Chapter 319

**

Josie's POV **

As soon as all the kids are in school, Deacon, Axel, me and Mason head to meet with Raff. He updates us on what they discovered from the latest batch of rogues we had brought in. Only two of the adults survived our ambush; Unfortunately, Mandy is one of them, but at least she will spend the rest of her life in prison.

I'm not usually so comfortable with killing people, but sometimes it's kill or be killed, and I'm okay with that. Mandy deserved to die after what she had done to Luke though, after she had nearly taken him from us, she is one I'd kill without

remorse.

Raff and his men think they have apprehended the majority of the rogues after Mandy and another guy gave them intel on the locations where the others were staying. Over thirty children and teens have been rescued and are being placed with families across the realm.

I feel a little guilty that we weren't around to help capture the rogues and bring the kids in, but my own family is my priority, and that includes my dad. We head to the infirmary to visit him and his face lights up when he sees

"Josie, I'm so glad to see you. I heard what happened with Luke, and I wanted to help, but they've got me locked down in here,” he says, motioning to the chain that is wrapped around one of his wrists and bolted to the wall.

"Why are you chained?" I ask, anger bubbling in my gut.

"Don't fret over it. I am technically still a prisoner, they're just doing their jobs," Robert says as I look around to find someone to unchain him.

"I'll see what I can do," Deacon says, squeezing my shoulder reassuringly before leaving to talk to someone in charge.

"How are you feeling?" I ask, pushing my anger down for the time being.

"I'm good. They're treating me well and have been doing two healing sessions a day. They say it will increase when they've finished treating all the kids they've been bringing in from the human realm. I'm so glad so many have been rescued. How is Harper doing?"
