The Alpha Who Saved Me

The Alpha Who Saved Me By Stacy Rush Chapter 212



Chapter 212

Emery

Mom’s eyes widen with understanding, but I place my finger over my lips. Only my

mom and Aunt Quinn hear my little secret and I can see the excitement in both of their

eyes. I look up at my mates and they’re all smiling as well. I’m not sure what has our

father’s attention but none of them hear my bit of news. It’s just as well, though, they

will be too over- protective had they heard.

Bea pops in, “The council is here!”

I nod at all three of my aunts and they do their part, the amulets glowing around their

wrists as they hold the wall. Their hands are linked while their eyes are closed. You

can see their lips moving as they chant silently. I feel the wards come down, but the

new ones go up automatically, trapping the enemy between the invisible wall and the

border.

“Do it now!” I tell our parents.

They all take the daggers to our hands and slice them in the center of each palm. The

sting is nothing as the blade releases the blood from within. We automatically form a

circle as we grasp each other’s hands. As our blood drips to the ground, we begin the

chant, softly at first, but as I start to feel a warmth deep inside of me, my voice gets

louder, as does my

mates.

Opening my eyes, I can see a golden hue radiating off my skin, and each of my mates

have their own hue as well.

Decker’s is a black shimmery color, Holden’s is a white shimmery, and Asher’s is a red

one. It’s like smoke as it filters to the center of our circle and joins together, mixing the

colors together before they move upward.

The wind picks up all around us and the ground begins to rumble beneath our feet.

Screams can be heard from the Shikari as one by one I can see them in my mind,

dropping to their knees. They scramble, trying to take hold of their magic that seeps

out from their chests and gets sucked back into the earth. It’s too much for some and

they drop, taking their last breath on foreign soil. I can’t feel sorry for them, they chose

this path and now they must suffer the consequences.

We are only about three quarters of the way through when I start to feel myself waver.

Both Holden and Decker hold tightly onto me, keeping me from collapsing. All of a

sudden, I feel a burst of energy rush through me, and I stand up on my own, my voice

loud and clear until the very last Shikari has been syphoned.

“I felt that! The power surge that went through you; was

that…”

I cut Decker off, “Yes, that was the pup.” I grin.

“I don’t mean to rain on anyone’s parade,” Uncle Declan says as he hurries over, “But

we should probably get to the border so we can drop the wall and see what happens.”

“You’re right,” Holden speaks up, “Ledger and Spencer, will you grab the prisoner and

bring him with you? Try not to kill him on the way over.” My mate chuckles.

“Ten-four, Alpha.” Both of my dad’s say it in unison.

It’s so weird hearing them refer to my mates as Alpha but I guess I had better get

used to it. Just like I’m their Luna, but I know I will always be their baby first and

foremost. Both of my father’s kiss me on the head, congratulating me for

accomplishing what we set out to do. Everyone always wants their parents praise and

I’m not different. Warmth floods me when I hear each of them and then they are gone,

heading to go get Colin.

‘Are you ready, Em?’ Kiki asks anxiously.

Looking back at my mates, I see that they’ve already shifted and are only waiting on

me, ‘Yes Kiki, I’m ready.’

We shift and then the four of us race to the border where everyone else is at. There’s

only about half of the Shikari still standing. According to the other territories, none of

the hunters showed up there, they were all here, and by the looks of it, I’d say that

there were maybe two thousand, but less than a thousand remain standing. None of

the council members stood a chance; they were too old to take the loss of their magic

as it was syphoned out. Magic was all they knew; it was like a mate losing their other

half, only the Shikari were too greedy and only loved their magic.

Out of all the men standing, there is one woman, and it’s one I know because I could

never forget her face. Kiki growls and bares her teeth at the woman. The hunters

stand huddled together, scared shitless with so many wolves surrounding them and

there isn’t anything that they can do about it. The wall is now down and so Kiki walks

slowly towards the woman like she’s stalking her. I have to give it to Layla; she may

be scared but she doesn’t back down.

“Kiki, please don’t!” We hear a familiar voice behind us and

turn to see Bea standing there with pleading eyes.

‘It’s her sister, Kiki. We can’t harm her; Bea has done so much

for us.’

‘Ugh, fine!’ My wolf turns back to Layla and snarls at her one last time, making the

woman jump and then trip over her own feet, landing herself on her ass. Kiki laughs

out loud surprising

the woman and other Shikari around her.

We go back to our mates who have already shifted back. Asher holds an over-sized

shirt out for me, “Thank you, baby.” Kiki says and licks him up the cheek before taking

the shirt between her teeth and going behind a tree.

“You’re welcome, little wolf.” He chuckles and wipes all the

slobber from his face.

When I come back out from behind the tree, I see Bea walking over to her sister.

Layla’s eyes are wide with recognition, “Beatrice?”

“Hello, Layla. It’s been a long time.” Bea states.

Layla throws herself at her older sister and hugs her tight, “Father said that you were

dead!”

“I was dead, to him. He disowned me when I left for a better life. He sent men after

me, and it wasn’t until I came here to America that I could finally be free.” Bea

explains.

“You left me…”

“I tried to take you with me, Layla; you refused. You were too enamored with the Head

Shikari at that time, and couldn’t wait until you could join his harem. Tell me, Layla,

was it all

you ever dreamed of?”

“H-He gave me my son.” Layla stammers.

“Oh yes, a son who is now going to lose his life all because of his sick perversions

over his own niece.” Bea spats.

“What? No, they can’t kill him! He’s my baby!” The woman looks to me, pleading with

her eyes.

At that moment, my own mother steps forward and puts her arm around my

shoulders, “And what about my baby? The one you hit and kicked, leaving bruises all

over her body? What about my baby that you were going to allow to be raped by her

uncle, your own son?” Rani, my mother’s wolf comes forward and growls.

I place my hand on hers, allowing my aura to seep in and calm her down. I smile at

her, thanking her for standing up for me. I turn back to Layla and then point to my

aunts, “Did you and Colin know that he also had three sisters?”

Layla has a strange look upon her face as she stares at all three women, “How, by

who?”

“By me,” my grandmother states as she steps forward, “His mate, the woman he a

kept secret for years because he couldn’t give me up.”

“That’s a lie, Marko had no woman! Why would he hide you?” Layla scoffs.

“Because I’m a shifter and it was forbidden, but he didn’t care. My son, our son, had to

wear a silver bracelet for years in order to keep his wolf at bay. Had my son not killed

Marko, I would still be living in the basement at the Hastings Family

Home.”

“Y-You were the one that lived down there?” Layla asks disbelievingly. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Yes, me and my three daughters, for about twenty-four, years.” My grandmother’s

voice hardens, “You call my son a traitor, but you were in love with one your whole life

and you fathered his son.” My fathers are just getting to the border with Colin still in

chains as she ends her sentence.

“Mother?” Colin calls out.

“Colin!”

“Don’t listen to anything they say! Everything out of their mouths are lies!” He sneers.

My aunt Sasha, who is right around the same age as Colin steps out in front of him

and Colin’s eyes go as round as saucers. Gasps throughout the Shikari are heard all

around, “No, it can’t be!” Colin himself gasps at what is almost his mirror image in

female form.
