The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 49

Holden

The pain brings me to my knees once again causing my wolf to howl out, knowing that

our mate is being shocked once again. Thank the Goddess that it was only the one time

this time, but it’s one too many if you ask me. I hate that I can’ t feel my mate; I feel

empty without her. The bond is still there, but the emptiness is enormous, and I know

that not only me, but Achilles will go insane if we don’t get our mate back soon.

Our plan is solid, or at least we think it is. After bringing in Miss Beatrice to confirm a few

things, we worked out all the kinks and now we are ready to go. We know that we have

to do this when the moon peaks, but the problem was finding that exact moment.

According to Miss Beatrice, though, the moon’s peak is different than what we thought.

and get out, without sounding the alarm and bringing hell down upon us. As long as

Emery is by herself, it shouldn’t be an issue, but if by chance she isn’t

alone and we have to fight, the only chance we will have is killing the f*cker and

breaking all the wards once they go back in place after the allotted downtime.

We have absolutely no qualms about killing the f*cker, but the most important part is

getting Emery back home. We still have a little over an hour before it’s time and so I go

in search of my brothers. I feel the need to be with them at the moment, and if I’ve

learned anything, it’s to always go with what I’m feeling. When I find them both in the

kitchen, I’mo- tion them to follow me, and I lead them to the Alpha office.
