Chapter 27 

Everest POV 

I walked around the front porch, pacing back and forth. One of our scouts, a strong wolf named Jackson from one of the stronger wolf packs, infiltrated the group of Lycans and Rouge Wolves. He was relaying that they entered the human town that we passed through hours ago. They were maybe two 

hours out at the most. 

He was easy to spot in a crowd with his unique black and grey fur that swirled together almost perfectly. He had a heart marking on his back leg and it made him stand out and easy to spot when s**t hits the fan. I kept the link open with him, as he tried to stay close to her. She looks fine and he can feel her Lycan is strong. 

This made me happy, she hasn’t been harmed physically, that he can tell. Mentally is another story, won’t know until we were back together. I swore to myself that I would make sure she was safe and better protected for the rest of her life. 

I kicked myself every moment I spent without her, regretting that I wasn’t with her. I know that I had other duties to tend to and meetings I had that day. Jameson reminded me constantly that I can’t be everywhere and that no matter what, we aren’t a match for a bullet to the brain. Even if this were true, still blamed myself. 

I continued to pace back and forth when Jameson walked out onto the porch. “You okay?” His hands slipped into his pockets as he stood in front of the screen door. 

“I’ll be okay when I lay eyes on her and she is safe in my arms.” I walked over to him and we walked out into the yard. 

“How is Amber?” 

“She is with Miranda and Claire talking strategies on what is going on.” He sat down on the steps. “We are going to get our Queen back Everest and that little piece of crap is going to get what he deserves when this is all said and done. I can still see that you’re blaming yourself. It is written all over your face.” He frowned over at me and shook his head. 

“Yes, he will pay.” I sat next to him. “Does Amber still blame herself?” 

“I think she does.” He sighed. 

“I really wish she wouldn’t. She nearly died herself trying to protect her.” I looked out at the yard. “It is very hard to not blame yourself when you look back and think of things you could have done better. I could of done better Jameson. I could of done more. We knew she thought she saw someone and no one could catch a trail. We, my father and myself, marked it off as her seeing things.
