Noah's POV"Fine. I'll go with you, if that will settle your nerves and make you feel better. I'll do anything to help you out."I screeched like a little girl then threw myself in his arms."Thank you so much!""You're welcome Uncle!"Reid says chuckling as he pats my back.For extra precaution we have a SUV following behind us with 4 warriors.In the back seat with us is Abigail and Xander. I was thankful that they were over here visiting. Xander is actually a temporary beta for Maddox right now.I got lucky that they were both visiting Reid today.My eyes dart around as I take in the scenery while pulling into Garrick's pack. I've actually never been here before.I feel relieved as soon as I see that it doesn't look like Ace's or Nicholas's pack.I actually see people out and about, people walking around, pups playing.The place actually looks nice and I feel such a relief flood me. I was terrified it was going to be a deserted looking place like the other two packs.It's the first
Christian's POV I start to wake up when I feel my dad getting out of the car and adjusting me in his arms. I pretend to stay asleep. I'm not ready to tell him. How can I? I should have never left. He was so adamant about me coming home with him. But I was so happy I found my mate. And wanting to make him happy, I agreed to go home with him. I just didn't realize the hell I was walking into. It started as soon as I walked into his room. I was actually so excited, I walked into the room with a smile on my face. But as I seen the bed and got closer, the smile quickly fell from my face. The bed had not been made. The sheets were all tangled up. And the stench, it reeked of sex. I stepped closer to the bed and could literally see the dried up fluids from both him and whoever he had in this bed. The scent was so strong, I knew he had someone in here last night. Right after leaving me he came home and fucked someone in the bed he expects me to sleep in with him. My heart dropped an
Christian's POVI sit here in my cousin Reid's officeWith Reid sitting across for me in the Alpha's chair, and my parents sitting next to me with My dad in my father's lap.I sit here looking at my lap as I tell them everything that's happened.I feel so ashamed, so embarrassed as I tell the story. I tell them how I was forced to watch my mate have sex with Julia almost every night. She practically stayed in that room.Apparently before he found me she was going to be his chosen mate. They were in love with each other.I told them how I tried to leave the next day. I told them how he punched me in the stomach and kicked me several times once I fell to the ground. He yelled at me telling me I wasn't allowed to leave. He said I would never see my family again, and I had to stay in that room.He put bars on the windows so I couldn't get out the windows and a lock on the door from the outside.He said because I was his mate, I had to stay there, it made him stronger. He wouldn't break the
Garrick's POV After finally coming to I went on a rampage. That fucking bastard! He took what's mine, that's my fucking mate! I practically tore the pack house apart, throwing things everywhere and breaking his stupid ice walls. That's how he was able to get away. My men came in but he created an ice wall around them. I had to take a fucking ax to that shit to get them out. Julia tried calming me down but it didn't work. Her effect that she used to have on me is getting weaker. We have known each other for 15 years. We've been together for the past 11 years, we got together when we were 16. I fell in love with her. Even though she wasn't my mate. I remember hoping, we both hoped and prayed that when we turned 18 we would be each other's mate, but we weren't. I promised her that she would be mine no matter what. I promised my love for her would always be, that a mate would never come between us. I told her I'd reject my mate if I ever found it. The only problem is when I fina
Reid's POV I let out of frustrated breath as I dropped my pen and sit back in my chair. I run my hands through my hair before dragging them down my face. "Fuck!" I mumble. Goddess I can't believe this happened to my little cousin. And I know Garrick is definitely going to come for him. He was so furious and was determined to get to Christian and stop us from taking him. He almost looked crazed, he looked so desperate as Noah walked out the door with Christian. He panicked and lost his shit right away. The shitty thing is Garrick isn't necessarily a bad person, at least not a bad Alpha. His pack is run decent, he's good to his pack members. the Omega's aren't treated horribly, not the best, but not horrible. They're still forced to be maids. But they're not beaten or hurt. And they are taking care of to an extent. Another problem is Garrick has a lot of connections and some of them are kind of shady. I don't know why but something deep inside tells me this is not going to lead
Damien's POVI have never seen Reid so angry before in my life. We were all nervous and scared since nothing Julian was doing was calming him down. For some reason he seemed to be getting angrier and angrier.We don't think he would have actually hurt Julian. But being that he's pregnant and wanting to be on the safe side we had Theo intervene and get Julian out of there.It was actually kind of heartbreaking to see. Julian freaked out and was desperately clinging to him for dear life as he cried. Tears streaming down his face as he screamed Reid's name over and over. Begging and pleading for us to let him go.I linked his father as soon as I stepped into the room and seen the state he was in. His father thankfully was in his office and had a sedative already in his hand. He ran in here as fast as he could. I've never seen that man moves that fast before.He jammed that needle in Reid without a hesitation, his body was still moving forward as he did it."What the hell happened?"Thadde
Finn's POVI feel myself slowly waking up. I feel the warmth of both my mates. The steady rise and fall of Maddox's chest, the sound of his heart beating under my ear. My legs tangled with Addison, her arm wrapped around me.I yawn as I wake up but pause when I hear a voice in my head."Good morning Finn."I heard the voice of my angel, so loud and clear as if he was right in front of me. This isn't the same way I talked to my wolf. I've never heard my wolf so clear."Hi."I whispered for some reason.I heard him chuckle."You know you can talk to me in your head right?""Like this?"I said after a few moments. It took me a couple tries. I tried to talk to him in my head but when I initially tried to talk to him it didn't work. I tried to talk to him like I would my wolf. But instead it felt like a hit a brick wall. Like head on! It actually kinda hurt a little.I followed his voice, almost as if he was leading me around that wall.It felt different talking to him. It wasn't the same c
Reid's POVI groan as I wake up and bring my hand to my head that's throbbing.My movements instantly startle Julian who was laying half on me. He quickly sits up, his hands go to my face as a frantically tries to make sure I'm okay.I squint at my eyes to look at him and was shocked when I seen the tears steaming down his face."Reid.... Oh goddess my Reid!"He said then threw his arms around me and buried his face in my neck as he cried.It took me a moment as I tried to rack my brain to figure out what the hell is going on. It didn't take long before it came back to me.The phone call.Shit! I almost lost control. I vaguely remember Julian desperately trying to calm me down.With my arms wrapped around him, I squeezed him tighter. I pressed a kiss to the side of his face." Oh goddess Julian, I'm so sorry I scared you!"I said feeling like a complete dick."I'm just happy you're okay. I was so scared, I couldn't calm you down. I didn't understand what was going on. That has never ha
