Chapter 62

Charlie

After checking on Noelle and leaving the hospital, I called Harold to tell him about Yara being taken and Brady running home. He told me he’d send Franklin and his warriors after Brady and asked if we needed Savannah.

“Honestly, I don’t think she’ll make it on time. Yara’s guard was shot with silver. If Noelle can’t save him, he won’t live long enough for Savannah to get here.” I told him.

“Beta, we have Alpha Quinton and his warriors trapped in the cell block, Haynes says in the mind link.

“Hold them there. I’m on my way

“Let me know if you need anything. Should we send a search party for your Luna?” Harold asks

“Alpha Warren is out hunting Simon down now. If we need help, I’ll let you know. Thank you, Alpha.”

“It’s what allies do, Beta. I’m glad to know that we can help.”

I hang up as I get to the cells, walking down the stairs and hearing the crying of the omegas, pups and other prisoners. I also hear the sound of their warrior mates trying to soothe them. The smell of fear is mixed with burning flesh which lets me know the warriors have tried to reach through the cells to touch their mates and pups.

Warren and I didn’t talk about it, but he told these people that they weren’t prisoners. What’s left of Quinton’s pack will be weak, especially without their Alpha. As I go down the stairs to the cells, I make a decision that I hope Warren will agree

with.

When I get to the bottom of the stairs, I look, seeing warriors pressed as close as the silver bars will allow them to be, some having taken off their shirts and wrapping them around their arms so they can touch their scared mates or pups.

At the end of the cellblock is Quinton, standing tall outside the cell with his son and Luna. While the son is standing us close to his father as possible, the Luna remains seated away from both of them.

I look at Quinton. “What’s it going to be?”

“A trade. My son is a pup. Me for him,” Quinton says immediately.

“No dad!” Quirin says.
