Stay

Chapter Thirteen

WARNING: NOT EDITED

~ I am so lucky to have such as pretty and innocent mate. I promise we will be very happy together, my love. After this war is done and Colt is long gone, we can live together happily. I can already imagine it: us living quietly away from all the commotion with our beautiful children. It will be perfect. ~

Chapter Thirteen ~ Colt's POV

Dead bodies littered the ground, their blood seeping into the dirt beneath them. I grimaced at the horrible metallic smell of blood filling the air. I looked down at my feet, where a beaten rogue was trembling. He looked no older than fourteen, so I didn't have the heart to kill him. I guessed he barley understood what was happening or who he was fighting for. I grabbed him by the neck with my bloodied hands, and raised him off the ground till we were face to face.

"You have a lot of explaining to do, pup," I growled.

Not trusting his voice, the pup merely nodded his head in understanding. I threw him to the ground once more before looking over my surrounding. Even though we had killed all the rogues, there probably was a second wave of rogues, hiding right outside the territory. I couldn't let my guard down. But first things first, I had to figure out where Amity was.

The wolf inside was howling like crazy, wanting to be let out and search for my mate. I did't let him though because Amity was probably in safe hands.

"Follow me," I barked at the fourteen year old.

He immediately began to follow me towards the pack house, making sure to keep his distance. I saw him take a quick scan of the area, and I realized what he was about to do.

"Don't even try to run. I'll have you back within a minute with your throat ripped out."

Gulping audibly, the boy paled but fortunately nodded. We continued towards the pack house, making sure not to step on the dead rogues. They were not match for my fighters and I. Finally when we arrived, I noticed the pack house was overflowing with my pack members. At the sight of me, everyone erupted into cheers, knowing their Alpha was okay but I didn't care. I wanted my Amity. I burst through the crowd of pack numbers, to see Blake and Dakota standing at the front door.

"What is happening?" Dakota says, her voice laced with fear.

Dakota looked flustered and tired with her hair all over the place and bloodshot eyes most likley from crying.

"Rogue attack," I mutter,"There were only a few rogues and we took care of them, but I still suspect that there are many more."

"Colt, where is Amity?" Blake asks this time.

"Isn't she with you?" I say suddenly getting worried.

Blake and Dakota shake there head. God, this is not good. I look around once more and realize that Chase, Annie, and my sister are also not present. Did they all take shelter somewhere?

"Wait, where is also Charlotte, Annie, and Chase," Dakota says realizing too.

I turn around to one of my pack members.

"Check the jailhouse for my mate and sister," I order him.

Nodding, the man instantly started sprinting away. I then turn to the whimpering rogue next to me. Dakota notices the boy , and lifts her nose into the air, smelling his scent. Realizing he was a rouge, she grabs him by the front of his shirt and growls.

"Chase," she snarls.

I raise an eyebrow of confusion. Chase? This boy definetley wasn't Chase.

"The pup! He is realted to Chase!" Dakota clarifies.

My eyes widen in surprise. How could I have not have know that. I take a good long look at the boy. He has sandy blonde hair and bright blue eyes just like Chase, his scent is also remarkably similar to Chase's.

"I-I'm Elliot. Chase's brother," the boy stutters as Dakota puts him down.

What the heck? Chase's brother? I never knew Chase had a brother! He told me that he ran away from the his pack because their Alpha didn't not treat everyone fairly and ruled horribly. Even if this was Chase's brother, why was he apart of this group of rouges at such a young age?

"But, your're a rogue," I point out.

Elliot doesn't say anything. He purses his lips before looking down at the ground. I growl rips from my chest.

"Don't ignore me, boy. Answer my question. I don't care if you are Chase's brother. I wil kill you," I say, baring my canine teeth.

Taking a step back, Elliot whimpers. He looks at me for a moment, contemplating the consequences before nodding.

"I'll explain everything."

Charlotte's POV

"You better have a good reason for all of this, Chase," I growl as my mate leads me into a spacious bedroom.

Chase run his long fingers through his golden hair before sitting down onto the bed, a look of complete hopelessness plastered across his gorgeous face.

Snap out of it, Charlotte. He betrayed you and your whole pack. It doesn't matter if he is your mate, he broke your trust.

"I-I don't know where to begin."

If possible, I got even angrier. I wanted answers right now, and I couldn't wait. At this very moment, my pack was being attacked by rogues and Amity was who-know's-where with Annie and our other deranged kidnapper.

"Chase. Just start talking because I swear-."

"I did it all to keep him safe, Charlotte. Every single thing I did was to keep him safe, to keep him innocent," He said with his head bowed towards the floor.

I rose an eyebrow. Exactly who was Chase trying to keep safe? 

"I need further explanation. I don't understand."

"My brother, Elliot," Chase clarified,"At our old pack, it wasn't good. Our Alpha led us like he was the King, and we were merely slaves. We had to follow his every rule no matter how... stupid because if we disobeyed, he wouldn't think twice to snap our necks. So, I did the only thing I could. I took my little brother, Elliot, and just ran. We lived as rogues for two years till we found Annie and her twin sister, Roxie."

The air between us suddenly stilled, leaving me almost breathless. My mind was a complete jumble, trying to connect the dots but all I came up with was a blank.

"But how does that explain what's happening right now? Why are you with these people? What do they want with Amity?"

Chase lifted his head to make eye contact with me.

"The four of knew we couldn't survive on our own, so we began looking for a place that would take us in. That was when Harley found us. He was gathering handfuls of rogues. At the time, I had no idea what his intentions were, but we joined him. He offered us all shelter, food, and training. I didn't know he was exactly like my old pack. After my realization, I tried to find a better place to take Elliot, but Harley told me that if I tried he wouldn't hesitate to kill Elliot. His plans were to become the strongest pack in America with Amity as his Luna."

A light bulb went off in my head.

"So," I drawled, coming to my own conclusion,"Harley made Annie and you go undercover to kidnap Amity. He sounds exactly like those villains in comic books."

"That's basically it, but just like in those comic books, the bad guy always fails. I'm going to make sure that happens."
