I had been gone too long when I got the brief respite in her arms and then, I was torn away and brought back to the dark reality that had been forced upon us.

The only reason I was out here in the forest sleeping on the ground is that I wanted to put this mangy dog down for good. Then I’d go home to my wife and the baby she carried and live the life this bastard so desperately wanted.

“I want this camp for the captured prisoners complex by the end of the week Darren,” I explained over the phone.

We were getting more and more of their fallen warriors and I wanted them all held in one spot.

Maybe if he truly was stupid he’d try and break them out. Then I’d get to kill him and go home.

He must be relishing knowing I had been pulled away from her again. He probably would have gone for her if her

brother wasn’t there.

Alpha blood like theirs had a particular effect on the wolves around them. They radiated their strength and it was obvious to other wolves like strong scent or echolocation. We just knew they were there and they were the strongest.

Alphas did that in general and I did that better than most but they had a golden lineage. For the past six generations, Annette’s family had been born of two alphas. She was a homing beacon of authority. Any wolf in a ten–mile radius knew someone powerfully strong was nearby.

That’s why she was so sought after and no doubt why a petty scuffle over a sigmas death has been stretched out so long. No doubt they knew who my mate was and no doubt they saw her as an eye for an eye, and a way to raise their

status.

That’s why I swallowed my pride and called her father. I wanted him to realize how badly he fucked up by threatening her. So I called her dad and told him I needed Charlie and I needed someone with experience to protect my pack and

the others.

“You will finish this I hope,” he spoke calmly over the phone. “I’ve put up with a lot because you are her soulmate a gift from the goddess to my baby girl. But….if I have to seat away a fly like this for you I won’t be able to entrust her protection to you,” he explained to me. O

Annoyed he even questioned my ability to protect her I wanted to tell him to stay home but I needed to think of my

family.

“I’ll take care of him I swear sir,” I vowed to him.

I hadn’t beaten him that day we fought. He had surrendered for her sake and because we were soulmates, but I understood that if he had to take care of this for me I was no man. He knew what she deserved, Annette deserved a man that could shelter her from anything. I would be that.
