When Beta Kier raced into the hospital carrying a bloody and unconscious Kennedy, my heart tightened. This is twice my daughters‘ lives have been at risk, only this time, there is no one else to save her but me.

“Bring her in here,” I tell him, rushing into one of the surgery rooms. Now that she’s gotten more supplies, I feel confident that I have what I need to treat anyone who walks through those doors.

“Tell me what happened,” I say as I begin looking her over. She’s bleeding from multiple head wounds and other places on her body. Echo must be weak if she’s not healing her.

“I’m not exactly sure, Luna. We went to Jasper’s pack and he wasn’t there. We searched everywhere but Jasper hadn’t taken her there. While Alphas Warren and Connor dealt with the people in the safe rooms, we raced to Alpha Brogan’s pack.”

I’m surprised that Quirin left the innocents alive. His father never did.

“He wasn’t going to, but your mate intervened. I’m glad he did. I didn’t like the idea of killing omegas and pups,” he says, making me realize I spoke out loud.

“Kennedy wouldn’t have liked that either.”

“That’s what Alpha Warren told him and it worked. So, we raced to Alpha Brogan’s pack and about halfway there, Alpha asked if any of us were getting a faint link. Maybe it’s because they’re mates, or because he’s an Alpha, but it took us longer to realize that we were close enough to Luna Kennedy to pick up the mind link. When we did, we realized she had gotten away from the others and was being hunted by both Alphas and Alpha Brogan’s warriors.”

“My daughter is fast,” I say, wondering how Echo even managed to shift with the injuries I’m seeing. She would have had to pull on all her strength to do so. Between that and the injuries that aren’t healing, I’m sure Echo has gone silent.

‘Annika, we’re not letting our daughters die on us.’

I feel my wolf reaching out in the mind link, searching for even the faintest link to Echo. When she finds it, she mentally

latches on.

‘Our daughters aren’t going anywhere,‘ she growls softly. I let her focus on Echo while I focus on Kennedy.

“What of Alpha Jasper?” I ask.

“Alpha was attacking him when I left,” Kier says.

“And Alpha Brogan?” I ask as I wash the largest gash that Kennedy has before starting to stitch her up.
