Chapter 320

I love every one of these people and the thought of Zahn’s pack members hurting them to get to me…well, it makes me want to agree to leave with him. And if I thought he’d leave it at that. I might do it. But I know Alpha Zahn. He holds grudges, he doesn’t let things go. He might pretend that he’s trying to make changes, but I’ve seen the real person that he is. He’s not sorry that he caught me, stripped me bare, raped me, and marked me in front of his pack members. He feels that it’s his right as an Alpha. He has no remorse at all. The only remorse that he has is that I absolutely refuse to have sex with him. And since Cassidy has been absent, and I’ve been so broken, he can’t exactly force himself on me without possibly killing me.

It’s why I know that he was excited to hear that Cassidy is healing me. It’s not because he’s happy that I’m healing. It’s because he wants his damn heir. If I’m healed, and Cassidy is present, there’s nothing to stop him from raping me until I get pregnant.

What he didn’t expect was Sophie. I guess he also didn’t expect Alpha Hunter to be the kind of man who actually cares about his mate and Luna, giving her a place in the pack that is more than just a title. He truly lets her rule the pack beside him as an equal, something Zahn would never do. My role is to give him an heir, end of story

So, coming here was merely a ploy to make others think he cared and then he’d been as shocked as I was when they actually followed through on their words and gave me back control of my life and my decisions.

And now, I’ve realized how true Brooklyn’s words were. This pack is special, almost magical in its cohesiveness. Everyone really does care about each other and Zahn’s an idiot for not seeing how strong it makes them

Sandy wraps her arms around me. She’s a strong woman to have survived the loss of her mate, someone she absolutely adored. But I know she did it for her pup, her daughter, Samantha, who is a teenager. She told me that she couldn’t leave her daughter alone in this world with no family. So, she survived, and every day is a struggle for her, but every day she gets up and makes the most of her life. She says she does it for her mate so he can continue to be proud of her as he watches over her from the Moon Goddess’ realm.

“We’re a strong pack, Jocelyn. And we know they’re coming. Alpha Zahn doesn’t know that we know and that give us the advantage. No one will get hurt, well, not from our pack anyway.” she says fiercely. She still has a warrior’s spirit, or maybe the spirit of her mate resides in her now I hope that one day, I can tough like Sandy is

Chapter 320

“I know, I just…I care about all of you so much. You’ve all done so much to help me to protect me, to heal me. And I don’t just mean my body,” I say.

“I know. There’s a lot of emotional and mental healing that has to happen too. Around here, we understand that very well.”

“I know you do. It’s why I feel a kindred spirit with all of you here. We’re all healing from something, and everyone understands that, accepts that we’ll have good days and bad days.”

“We’re a family. That’s what families do, they support each other, protect each other, and love each other.”

She nods her head. “Come back out to the living room. Gamma Penny is here. She’s apparently your personal guard until the battle is done.”

Gamma Penny. That’s another first for me. Not only is she a woman, the first female Gamma, but she’s also underage. The woman was on the run, so she understands some of what I’ve been through. But she’s tough as nails. Another woman for me to look up to and strive to be like.

“Jocelyn, I want you to know that I’ll keep you safe. I know I’m underage but…”

“It’s not that. Truly. I’m sure that you’ve earned your spot as the Gamma. I’ve seen the respect that the other pack members have for you. My fear is for the others who may be injured. I’m protected, but what about them?”
