Chapter 24

Chapter Twenty-Four

I know that she is going to sleep fora while, she unloaded a lot of emotional baggage that she has kept locked away for a long time. That kind of emotional release tends to be exhausting both physically and mentally. I made sure that she was secure in the bed before I headed out assess the damage of tonight. ~

 

Theo let me know that he is outside the manor house by the back door. I take the back stairs down, retracing my steps from this morning.

Now here I am with my mate upstairs, ready to wage war on those that have hurt her.

 

Stepping outside I take a deep inhale of the night air. I love the cool crisp smell of the dirt, pine needles, and fall scents. Theo is standing close to the door and I see that Marcus is with him.

I made it clear to him this afternoon when he signed the contracts that she was mine, and that no one was to harm her. Evidently he failed to pass along the information to his pack.” It is hard admitting the truth to my friends. As an Alpha I am supposed to think three steps ahead of everyone.
