Stronger by Ang Chris

Chapter 43

It has felt d*rty since the first night. The scent was supposed to be old and concealed but instead it was strong and poignant. We doubled back two days ago tracking the scent from afar. I felt like we were being trapped.

Grayson didn’t like the direction this was heading in, and now my gut told me the same thing. Luna Lilianna agreed instantly to double back and take a far away stance on the scent, so I knew she was as uneasy as I was.

I also was having Beck the warrior from Waxing Pride follow behind us to see if there was a tracker on us.

was surprised the Alpha allowed me to come along. This mission was far more personal than any other I had been on. This pack was the home of the man who assaulted my sister.

He had hunted Ella like prey and attempted a heinous act in her own home. I can still smell her tears and blood mixed together when she got to my house safely..

She had taken a knife and sliced him down the face taking out one of his eyes and then she stabbed him in the

stomach.

The scratches on her, my sister. My blood. She was mine to protect until she was bound. The failure I felt knowing I had left her to that monster.

I saw how it haunted her, I saw how her face sl*ps away every once in a while. The way she has to pull herself back to reality.

The day the intruder came I knew the fear that was swallowing her whole. I saw it choking her from the inside out.

The goddess answered my prayers with our Luna. Annette let Ell cry and distract herself and she gave her a safe haven in her own home. She had called for me to come and she let me hold my sister in front of her with no judgement.

Now here the same stench clawing at my nostrils the gas and woods of different lands. They would want nothing of

If they want Ella my family, my blood, I would rip them apart.

But there was another fear….

They would want Luna. My Alpha and Luna had been bound but she could still bear a pup to any enough to try and forcefully breed her.
