The Alpha Who Saved Me novel Chapter 120

CHAPTER 120

I'm watching the monitors for any sign of the fighting, but there is no movement whatsoever. Both boys are sound asleep in their grandmother's arms while we wait for the all-clear. Sara had shown up just before lunch time like she usually does a few days a week. Now that she is in charge of her pack, she isn't able to come as often as would like. I'm so happy that Asher has her in his life, though, and that our relationship has bloomed tremendously.

When I see movement on one of the monitors, I give it my full attention. A big charcoal gray wolf comes slinking into town from the tree line. It's being cautious as it looks around what looks to be a ghost town. How he slipped past my warriors, I have no idea, but he has, and I don't see any of my men surrounding the pack house like they are supposed to be. Looking at another monitor, though, the one that's facing the back of the house, I see fighting going on. So, that's where my men are, it was the plan to get them all in one area.

I link my men to let them know about the Alpha wolf coming from the front, but they are all tied up, fighting the other wolves. Knowing that I'm going to be in so much trouble for what I'm about to do, I make the only decision that I can and head for the door.

"Summer, lock this door behind me." I order the she-wolf.

"Quinn, you can't be serious!" Cici runs over to me, trying to block my way, "It's too dangerous for you out there!"

I point to the monitor, "Oh, and letting that big Alpha wolf get into my pack house where my babies are, isn't?" I don't realize that I include Holden in as one of mine, but he is like one of my own, and I will protect him just like I would Ash.

"You can't fight him by yourself, Quinn!" My friend shrieks.

It takes nothing to move her little body out of my way, "I'm only going to hold him off until the others can get here." I quickly run up the steps and unlatch the door, pushing it open easily enough. Once I'm out I glance back down at Cici, "Lock the door and guard my babies with your life!"

"Quinn..." I cut off whatever she's about to say by closing the door and placing the rug back over it.

I glance out the back door and see the fighting still going on. I quickly close the inner door and bolt it, so they can't get in from this way. I then run to the front and see that the Alpha wolf is halfway to the pack house now, still taking his time and being watchful for any dangers.

Taking a deep breath, I call up my wolf to be on standby, but to not shift until I tell her to. She argues with me, but in the end, I get my way while she pouts and paces back and forth. Slowly, my hand turns the door knob and I'm putting on my serious face in order to face this new threat.

I swing the door open and step through it with purpose, closing the door behind me, "What is it that you want? Why are you attacking my pack when we have done nothing to you!"

Of course, my questions go unanswered as the wolf continues to come towards me. It's now growling while keeping his eyes on me with every step he takes. I take up a stance at the top of the stairs; I'll be damned if he gets inside.
