Jenna POV I gasp as Adam’s eyes open wide. He simply stares at the ceiling as if not believing he is awake. I stand and move closer to Adam touching his face. He slowly turns to me, and I see tears in his eyes. “Am I really awake?” he asks tentatively. As if he has had this dream multiple times already. I can feel tears rolling down my cheeks. Nodding, I move forward and kiss Adam’s lips. He lifts his hand pushing the hair out of my face. “Red, I thought I would never see you again,” he whispers. I move to get him a glass of water, allowing him to take a couple sips before removing the glass. “I was terrified,” I reply to him as I move closer to wrap my arms awkwardly around his body. He tries to pull me up beside him. “Just wait babe, I need to get the doctor to unhook you,” I say to him. “Do not call anyone in yet. I just want to spend my time with you, Jenna,” Adam says as he simply stares at me. “How do you feel?” I ask.
Josie POV “I always prefer the hard way,” the cocky bastard replies. “Good enough,” I reply. “What was your mission?” I ask. The man struggles but smiles as he defies my request. He does not realize I had not put a push behind my question. “I said what was your mission when you came here a week ago?” I demand. I see sweat forming on the man’s forehead as he struggles to defy my demand. “We were here for you,” he spits out. “Why?” I ask although I have heard the answer before. “You hold the power; you are the key,” he replies angrily. His face is already red with frustration. “Why take Jenna then?” I ask. He smirks at me, “Because we know you. You would come running and then we would have the healer and the Rogue Queen,” he says with a laugh. “You are so obvious. You are not a team player; you always go off or try to go off on your own. It would only be a matter of time before you would try to trade yourself or simply come to get her and
Sam POV We have been strategizing for hours and we continue to come to the same conclusion. All roads leading to the same result. Daniel. Using Daniel to gain access to the leader. But how we would access Daniel is really proving to be our bigger challenge. Looking at everyone around the table, “We need to bring Lucas in on this,” I suggest as I watch Josie yawn for the third time in a row. Adam looked beat; Jenna was getting frustrated as the conversations continued around her. “Yes, we do. And we cannot simply talk about the plan on the phone. Call him and set up a meeting for a week from today,” Jenna says snippily. Adam looks tiredly at Jenna, “Red, you know we cannot wait that long,” he says as he looks at me. “See if Lucas can be here tomorrow,” Adam says as he slowly stands. I watch Adam and Jenna shuffle off to the door. “We will have some food brought up to you,” Josie says as they walk out the door. “Thank you,” Jenna replies as
Josie POV “Who is the leader of this group?” I ask first. “I do not know,” Luna Ashley replies. “How can you not know?” I ask. “They keep erasing my memories,” Luna Ashley replies sounding tormented. “Why?” I ask. “They do not want me to remember who the leader is,” Ashley replies sounding frustrated. “Who erases your memories?” I ask curiously. “The witch; she has the power,” she replies. “Then why do they want me?” I ask confused. “You are the most powerful wolf, Josie. If they get you, they will be able to control all wolves,” she says almost whispering like she does not want anyone to know. Sam is standing beside me, but it is like she does not see him. She is tunnel-visioned on me. “You are so beautiful Josie. I wish things had been different for us,” she says as she bends over in pain once again. “Why?” I ask. “Because I always wanted to be your mom. You and Eric were my first pups,” she says with tears in her eyes. “
Josie POV “How do you feel?” I ask Sarah while dropping off some paperwork the next morning. Alpha Lucas was coming for early afternoon, so we had time to get a few things done. Sighing, Sarah replies, “I feel fine. Like better than fine. I feel like I should be up and moving but Jenna says I need a couple more weeks.”. Giving Sarah a look of pity, “I feel for you. I am not sure I would handle it as well as you have been,” I reply. “Truth is I am not handling it well at all. I have been ripping Jack’s head off every chance I get. I would not be surprised if he asks the Moon Goddess for a new mate,” Sarah says as tears fill her eyes. I move over and wrap my arms around her shoulders, “Do not be silly. Jack understands that you are simply ready to be off bedrest. He loves you, silly woman,” I say to her. She smiles at me wiping away her tears. “I know but I feel terrible for how I have been treating him,” she replies. “Tell him.
Josie POV “Oh my Goddess,” Jenna whispers. I nod, “Yes, the chip in my brain. I know we are not the only ones who know about it,” I reply as I look to Sam. Sam looks like his heart is in his mouth. “Too fucking bad. Nobody is digging around in your brain trying to retrieve information from it. I do not care who it fucking incriminates,” Sam swears. “No but it would be a lot easier if I were dead now, wouldn’t it?” I ask him. Shaking his head, Sam pulls me into his lap, and I let him. It saddens me to think this could be the missing key to what everyone is looking for. Everyone around the room is looking at us with sadness reflected in their eyes. “What if there was a way to access the data without you dying?” Miranda asks. “Well, that would be a hell of a lot better than the alternative,” Jack says tightly. There is a high level of tension in the room. I feel the love of everyone in the room for me and it is overwhelming to know that I
Sam POV Adam sweeps Jenna up in his arms as Jenna lets out a pained moan. “How long?” Adam says tersely to Jenna. Not even pretending to not know what he is asking, “A few hours now,” she says as she breathes through a wave of pain. “Fuck Jenna!” Adam says as we run out of the dungeons. “Do not yell at me Adam! I am going to be giving birth in hopefully a few hours. The last thing I need is being pissed off at you,” Jenna says angrily as she is jostled toward the Pack hospital in Adam’s arms. “And I can walk! It would be good to help push the birth along,” she says as Adam stops in mid stride. “Are you sure?” he asks as Jenna wiggles from his arms. “Of course, I am sure, I am a doctor for Goddess’s sake,” Jenna mutters as she starts to slowly walk towards the Pack hospital. She walks for a couple minutes before she is bent over in pain again. The wave subsides and she starts to move again. She does this a few more times before Adam mutters
Sarah POV Being stuck in this bed while everything was happening around me was infuriating. I knew things were happening and everyone was being great keeping me in the loop; however, finding things out after the facts was killing me. Not being able to help or provide support was difficult to tolerate. As I lay there waiting for Jack to return with food, I contemplated getting up. Just for a few minutes. But I knew better. I was simply frustrated at the waiting. At my last check-up both Jenna and the Obstetrician indicated that I was doing extremely well. That was promising and they both agreed it was. Even if I get off a bed rest, I would still be limited to what I could do. I would need to take caution with a lot of things, but at least I would be able to go to the washroom on my own and have a shower on my own. I turned my frown into a smile as Jack walks into our suite. He knew I was frustrated, and he was getting frustrated not being ab
