(Lauren's pov)

"Lauren! Lauren!" I hear Sam's frantic voice calling my name in a panic.

I'm about to call out when a hand is clamped over my mouth. "Don't even scream!" The man hisses and his stench makes me want to vomit: He's a rouge. I swing my head back and head butt him in the nose he cries out and recoils and I shout Sam's name over and over. He barrels into the kitchen and I don't miss the look of worry in his eyes as I feel a sharp twisting pain in my neck as I fall to the floor...

(Samson's pov)

I watch in complete shock as she drops to the floor unconscious. "Let her go!" I yell lunging at him he slides out of my way and grabs Lauren pulling her towards him, he picks her up and slings her over his shoulder. I crash into the table and black dots cloud my vision. I don't miss the rouge running across the ground with Lauren...

Twenty minutes later...

I wake and groan at the pain in my back I stand groggily and suddenly realisation hits Lauren was kidnapped. "Charlie! Aaron!" I yell and they race into the kitchen.

"We know we heard screaming we were on our way here when we saw rouges fleeing across the territory one of them had Lauren. We tried to go after them but they were too far ahead!" I growl loudly at their futile attempts at rescuing Lauren.

"But the rouge we interrogated said his master wanted her he never said the name though but after interrogating other rouges we found out his name: Josh" .

That name would haunt me forever, the ten year old I never killed that was his name and know he wants revenge, of course he's not ten anymore he'll be around nineteen. "I need to find out where they've taken here and when I do I'll kill him!" I snarl and leave the pack house and head to he dungeon to get some answers...

(Lauren's pov)

I wake with my hands above my head and I look up to see I'm chained to a beam and am dangling a few feet above the ground. "I thought you'd never wake up." A deep voice says and walks into my line of vision. "I'm Josh and you are?" He grips my chin and tilts my head up so I'm forced to look at him.

"None of your God damned business!" I spit at him this fuck kidnapped me! He slaps me across the face growling lowly.

"Do not speak to me like that!" He growls. "You will learn your place bitch!" He spits.

"What do you want?" I ask my voice trembling.

"Simple, to hurt the wolf who killed my family which happens to be your mate and I'm very sorry to drag you into this but your just collateral damage but I think I'll make you mine." He says his eyes flick down to my neck.

No! He's going to mark me!

I thrash violently but to no avail, he grips a fistful of my hair and pulls my head at a sharp angle before sinking his teeth into my neck. I scream as a unbearable white hot pain burns my neck. After a moment he pulls away and my neck is throbbing. "There, now I'm going to have to hurt you to get you to submit and I'm sorry." He says and takes a blade off his beta and slices my chest with it I bite my lip as the contact burns my flesh. "This is just the beginning you'll suffer greatly for what Samson did and when I've broken you enough you will be mine." He says and the torture continues...

(Samson's pov)

In my rage I killed most of the rouges in my dungeon I'm down to the last rouge and I've tortured him so bad to obtain information he's disfigured. "Where is Josh keeping her?!" I yell and punch the rouge. I keep this up until he begs me to stop. "Well?!" I roar as he cowers before me.

"Serenity mansion in the underground basement!" He cries and I leave him there as I run to my jeep outside of the dungeon near the pack house.

I climb into my jeep and buckle in as Aaron gets in the passenger seat, Angelica, Thomas and Charlie all get in the back. "Charlie what the hell are they doing here?!" I say angrily.

"I asked them to come! They're going to help us and serenity mansion is a three days drive from here!" She exclaims I nod and press on the gas as we go speeding down the dirt roads. I will find her and kill that son of a bitch even if I have to tear his heart out as it decays in my hand!...

(Three days later:Wednesday, Lauren's pov)

I'd lost count of how long I'd been down here. My body is weak and I had been both physically and emotionally tortured Josh was sadistic in his methods and I felt I couldn't hold on for much longer, hell! I couldn't even shift into my wolf form because not only was I dangling from chains but Josh had injected silver into my body. Tears dripped from my face and mingled with the pool of blood on the floor beneath my feet. "If you would just submit this could all be over." Josh coos his finger tracing the mark on my neck.

"Go kill yourself! I will never submit to you!" I scream defiantly and spit at him. His eyes go dark as his wolf begins to surface, I don't show fear as he steps towards me gripping me by my neck.

"You're testing my patients little bitch and I don't take kindly to defiance ... I think you already know that or do I have to remind you?" He says deathly calm. I'm about to retort when I hear shouting and snarls. "Men! See that this intrusion is dealt with!" Josh snarls as he leaves barking orders.

Lauren?! Sam's voice seeps into my head, I think I'm dreaming until it comes again more urgent.

Lauren?!

Sam?

Lauren! You're alive! I'm coming don't worry we're here!

We?

Me, Aaron, Charlie, Thomas and Angelica.

I'm just barely alive please I need help... I trail off as the link fades and I slip into darkness...

(Samson's pov)

I fight my way through the army of rouges as the link between Lauren and I had shut off because she passed out. I see Josh and instantly I see red. "You sick bastard!" I yell and tackle him to the floor. "Where is she?!" I growl and punch him in his nose.

"She is mine, after all the mark I left on her proves that." He laughs at me as I batter his face.

"Without the mark of her on your neck that claim means nothing! You're sick and I intend to make you die a slow and painful death just like your parents!" I yell and snap his neck rendering him unconscious. I notice many rouges are dead so I drag Josh's carcass to my jeep and put him in the boot before regrouping with the others. "Let's go get my mate back!" I growl as we head into the building and down into the basement...

(Lauren's pov)

I hear the door creak open and fear it's Josh come to inflict more pain upon me. A all to familiar scent tingles my nose and I see Sam edging towards me a mix of sadness and anger in his eyes. I crane my neck to look up at him but wince when the action causes me pain. "Sam?..." I mumble he nods and tears break down my face, "Sam you came!" I cried. He nods and turns to Charlie.

"Get these chains loose." He growls she nods and in one swift motion breaks them. "I said loosen them not break them!" He yells at her.

"I know I just didn't listen." She retorts and turns to me. "Can you walk?" She asks, I shake my head.

"I'm too weak". I reply and wobble as my feet hit the ground Sam curses and picks me up bridal style, I wrap my arms around his neck and snuggle into him and he kisses my head lightly. "Thank you..." I whisper before I black out.

(Samson's pov)

Lauren lies limply in my arms, her hands still around my neck. I turn and walk out of the basement and see two rouges dead on the floor along with their hearts ripped out. Angelica and Thomas sure do a good job mutilating bodies.

Aaron?

Yes alpha?

Get the jeep ready, are Angelica and Thomas there with you?

Yes, the jeep is all ready to go I took the liberty of binding Josh's hands and feet with Wolfsbane laced ropes.

Good I'll be out with Charlie in a minute.

I cut off the link and see Aaron in the jeep along with Angelica and Thomas. I open the back door and place Lauren inside with Thomas, Angelica and Charlie before I close the door and head round to the steering wheel side. "We should get the pack doctor to look at her when we get back" Aaron says and my grip on the wheel tightens as we head down the road.

"No! I will not allow any males of my pack to see her!" I growl and Aaron shrugs.

"The pack nurse then, she needs medical attention she can't stay like this". Aaron says and I nod in agreement. I press harder on the gas turning sharply as we near a bend I swear I'm breaking all the speed limits here!...
