Chapter 26

Quinn

"What do you mean you won't get me a passport?" I growl at the Storm River Beta.

"I'm sorry Luna but the Alpha will have my head if I were to have any part in sending you into the lion's den!" Carter states as he shakes his head, "If anyone should go, it's me and Beta Spencer."

I scoff, "And who the fuck is going to protect you when they use their magic?"

"Come on Quinn, don't put me in this position, please!" the Beta begs.

"And don't put me in the position to have to use my com- mand on you! I'm going and that's final!" I growl.

Carter glares at me, "Fine, but you had better protect me when Declan comes back and tries taking my head for putting his Luna and Queen in the line of fire!"

I roll my eyes, "You're exaggerating just a little bit."

"Are you fucking serious right now, Quinn? Declan has been head over heels in love with you since you turned eigh- teen. You don't know what it did to him when Lila fucked with him and then when you got with Gavin. He held on to hope, though, and now that he has you, he will take out anything and anyone who puts you in danger."

I stare at the Beta, amazed at how passionate he is about all of this, "I'm sorry Carter, I'm not trying to get you into trou- ble, I swear, but we all know that I am the only hope in bring- ing back mine and your sister's mate."

"At what expense, though, Quinn? You know damn well that Declan would give his life for you. He wouldn't survive losing you."
