Chapter 108: Fear and Anxiety Lucas

When Luna Sophie said that she and Kinsley may be outside the safe rooms during the war, I felt fear like I've never felt before.

'What the f**k, Hunter?' I asked him in the mind link.

I had watched him battle with himself, listening to his mate and recognizing that while he doesn't want her outside a safe room any more than I want Kinsley and my pup out, Sophie is right. How can we, as leaders, choose to leave another pregnant woman out of a safe room while our mates are tucked safely inside.

That doesn't mean that my wolf, Dario, isn't thrashing around in my head at the thought of our mate and pup being unprotected.

I hold my tongue, waiting while Luna Sophie finishes talking to the group and until Kinsley finishes talking to the people who have questions before I pull her aside.

"I know what you're going to say, Lucas," she begins.

"What am I going to say, Kinsley?"

"That you want me in a safe room."

"You're right, I absolutely do. You can't shift, you're carrying my pup, and for f**k's sake, Kins, I just got you, truly got you," I say, pulling her against me as I fight tears. I've worked so hard to overcome the problems we suffered from her public claiming. I

can't stomach the thought of losing her now, not after everything that we've been through to get here.

"I don't like it either, Lucas. I don't want to lose you or our pup. I love you, and I love him."

Him, my son. We only recently found out that we're having a boy. I haven't even had a chance to tell Hunter yet.

"I don't know how to keep you safe, Kinsley. If you're not in a safe room...." my throat tightens up. I'll be on the front lines with Hunter. I wouldn't want it any other way. We're the leaders of this pack and that's what leaders do. But I know there will be more warriors attacking than we can keep out of the packhouse and when they come, Kinsley will be here, and I'll be out there.

"I know how to fight, Lucas. Sophie and I have already begun collecting weapons for those of us who will be unable to shift, but you didn't see the number of young mothers who volunteered to fight. It was incredible. I hate it, because I don't want orphaned pups in our pack, but there's a strong possibility that I'll be in a safe room. It all depends on who arrives today and where we can put them. Sophie already told me that I get a spot in a safe room before her. She's asking Brooklyn to be a Lead in one safe room, and if I get a spot, I'll be the Lead in a second room. But just like Sophie said, how can I be a leader and push another pregnant woman out to fight when I'm tucked away safely behind locked doors?"

hate it with my heart. Hunter's mind is swirling with fear and ways to make sure that Sophie is safe. Whatever he comes up with, I want you involved
