Thank you for all the love for The Beta's Mate. Hoping Sam is rescued in time. Let me know your thoughts leaving your comments or review. Next chapter update is tomorrow. Ellie xo
Josie POV “Come with me, Josie,” Tim says. “Where are the children?” I ask him. “We will return the children once I have you safely in my arms,” he replies. My skin crawls thinking about being in his arms. “I do not believe you; let Sam go, return the children and I will go with you,” I reply to him. Sam continues to fight against the rogue holding him down. It is hardly a fair fight. Two rogues are holding Sam down while the other has him in a death grip. Sarah is standing beside me, as I see her raise her hands. Leaves start swirling around all of us similar to a mini tornado. Many are trying to back away from the phenomenon but there is a barrier stopping them from leaving the circle. The rogues holding Jack back from Sam start to loosen their grips, allowing Jack to free himself and run toward the rogues holding Sam down. Jack rips one off Sam and fights him tearing the throat out of the rogue. The distractions allow Sam to shift en
Sarah POV “I will make those decisions, Jack,” I say to my mate as he tries to tell me what I can and cannot do. Jack drops Tim before we reach the dungeons taking hold of my shoulders. “You cannot be serious, Sarah. This guy may not even be legitimate. Let’s wait and see who he is before we jump on board with his crap story,” Jack snarls before turning to reach for Tim. “Do not tell me what I can and cannot do,” I reply surprising him. Jack turns with a smirk on his face. “I am all for women power and world peace, sweetheart, but when it comes to you and your safety, you can damn well bet that I will be chiming in my two cents worth,” Jack replies. He reaches for Tim tossing him effortlessly over his shoulder. We continue walking as Matt is now being carried by Sam. “Did you or did you not just hear him admit to leaving you to rot in that dungeon?” Jack demands angrily. “Or perhaps the fact that they left you there for a month, does not
Josie POV I overheard Sam speaking with Adam. I knew things were complicated for us, I just wish I had not been such a fuck up and rejected him the first time. This would all be different. Or maybe it would not be different. Regardless, I had to accept that we had some more trials to deal with. Sam moves forward pulling me into his arms. “We will get through this babe,” he promises me as he rubs my back slowly. I lean closer into him, “I hope so,” I whisper. “Do not give up, Josie, promise me you will not do anything rash,” Sam requests leaning back to look me in the eyes. “I promise,” I reply with a small smile. “So, what is wrong?” I ask with hesitation. Did I really want to know? Sam explained to me that we needed Miranda to help with the breaking of the bond before we killed Tim. Sam hoped she would come tomorrow, now that they would know we have him. “We need to focus on the end prize, Josie; being together,” he says co
Alpha Lucas The pain is gut wrenching. I cannot believe I am free of the dungeons. I expect to wake up and this all be a dream. I had lost full connection with my wolf, Ashton, at some point during my rescue. I could feel him at the furthest point of my mind and prayed to the Moon Goddess he would hold on. Taking a deep breath, I open my eyes and turn my head slowly. It is not a dream. I see my beautiful sister Sarah; although she is with a man I barely recognize. He was familiar but I could not remember why. Suddenly they both look at me and are surprised to see my eyes open. Remembering the mind-link call that the pups had been returned is what originally pulled me from my healing slumber, “Are they okay?” I ask hoarsely. My throat was sore and scratchy. Sarah jumped up reaching for a glass of water with a straw in it. She gave me a couple sips before pulling it away from me. I growl softly, but she replies, “Too much will make you s
Sam POV I have my arm tossed around Josie’s waist as she lays naked on the bed face down. I find her sleep patterns cute to observe. She usually starts off in my arms but eventually pushes out of them to lay on her front dragging my arm around her. She always wants to be touching me, which is one of the many things I love about her. Jack had advised me that Alpha Lucas had woken up last night briefly but was resting again. We would check in first thing this morning with them to see what he knew or remembered. Josie started to stir, and I leaned forward kissing her back. She moans and pushes back into my arms. I wrap my arms around her body and hold her tightly to me. “Good morning baby,” I murmur in her ear. She semi growls as I have learned she is not a morning person willingly. She will get up and go but her first choice is to stay in bed longer. And I admit I quite enjoy that little trait she has. But for now, we are both
Josie POV I was anxious now that Miranda was finally here. I wondered what she could tell me since I had seen her last. Moving forward, Miranda surprised me by hugging me. “Let’s stay positive, Josie; I have a better understanding of what we are up against. My goal today is to break any ties that exist between you and Tim,” she says with the voice of someone making a promise. I felt a little ray of hope cross over me as I embraced the woman tighter in my arms. I had never been one to hug, but since meeting these people I understood what it meant to draw on one another’s strength through connection. Stepping back, Miranda says, “Now let’s go get you unconnected,” she says taking my hand with a smile. I look at Sam and see the big smile he is sporting. I smile back at him hoping we will both still be smiling at the end of the day. “I currently have a spell on Tim, so he cannot communicate with anyone outside,” Sarah offers to Miranda. “That
Josie POV I chew my bottom lip as I watch Miranda’s eyes glaze over. Sarah is standing guard of Tim to ensure nothing happens to the spell she has on him. Miranda looks intense as I stand there feeling helpless as I can do nothing but watch. I feel arms wrap around my waist, “What did we miss?” Sam asks quietly. “So far, Tim and I are attached at the heart. It is going to be tough to remove, I may pass out,” I murmur to him not wanting to tell him the full truth. I feel him tense beside me, “This is not worth it Josie,” he whispers, “We will figure something out,” he adds. “It is the only way, Sam; I need to be rid of him once and for all,” I reply. Rick looks at both of us. “She knows what she is doing and if she says she can do it, she can do it,” he offers to us both. Nodding, I lean back into Sam’s arms and wait. I see Miranda starting to sway. Rick moves closer to her wrapping his arms around her waist. Sam asks Jack to get a coupl
Sarah POV We were at a tense point in trying to remove the last cords. They were so tightly twined we were desperately trying to undo them. Before we could cut the cord, we had to make sure it was the one connecting both of them. If we cut them prematurely, we could in fact tie them together for life even stronger than they felt now. I glanced up and saw the entity cutting through our barrier quite quickly. I threw up another barrier but heard the laughter come from the bitch. “You cannot keep up with me, little witch,” she spews. Both Miranda and I are shocked that we hear the female come through to us. Miranda looks more intensely toward the entity and releases the cords to fight the female. They embark on a firestorm between one another. I watch them both leave Tim’s body. I jump out of Tim’s body as well, ensuring I keep the barrier spell on him tightly in the event something happens. I watch the two women, now fighting e
