~Kenzie~

I stared at Amber or the person that was supposed to be Amber. I never expected who was standing in my front. This person looks...old. I'm sure Amber is not older than me by much,maybe a few years but she is looking ten years older than me.

She was dressed in her usual slutty revealing clothes and a six inches heel. Who wears heel in the woods? Amber obviously. She looked at me with a smile but you could see the contempt in her eyes. I tried my best not to flinch, I'm way too familiar with that look. It's the look I get when I do something wrong. It was the look i got when I wore a gown she threw away. In my defense,it was not my fault that the cloth fitted me better than her.

"What the fuck are you doing here?"Jason bellowed. I shifted closer to him a little bit. Fudge! This visit was unexpected. No one prepared me for this.

She smiled at Jason and dragged her cloth down a little bit...well not a little. Her breast were practically out.

This...this fudging shameless creature from another planet! What the heck does she think she's doing. This is my man! My fudging man.

I stood in front of her and put on what I think was my best mean face.

"Back off old lady. This is my man. Now what the fudge do you think you are doing here?" I said. Darn! I need to tell Jasmine to teach me how to be mean. I'm really doing a poor job,a very poor job.

Amber squared her shoulders and moved closer to me. I should have done that.

"Who do you think you are talking to. Do you think because another pack accepted you and gave you clothes;that you have the right to talk to me? Have you forgotten your manners and place? No fucking way girl. You know better. You are just a murderer" She spat out.

Fudge! Why did that hurt. I thought that they had no power over me again,but I was wrong. Amber smirked as she looked at me. She still knew how to hurt me. She hasn't forgotten.

"I didn't not kill my parents. You know that,your pack knew t-that" I said,my voice breaking at the end. I don't like this feeling.

'J-jay' I mind linked Jason. I'm not trying to rely on him to solve my problems...maybe I am,but it's just a little bit. My weak point is when someone calls me a murderer. I don't like it.

Jason took the hint because he held my hand and stood before me with a scowl and a mean look on his face that could bring a grown man to his knees.

"I might tolerate you coming to my pack unannounced and uninvited,but I won't fucking tolerate you coming here and calling my MATE a murderer. Don't you have fear?" Jason growled out. Emphasising on the mate part.

Amber's face displayed her shock. This beach didn't believe that I'd get a mate at all,talk more of an Alpha.

She quickly tried to hide the panic in her eyes,but I already saw it. She smiled sluttily and started blinking her eyes at Jason. Is she trying to be sexy or is there a fly there?. I looked at Jason's face to see that he's wore the same confused look as mine.

"I'm so sorry Alpha" She drawled. Okay! " I didn't know the bitc...that she's your mate. I just thought I'd come and see the person that is getting Daddy so worked up and I must say you are very very sexy" She said and winked at Jason.

Okay! I can't take it anymore.

"Back off bitch. He's mine" I said with a growl that I didn't think I was capable of emitting.

She was about to comment when Jason growled out.

"She said back off bitch. I'm her's" He said,clearly enjoying the part that I claimed him. This is just the time to blush Kenzie. Focus.

Amber's mood turned sour drastically. I could feel the anger she was emitting in waves.

"You guys don't know what you've just done. I came here to help you guys,but I'm no longer going to do that. Daddy Is coming for you guys, he's coming with many,many rogues and you can't do shit about it. You both will wish you never did this to me. Watch and see. And as for you, he's just managing you for the time being. He'll meet a better person and leave you for her"She said with a scornful look and turned to leave.

I turned to Jason with fear. I don't know if I should take her words seriously or if she's joking. I hope she's joking.

"She's not really serious right?" I asked with fear. Please tell me she's joking.

Jason didn't say anything,but the look on his face said it all. Amber was not joking. She was fudging serious,her useless bastard of a father is going to attack a pack full of innocent people all because of me.

I felt Jason's hands on my faces and looked up to him. His face was blurry,why is his face blurry? I blinked rapidly to get a clear view of him. Fat tears rolled down my cheeks and I tried to rub it away,but Jason was already doing it.

"I'll try my best to keep you safe love and I'll never leave you for another person. That girl is just a mean fucking bitch"He said with a pained look on his face.

I'm not really worried about Jason leaving me, he's too smitten to do that.

I'm not even worried about myself. I mean I had the opportunity to experience a love-filled-life after what I went through and that's more than enough,but the thought of Jason and his pack getting hurt was very painful to think about.

