Chapter 418
I shut off the link as I step outside into the raging storm. Sure enough, after walking ten feet we run into the dense forest that borders alpha’s land. I can faintly smell where he and his security team have marked it out. I train my eyes to the ground as we start picking our way through the dense foliage. Madisyn changes from holding my hand to holding onto my pants pocket as I need my left hand to keep my balance working through the brush.
We’re picking our way through slowly enough that I know it’s going to take several hours for us to get anywhere. I’m struggling to maintain my focus, causing us to stop every few minutes. If it wasn’t for the girls calling my name, reminding me of why I fight, I likely would have allowed myself to go unconscious already.
‘Cole?‘ I can hear Jamie call through the link as we step out into a small clearing
‘Stay where you are. You’ve gotten off course but in a good way. You found the to the pack house.‘ Jamie explains in a hurry but I struggle to comprehend.

I look around slowly, trying to locate a tree to lean against as my vision blurs from the rain and growing pressure in my head.
“Cole, we have to keep going.” Madisyn’s voice pierces through the rain but I can’t do much more

“Cole please.” She whines as she tugs on my pocket.
I push myself up off the tree and start following the path we had found, completely forgetting what
Jamie said about the path we are on.

A feminine voice I haven’t heard before calls out to me. I can’t help my instincts and immediately
grab hold of Madisyn who, in turn, grabs my leg.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you. I’m just a better runner than Jamie is. My name is Micayla.
I’m Jamie’s mate.”
She speaks easily through her breathlessness from running. I can hear another set of feet approaching before slowing down. The classic huffing and puffing of a good run catching up with my
best friend.
“Damn, man. What the hell happened?”
Hearing his voice calms my nerves only to yelp harshly with the booming thunder that’s been silent since we left the cave. His hand barely touches my broken arm as he places his other under my nose.

“Breath Cole, I know you can hear my voice but I also know you won’t let me give the girls to
W Micayla without verifying my scent.”
I take several shallow breaths through my nose hoping it would be enough. Sure enough, he’s come
to our rescue.
“Cay, I need you to come closer. We need to get the little girl off his back.” Jamie instructs, taking charge of the situation.
“Her name is Madilyn.” Madisyn corrects slowly.
“And what’s yours?” Micayla asks as her voice gets closer.
“Madisyn.” For the first time she speaks as if she’s afraid of the wolves she de
“It’s okay Maddie. If Micayla is Jamie’s mate then I have no problems with he pack house. She will be faster than me.”
