Chapter 689



Chapter 689

My wolf was desperate to keep her eyes on him and ensure his safety, but I knew there was no way they'd let me leave here.

"I need to see Gavin..." I said, my voice raspy from consuming the gunpowder.

"Sorry, future Luna, but I have orders to keep you in the packhouse," Derek said, looking a bit sheepish.

"Judy!" I heard my mother's voice, and I felt relieved that she was okay.

She ran towards me, tears in her eyes, as she wrapped me in her arms. "It's your father... he's been injured."

My heart shattered in an instant.

"What?" I gasped, looking at her through my own tear-filled eyes. "What do you mean ht's hurt?"

"They are taking him to the hospital," she cried. "He was shot. The bullets are laced with silver. They won't let me go with him. They ordered that I stay here where it's safe."

My lip trembled as a sob escaped me.

"How bad was it? Where was he shot?" I asked, panic consuming me.

"In the stomach," she replied, covering her mouth as she sobbed. "I don't know

what to do. This family had gone through so much. We can't lose him."

I hugged her tightly.

"Dad is strong. He's endured so much. Something like this isn't going to take him away from us," I assured her.

I could still hear gunshots from

outside, and it was hard to tell if they were from our gammas or the rogues. Not knowing where Gavin was destroying me on the inside, I now understood how my mother was feeling when it came to my father. At least I was bonded with Gavin, so I'd be able to feel it if he were dying or in serious trouble. Right now, my wolf was just anxious and wanted our mate back.

A gamma walked into the packhouse, pulling a distraught Lucy with him. She was sobbing and struggling against him, screaming for Sampson. I ran to her without hesitation.

"Lucy, what's going on? Where's Sampson?" I asked her.

She was too wound up to actually speak; she blubbered something incoherent, so the Gamma spoke for her.

"He's battling the rogues with Alpha Landry," he explained. "He made me drag Lucy away against her wishes."

I nodded at him before wrapping her in my arms. I'm sure she was thinking about the rogue attack at the Redcliff pack.

"Hey, it's going to be okay. Sampson is going to be okay," I assured her.

"He was shot in the leg," she sobbed, her entire body trembling. "I watched him

down as they pulled me away. I have no idea if he's okay or not..."

"Your wolf would be able to feel it if he weren't," I assured her. "Trust your instincts. Your mate is strong. He's come through."

"That's a good idea," Nan said, cradling Emalyn in her arms; her eyes were blood

shot and I knew, like the rest of everyone else, she was crying all. I realized at that moment that Chester wasn't here.
