“Mason, what’s wrong?” He rushed over to me, with Matt at his heels.

“Ashlyn is back at the camp.” I told him and he let out a breath of relief.

“So then, let’s go back. We can storm the pack house once we have all the information. She is our first priority.” He said, and I agreed.

“Also, Thor is massive,” Derek commented, and I furrowed my eyebrows at him.

“What are you talking about? He’s always been that size.” I told him and he shook his head.

“He’s right, Mason. Thor is definitely bigger.” Liam told me. And it must be the gift of strength. I knew it would strengthen us. I could feel it, but I didn’t realize that Thor would be bigger.

“Let’s head back and we can get a plan together.” I commanded. Before we could turn around to leave. Vampires and Rogues came out from behind the trees that surrounded us.

“It looks like we outnumber you.” One vampire spoke.

“Who’s here because your families are being threatened?” I asked them. Most of them shifted uncomfortably, looking at their comrades.

“You can’t trick my men. They know you will kill them the first chance you get.” I’m assuming the vampire in charge spoke.

“You don’t have to fight us. King Theo is already working on getting your families to safety. You don’t have to die here today.” I told them.

“Just point us to the ones in charge and we will make sure you are all returned to your families.” Derek spoke, and I nodded my head.

“How dare you try to get my men to turn on me?” The-in-charge vampire yelled. He was furious, but I knew Ashlyn wouldn’t want us to just kill them. She would want us to save them first.

“We are giving you all a chance to live and to see your families again. You should probably take it.” I told them, looking around.

One young vampire and a wolf walked over to our side. I could see the relief on his face. He probably thought he was walking out here to his death. He walked up to me and stood beside me. And the rogue was still in wolf form, sitting beside him.

“Him and that one over there are the commanders.” He pointed to the one that I was speaking with and another one that was standing close by.

“I guess you can surrender or die.” Giving them a choice, but I knew they wouldn’t leave this battle alive. Suddenly, Ashlyn was in my head.

“Mason, where are you?”

“Ashlyn, where the hell are you?” I asked her. I was so relieved to hear from her.

“I’m back at the camp. I need you and Derek.” She said before the link cut out.

“How fucken dare you betray your king and your own kind!” He growled out.

“He betrayed his people when he threatened us and our families, so we would fight. If I can see my family again, I’ll take my chances with the wolf and dragon.” The young vampire spoke, and I was proud of him for standing up to his superior, like he just did.

“We need to get back.” I told Derek.

I wish we had Ashlyn here so she could just make these two vampires explode. I looked at Derek and we both started walking towards a different commander.

The one I started walking over to was trying to hide the tremor of fear that shook his body. I could smell his fear and I could see it in his eyes. I didn’t give him a chance to fight, run, or even speak.

My claws slipped out, and I reached into his chest, ripping his heart out. His body dropped to the ground, and I crushed his heart in my hand. I looked over at Derek, and had done the same thing. We were both now covered in blood, and I was eager to get back to the camp.

I walked over to Derek. Now we have these vampires and rogues to deal with. We were going to need a witch to help us sift through the truth. And we needed to contact King Theo and let him know we had more vampires.

“Derek, we need to get back. Ashlyn sent me a mindlink. I can’t get it back.” I told him. And he nodded. Brandon was in my head asking where we were.

“Brandon, we are going to need some help. We were kind of ambushed, but they were using vampires whose families were being threatened. We killed the two commanders, but now we have all the vampires and rogues to deal with,” I told him.

“I’m leaving Ashlyn with Gamma Ben. Sage should be back in a few minutes. She left to get some towels. Ashlyn is just feeding the baby and then I think she is going to lie down. I’ll be right there.” He answered. And I thanked him before I ended the link.

“Brandon is on his way. Gamma Ben is staying with Ashlyn and our boy.” I told Derek.

“Who’s Gamma Ben?” He asked me, worried.

“Gamma Ben is one of my father’s Gammas. He was also James’ brother.” I told him and he looked shocked.

“So he’s her blood uncle?” He asked, and I nodded.

“And you are sure that she is safe with him? That they are both safe with him?” He asked me.

“Brandon wouldn’t have left them if he didn’t believe they would be safe. Sage is also there, and he would never risk their lives.” I told him and he sighed.

“Fine, but let’s hurry this up. We have a mate and a baby to get back to.”

Ashlyn

I awoke with a start when I didn’t feel baby boy on my chest. I thought maybe I had rolled over, but I was still lying on my back. I sat up, franticly looking around the room.

I didn’t let out the breath I was holding in until I saw Derek walking around the tent, holding his son. I held my hand over my chest, panting. I didn’t realize how scared I was.

“Derek.” I breathed out.

“Babygirl.” He came to sit on the bed with me. I wrapped my arms around his neck, careful not to squish the baby. My cheek was resting against his.

“I’m so glad that you came back to us.” Derek whispered. And I could feel his tears on my cheek.

“I’ve missed you so much. And I’m so glad that I could heal you.” I told him with tears in my eyes. I’ve missed everything about him, his touch, his scent. The way he calls me babygirl.

I looked down at our boy and he was now dressed in a sleeper and he had an actual baby blanket.

