The six of us made our way silently through the trees. We were following the path out toward the edge of our pack's territory. This was sowhere that I didn't even know about. I did my best to follow the scent trails, but there was sothing about them that was making it disappear the further into the trees we went.

I had never known of soone making their scent disappear like this. That should have been impossible, shouldn't it. But it was happening. I had caught traces of Howard's scent and even traces of my Star's scent. There were also about twenty or so other scents when it all started.

But now, now that we were slowly tracking these scents to their destination, almost all the traces of the trails were disappearing altogether. This was not normal at all and frankly it was creeping the fuck out. But I wouldn't give up. I would search until I found my Star. I would bring her ho after I killed that son of a bitch Howard. And after I brought her ho I would spend the rest of my life proving to her that I loved her, that I respect her, and that I want nothing more than to be with her in whatever way she was comfortable with.

After a while, I thought I saw sothing through the trees. A glimpse of sothing that seed reflective. There was sothing there even though I couldn't fully see it.

After another half a mile or so I saw sothing again. It looked like there was a house there, but it was pitch black and blended almost perfectly with the darkness that surrounded it. I was only able to make out the house at all because of the light that reflected off the windows, what few there were that were currently unshuttered.

This had to be it. This had to be where Howard had taken Star. And that ant that this was the house that the warlock used to live in when he controlled our pack. Well, if that son of a bitch ever ca back he would find sothing waiting for him that he didn't like.

That asshole Gannon would find his doom if he ever tried to hurt or take soone from my pack again. And this Howard, whoever he really was, he was going to learn that he should never have hurt my woman. I was going to teach him that lesson tonight.

With every step that brought closer to that house I felt the hackles on my wolf rise. He was angry, beyond angry really he was filled with an angry jealous rage.

'How dare he touch my mate?' The beast inside my head kept asking as he paced and readied for the coming fight.

Just before we broke the tree line the others with , Kent, Toby, Morgan, Reed, and Bailey, all shifted into their wolf forms. I was focusing on finding my mate and taking her ho so I wanted to be thinking rationally the entire ti. Not to ntion I did not want to appear before her naked, not after what happened so recently.

With the others now ready we stord the house in groups of two. We entered at three different points and attacked anyone who we saw.

Bailey and I saw three n in the front of the house. They all looked like they had just gotten there and were surprised to find two enemies jumping through, smashing through, a window. Before they could do so much as scream, Bailey had locked his massive jowls over one of the n's throats while I grabbed the other two by the neck in my bare hands, cutting off the supply of air heading to their lungs.

I looked to the side and saw Bailey shake his head, trying to get the vile blood of that man from his mouth. The wolf form of him matched well with his human form, the sa brown hair and eyes that matched his human ones. There was no mistaking him at all.

With nothing more than a nod to each other we continued to search the bottom floor of the house. We ran into the others and found more dead bodies along the way. In all there had been eight people on the bottom floor, but we knew that there were more, we just needed to find them.

There was a brief strategy eting once we were certain that there were absolutely no more enemies on the first floor. We had determined that in the search there were two ways to get upstairs. We would now be dividing up into groups of three to storm the second floor. We would eliminate all threats before we rescued my mate.

It was killing to wait and to take this long, but I needed to to make sure nothing stood in my way once I had her in my arms.

I knew where she was most likely being kept. I had seen the house up close before we ca inside and there was a tall tower that stuck up in the middle of the house. After the second floor was secured I would be able to go get her.

I would find Howard, then I would rip his throat out, followed by his heart and then perhaps just rip his body limb from limb. I would do all this sowhere on the second floor before finding my Star. I would kill him sowhere she would not have to see the bloody carnage of it all. She did not need to have those mories lingering with her. She had already watched kill one man and knew I had killed soone else. I did not want her to think that I was a monster that enjoyed killing.

In truth I hated killing people, I didn't like it at all, but I would not tolerate good people being put in harm's way because of bad people like this. I would do what I needed to do.
