suits my taste. You know how it is.
Bitch. Stuck up eats-too-many-sweets-as-it-is,-bitch.
Willow raised a brow.  Well then, I m sure you know the way out.
Damn, she really loved this new wolfy fierce side of hers.
Anger flashed over Camille s face, but the woman wouldn t get what she wanted. No, Willow
wouldn t reach across the counter and smack a bitch.
Camille nodded then walked out the open door. She stopped once she reached the outside and
glanced over her shoulder. Pain shot through Willow s head and Camille was gone.
Flashes of hands, a deep voice mingling with a higher one.
Willow gasped.
It was them.
Fredrick and Camille.
Oh my God.
They were the ones who d kidnapped her and given her to the Centrals like a sack of flour to be
traded. They were the traitors. Bile rose in Willow s throat. How could they go against the Pack?
Hurt them like that?
Willow dropped the towel from her hand and ran.
Reed grabbed her arm and pulled her close as she made it out the door. She d forgotten she
wasn t alone, that her brother-in-law was there to protect her.
 Wait. Willow, what s wrong? What did Camille do? Reed demanded.
 It was them&  She choked, too angry to cry.
 What? Who? Who was them? Tell me what s wrong.
She took a deep breath, trying to clear her thoughts.  I remember now. That night. The night
with the dead girl. It was Camille and Fredrick. They took me. They helped the Centrals.
Reed s face turned to stone. He didn t ask how or why she suddenly knew but took out his
phone and called Jasper.
Willow mentally slapped herself.
Why didn t she think to call? Her brain was too jumbled.
She heard Jasper growl and shout at the news.
Reed closed the phone and tugged on her arm.  Come on. Let s get you home. Jasper s
waiting.
A howl split the air, followed by dozens more.
Slick oily magic filled the air, choking her.
Reed cursed.  We re under attack.
She was too late. She d remembered too late. Camille and Fredrick had betrayed the Pack.
Again. She only prayed she hadn t realized too late to save her family, her Pack, her home.
Chapter 22
Jasper bent to pick up the phone he d thrown against the wall in anger. He d always known
Camille was a slimy bitch and Fredrick a dumbass goon, but he d never thought they would stoop to
the level of betraying the Pack. Shouldn t he have felt something? Noticed something? Shouldn t
Maddox have felt their cruel brevity through their emotions?
He shook his head. There was no use thinking about the what-ifs and whys. They d fucked up.
They d let parasites, leaches, into their home, their Den, and his mate suffered for it. Jasper
swallowed the lump of guilt in his throat. They d kidnapped her. Stuck her with a needle and threw
her at the feet of the depraved and soulless Centrals. They d cut her, stripped her of her dignity, and
forced him to bite and tear her flesh to make her a wolf.
Not all the Centrals though. There was one. The girl who d helped Willow with that herb
concoction. He would be forever grateful to whoever that was, for she d saved his mate s life. But
now Jasper would have to take a life, or give the responsibility to one in his family. Fredrick and
Camille had to die. They needed to pay for their crimes and their sins.
He only hoped it hurt like hell.
A howl in the not too far distance stopped Jasper in his tracks.
What the hell?
A dozen more followed.
Dear God. We re under attack.
Heart pounding in his chest, he quickly dialed Adam. As the Enforcer, Adam would have
information.
 What the hell is going on? Jasper demanded.
 Our Den has been breached. The Centrals are coming! Adam yelled.
Jasper could hear growling and fighting over the line. Shit.
 Jasper, they killed the sentries.
Fuck.
 Dammit, it won t end there. A howl again, this time closer to his home and familiar.  Did you
hear that?
 Yeah, it s Maddox. He s getting the families to the bunkers. I have Mom, Cailin, Mel, and
Finn. And Dad is out protecting our people, along with the rest of the enforcers and our brothers.
 Good, we ve prepared for this. Protect the weaker, kill the invaders. We can do it.
 Jasper, they knew exactly how to get past our shields. We ve been betrayed.
He let out a painful breath.  Willow remembered. Camille and Fredrick. They re working with
the Centrals.
Adam cursed.  Get out there. I ll take the circle; you get to the south side. His brother sighed.
 Jasper, school was in session. I don t know if they got all the kids out or not.
 I ll check. I ll get everyone to safety.
 Take care of yourself.
 You too. They both hung up.
Jasper tucked the phone in his pocket and ran out the door. Damn it, he wanted to get to Willow.
To make sure she was safe and inhale that sweet cinnamon scent. They were a pair, connected. He
needed her and the child she carried more than breath. But Reed was with her. His little brother was
strong and could protect her. And if he were honest with himself, Willow could take care of herself.
That didn t mean she had to.
He jumped off the steps, his feet hitting the pavement of the sidewalk, and ran toward the
howls. His Pack was in trouble, and he intended to save them  and kick the Central s ass. Though he
didn t have proof it was them yet, there was no doubt in his mind who would be ballsy enough to
encroach on their turf.
The Centrals would pay for what they ve done.
He ran into the forest and the trees reached out and scratched his face, but he didn t care, his
sole intent to find anyone who needed his help. In the distance, he saw a fallen man. He inhaled,
catching the scent. Dammit, he was a Redwood. Jasper ran to the lifeless form and searched for a [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