“You dressed him?” I asked him, pulling away. I sat on my knees on the bed beside him.

“Sage and Brandon went and bought him some things. He was getting restless with you, so I picked him up and got him dressed. I’ve been walking with him. I didn’t want to wake you just yet.” He told me.

“Thank you.” I whispered to him. I reached my hand up to his cheek and rested my head against his forehead.

“No, thank you. He is perfect.” He whispered. I looked down at our sleeping boy and he truly was perfect. Derek kissed my cheek before he nuzzled his face into my neck.

“Where Mason? And where were you two?” I asked him. Our baby decided at that moment he was starving, and let out a cry. My breasts instantly were full, and I forgot I wasn’t wearing a shirt. I could feel the milk leaking and I let out a groan.

“It’s okay, Babygirl. Lay back and get comfortable and I’ll hand you baby boy. I’ll explain everything that happened while you were sleeping.” Derek gently kissed my lips, and if I didn’t have a crying baby or my boobs leaking, I would have deepened that kiss.

I leaned back on the bed, stacking up the pillows so I sat up and could lean back. I used a few of them to prop my arm up so I wouldn’t have to hold my arm up the whole time I was feeding him.

Derek passed him to me and I cradled him in front of one of my nipples and he instantly took to it. I could see that he latched properly, but it didn’t stop the pain. I winced and scrunched up my nose.

“Babygirl, what’s wrong?” Derek asked me, concerned, snuggled in beside me now.

“It just hurts to start, but it will subside here soon.” I told him.

“Is that normal?” He asked me and I shrugged. I’ve never done this before.

Once the pain had subsided, I was able to focus again. I asked him where Mason was again. Derek leaned down and kissed his son’s head before he explained.

“After we found Tundra, Aurora and our son. We left to get you. Everyone volunteered to come with us and that’s where we were heading when Brandon mindlinked Mason to come back.” He explained.

“So what took you guys so long? Where is Mason now?” I asked him. I was growing impatient now. Something might have happened to Mason, and I was worried.

“They ambushed us when we stopped to discuss what to do. Matt and I were in the sky, so Thor let out a howl and then we flew down. Mason told us you were back at the camp and we agreed to head back. Some vampires and rogues came out from the surrounding trees.” He told me and my heart rate picked up. I knew he was alive, but was he hurt?

“Did Mason get hurt?” I rushed out. I could feel the tears falling down my cheeks.

“What? No, babygirl. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you. No, Mason is fine. None of our men got hurt.” He explained, kissing my temple. I let out a breath and tried to slow down my pounding heart.

“Then where is he?” I breathed out.

“He’s just making a few calls and getting the vampires that we rescued organized.” He told me and I turned my head to look at him.

“What?” I asked him, confused.

“Now, I’ll finish explaining, since you know Mason is safe.” He chuckled, and I pushed my lips into a line.

“Mason and I killed the vampires that were in charge of the so-called ambush. All the others surrendered, and we have been going through everyone. Almost all the vampires had families that were taken and forced to fight. As for the rogues, we are still going through their stories and reasons,” he explained.

“You helped them?” I asked him, and he nodded.

“It’s what you would have wanted.” He told me before kissing my cheek.

“Thank you.” I breathed out. We haven’t been at war in over a 100 years, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t prejudice in our kingdoms. We needed to be an example if we were going to bring the kingdoms together.

Baby boy had finished nursing and was back sleeping. I moved him to my chest and leaned back on the pillows. I rubbed his back while Derek rested his head on my shoulder, watching his boy.

“Have you thought of any names?” He asked me.

“I haven’t. Have you two given him a name?” I asked him.

“No, we were waiting for you. How did you do all that by yourself?” He asked him and I sighed.

“Because I needed to. I needed you both to have him if I didn’t make it back.” I explained.

“Babygirl, we need you. And our son needs you. We need to do this together. You are not alone. Mason had to order some of his men to stay behind to protect the camp. All of them wanted to storm the pack house and rescue you.” Derek told me, and it brought tears to my eyes. I didn’t realize I had made such an impact on people’s lives.

“So, what’s the plan now?” I asked him with a yawn.

“Now, we are going to take you home. We are going to leave some warriors here to finish everything up, but we need to get you and our son checked out. You have put your body through so much.” He said, wrapping his arm around my shoulders, and I snuggled into his chest.

“But what about Susan and Grace?” I asked him. The guilt for what they did to Donny and Brad returned.

“They will no longer be an issue. We have taken most of their men. And Gamma Ben told us you killed the witch that they were working with. Sage explained that any spells she had cast would have vanished with her.” He explained, and I nodded into his chest.

I felt responsible for not having the ability to kill them when I had the chance. I knew my Uncle was right. I was in no condition to kill them, but what if they killed more people? Their deaths will be on me for not stepping up. Again.

“Babygirl, it’s not your fault. You have two mates who love you with everything, a beautiful son, and you have people who love you unconditionally. You don’t have to do this alone. We will find them and we will kill them.” Derek said, leaning down and kissing my head.

“Everything will work out, Babygirl.” He whispered, and I nodded on his chest. I closed my eyes and reached out to Mason.

“Mason, where are you?”

“Baby, you’re awake.”

“I need to see you. Where are you?”
