Chapter 26–Book 2

##WARNING REALLY DARK THINGS AND LANGUAGE!##

James woke up happy at the idea that today was the day, he was going to have some much-needed

fun. He made his way to the kitchen and made coffee and some eggs. He was singing to the song on

the radio, “Crazy” by Patsy Cline.

Once his eggs were done and sat down at the table with his coffee in hand he looked out the window to

view his toy. He was laughing because it rained twice last night, he must be a soggy mess. When he

saw the tree his toy was supposed to be tied to, he found that there was nothing there.

He ran outside in a frenzy, when he got to the tree there was nothing there except a note on the tree

trunk, which was held there by a wicked

looking knife.

He couldn’t pick up a scent from the note or the knife. The rope and handcuffs were also gone, there

weren’t any tracks to follow.

He ripped the note off the tree, he looked and all that was on it was one sentence.

Justice is coming, swiftly.

James ripped the note up into shreds and let out an angry roar. How dare they invade his private

sanctuary!! NO, NO, NO, This can not happen. His bear took over and shifted as they were running out

into the woods in a fit of rage.

He stopped by the discard pile and climbed down into the ravine. He

dragged Kathy’s wet, rotting, stinking b*dy out and back to the cabin. He propped her up on the porch

in a sick pose, a nice welcome home present for Nova.

James no longer cared what Avery wanted, fuck Avery, he was going to get that Mountain Clan and its

f**king leader. Kill them all and then drag Nova back to the cabin by her f**king hair.

THEY ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!! He was yelling it in his head over and over like a mantra. KILL, KILL

THEM ALL!!. He ran off in the direction of the Mountain Bear Clan territory. If they want a war, then it is

a war they are going to get.

Agent David Whitmore dropped off all the evidence to his two other partners. They were over the moon

and started to process it immediately. David felt like he needed to get back to Jack as soon as possible.

Before he left town though he picked up a dozen red roses for Maggi. 2

He didn’t have a reason for giving her the roses, he just wanted her to have them. It felt right.

Something beautiful for someone beautiful. Every time he thought of her he became warm inside like

the feeling you get arriving home, after a long hard journey.

He got in his car and drove off north to Jacks. As he was driving down the mountain road. He came up

with a plan for the Sheriff to take the fall for it all. There won’t be any mention of James he will simply

disappear from history.

If the Sheriff says that there are people out there who can change into bears, well, we will just say that

he is

a few bee’s short of a hive. Not exactly a lie, anyone who could do what that Sheriff did had to have a

few marbles missing. O

He was coming around a corner when he almost collided with a dark figure. It had crossed the road

and kept going. David knew that it was a huge black bear. He got out his phone but he didn’t have any

bars. He raced off down the road.

It seems that Jack’s plan worked, after all, the asshole has gone into a rage. Thinking that he is a God

and can take on anything that gets in his way. That may have been true for a while, he did seem to sl*p

out of the hands of Justice easily.

However he wasn’t dealing with humans anymore, he was out of his weight class and was too stupid

with arrogance and anger to know it.

That’s it you crazy fuck, run right into Jack’s hands. I just hope I get there ahead of you far enough, So

I have time to pop some popcorn for the show. 2

Everyone was about to leave Jack’s office when another Werewolf came to the door, it was the third

tracker Jessie.

“I rescued the last victim he is in the clan hospital with a wicked concussion, they think he will be alright

but he is going to be there for some time. I also left the note that you had mind linked me to leave.”

Duncan patted him on the back and left along with the other two trackers, to show them where they

could get cleaned up and a meal.

Sam looked at Jack.

*So do you think he is heading here yet?”

I don’t know Sam, he is crazy so that makes him unpredictable, I have my money on the fact that when

he sees that note it will crack what is left of his mind. He will be coming here at full speed thinking he

can take us all

on.”

“What about the Sheriff?”

“The Sheriff, Sam, we leave to David and the FBI. I just want this done, all I can think about is Nova.

What is she doing? What is she wearing? When can I have her back in my arms again?. That bastard

will take no more from me or anyone ever again.”

They noticed that a car was coming up the drive, it was Agent David. Jack thought he was back a little

earlier than expected, he wondered if it had anything to do with the red-haired

Maggi.

The car pulled up and David came running into the house as Jack met him on the stairwell.

“Well my son-in-law, your plan is working, I almost hit that asshole on the road. He is running all out

and heading straight to your territory. He has to be nuts to think he could take you all on. Seriously, he

isn’t even going to get past the sentries.”

Jack took one look at Sam and Sam was off to get things in place and inform everyone what they had

to do.

“David, why don’t you go and stay with Maggi. I am sure she will love the company and the extra

protection of your arms. She is going to love the roses too.”

Jack was grinning at him, David forgot that he grabbed the roses on

Qian Ама his way to warn everyone. He ran his hand through his hair.

“That obvious huh?

“Nova is going to be happy about it and you deserve it, she is a great woman David, don’t let her go.”

“Oh, and David we found the bodies I don’t know if they will much help but with DNA testing you should

be able to identify some of them at least.”

With that, Jack went out the door after Sam to make sure all the arrangements for their new guest

would be in order

David didn’t look forward to that grim task, it had to be done though. Not tonight. Tonight he was going

to be with Maggi. Tomorrow he will call in the team, which should give Jack time to see if there are any

non human remains in that dumpsite.

David grinned and took off in the direction of Maggi’s cabin. The fact that she would need added

protection was kinda funny. That woman-owned more guns than the NRA. 2

He didn’t have to knock at the door, he was staying here too but he wanted to do it right. She answered

the door and he held out the roses to her.

“Something beautiful for a beautiful lady.

She giggled and took the roses, holding the door open for him as he entered. When they were inside

she pulled him to her and k*ssed him. She took off to the kitchen to take care of the roses, leaving

David standing in the hall smiling

Nova felt restless it was getting late

now and she was worried. She had a feeling that something was happening or about to.

She called Jack but he was kinda cryptic about answering her questions directly. She knew he was

protecting her but it was making her mad at the same time.

When she sees Jack again she is going to give him and his bear Brutus a piece of her mind. She will

not be kept in the dark about things that are important or affect the clan. Nor, will she tolerate Jack

putting himself in danger all the time either.

He has her now and someday they will have a family, he is going to have to start thinking in the plural

now instead of just one.

She realized that she was pacing in anger, she sat down and took a deep breath. It was then that she

heard a

voice. 2

“Just relax kid it is going to be alright, our mate is a badass he will get this all straightened out and we

can start having a real family.”

Nova sat there in stunned silence she looked everywhere around the room but she was alone. Who

spoke to her????

“You’re silly, I am right here inside you. My name is Ursa. I am your Bear and you are my human. I

have been awakened by our mate. We won’t shift for a little while yet, I will be with you all the time now

and forever.”

Nova ran down the hallway to Adira’s room in an excited frenzy. Knocking on the door…
