Chapter 207
I can see that Luna Sophie is being dragged by someone and she’s struggling hard, but she’s injured and weaker than she usually is.
I’m about to go to her when I hear Leah’s shout of warning behind me. The second wolf leaps at me, going for my throat. Argus moves to block, shoving his head down to protect his throat.
“NO!” Leah shouts and just before the wolf snaps his teeth on us, the wolf yelps in pain. At the same moment, a third shot rings out through the packhouse, and I hear Beta Lucas shout to his mate, snarling viciously as he begins tearing through attacking wolves to get to her.
I look quickly, seeing Alpha Hunter rushing to Sophie who is staring at a dead warrior at her feet and Beta Lucas who just catches his mate before her head hits the floor. Even from here, I can see that her injuries are serious.
I turn and see my mate, panting, blood covering her hands and body, her claws still embedded in the wolf that she attacked to save my life.

I shift quickly, ripping the head off the wolf who is howling in pain before pulling Leah to me and holding her tightly.
“You’re not dying either,” she says ferociously, as she holds me.
I smile, holding her more tightly.
“No, I’m not,” I tell her before taking her hand and leading her over to

where the others are.
Luna Sophie and Hunter stand by and watch as Brooklyn rushes to Beta Kinsley’s side, ordering others to get her what she needs as she quickly begins stitching her up, trying to save her life.
Sophie
I’ve never felt rage, anger, and most of all protectiveness, like I feel right now. These people have come into my pack, my home, and are trying to take my family, my life from me. If I could shift, Hedda would have ripped these assholes to shreds.
Since I can’t, Kinsley and I have been fighting hard. She’s a good, strong fighter, and a great Beta. We’ve both been fighting the Gammas that comes after me, but the Beta is the problem. I’m so thankful for those couple of sessions where Hunter had the other warriors attack us while we were fighting. If he hadn’t, I’m sure the Beta would have gotten to me by now.
I’m doing well until I feel the bond to one of my pack members, one of the women fighting inside the packhouse, snap. She’s gone and that moment of distraction is all the Beta needs to grab me and begin ripping me away from Kinsley. At the same time, I see that one of the safe rooms is about to be breached and I scream for my mate in the mind link.
“HUNTER!”
I hear Kinsley scream my name, but I’m fighting this asshole who thinks he can drag me to his Alpha, take me away from my Alpha, my mate, so I can be forced into a mate bond with a man I would never

choose to be mine. There’s no way I’m letting that happen.
A shot rings out through the packhouse, and turn briefly to see Brooklyn standing in the opening of the safe room, her smoking gun in hand. She looks like a fierce avenging angel standing there,
especially when she challenges the Gamma to come for her. He makes the mistake of doing it.
The Beta growls, yanking me again to get moving. I slash at him, adding to the multiple gashes I’ve already given him, but it’s the bullet to his shoulder that makes him jerk and finally stop.
He looks at his shoulder, then at Brooklyn as if he can’t believe she shot him. But now it’s my turn to take advantage of his distraction.
Hedda snarls, and with all my remaining strength, I pull my arms back and slam my claws into the Beta’s midsection. I have the satisfaction of watching his eyes go wide in shock as he looks down at me.
“No one will ever take me away from my mate,” I snarl before ripping his insides out. Hot blood splatters all over me, mixing with my own. I‘ ve sustained several injuries, but none were meant to kill me. Hunter was right, Joshua wanted me for himself^

“KINSLEY!” I hear Lucas shout as he races past me to catch her before her head hits the floor. Her stomach has been ripped open and I see Brooklyn push her way out of the safe room opening and begin shouting orders to those around her so she can begin sewing Kinsley. up.
“Women in the packhouse! Protect your Beta! Protect Brooklyn! Protect the breached safe room!” I shout into the room. The fighting is
