Chapter 90 DANE His throat was in my hand .


    I could feel his pulse beating wildly .


    Hell , I could almost smell his blood .


    All I had to do was squeeze , and I could end Remington Reed , one of the most vicious .


    Broken Forest fighters .


    As if she could read my mind , Aurora put her hand over mine .


    She red at her former foster brother .


    As much as I want to see him dead , he came here at his own risk .


    Then he knows the consequences .


    My ws tightened .


    Bit into his skin .


    He bared his teeth at me .


    Do what you have to .


    I dont care anymore .


    Why ? Aurora demanded , stepping close to him .


    Youre the future Alpha of Broken Forest .


    Why wouldnt you care ? You think my parents are ever going to step down ? Hell no .


    I dont even know all the dark shit theyre into these days .


    But if you want to save your children , thats where they are .


    Both my wolf and the man that I was howled for his death .


    Hed killed Blue Ridge wolves .


    He was the enemy .


    He deserved it .


    Auroras hand was still on my arm , her eyes huge .


    Why are you Chapter 90 doing this , Remi ? 2/6 For you , he coughed .


    Because after a lifetime of what they did to you … what I did … I owed you .


    Aurora looked speechless .


    I managed to loosen my fingers one at a time .


    Come on , I said to Aurora and … Evelyn ? What was she doing out here ? I didnt like that .


    There was no good reason for her to be alone in the forest with the rival shed lost to after eight years .


    But Id have to file it away forter .


    Right now , we needed to focus on the children .


    I let go of Remington , and he dropped to his knees , gasping and gagging while I used the pack bond to summon my warriors .


    What will you do to him ? Aurora asked , her eyes never leaving her brother .


    I crouched in front of Remington .


    You may have just saved my childrens lives .


    Once I have them again , you can go .


    Remington nodded and wouldnt meet my eyes .


    Wait ! Evelyn called , striding up to us .


    What about my I mean , the nanny .


    Was she with the children , too ? Remington gave Evelyn a long stare .


    The longer he looked , the paler she got .


    Finally , he said , All I know about are the kids .


    Chapter 90 3/6 I called a few of my wolves , and they dragged him away to the house .


    I looked at Evelyn , my brows drawing together .


    What was that about ? She shook herself like shed been in some kind of trance and shrugged .


    Im not sure .


    Then , without even looking at me , she turned and walked toward the house .


    Evelyn rarely did anything without looking to me or asking for my attention .


    Another strange moment to think onter .


    We went back to the house , and I rallied the pack .


    I wanted to take them all andunch an all out attack , but there was still the treaty and the Council to think about .


    Unfortunately , we have no proof theyve taken the children except the word of one of their own wolves , said Archer .


    When I growled at my beta , Trajan stepped in .


    Consider , Alpha , that he could be setting us up for a trap .


    The more I got to know Auroras choice for her future beta , the more I approved of her decision .


    He was good at being a voice of reason without pissing me off the way Archer sometimes did .


    Chapter 90 4/6 I turned to Remington .


    You swear your pack has my children ? On my life , Remington said .


    I wasnt sure why , but I believed him .


    Aurora did , too .


    In the end , we decided to go to Broken Forest with a dozen of our strongest warriors at our side and more hidden in the forest nearby if they were needed .


    Dane , Aurora stopped me just as everyone was shifting to leave .


    What about what Remington said ? What if this is just a trap for you ? She hesitated , then said , Or … what if it isnt ? Do you believe what Remington said about you ? I remembered my grandfathers fears leading up to his death about me being a sacrifice , and I nodded .


    I believe him , yes .


    I knew there was an unspoken question in her words .


    If it turned out Remington was right , and I had the chance to trade my life for my childrens lives , would I ? Yes .


    In a heartbeat .


    But Archer and Evelyn watched us , and I wasnt going to argue with them , so I didnt say it out loud .


    The decision was mine , and I wouldnt discuss it .


    By the time we entered the forest , crossed onto the other packsnd , and made it to the cave mouth that served as their pack house , the sun was fading .


    I strode out in front of my pack in my lycan form and howled a challenge .


    Chapter 90 5/6 Even though , worryingly , we hadnt seented the twins or Mary Jamison on our way here .


    If theyde this way , we should have .


    A momentter , Waylon Reed answered , exiting the cave in hist own lycan form with two dozen pack warriors behind him ..


    Whats the meaning of this , Montague ? Youve set foot on mynds .


    You know that means death .


    You have my children , I growled .


    Give them back to me , or our war begins all over again .


    Waylonughed .


    We dont have your children .


    Yes you do , I growled .


    I want them back .


    What proof do you have ? Esther asked ,ing to stand by her husband while still in her ridiculous 1950s dress in her human form .


    Remington told us , Aurora called out .


    He risked his life .


    He has no reason to lie .


    Remington ? Waylonughed .


    All right , where is he , then ? I looked around for Remington … He was gone .
