Bo
I'd had my ass kicked several different ways, but the instant I woke up, I was horny as fuck. The best
way to heal would be my Luna's sweet pussy wrapped around my cock. There was only one problem.
My Luna wasn't anywhere around.
"Stay," Zale growled at me from his bed.
Clara was still passed out in her own bed, and snoring up a storm. I was tempted to grab a pillow and
lob it at her head. "I'm horny," I whined.
"Deal with it. What the fuck hit us?"
I shrugged. "Some wizard? I wasn't expecting to run into that."
Zale gestured to Clara with his head. "Who the hell did you bring into my pack, Bo? Are you
abandoning your Luna so quick?"
I huffed. I expected that kind of insult from Javier but it's not something I should have to deal with from
my own Alpha. "No," I snapped. "That's Amanda's kid."
Zale's face went blank. "What? What kind of wolf nip did you wonder into? There's no way that's her
kid. She's way too old."
"Yeah apparently that pack of hers is pretty messed up. Clara is one of four daughters. She had like
five sons but I had to kill a few of them. They weren't going to let us go, and I wasn't about to listen.
The wizard did something to make them grow up, and Amanda doesn't even know they're around. She
was told they all died."
Zale turned his full focus on Clara, paying better attention to her now. "That pack must be destroyed. I
don't care if they have ten of those wizards. We will find a way."
I winced. "Sure, but let's give us a bit to rest up first. Besides, where is our lovely little Luna? Shouldn't
she be around here somewhere?"
Zale sighed, his expression darkening. Oh shit, he looked like a severe storm had rolled in. When he
looked like this, people died. I wasn't about to be one of those.
"She's with Javier," he replied after a long moment.
No, something was off. He was hiding something from me. What the hell was this? Maybe I should lob
the pillow at him instead. He'd punish me for it, but it would be worth it, especially if I ripped the pillow
before I threw it. The idea of Zale spitting feathers made my heart warm up. It would serve him right for
some of the shit he'd pulled on me before.
My thoughts were interrupted as a white rectangle was thrown at my face and the pillow exploded on
impact. A feather tickled my lips but I was determined to not give that bastard the satisfaction of seeing
me spit it out. "Asshole."
Zale shrugged. "They'll be here soon. Some pack members went to get them."
I didn't like the sound of that. Why in the world would pack members be needed to retrieve them? Then
again, we'd managed to get our asses kicked too. "Zale, what the hell is going on? Our borders weren't
like this before."
"I know," he grunted. He collapsed against the bed. "Fuck," he whimpered.
My blood ran cold. "Zale?"
"I'm fine," he spat. But thing was, he didn't sound fine at all.
"Zale," I growled his name, the feathers falling out of my mouth as I slipped off my bed and hobbled
toward his. My body complained and ached with every step but fuck it. He knew something and he
needed to spit it out. "Where is my mate?" I snarled. Ares was MIA but my wolf was more than willing
to press forward if I needed him. We'd kick Zale's injured ass and deal with the punishment later. The
important bit was finding our Luna.
"She was almost kidnapped out of the pack. A demon that had taken Yale over had her out of the NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
shield. Ares forced her to shift, and Javier was forced to go through the shield to get her back. They're
both pretty busted up. They'll be okay for the most part, but they're getting healing before brought in
here."
"I'll fucking murder them." I turned, prepared to limp my ass out the door.
"Stop," Zale ordered.
He wasn't playing anymore. If I pushed it, he really would punish me.
"Bo."
"You expect me to just sit in bed and wait for her?"
He gestured to Clara again. "Why don't you settle on trying to figure out how to explain that to her. Who
knows what will happen if she discovers there are more of them back there."
I'd forgotten about the rest of Amanda's family. That was yet another problem to handle. "What do we
focus on first, Zale? We've got demons at the north and a powerful fucking wizard on the south. What
do we do?"
"The same way we handle all issues," Zale patiently explained with a deep sigh. "We're going to handle
one problem at a time. How much did you find out about the situation there? We'll compare your report
and Javier's report and the weaker target will be taken care of first."
"I have no idea what Javier found, but that asshole's pack is determined to get Amanda back. They
claimed she was even marked before. Something weird is going on with her, Prime." Not that it
mattered. I'd already marked her so no matter what ended up being the case I would stay at her side.
"We'll figure it out, Bo."
Clara stirred, stretching her limbs and slowly waking up. "Where am ?" she snapped, twisting left and
right trying to place where we'd dragged her.
Zale twitched then turned to look at me. "You're up, Bo. I'm not handling this. You're the one that
brought her back."
"Hey!" I objected.
But my cries faded away. The door opened and Javier was wheeled in, completely passed out. Next to
him on a similar stretcher was Amanda, and I'd never seen her so pale before.
I didn't care what Zale ordered from this point on. I would travel north, and clear out every single
demon by myself if I had to.
