Bad Love an Alpha’s Regret by Elise Sinclair

Chapter 230

The slaug hter I find at the cabin is worse than the carnage I left behind at the factory where we fought Tobin and his men.

All of the guys I left behind to protect the property are dead.

Every single one of them.

Starting with the guys manning the gate and outer perimeter, all the way up the mountain to the cabin itself.

My heart feels like it’s being slowly torn out of my chest as I desperately run into the cabin, only to find more of the same.

My dead men, and their last line of defense.
