My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.
Chapter 0622

Everyone is fighting a rogue wolf or two and it is chaos. These wolves are possessed like when Jena and I broke out of captivity. They have no care for their personal well being, they have no mind of their own I don't want to hurt them. Deep down I know this is just another form of abuse and manipulation, but I also can't help the people I care about if I let them live. They are here to do one thing, kill all of us, or I guess all of them and take me captive.

Lil meets up with Jena and I and it's like old times running missions for the Elite Warriors. We fall back into familiar habits and training. We attack head on, not letting anyone get in between us. This triangle formation has probably saved us more times than anything. All sides are covered while we continue in a forward motion while taking out as many rogues as we can. Sierra catches up to us as we approach the section of land that connects our peninsula to the mainland. All the fighting seems to be behind us and a sense of dread drapes over me slowly like thick slime. I want to turn around and run back to my pack members, but my wolf presses us forward. We need to finish this and I can't act like a scared little girl. I need to be the Alpha I was chosen to be.

***"Bitty, where the f*ck are you? I can't see you and your pull is faint. What happened?"***

***"We're on the other side of the fighting, crossing onto the mainland. I can feel the magic coming just past our borders. Jena, Sierra and Lil are with me. Keep working through the rogues. We have this.**** ****The f*ck you do, get your ass back here, Smalls.

***"Dakota, watch your tone. I am not a helpless little girl. Mate or not, I am a warrior who will protect my pack. I am not alone, I have my team with me. The same team that I have been working with for years. You do your job and I will do mine."***

****Tiny, I can barely feel you and it hurts. What is going on?"***

***"You shouldn't be in pain. I'm not leaving or being taken. Handle those f*cking rogues and come after us. This is going to be unpleasant."

"***

I can feel the magic surrounding a grove of trees. The closer we get the more I can see the shimmer of a mirage surrounding them.

****What are you looking at Midge?"*** Lil asks so only the four of us can have this conversation. They, no doubt, heard my fight with my mates, who were too panicked to have a private conversation. ***"Can't you see the shimmer on the trees? That has to be where the Rogue King and Adrielle or both are hiding."

*****

***"Whoa, slow your tits Alpha. We are not running in there blind." LII's wolf jumps in front of me. "We have to get some kind of feel for this place first. Your mates are already going to skin us alive for letting you come out here without them and I am sure Mateo and Sam have expressed similar sentiments."***

""***

***"Sam may have mentioned taking a page out of Mike's book and wants to chain me up when we get back." We all laugh at Sierra, because I wouldn't put it past Sam to try or Sierra to enjoy it.

***"Can you guys see it though? That's my biggest question right now. If I'm the only one who can see the magic, then maybe I'm the only one who can get past it."***

***"You can stop that train right now. You may be able to put your mates in their places, but that hot Alpha girl routine will not work here. You go in with us or not at all, got it.”***

***"What I was saying, asshole, is that we need to figure out if you can go in with me. I don't have a death wish, Lillian. Can. You. See. The. Magic?"***

**** I feel cold, like something is off, but I don't see anything. What am I looking for?"*** Lil asks.

***"

I see the haze on the trees, but I don't feel anything." Sierra's wolf looks at us.

***"The sound has changed." Jena

steps next to me. "Like when I am here next to you, the only thing I can hear is us. But, back here," She trots about fifteen feet behind me. "I can hear all of you and the warrior's conversations too. I just don't know if that is a Midge thing, a Rogue King proximity thing or a spelf on the areal thing."***

***"Who knows, but we can't wait for the guys. We need to check this out. Now."***

***"Well, you sure as shit aren't

going first, just in case that magic is designed to trap you."*** Lil steps forward ahead of me and every fiber of my being wants to pull her back by her tail and jump in front, but I know she's right, someone else has to test it although the thought that she might get hurt or worse from it makes me want to throw up.

I nod at her and Jena steps in front of me.

***"What are you doing?"*** I can't keep the snark out of my voice.

***"If it's a trap she shouldn't be in there alone and it shouldn't be you. You need to be out here working on how to get us the f*ck back out. I will go in with Lil, if we can pass back through to you, then you and Sierra can follow. If it closes behind you Sierra can still call for backup."***

***"I don't hate this plan.”*** I say begrudgingly. I chose them as my found family when I needed one and now they are my permanent family and my team, I have to trust their judgment now just like every other mission we have ever been on.

Lil steps through first muttering a continuous stream of profanities so I can tell if I can still hear her link on the other side. No problems so far nod at Jena, who moves to the edge of the trees where Lil disappeared. She steps forward and once two paws are past the treeline, she also disappears. I give them a minute to gauge their surroundings and report back.

While we wait, I turn to Sierra. ***"When are you gonna make your announcement? Does Sam know?"***

**** Announce what? What are you talking about?”***

I just look at her waiting for her to come clean. She doesn't usually keep secrets. But the longer my wolf and I look at her the more we realize she has no idea.

****Sierra, when was your heat?"*** My wolf sits on her butt. The other two are muttering to each other on the other side of the magic, I tune them out this is important, especially if we go in there and get captured. She just looks at me for a second and then her wolf's eyes go wide.
