Wyatt
All our men were ready, but the signal was weak so it took us hours to pinpoint Zionâs exact location. As we were still figuring it out, Jett received the accurate location of where Adira. It was one of the packs under this jurisdiction but far away from the city.
âIs everyone ready?â I asked when I reached the campsite.
âYes sir, if indeed this is Zionâs main pack as we suspect, he wonât survive nor will he escape,â Philipe said.
We had so many elite warriors from the three great packs, my pack, the Lafayetteâs army, and Richardâs warriors, our men were over a total of two thousand and even Adiraâs friend from the marsh was here, looking high as f**k and ready to shed b***d of dark wolves.
My eyes trailed to Azriel, he was worried. He kept pacing up and down, our eyes met and he nodded to me. My eyes trailed to Chance who was in a private discussion with Richard Tarion, and then Aspen and his mate, Janice insisted to come, she is one of the few ladies along with Dalla and Faye who came for this mission despite my refusal.
âMate is close,â my wolf said. â Panic, and scared,â
Rolf was too angry, he couldnât even construct proper sentences. I tried to feel my mate but I couldnât, it was just blank and empty, like she didnât exist so how come he could? I surveyed the territory, letting my wolf take over.
I turned back when I felt people following me, it was Chance and Azriel.
âMy wolf⦠he says Rachel is close by and I can smell the baby,â Chance said, unsure. We continued to look until we stopped when we heard voices and the engine of the car. We rushed to the sound and I saw her⦠My stunning mate. I was too focused on her to notice that she was growling in warning at the dozen of dark wolves that were barring their teeth and approaching her. It wasnât planned but Azriel, Chance, and I got into action and lunged at the wolves. I tore one apart and threw its body to the nearest tree.
âWyatt,â Adira sounded relieved. The dark wolves jumped at us, trying to kill us but we fought them intrepidly, and soon, we were depleted them and others retreated. Time seemed to slow when I finally faced my Adira. A huge smile broke on her lips and tears rolled down her pretty face.
âHi, baby,â I breathed.
âHey,â her voice was hoarse and she ran into my arms, I held her tightly for a long time, I didnât want to part from her ever. A scream made us pull apart though, and only did I notice Rachel, she was in sitting with her legs out of the car, and gripping Chanceâs arm like she wanted to yank it out.
âThe baby is coming,â Adira told me.
âHere, now? Canât you tell it in?â Azriel took the words right out of my mouth. The glare that Rachel gave him made an alpha step back, hell, even it startled me.
âOkay, love, relax. Remember what the doctor said, deep breaths,â Chance was trying to stay calm.
âDEEP BREATHES?â she screamed in pain. â Iâm about to have a f*****g baby in the middle of nowhere and youâre telling me to relax, are you mental!â she growled at him.
âSorry, I was-â
âStop giving stupid suggestions!â women in labor are not a pretty sight, at all. I mind-linked some of the doctors on the team to come here, itâs a good thing there are medical practitioners among us.
âI canât hold it,â Rachel cried, we all stared at her, not knowing what to do.
âOkay, um, Rachel I think you need to push,â Adira said, panicked.
âYou think I donât know that, miss smarty panties? I canât even not push because I can f*****g feel his head!â Rachel snapped, making my woman raise her hand and frown.
âI was only trying to help,â she whispered and I kissed her temple.
âI know, baby,â I told her. Chance crouched down.
âWhat are you doing?â Azriel asked.
âDelivering my son before he dies,â he said.
Adira went beside Rachel, comforting her as she pushed her baby out. Chance seemed to know what he was doing so Azriel and I were just watching them on the sidelines.
âThatâs⦠I canât look,â Azriel stumbled, falling on his a*s. He looked like he was about to faint and I laughed out loud at him, making Rachel growl at me.
The medical practitioners were taking a long time to arrive, our scents must have confused them because they were everyone in the area.
âRachel, weâre almost there, just one more push and⦠Yes, heâs here,â Chance breathed, smiling from ear to ear as the cries of a new baby resounded in the forest. I immediately took off my cardigan and passed it to Adira who gave it to Chance to wrap the baby in it.
âOh goddess, heâs too precious,â Rachel said weakly. She was tired.
âGood job, Rachel,â Chance praised her and gave her the baby. She kissed him and closed her eyes. The team had just arrived and Dalla and the girls rushed to the baby with blankets, gushing over the newborn.
âSo much b***d,â Faye murmured and fainted. Azriel carried her and took her in the car.
A few minutes later, the doctors ran their tests on both mother and newborn child, they were alright but needed plenty of rest.
âChance, you should take them home,â I said, he seemed to hesitate, not wanting to abandon the mission but he had a son who needed him. He nodded at last.
âAnd her?â he frowned at Faye in the car.
âJust take her back too,â Azriel said, shaking his head. I hugged my mate and held her shoulder, knowing she will protests what I was about to say.
âNo Wyatt, Iâm not leaving you,â she said vehemently. Adira was weak and pale. â I want to stay and fight with you, please,â
âI know and I want that too but you are in no condition to, I need you to go get checked at the hospital okay?â I told her gently, my eyes going to the neck where that bastard sunk his teeth in. I would enjoy killing him.
âPlease, baby. I want you to go, Iâll be fine, I promise,â
âZion has a sorcerer, and he wants to kill you so that he can keep me,â she cried, I wiped away her tears with my thumb.
