve got

CHAPTER 134: GambleVictoria's POV“I want my mummy! I want to go home! Let me go!” Theo shrieked with his face a blotchy mess of tears and snot. He was thrashing in my grip, his small heels digging into the rug of the hideout.We were back in Gerald’s underground sanctuary. After the chaos at the lodge, Gerald had insisted we return here. He had spent a fortune making the place look "refined" with chairs, tables and walls lined with books no one actually read. But to me, it was just a fancy cage.“Theo, stop it. Now,” I hissed, my hands trembling as I tried to hold his shoulders. My magic was flickering under my skin, restless and bruised from the scrying session. “You’re safe here. Your mother… she’ll be here soon.”It was a lie and the boy knew it.“You’re a bad lady! You’re the mean witch!” Theo sobbed, his voice cracking. He lunged forward and bit my hand and I yelped, pulling back as the sting of his teeth radiated up my arm. “You little brat!”“For God’s sake, Victoria,

CHAPTER 136: A Mother’s Coldest ResolveAllison's POVThe thing about Jacob is that he’s like a Swiss Army knife. Just when you think you’ve seen all the ways he can handle a situation... or a girl... he pulls out a new trick.I stood there in the damp moonlit clearing with my hands steady on my weapons but my mind was still reeling from the stunt he’d just pulled. A projection? A literal ghost-version of himself to scout out the enemy and talk smack while the rest of us moved into position? I didn’t even know Alphas could do that. It made me wonder what else he was hiding. If he could be in two places at once that certainly opened up some interesting possibilities for our Friday nights.But as I watched the mouth of the tunnel those thoughts evaporated, replaced by a cold and sharp focus.Gerald and Victoria stumbled out of the darkness looking like two people who had just realized they’d brought a knife to a nuclear meltdown. Victoria was pale with her fingers twitching as if she

CHAPTER 138: The Edge of MadnessAllison’s POV“Theo!”My voice tore out of my throat so hard it burned. It didn’t even sound like me anymore. It sounded like something broken… something desperate.“Theo!!”The forest swallowed his name throwing it back at me in weak echoes that meant nothing.Gone.. he was gone.My knees hit the ground before I even realized I had stopped moving. My hands clawed at the dirt, nails digging into the damp earth as if I could rip the world open and pull him back out.“No… no, no, no… not my baby… not my Theo…”A sob forced its way out of my chest, ugly and loud and I didn’t try to stop it. I couldn’t. My whole body shook like it was trying to tear itself apart from the inside.Behind me, I heard heavy movement… labored breathing… something dragging against the ground.Jacob.I turned sharply, wiping at my face with shaking hands and what I saw made my heart twist in a completely different way.He was a mess.Blood covered him… not just streaks or cuts bu
