The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206

“NO!” I scream, just as a shot rings out through the packhouse. The Gamma turns, seeing his fellow warrior lying dead on the ground. He shifts, snarling at Brooklyn who is standing in the opening of the breached safe room, the gun in her hand still smoking.

“Come at me. I dare you,” she says, her voice steady and confident, the gun in her hand unwavering. When the Gamma takes a step, she doesn’t hesitate to kill him too.

I turn, needing to focus on protecting Sophie, but then I turn back to Brooklyn.

“Protect Sophie!” I say to her. She begins looking around trying to find where she is, and I point. Brooklyn aims her gun, and fires again. She doesn’t kill the Beta, but the bullet, the silver bullet, lodges into his shoulder.

“What the fuck!” he roars and just like with me, his moment of distraction is all Sophie needs. Her claws slam into his stomach, slicing him open as she grips his internal organs.

“How dare you come into my pack, my home, and try to hurt my family,” she snarls. I watch his eyes go wide before she rips his insides out, leaving a trail of blood and guts hanging from her hands. The Beta’s mouth opens and closes before he falls to the floor.

At least I think he falls to the floor. I feel my own body jolt, pain shooting up from my knees, as I realize that I just collapsed to the

floor, my head becoming light. I wrap my arms around my stomach, needing to protect my pup. I can feel that my stomach is soaked with blood.

From somewhere far away, I hear someone calling to me, but I’m too lightheaded to respond before collapse into unconsciousness.

Brutus POV

I stayed as close as I could to the packhouse, wanting to be near Leah in case she needed me. She’s not a fighter, and she’s definitely not a killer. It’s why I told her how she could maim these warriors without killing them. I’m not sure she would be able to deliver the killing blow, and I wouldn’t want her to. I love her sweet innocence, and I don’t want her to lose that because some Alpha decided to be pissed because he was a bad mate, and his Luna left him.

So, I stay close, needing to be here for her.

There are many more fighters attacking us than I expected. I know that Alpha Joshua took over his father–in–law’s pack, and I’m guessing he’s brought every warrior from both packs with him to attack.

I keep my mind link open with Leah as I begin fighting. I’m a big man, and Argus is a big wolf, so we usually have the upper hand in a fight. I’m not surprised when the attacking warriors begin coming at me two at a time, but that’s how Alpha Hunter has always trained me, as if I was an Alpha and would have to fight more than one wolf at a time.

I keep killing, but they just keep coming. I know I’m covered in blood

and guts when I hear the sound that makes my heart nearly stop beating. Leah’s cry of pain.

With renewed energy, Argus begins slashing through the warriors around us, fighting to get to his mate who needs us. When we finally make our way inside the packhouse, I’m shocked to see how many warriors made it through. Every one of the teams of fighters that are in the packhouse are taking on more than two wolves and when I look, I can see that Leah has been backed against a wall by two wolves, her partner dead on the floor.

I have a moment of pride to see how many wolves and men are lying on the floor, dying from punctures to their lungs and throats, just like I taught her. Then, Argus sees red, and leaps at wolves who are attacking our mate. He pulls one away, putting himself between Leah and this wolf. Both wolves turn on me as I’d hoped they would and Argus moves back until Leah grabs his tail, letting us know that she’s okay.

They come at him and Argus fights hard, protecting his mate. He’s willing to die for her, but these two wolves are nothing.

When the shot rings out in the packhouse, the sound hurts my ears, making Argus shake his head, trying to refocus.

“BROOKLYN!” Leah screams and I feel her move away from me.

“Protect Sophie!” I hear Beta Kinsley shout as we push Leah back against the wall. Argus nearly rips one of the wolves in half, terrified that he’ll get to Leah, before turning our attention to what’s happening in the direction that Beta Kinsley shouted.
