Chapter 113: The Packhouse
Kinsley
It’s quickly apparent that Joshua brought both his and Elias’ pack warriors to this war. The
packhouse is quickly swarmed with wolves and men fighting to get to our weakest members. This
isn’t just a battle to get Sophie, it’s a battle to decimate our pack, my family.
I know Sophie is worried about the women who aren’t fighters who are outside the safe rooms,
women like Leah, but we don’t have long to worry before we’re in the middle of our own battle. I
don’t know who is outside fighting besides Alpha Joshua, but they sent a Beta and two G***s inside
to get Sophie.
Our young mothers who are warriors are fantastic, holding their own easily, but those three, in
particr, set their sights on Sophie and because I’m with her, me as well. If we could shift, this
wouldn’t even be a fight, but they must sense that I, too, am pregnant since I’m not shifting and they
seem to decide that they don’t just want Sophie, but me as well. Like hell am I ever going to let
someone take me from my mate or kill my pup.
Sophie’s a d*** good fighter, better than I am, probably because she’s an Alpha. As a Beta, I’m a
good fighter, a strong fighter, but I’m not as good as she is. However, youe into my house,
threaten my family and my pup, I’ll go f**g
berserker on your a**
‘We both will,’ Sybil, my wolf, snarls in my head. ‘No one hurts our pup.’

So, Sophie and I stay back-to-back, just like Hunter and Lucas taught us. The G**s are the ones
who face off with us and the Beta is working to try and get Sophie. Between the two of us, we’reN?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
holding our own pretty well. I know I’ve taken some hits; I can feel the blood dripping down my legs
and the G**a in front of me has stayed in wolf form, making it harder for me to fight him. We’re all
stronger in wolf form.
He’s just made a fatal error, and exposed himself too much to me, and I swipe, feeling my ws
sink into his soft throat when I feel Sophie being jerked away from me.
I turn, seeing that the Beta was able to grab her, the Ga**a still nipping at her to try and overpower
her.
“Sophie!” I scream.
Lucas and I had created a word that if I got into trouble, I was to scream so that he’d know that we
needed help.
‘FIRE!’ I scream in the mind link. No one else may think twice about the call, but Lucas will know. It’s
not something that would alert the pack during a war but it would tell Lucas that I was in trouble and
needed help.
I turn, focusing my attention on the Ga***a as the Beta begins dragging Sophie toward the back
doors. As I begin fighting with this Ga**a, I see that the safe room doors that are closest to us are
being breached. My heart sinks. We’re losing. We’re going to lose and I’m going to lose everything
that I’ve worked so hard to achieve.
I see some of the warriors realize that Sophie is being dragged off even though she’s still fighting
against the Beta. None of us -can get to her, myself included since I’m still focused on the

G**a in front of me, but my moment of distraction, at looking at the safe room door, costs me. The
G**a rakes his ws across my stomach, leaving b**y g**es behind.
“NO!” I scream, just as a shot rings out through the packhouse. The G**a turns, seeing his fellow
warrior lying dead on the ground. He shifts, snarling at Brooklyn who is standing in the opening of
the breached safe room, the gun in her hand still smoking.
“Come at me. I dare you,” she says, her voice steady and confident, the gun in her hand
unwavering. When the G** takes a step, she doesn’t hesitate to kill him too.
I turn, needing to focus on protecting Sophie, but then I turn back to Brooklyn.
“Protect Sophie!” I say to her. She begins looking around trying to find where she is, and I point.
Brooklyn aims her gun, and fires again. She doesn’t kill the Beta, but the bullet, the silver bullet,
lodges into his shoulder.
“What the f**k!” he roars and just like with me, his moment of distraction is all Sophie needs. Her
ws m into his stomach, slicing him open as she grips his internal o**ns.
“How dare youe into my pack, my home, and try to hurt my family,” she snarls. I watch his eyes
go wide before she rips his insides out, leaving a trail of blood and guts hanging from her hands.
The Beta’s mouth opens and closes before he falls to the floor.
At least I think he falls to the floor. I feel my own body jolt, pain shooting up from my knees, as I
realize that I just copsed to the floor, my head bing light. I wrap my arms around my

