The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323

I smile, looking at her, her eyes glimmering in the dark with the passion of her words.

“Have I told you how much I love you today?” I ask her.

She huffs out her breath. Then gives me a very seductive look. “Not nearly enough.”

I’m just about to lean down and start something with my mate that will distract me for at least an hour when the phone rings.

I turn, snatching it off the nightstand, checking the caller ID before answering.

“Kinsley?” I answer, hearing controlled chaos in the background.

“They’re here, Alpha ”

I jump to my feet. “Do you need me?”

“We’re good. We’ve almost got everyone in the safe rooms and the warriors are ready. We’ll tear Zahn’s pack members to shreds,” she snarls

“I want a call as soon as it’s done, Kinsley

“Yes, Alpha,” she says. When she hangs up, the sound of commotion does too, leaving me in a

very quiet room.

“Come hold me, Hunter. We’ll wait together,” my mate says.

I turn and look at her over my shoulder, struggling with the feeling of not being a good Alpha again

“Hunter,” she says more insistently, tapping the bed beside her.

I lean back against the headrest, pulling my mate against my body as I feel her sending soothing waves of love to me.

“I’ve never felt so helpless, Sophie.” I say. She’s the only person in the world I can be this honest

When we return tomorrow, we can let them feel how proud we are of them that they were able to protect each other without either of us there. Like I said before, they’re only this strong because you’ve made them this strong.”

“We’ve made them this strong, Sophie. The pack wasn’t this strong before you arrived.”

“Maybe they just needed some incentive,” my mate says, chuckling.

“I really do love you, Sophie. Thank you for helping me to find some level of peace with this.”

“Isn’t that what a good Luna does, my mate?”

“Yes, and so much more.”

It’s less time than I thought it would take before my phone rings again. I look at the time, two am,

before I look at the caller ID.

“Lucas?”

“Alpha, the pack is secure,” he says, and I can hear the fury of battle still in his voice.

“Jocelyn?” I ask, knowing that would have been Zahn’s primary target.

“Jocelyn is safe.”

“Zahn?”

He snarls. “Zahn is unconscious in our cells.

I smile. “Who knocked him out?”

I can almost feel Lucas relaxing through the phone. “I’m not sure yet, but I think Brutus and William will say it was a tie.”

“Injuries?” I ask.

“We’re still getting the list, but so far, only minor injuries.”

“Zahn’s pack?”

“Ripped to shreds,” he growls.

“Get everyone settled and get some sleep. We can burn the bodies tomorrow when I get home
