My Claws Were Sharp, But His Love Cut Deeper Novel

Chapter 17 Ill have it back later .

You shouldnt have any more problems with the warriors , but if you do , let me know when I return and Ill handle it .

Thank you , Beta Charlie .

Youre welcome , Luna , I say , making her hiss .

I really thought I might be starting to like you , she mutters , turning to go back into Alphas room .

Keep watch on both of them .

She doesnt leave the pack .

Ill be back soon .

Yes , Beta .

I take a couple of warriors with me , just in case we run into problems .

When we arrive , I see her car , tucked near the forest on the side of a dirt road .

We get out of the car, sniffing the air around us .

Whose scent is that ? one of my warriors asks me .

Im not sure , I say , not able to connect the scent of the wolves with their Alpha .

We carefully approach the car , finding that it looks untouched .

Scan it , I tell them .

Since were constantly in pack wars , nothing comes onto our pack lands that hasnt been scanned for tracking devices and bombs .

I lean down feeling around in the wheel well , finding the key that Yara said Id find .

I toss it to my warriors .

Scan the inside when youre done on the outside .

Give the motor an extra check , I tell them , moving to the trees .

I can smell where Yara said Id find her clothes .

Her scent still lingers, but I know before I pull myself up to the tree limb that her clothes are gone .

I check anyway , and then return to the car .

Anything ? I ask , looking around .

When my warriors dont respond , I turn back .

Theyre holding out five different tracking devices .

Son of a bitch ! I say .

Beta , who is she ? Chapter 17 I have no idea , but Im sure our Alpha will find out .

Warren I come awake with the scent of cinnamon and nutmeg flooding my nose .

My mind is struggling to remember where I am and what happened and then , all of a sudden , it comes flooding back .

I met her , my mate .

Yara ..

I jolt , ready to sit up quickly , to make sure shes still here , but Arric holds me steady .

Easy , Warren .

Youll wake her up , he says , practically purring in my mind .

I open my eyes and see her with her head on the edge of my bed , fast asleep .

Whether it is Arric or just my instincts , my hand is in her hair , gently rubbing her head while she sleeps .

Shes sitting in a chair , leaned over the bed , and she looks terrible uncomfortable .

I look down at my leg and realize that she must have finished putting my bones together while I was asleep , having also sewn my leg closed and wrapped it in bandages .

Thanks , Arric .

Youre the best , I tell my wolf and its true .

Id be dead , hundreds of times over , if it wasnt for the strength of my wolf .

You can thank her this time .

Being with my mate is making me stronger .

The sooner she allows us to mark her , the better , for both of us .

We still have at least three , maybe four Alphas trying to kill us , he says .

Its true .

Brady is only one of several .

I also have Quinton and Thomas fighting against me nearly once a week and then theres Simon .

Alpha Solomon wasnt the kind of man to fight a war just because he enjoyed fighting and I had never given him a reason to fight .

However , his son is a completely different story .

Simons an idiot who has more brawns than brain .

He likes to fight and he enjoys the kill .

Well have to be more careful now when we run through the general areas between the pack lands .

Simon is one who will set booby traps , just so he can watch someone die a slow death .

Hes worse than Brady .

I look down at my mate .

At least I have her now .

The likelihood of my pack surviving , even in these war ridden times , just increased .

Its another reason I cant let her go .

Shes too valuable as a doctor .

but as my mate , shes irreplaceable .

Alpha , youre awake .

How are you feeling ? my Beta says in the mind link , sounding exhausted .

Charlie , whens the last time you slept ? I ask him .

Chapter 17 Awhile , he says .

You need to get some rest .

Im awake now .

I can manage the pack .

Thank you , Alpha , but theres something we need to discuss first .

Whats that ? Id prefer to show you .

Is our Luna still asleep ? he asks .

So , he knew she was in here with me .

She is .

Was she able to get the other warriors treated ? She was .

I hope its okay with you , when she gave an order , even if it was twenty four hours down , I told the warriors they had to follow her orders .

I look back at my mate .

She seems to have an inherent ability to know what is needed , what will strengthen the pack .

Or at least , thats what it seems like to me .

Maybe Im too close to see it clearly .
