The Alpha Who Saved Me

The Alpha Who Saved Me By Stacy Rush Chapter 28

DECLAN

Duke races back to the pack house just in time to hear our Beta finish giving his orders. Transforming and giving me back the reigns, Keenan throws a pair of basketball shorts to me, and I quickly put them on. Gavin is just coming from the pack house when I address him first

“Have you talked to your father yet?”

“Yes, I just got off the phone with him. He’s willing to send a small team to the two packs closest to us.”

“Okay, good, but there is a change in plans, and I no longer need him to send them to those packs.” I climb the steps to the front porch and then turn to face my warriors, “I have just learned that the Desert Sand pack does, indeed, have Quinn!” Duke growls within, “We must get to her as soon as possible, because she is not in good shape and I fear that if she is left there any longer, she will not survive.”

“Quinn is strong, Declan.” This comes from Carter, and I smile sadly ay him.

“Quinn is the strongest she-wolf that I know, that is true, but I also know that she would rather die before letting Luther touch her the way! know that he will.” A murmur ripples through my warriors, “I received a picture message just a few moments ago from an unknown number. Quinn has been stripped and beaten while being in chains. Luther is in the picture, along with, I believe it’s his son. I haven’t heard anything about the son in many years, but he’s around the right age.”

“Can I see the message?” Gavin dares to ask me.

“**no, you can’t see the message. I’m not about to pass around a picture that shows another Alpha’s weakness.” I scowl at my cousin. He probably just wants to see Quinn naked, but even I wish I could unsee what I had. I turn to my Beta, “I need you to get on the phone and get our allies to the north of us

to meet us just outside of Luther’s territory. We need them there in two hours’ time.” I turn to my cousin,” need you to contact the south allies, and I will take care of the rest.” I look over the crowd, “We leave here in twenty minutes. I want you all prepared for engagement, because we are not leaving without Alpha Quinn!”

NNNNNNNNNNNN.

We are just getting ready to head out when Lila comes walking up. I don’t have time to even wonder what had taken her so long to get back,

and I really don’t care. What I do care about is her stopping me just before I shift.

“Alpha, where is everyone going?”

“It has nothing to do with you, Lila. Go inside and do whatever the **you usually do.” I answer and try to walk away, but she reaches her hand out to stop me once again. Duke growls, “Back the ***up and don’t touch me!”

“But Alpha, there are things that we need to discuss about the pup. I was talking to Dr. Langly…”

“I SAID BACK THE ***UP!” Duke actually nips at Lila’s hand that is still on my forearm, so I have to push him back. Sighing. I look at the shocked she-wolf, “Lila, I don’t have time right now. I have important business, but once it’s all settled then you can tell me what you and the doc discussed.” It takes all that I have to be this calm with the Luna.

“Okay, thank you, Alpha.” She gives me a small smile, but I’m already turning around and forgetting the whole conversation.

“Declan,” Gavin calls out, “I’ve talked to Quinn’s Beta and he’s going to meet us there with his warriors as well.”

“Thanks, I wasn’t going to reach out to him, knowing that they don’t have the numbers, but I should have known that he would want to be there to help rescue his Alpha.”

Suddenly, a vicious growl echoes through the crowd, “That’s where you’re going? You’re going for HER?” Lila stands facing us with her hands fisted at her sides, “We have things to discuss concerning YOUR pup, and you are choosing HER AGAIN!?”

“Mind your tongue, Lila!” I warn, “Rescuing another Alpha takes precedence over discussing baby names, or birthing plans this early in the pregnancy!”

“But you’re ALWAYS choosing HER!” She shrieks.

I take big strides until I’m right up in her face, And I told YOU that I will ALWAYS choose her over you! When are you going to get that through your head, woman?”

“I am your Luna!” She crosses her arms in front of her and glares at me.

“And I am your ALPHA!” I snap at one of the warriors that are staying behind. He comes jogging quickly, “Ben, please see to it that my Luna Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

gets put into one of the clean cells. Make sure she eats all her meals and takes care of herself while she is being punished.”

“WHAT? You can’t be serious!” Lila cries out as ben takes her arm. “Be mindful of the pup she’s carrying.” I tell the warrior, “I don’t want anything to happen to my heir.”

“Yes, Alpha.”

I turn back towards my men, and they all quickly turn away except for Carter and Gavin, who both are wearing matching smiles.

