“Let her go.” I say, making him jump.
He turns, keeping the omega between us. He looks me over. I don’t know what he sees, but it makes him sneer at me. “You killed my Beta.”
“Your Beta was going to kill an innocent child.”
“An Alpha heir to a pack that is now an enemy of my mine.”
“Perhaps you should have thought of that before you came to a celebration of his life where there would be two Guardians.”
“One of those Guardians has been eliminated. Once he is dead, I will mark you and make you mine.”
I chuckle at him. I can’t help it. “As if I would ever let you mark me. You are not an Alpha worthy of the title, much less a Guardian, and you’ll find that my mate is hard to kill.”
“You should have been my mate months ago. But Alpha Jerome ruined it by trying to take you out in front of everyone. I have much more finesse, more patience. I’ve bided my time and here we are. No one to stop me.”
“Wrong.” Clint says, coming up behind him and injecting him with something in his neck. Instantly, hist claw retracts and he grabs his neck.
He turns, looking at Clint, his eyes wide. “What have you done?”
“Injected you with what smelled like liquid silver. I think I got it into your blood stream. It should be pumping through your body right now. When it gets to your heart, you’ll be dead. NO ONE threatens my mate.” He snarls as Alpha Benjamin falls to the floor.
From the corner of my eye, I see a warrior leap at Clint. Andra shifts and takes him out before to Clint. I stand beside Clint, guarding his back as he turns to the warriors. can get
“You’ve lost your Alpha and your Beta, along with close 40 thirty warriors. If you choose to stay and fight, you will die along with them. There may only be two of us, but we’re Guardians. We’re stronger than you, we heal faster than you and we’re both immune to wolfsbane, as you can see. I suggest you think long and hard before deciding to attack us.”
Alpha Benjamin is writhing in pain at our feet. His warriors look at him. He’s trying to speak, but he can’t make coherent words. One after another, the warriors turn and leave. I don’t move until the last one moves out of the back door.
Clint turns to me. “Stay here and check these omegas. I’m going to make sure they leave and call Charles. We need back up.”
I shift back. “I’ll call Beta Charles while I check this group. You follow them, let me know if you need assistance.” I grab him and lock my lips on his in a passionate kiss. “Be careful with my mate.”
He kisses my forehead. “Take care of mine. I’ll be back as soon as I can. Watch your back in case any double back or are still lingering.”
I wait until he’s out the door before looking at the omega who Benjamin threatened. She hasn’t stopped watching him writhing on the floor. “Where’s your phone?” I ask her.
She points to the wall against the kitchen, I grab the landline and dial Charles’ number. He answers groggily but as I fill him in on the events of what happened, he wakes quickly, growling and promising to have warriors here in a couple of hours to support the pack until everyone wakes up. He is also going to send doctors, since Leander’s doctors are also going to be recovering.
I hang up and turn around to find the omega kicking Benjamin and cursing him for hurting her and her pack. I walk up to her, looking down at Benjamin who is now dead.
“Hey, hey.” I wait until she looks at me. “I need your help. Focus.”
When she nods, I get her name, Lucy, and get her to round up the omegas that are awake. There are only 20 of them.
“We need to know who in the pack has been killed, who is still unconscious and who might be awake. If anything seems wrong, get back here immediately and let me know.”
I break them into groups of two, so they won’t be alone and send them out to start checking. I have two stay in the packhouse to help me search the rooms and those laying on the floor in the main room.
I’m on the floor, checking the omegas when someone shouts. “Guardian, look out!” I turn, seeing a warrior coming at me in a partial shift. I move to protect myself when someone reaches out and grabs him by his throat.
Alpha Eric, while wobbly on his feet, holds the warrior off the ground. “Now, why would you be trying to killardian?”
The warrior can’t answer since Eric is holding him by his throat. Eric turns to me. “What the fuck is going
Son?”
“Alpha Benjamin and his pack poisoned everyone and planned to take out all the ranked members and warriors of Shadow Falls while they were unconscious. You have wolfsbane in your system.”
He extends his claws, slicing through the warrior’s throat, letting him drop to the floor dead, before stumbling. I catch him before he falls, supporting his weight as I walk him to a chair.
“What’s the situation?” He asks, taking control as the only Alpha awake.
I fill him in, starting with saving Liam to killing Benjamin and Clint following the others to make sure they leave the pack lands, I let him know our Beta is sending help and medical staff to care for everyone as they start to wake up.
“How are you awake already?” Lask Alpha Eric. No one else is showing any sign of consciousness.
He gives me a rueful smile. “I guess feral sickness is good for something. I didn’t eat much at dinner.”
Clint comes back in. “Alpha Eric, how are you feeling?”
“Like I’ve been injected with wolfsbane.” He says sarcastically, a semblance of his formal self coming through.
“What happened here?” Clint asks, pointing to the dead warrior at nearest us.
“He stayed behind and tried to get me while my back was turned. The omegas warned me a moment before Alpha Eric grabbed him by the throat.”
“Thank you.” Clint says to Alpha Eric, pulling me against him.
The omegas begin returning, giving us the numbers of who is dead and who is still unconscious.
I’m compiling the numbers to provide to Alpha Leander when he wakes up, when the front door opens. Our warriors come in and Clint immediately walks to them.
I see Alpha Eric’s head whip around and a growl rips from his lips as he stands and stalks to one of our pack members. She stands there, eyes wide and looking stunned. I race over to him, hoping he isn’t having a feral moment when he pulls one of our newest doctors into his arms and takes her mouth in an ardent kiss.
He pulls back, looking at her. “Mate.” He says, before kissing her again.
The next morning is chaotic. Lily and I took charge of the situation once Alpha Eric found his mate. While
I understood that he just wanted to take her somewhere private and mark and mate her, he was recovering from wollsbane, and she was needed to provide medical attention as people woke.
We began pulling all of Benjamin’s dead pack members outside, away from the packhouse. More carefully, we began collecting and laying Alpha Leander’s dead inside the packhouse. We covered them with blankets that the omegas brought to us. As people woke, they began looking for their loved ones. Many fell the severed bond when they woke.
While we couldn’t save everyone, Lily and I protecting Liam inadvertently helped to save many of the other pack members. If we hadn’t woken when we did, who knows how many pack members would have died.