I did my best in telling Jason and the others what I could remember about the pack. I knew some hidden places that no one In the pack knew about. It was where I went to avoid beatings.

"I know you'll do just that,but what about the pack?" I asked. This was just like a deja Vu of what happened to my parents. I froze at that. My parents never made it alive. The rogues killed them.

"We have a safe house love. The pack members that can't fight will stay there" Jason said while running my shoulders as if to comfort me. We also had a safe house I my dad's pack,but no one survived. That thought knocked out the airs from my lungs. I could have fallen if Jason wasn't holding me. Sobs wracked through my bodies as I tried but failed to remove any depressing thoughts from my head.

I was still crying when I felt myself being carried. I buried my head in Jason's chest and let the sound of his heartbeat soothe me.

' I'll protect you and the pack love. I will.'

*†*

Jason managed to convince me that all was well,but to tell the truth; I'm not so sure. It's been three days since Amber came and Jason has been working harder than ever. I think he's trying to make sure everything is okay. I don't like that he's working so hard nowadays,but it's kind of my fault.

I came to Learn that rogues also attacked this pack five years ago. The rogues killed Jason's mom and made Jason's dad really depressed. When I learnt the story from Jason,I cried so much. I found out that we had some things in common. We both lost something to the rogues and we are sure as hell not going to lose another.

I've been trying to learn how to defend myself online. I've gotten the basics,I think. It's just that I don't have anyone to practice with. Jason has not been home lately and no one is allowed out for their own safety. We don't know when the rogues will attack so we are being cautious.

I've built...or more like tried to build something I could spar with. It was always falling apart so I'm trying to add something stronger.

I worked out for about an hour before I got tired and stopped. I've also learnt how to tie knots and loose knots. You don't know when it'll come in handy. I'm also trying to learn how to throw knives. Since Jason won't let me out of the house...for my own safety,I figured I could teach myself. I kept the knife I used for practice in my pocket. It was foldable,so there was no way it'll hurt me.

I'm wearing one of Jason's T-shirt and I'm reading a book on self defence. My mind was not in the book I was reading at all. I'm just doing it to escape boredom. I was flipping the page and was just staring at the pictures when I heard a knock on the door.

Huh! Who could it be?

"Who's there?" I asked warily. No one except warriors were allowed outside and I'm sure as hell that Jason wouldn't knock on the door.

"S'Zayn" A very small voice whispered. I wouldn't have heard it if I wasn't a werewolf.

Zayn? What's he doing here. He shouldn't be out here,he should be with Avery.

I quickly rushed to the door and looked through the peep hole,but no one was there. Silly me,Zayn was a kid and is therefore not tall enough for me to see him.

"Are you okay hon" I asked as I opened the door. I froze as I did because of what was in front of me was shocking.

Zayn was standing there with years streaming down his face. The shocking part was the gun that was being pointed to his head. By Sean.

Oh my gosh! I knew there was something off about this guy,but I never expected he would stoop this low. Zayn is just a kid. Fear gripped me as I watched Zayn shake with sobs.

"K-ken ken" Zayn said with fear in his voice. Fudge! The poor kid. Sean must've threatened the little guy to do this. Darn!

"Quiet kid" Shane said,pushing Zayn roughly into the room. I quickly caught Zayn before he could fall and held his to my chest. This poor kid is so terrified.

I carried him and stood up,burying his face into my neck. I glared at Sean so hard that he looked away. He could have injured Zayn.

"You are okay honey,you are okay" I whispered to him. He buried his face into my neck as his sobs reduced a little bit.

Shane looked bored as he came in and locked the door behind him.

"You know,I never wanted to do this,but you and your fucking mate killed my mum. Sharon told me she died, that the Alpha killed her. She was my everything and you J-just just took her away from me" Shane said,his voice breaking.

I almost felt pity for the guy,but he was an animal. Who uses a fudging kid to lure someone or speak to someone.

Zayn buried his face deeper into my neck and I held him tighter,his sobs have reduced to just sniffles and he was almost asleep. The crying must have wrung out all the strength from him. Poor little guy. I covered his ears as I spoke to Sean.

"Jason didn't have a choice,Sean. Did Sharon tell you that your mum tried to kill me and Jordan? Did she? Your mum shot me Sean"

Sean looked at me like he wanted to kill me,he didn't believe me.