“Don’t ***say a word!” i glare at them both. Carter holds both hands up and steps away, while Gavin just chuckles. “Let’s go, we are already running behind.”

By the time we reach just outside the Desert Sand territory, most of the other packs are already there. Depending on how soon each pack left, they should have all made it within an hour and a half, but I wanted to give them that little extra time in case it was needed. By the looks of it, we are only waiting on two of the ten allies that we reached out to.

“Declan,” my cousin Deke approaches, “I’m sorry to hear about this. I set out as soon as I got the call.”

“Thanks Deke, I really appreciate it and I’m sure Quinn will as well.” i slap his shoulder.

Just then a few of the scouts that I had sent over to watch the pack, approach me and my cousin, “Alpha, after watching Luther’s pack for the past few days, it is our understanding that he doesn’t have the numbers to be able to attack the packs that he has been attacking.”

“That’s what I thought. Quinn had said that it looked like he had rogues with him the day he had attacked her pack. That must be what he’s doing, but how he’s getting them to follow him, is another mystery.” I stand with my hands on my hips, “How about now? How do our numbers look going into his territory?”

The warrior scratches his head, “That’s the thing, Alpha, you shouldn’t have any issue getting in and getting out because he may have only a quarter of what we have here.”

“Do you think he has rogues hidden throughout his territory?” Deke asks.

“I mean, it’s possible, but we haven’t seen anything out of the ordinary.” The young warrior states.

The last two ally packs arrive, giving us at least two thousand warriors, give or take. None of us could bring all of our numbers because we still need to protect our territories as well, but this is a good number to have.

I turn towards everyone, “Thank you for coming and bringing aid to help another Alpha and ally. Alpha Quinn has been in captivity for a little over a week now and from what I saw in the message I received, she’s in rough shape. I’m not sure when the picture was actually taken, so she may be worse than what the photo showed.” I proceed to inform them of what my scouts had learned and told them all to keep their eyes open at all times and to have each other’s backs because we are not sure if we will encounter any rogues within the territory.

Half of us remain in human form while the rest transform back into our wolves. I remain in human form until we reach the border of Luther’s town. Our men took care of his border patrol but I’m not sure if they were able to get word to their Alpha that they had been breached.

We are spotted just as I bring Duke forward, but it makes no difference because we have Luther’s little town surrounded. I don’t know if he is that dense not to have extra defense when he has a captured Alpha or if he is just that smug to think that he wouldn’t be caught, but regardless, I’m about to teach him a lesson in how a real Alpha takes care of business.

A light brown wolf comes at me, baring his teeth, and I’m able to step to the side just to circle around and grab him by the scruff. Clamping down on his neck, I shake my head back and forth, viciously, until I hear a snap. I toss him to the side and continue to run, dodging a number of wolves that come straight at me. I know I have my men behind me that will take care of the **, so I just keep pressing on. Unless I can’t get past the ***, I will let my men handle them; I just want to get to Quinn.

I enter the town the same time that Deke and Spencer enter, all from different directions. Gavin is only a minute behind, but just as he enters, a wave of **rogues come barreling toward us. I’m not sure

where they were hiding, and it doesn’t matter. What matters now is taking as many out as soon as we can because I have my sight on the pack house, and nothing is going to stop me from getting there.

Most rogues are a vicious bunch. They have nothing to live for, so they just hunt and kill for the hell of it. They are wolves that were either part of a pact and got kicked out or they chose to leave. Then there are those who were born into the rogue life. The ones who choose to leave normally aren’t bad. They just roam around until they can find another pack to join, otherwise they will turn feral after so many years.

These are the feral kind, and it only makes me question how Luther is getting them to cooperate. They are nasty and they **stink of garbage, and if you’re not careful, they will rip you apart in no time. Glancing around, I notice that even with the rogues, there are still more of us. This one moment that we use to take stock of the situation, almost costs us. Pain shoots up my hind leg as a black and white wolf latches on. I growl and use all my strength to flip us both over. When he lands hard on his back, his jaw loosens around my leg and I’m able to free myself. I don’t waste time and go straight for the jugular. A yip breaks out as soon as I sink my fangs into the rogue’s neck. Ripping out that portion of his neck, I spit it out in the wolf’s face and leave him to bleed out.

‘Go Duke! We have a clear path to the pack house.’ I tell my wolf.
