**Morton POV: **
While Seth is taking Sol out for yet another date. I am walking the border of the pack lands. Seth is a good guy hell he is my best friend. I didn't want them dating at first but my dear sister ripped me a new one. She said she deserves to get a second chance at happiness and that I better not ruin it for her.
Or she will take her inheritance and leave me forever. It's not that I don't want her to be happy it's that just want her safe. Being a Luna or even a female Beta is dangerous they are the first target for enemies. Being a Betas sister, she has a target on her back any way I just didn't want that target to get bigger.
Ever since Seth saw Stephan on the lands, I have been walking around trying to find out how he got in. When he was exiled, he changed the patrol shifts and routes. As I get closer to the crypt I smell lavender, and honey with a mixture of Stephan. I have no idea where it is coming from.
But I am on full alert he could be nearby. As the wind continues to blow, I follow the scent. Dez is jumping up and down in my head giving me a damn headache. Getting closer to the crypt I hear someone crying. As soon as I turn the corner, I see a woman sitting in a fetal position crying.
"MATE", Dez says in my ear. I run to the woman wanting to pick her up bridal style and hug her tightly. But I stop in my steps. She looks horrible. Battered and beaten
"HELP...SOMEBODY", she screams. Then I realize she is human and not a wolf.
"She is carrying another wolfs pup", Dez says with a growl.
"You are scaring her calm down. Look at her she looks dirty and hungry. Her pregnancy might be a forced one. Let's take her to the hospital and get her checked out and go from there", I said to him while looking at my mate.
"My name is Morton, and you are on Grip Moon pack territory I am the Beta here. Please let me take you to our pack hospital", I say with pleading eyes.
"Yo...you promise you won't hurt me or my baby?", she asked with pleading eyes.
"I could never hurt you. And as for your baby, I will not hurt it either please I just want to help you", I say.
She nods and follows me to the hospital. I mind link the doctor ahead to inform him that I am bringing a woman to see him. I steal glances at her a notice she has a black eye and a busted lip. It was hard trying to hold back Dez, he wanted to murder whoever did this to his mate I do as well.
“She smells like another wolf. Maybe he did this to her”, Dez said.
“Whoever he is the moment he touched her he signed his death warrant", I said with a low growl.
What kind of person would beat up a pregnant woman? I should contact Seth, but I don't want to ruin his date with Sol. I will tell him once the woman is treated. Once at the hospital, Doctor Mo greet us with his mate nurse Daisy. Daisy takes the woman inside the room to check on her. She helped her get undressed when she is done Doctor Mo goes in and treats her all I can do is wait for them to come out.
"She will be okay, our mate is strong I can tell", Dez said trying to cheer both of us up.
"Whoever has hurt her will be found and executed slowly", I reply to Dez.
I watch as nurses bring in different medical equipment. All of which is scaring the hell out of me. I gave the order for an extra patrol near the place I found her. And also told them to capture and not kill anyone who is not a part of this pack lurking around. Hopefully whoever did this to her will come looking for her. I pray to the Goddess they do so I can crush him.
“How is she doc?”, I asked.
“Beta whoever did this to her was not human. She smells of a wolf. And I hate to say it that her scent smells familiar to me”, doctor Mo said with a sad look on his face.
“And that scent is?”, I asked confused.
“Maybe we should wait for the Alpha to come back", he said and that confused the hell out of me.
“Is she going to be, okay?’, I asked.
“Yes, she is. And the baby will be as well”, he said.
“How far is she?”, I asked.
“She said one month. But being that she is pregnant by a wolf it's more like two months”, he said.
“Thanks, doctor”, I said.
“Beta whoever did this was careful enough to not hurt the pup. All of her wounds are on her face and upper arms. None are below her neck”, he said.
“Meaning?", I asked confessed.
“He aimed carefully enough to not accidentally hurt the pup. So, he might come looking for her to take her back”, he said.
“I am hoping he does doc. Anyone that can do this to a woman, a pregnant woman does deserve to live", I said.
I sit next to her bed. She is knocked out. I know she is tired. Dez and I focus on her stomach and the pup has a strong heartbeat. I have an idea who did this as well as who the father of the pup is. I just need for her to confirm it. I hate that Seth had to cut his date with Sol short but he needs to get there fast. I also wonder how will he take all of this. If my guess is right then shit is going to get more complicated.