"Shut your fucking mouth bitch. My mum would never do such a thing. She was never like that" He shouted. He was waving the gun carelessly and spit was flying from his mouth.

"I swear Sean. If you don't believe me I can show you the scar" I said as I gently moved Zayn to my other side so I could show him my gun shot wound. It never healed completely. The skin there was an angry red.

Sean looked at it in shock and was whispering 'it's a lie' over and over again.

"Sharon didn't tell me that. W-why didn't she t-tell me that?" He said as tears rolled down his cheeks.

I felt sorry for him because he didn't know what his mum did. It must be had for him to believe because who's mum must've not been a crazy lunatic to him.

"Why don't you put the gun down,Sean? Please" I said with the gentlest voice I had and it worked. Sean put the gun down gently,but he shook his head.

"It's too late. It's too late. I'm meant to take you outside with me or else they'll start attacking the pack. They've paid me already and and they'll kill me if I don't bring you out" Sean said while sobbing loudly.

Fudge!

I could either follow him or let them attack the pack and the second is not an option. I gulped loudly and ignored Sean as he was numbing 'sorry'. I don't have the time for that now.

I summoned all the courage I could and looked at Sean.

"I'll do it, but you are sure that they won't hurt anyone?" I asked him. I needed to be sure.

Sean nodded his head rapidly.

"I swear they won't. They are scared of the pack warriors and they won't want to attack and fail" He rushed out.

Good! It's good that they are scared of the warriors,but I won't want them to hurt anyone. There's no way they'll fight and no one will get injured.

I looked at Zayn and saw that he was still sleeping. We didn't wake him up with our banter. Thank goodness.

I carried him gently to me and Jason's room and dropped the stiffie he gave me when I was in the hospital by his side.

I blew out a deep breath and walked towards the door. I was about to go when I saw the bobby pins Jason gave me by the lamp stand. I picked it up and put it in my hair and I also took Jason's hoodie. I need something of his to be with me.

Tears slipped down my cheeks as I left our room. This might be he last time that I'd be hear. I might not survive what they'll do to me,but I'm grateful for the moment I shared with Jason. I don't want to mind link Jason because if I do;he would come here and stop me from leaving and that will endanger the pack.

I covered my mouth as I walked towards Sean.

"Let's go"

Sean looked at me with pity. Wiping his face and snotty nose,he whispered 'sorry' one more time and squared his shoulders. His face lost all emotions as he lead me outside.

I felt sorry for him. He was too young to be doing this. Too young.

He lead me outside and everywhere was quiet. He lead me through a corner that there was empty,there were no guards there. Fudge! The con of staying indoors.

We got close to the pack borders and the guards were on the floor,two of them. A used syringe was lying beside each of them. Sean pointed the gun to my head when we got near and I gasped. My heart was beating so fast and I didn't know what to do. I choked on a sob when I saw the bastard,Uncle Frederick. He was grinning as if he won a lottery.

"Fucking finally. The bitch returns with just a little cash. I should have done this a very long time ago. Good job son. Now come make me money whore" He said to me.

I started sobbing. I wish this moment never came. I don't want to leave Jason,but that will be selfish of me. If I stay I'll end up putting the pack in danger. So I must do this.

"Shut the fuck up" He shouted on my face and I quickly held in my sobs.

A bag was put over my head and I was being lead somewhere. The hand that was on me was making my skin crawl. I was being pushed roughly and I was kept in what seems like the trunk of a car. It stinks too.

I gasped when I felt a prick on my neck. Oh my gosh,they are drugging me.

'I l-love you Jason. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I'm glad that I'm doing this to keep you and the pack safe. Just know that you mean a lot to me and I...I love you so much,it hurts sometimes. Take care of yourself and I'm sorry if I'm hurting you' I mind linked Jason.

I heard a very loud growl before everything became dark.

Hey guys,sorry for the wait. What do you guys think of this chapter?

The bastard took Kenzie! What do you think of Sean's character and should he be punished or forgiven?.

I think it's Sharon's fault for not telling him the real truth. He was close to his mum and never experienced her crazy self,so it's not his fault. And he should be pardoned a little for that part. For the part concerning Zayn though,he should be punished for that. He terrified a poor little guy and that is not good at all.

Comment your thoughts and don't forget to vote for the chapter.
