Jessica POV

I was so comfortable, circled by warmth. I must be dreaming, I had never felt this warmth and security my entire life. I nuzzled down further into the warmth, feeling comforted. I felt something move against me and froze. My body tensed, as I came awake quickly.

I felt something hard against my back. Where the hell was I? Last I remembered I had been on the floor, in my usual place. Cold and uncomfortable. I slowly tried to disengage fr

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 129 - Concerned

    Jessica POV Marly, Carson, Cole and I travelled in the lead vehicle. The woman, Kendrick and two warriors travelled in the second vehicle with the remaining warriors following us. We had our reservations about Kendrick but nothing concrete enough to warrant leaving him behind or destroying him. “What are we going to do with her, when we get back to our pack?” Carson inquired. I sat with his question for a moment. “We have to figure out how she fits into all of this. We need to speak with Donna,” I replied. “I think we need to consider a DNA test as well,” Cole commented. I looked to him in surprise. “Look after your sister,” echoed in my mind. While I did not want to consider it I had no choice. I nodded my head, “Yes, you are right,” I confirmed. “We need to know who she is,” I added as everyone was silent in the vehicle. “We need to try and get something from Kendrick as well. Some typ

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 128 - Kendrick

    Jessica POV I slowly woke up, wrapped in warmth. I could feel the bond sparks between Cole’s body and mine. I had not opened my eyes, when I felt his lips touch my forehead. “Good morning, sweetheart,” he murmured against my skin. I snuggled further into his body, “Is it?” I asked sadly. “Any morning you wake up, alive and in my arms, is a good morning,” he confirmed, as I opened my eyes and looked up into his. “We are going to be okay,” he assured me. I felt tears fill my eyes, but I willed them to not fall. “I know,” I agreed, emotion clogging my throat. “What happens next?” I asked, as Cole moved to stand beside the bed. “We get the clearance to take you home. Then we figure out what we do with this woman,” he commented. I had forgotten about her. Grayson’s mate. He had said take care of my sister. Was it her? And how was that possible? “Did she say anything while I was in surgery?”

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 127 - Fate

    Cole POV I had been pacing the floor outside the operating room for hours. Carson and Marly were sitting waiting, as was the woman who had brought us here. I had no idea why she had stayed. Kendrick had stayed behind with Susan’s body, ensuring it was prepared for transport back to our pack land. “How much longer?” Marly muttered, echoing what we all were feeling. “Soon, I hope,” I replied. As if sensing our need for information, a nurse came through the operating doors. “The doctor will be out to see you shortly,” she said. Marly and Carson stood, as the woman remained in her chair. The doctor came out a few minutes later, sweat on her forehead. “How is she?” I asked, feeling my breath catch in my throat. She looked at me solemnly. “The Beta Female survived the surgery,” the doctor stated. There was a rush of relief that went through my body. Marly hugged Carson, equally as happy to hear

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 126 - Loss

    Jessica POV I stood there panting for a moment, in shock that the end had finally come. Grayson was destroyed, and we had destroyed the three beasts. Silence surrounded me, as everyone was in their own moment. Then followed the painful scream from the woman known as Grayson’s mate. “Let me go,” she yelled, as she moved towards Grayson’s fallen body. I watched her as she kneeled beside her dead mate. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she lifted his head into her arms. “Why?” she kept whispering as she rocked Grayson back and forth. She looked up at me with bitterness in her eyes. “You did not have to kill him!” she spit out. “It was the only choice,” I replied, as my hand went to my abdomen. I noticed the blood, but I heard Marly yell for me. I did a quick fix intending to return to the wound, once I had healed Carson. I moved beside Marly and started to scan Carson’s body. He had been knock

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 125 - Death

    Jessica POV I turned to see Cole holding a claw to the woman’s neck. He was prepared to destroy her. “Cole,” I whispered, as he glanced back at me, “You did not think you could get rid of me that easily, did you?” he teased. I sagged in relief, feeling Grayson pull me tighter to his body. “You do anything to my mate, and I will destroy yours,” Grayson stated. “I doubt that you bastard. You care more about your mission than you do your mate,” Cole taunted. The woman gasped, and I had a momentary pang of sadness for her. It was true, he was so focused on winning he was losing sight of what should matter the most. “They are lying, sweetheart. They are trying to make you doubt me. You trust me, right?” Grayson encouraged. The woman paused, fear on her face. “Just let them go, Grayson. Come with me now,” she pleaded. I could feel the anger rising in Grayson’s energy. He swore before respondi

  • Rescuing the Beta's Mate   Chapter 124 - Wounded

    Jessica POV Grayson’s footsteps faltered as the soft voice carried across the room. He stopped moving and turned towards the woman who had moved from the shadows. The woman I had seen in the upstairs window. “Sweetheart, we have been over this,” Grayson started to say when the woman stopped him. “I do not want this for you. I want us to be together,” she replied softly. I could feel the frustration coming from Grayson as he watched the woman move closer. “I want more for us; you know that,” Grayson commented as the woman moved to stand in front of him. “I am happy with you ... just as you are,” she responded. He looked at her, truly looked and I saw a flicker of hesitation in his eyes. A moment where he wanted to give the woman whatever she wanted. He gave himself a shake, “I am sorry, sweetheart. Things are already in motion,” he advised before adding, “Please go back upstairs,” he encouraged.

    Jessica POV I stand there in complete shock. I did not know what had come over me, but the man was flung against the wall and a blade was sticking out of his chest. Where did the blade come from? How had I managed to toss him across the room by lifting my hand?

    Jessica POV “I cannot do that,” I murmured, shock taking over my body. “There is no choice. You must,” the Elder countered. I shook my head, “He has information about my mother. I need that information,” I said, looking to Cole for help. He nodded reluctantly.
