FIVE

His words had hit me like a pound of cinderblocks and I felt like I was going to throw up. What did he mean Abel and Marie would get their fun? 'I have to figure this out before tonight when..' My thoughts stopped and a chill went up my spine. 'Three... men...' I continued in my head. I'm so fucked.

Xanders POV

I stormed into the packhouse and took my sweater off before throwing it down on the ground. My fucking mate was going to be raped then killed, and I had absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to stop this shit from happening.

"Dude calm down, we'll figure out how to make your our alpha again and get our luna back." Alexis voice spoke up. When I looked over at Aaron for confirmation, he couldn't even look me in the eye.

"Aaron please."

"In danger or in comfort. In sickness and in health, in better of worse, in love and in life, I pledge my heart, soul, and body, to you my mate and until rejection due us part." Aaron said looking down. He recited the vows two wolves make once they're mated.

"She was my little sister Xander" He paused.

"Once you can figure out how to bring her home, then I'll follow you again." He said then slid the glass door open and shifted mid air before sprinting off.

"Fucking hell." I growled and right when I turned around I toppled over a small body and heard Lincolns soft falling tears.

"Aw I'm sorry bud.. I didn't mean to topple you."

"Mommys going to die..." He said, his words were shakie and tears were rolling down his cheeks and for the first time since this all happened, I had tears down my face too.

"No. Mommy will come back."

James POV

My mind had been racing. How was I supposed to pull this off? I knew what I had to do to get my way in this, but at what expense? Losing Marie, to gain something else? Hurting Xand- Well, that part I don't mind. I just won't finish that thought.

"Alpha James, the Opal Moon pack wishes to greet you and discuss an alliance."

"Wonderful, tell them I'd like to meet today." I said while looking in the mirror and adjusting my tie. I watched as my own smirk slowly turned into a grin as the thought came to me.

"Oh dear Veronica. What plans I have for you."

Veronicas POV

It was night. The only reason I knew was because three men came down and into my cell. I didn't even bother trying to fight back. I stayed leaning against the wall and merely moved my eyes around the cell to watch their movements.

"Come here." One of them said motioning to in front of them while undoing his belt. I didn't listen. I didn't want to, they had to force me if they wanted me to do shit.

"Hey slut, are you fucking deaf and dumb? I said come here!" I looked up at the one who was talking and rolled my eyes knowing this was going to get old real quick and just crawled over in front of him.

"Damn, I only had to repeat myself to make your slutty ass get over here. It's fine though, not on a schedule or anything." He sneered and scoffed.

"Arms behind your back." I obliged. When he pulled out his member, it was thick and long. One of the reasons I hate that we're shifters is this exact reason.

"Open up slut." He growled before grabbing the back of my head. I fought my hardest to rstrain from having to come onto him and the other two men scoffed at my effors and shoved me agasint his member as he thrusted my head back and forth against him at a speed that almost gave me whiplash. He held my head against him until I was nearly suffocating then threw me away from him. I had supported myself on my arms and gasped for breath before an arm wrapped around my hips, lifting me off the ground and then sat me down on the cold concrete, laying against one of the mens body. His hand slipped underneath my shorts, and without warning, three of his fingers entered my treasured spot. Before I could catch myself, a soft moan escaped from my lips and I went to throw a hand over my mouth, but a hand caught both of my small wrists and restrained them behind me.

"Can someone come and occupy her mouth?" The male behind me groaned.

"Fuck you..." I said in a mumble and his three fingers dug into me and my back arched against his.

"What did you say little slut?" He growled quietly in my ears.

"I said.. Fuck you."

"Oh, you asked for it now." He said and threw my body off from his, just for it to be slammed into the third man. I heard a zipper go down and then my shorts were pulled off, and my the back off my g-string was moved just to the point of revealing my parts.

"I wonder how Xander would feel if his bitch was impregnated right before being killed? Shall we find out." He growled and right as he attempted to insert himself into me, a loud cracking noise echoed through the calls and my body was released as I scooted into a far corner and my eyes almost started screming themselves, when-

"Abel fucking Callahan."

"Who gave you permission to use my name, you mangey dog. Rapists have no place for the honor of using my name."

"I thought you wanted that bitch dead."

"What if that was just a facade? What if I'm about to save that WOMAN not a bitch, from four people.?"

"Four?"

"You, your friend over there, Marie, and James."

"I'd like to just see you try Mr. Callahan."

"You know, this shit was way more fun when everyone here was afraid of me." Abel finally said before launching his foot at the man as he flew through the wall. He turned in attempt to reach for the other but stopped dead in his motion at the sight of me being held as a shield, with a knife to my neck.

"Let... Her go.." He said, slowly coming towards us and the knife slowly dug into my neck and I winced my eyes as a sign for him to stop. Abels hand slipped behind his back and he pulled out a knife of his own.

"Hey, stop that.. I will slit her throat..." The man said. Abel swiftly, and quickly sent the knife flying and it flew right past my face, and plunged through the guards throat. As he slowly came down to the ground, the knife held against me slid along my throat and took a chunk out of it, and my legs went numb and the last thing I remember was Abels arms surrounding my body and him taking off his shirt, pressing it to my neck. Then my world went dark.