From somewhere far away, I hear someone calling to me, but I’ m too lightheaded to respond before

unconsciousness.
Brutus POV
I stayed as close as I could to the packhouse, wanting to be near Leah in case she needed me.
She’s not a fighter, and she’s definitely not a killer. It’s why I told her how she could maim these
warriors without killing them. I’m not sure she would be able to deliver the killing blow, and I wouldn’t
want her to. I love her sweet innocence, and I don’t want her to lose that because some Alpha
decided to be p**d because he was a bad mate, and his Luna left him.
So, I stay close, needing to be here for her.
There are many more fighters attacking us than I expected. I know that Alpha Joshua took over his
father-inw’s pack, and I’ m guessing he’s brought every warrior from both packs with him to
attack.
I keep my mind link open with Leah as I begin fighting. I’m a big man, and Argus is a big wolf, so we
usually have the upper hand in a fight. I’m not surprised when the attacking warriors begining
at me two at a time, but that’s how Alpha Hunter has always trained me, as if I was an Alpha and
would have to fight more than one wolf at a time.
I keep killing, but they just keeping. I know I’m covered in

blood and guts when I hear the sound that makes my heart nearly stop beating. Leah’s cry of pain.
With renewed energy, Argus begins shing through the warriors around us, fighting to get to his
mate who needs us. When we finally make our way inside the packhouse, I’m shocked to see how
many warriors made it through. Every one of the teams of fighters that are in the packhouse are
taking on more than two wolves and when look, I can see that Leah has been backed against a wall
by two wolves, her partner dead on the floor.
I have a moment of pride to see how many wolves and men are lying on the floor, dying from
punctures to their lungs and throats, just like I taught her. Then, Argus sees red, and leaps at
wolves who are attacking our mate. He pulls one away, putting himself between Leah and this wolf.
Both wolves turn on me as I’d hoped they would and Argus moves back until Leah grabs his tail,
letting us know that she’s okay.
Theye at him and Argus fights hard, protecting his mate. He’s willing to die for her, but these
two wolves are nothing.
When the shot rings out in the packhouse, the sound hurts my ears, making Argus shake his head,
trying to refocus.
“BROOKLYN!” Leah screams and feel her move away from me.
“Protect Sophie!” I hear Beta Kinsley shout as we push Leah back against the wall. Argus nearly
rips one of the wolves in half, terrified that he’ll get to Leah, before turning our attention to what’s
happening in the direction that Beta Kinsley shouted.
I can see that Luna Sophie is being dragged by someone and she’s struggling hard, but she’s
injured and weaker than she

I’m about to go to her when I hear Leah’s shout of warning behind me. The second wolf leaps at
me, going for my throat. Argus moves to block, shoving his head down to protect his throat.
“NO!” Leah shouts and just before the wolf snaps his teeth on us, the wolf yelps in pain. At the
same moment, a third shot rings out through the packhouse, and I hear Beta Lucas shout to his
mate, snarling viciously as he begins tearing through. attacking wolves to get to her.
I look quickly, seeing Alpha Hunter rushing to Sophie who is staring at a dead warrior at her feet and
Beta Lucas who just catches his mate before her head hits the floor. Even from here, I can see that
her injuries are serious.
I turn and see my mate, panting, blood covering her hands and body, her ws still embedded in
the wolf that she attacked to save my life.
I shift quickly, ripping the head off the wolf who is howling in pain before pulling Leah to me and
holding her tightly.
“You’re not dying either,” she says ferociously, as she holds me.
I smile, holding her more tightly.
“No, I’m not,” I tell her before taking her hand and leading her over to where the others are.
Luna Sophie and Hunter stand by and watch as Brooklyn rushes to Beta Kinsley’s side, ordering
others to get her what she needs as she quickly begins stitching her up, trying to save her life.
