Chapter Forty-Seven

Face swollen, eyelids stuck closed by dried blood and the pounding of blood rushing in my ears are only some of the minor injuries I am currently sporting right now, thankfully I am used to blocking my mind from pain so I am able to push myself into listening to the squabbling three who are somewhere nearby. I know one of them is the vampire who has been torturing me but I'm not sure about the two female voices, one of them feels like they have magic though and probably the cause of the block on me and the reason why I cannot feel Val.

"Did you manage to get anything from her?"

"No. Have you got the potion, Imagine?"

"Gregory should be back. Do you think he has blown his cover trying to get that brat?"

"Lana, stop worrying. No one knows that the pup is a distant relative of the royals, well dead royals." Wait a moment Scott is a distant relative of mine, that would explain why I have always been drawn towards him. Why do they want him?

"Once he's gone there only be the heir left. Well, if he is still alive." They want to kill Scott that is not happening I need to do something.

"They say that they are close to finding him. Once his gone there will be no one to get in our way."

"The packs are clueless as it is. I don't see the point hunting any of the royal line anymore."

"Because the prophecy."

"You believe in that old thing?"

"I think I can hear Gregory." His footsteps pounding on the floorboard's overhead are clear but what they don't know is that he has been followed I can just feel the presence of my brother.

"Sammy," I push through the block and cry out in pain.

"Now you feel the pain. You must be back with us then. I thought you had died."

"Imagine, give her that potion. Hopefully we can finally get some answers."

"Will…I…" I mumble incoherently finding it hard to speak with the damage they've done.

"Heal her slightly too. Enough so she can answer our questions."

'Sammy' tears leak my eyes 'Why? Not safe.'

'Stop Jenni. I had to come…find you.'

'Not safe.'

"I smell wolves."

"Of course, you do. I'm a wolf, idiot."

"No, you stupid bitch. Not you or Gregory not even her," he sneers "I smell. Shit, Alphas."

"Have you-"

"Gregory, you idiot you were followed."

"I can't have been. I left when they were in the conference room coming up with a plan to find her. Ethan kept watch to make sure I wasn't followed."

'Jenni…how…many?'

'Vamp, witch, two wolf shifters that I know of. Know you here.' I repeat to make sure he gets it.

'Got it, vampire, witch, two wolf shifters' his connection strengthening the closer he gets.

'Yes. Know you are here.'

"Hurry we cannot be found."

"We should kill her."

"Shame, she would have made a good pet."

JET POV

Getting called back from the search is killing me, Shadow is attached to Jenni and I hope it means that she will be our mate, but we won't know until I turn eighteen.

"Jet, come on Alpha Chris is right we need to rest and regroup, son"

"Dad. We need to find her" I snarl at him.

"We will. Come on, they are organising a meeting in the conference room to work out the next steps. Everyone is doing everything they can to get her back."

Heading into the conference room of the Evergreen Forest pack I am stunned to find it almost empty. "Thought you said everyone-"

"Perfect your all here." Looking around the room I'm confused there is only a few of us in here what is Alpha Joe on about. "Okay, we have already had the main meeting and now this is the team that will bring Jenni back. Everyone in this room are people we trust." Wait what? People in this room, that means-

"Unfortunately, we are led to believe there is spies in our packs." Alpha Chris continues.

"Who?" Cayden snaps.

"Son at the moment-"

"They took her" he growls, I thought he hated her, yet looking at his face he is furious perhaps it could be because someone took one of his pack members.

"I know and you are wasting time we need to get moving. Sam here is coming with us too."

"We will be following Gregory from my pack but to do this he must not suspect anything. Sam will follow him to stop him suspecting anything with a GPS tracker so we can follow behind without him picking up our scents." Chris tells us.

"Your putting Sam in danger" I snarl.

"This is my choice Jet and you will not stop me. I going to head out Alpha, Connor says he is on the move." Storming out the room he makes sure the door closes behind him.

"You're using the pups" Dad snaps finally finding his voice.

"We do not have the time to argue you about this. You're either in this or not and if you're not you need to shut up as we don't have much time." Alpha Joe growls, what does he mean we don't have much time? I can see the exact same panic I feel mirrored into everyone's faces around me in the room and we all fall in line.

"Now that is settled. We do not know what we are walking into and need to be prepared for anything. The clinic is prepared for anything on our return. Half us will shift and the other half will take the SUV out front. It is already packed ready with weapons and emergency kits. Now let's go."

Moving as a unit we head out of the door, Dad and me heading with Alpha Chris towards the SUV with one of the warriors from Alpha Joe's pack called Kyle. The others shift and bound off into the forest and I just hope we can get to her in time and that she is okay. Watching the tracker dot on the display I realise that Sam is making a lot of ground in little time and wonder how far we are going to have to go until we find where she is hidden.
