Chapter 73 - Different emotions

**Callums pov**

I lay back on the couch..Cecilia is right..I need to rest..
I think about everything I’ve learned from Tina and what I can use it for..my head is spinning, I can hardly remember last time I slept.
*“Hey, Beacon buddy..we need to rest..we need to be strong in both mind and body to get our girls back..can you help me?”* To the sound of the night outside I feel sleep coming closer a few minutes later.

“Callum..Callum, wake up..” Maya gently pats me on my arm and I sit straight up.
“ Reece will be here soon with the hunters..” She says and take a step back as I stand up.
“ Greta has breakfast ready in the kitchen...you need something to eat, and at least one cup of coffee.”
“Thank you Maya.” I try to muster a smile, but It’s hard..my dreams has been full of images of Hope, both beautiful from my memories and horrible from what she is going through right now.
Once again I feel helpless..I glance at the wall clock when I enter the kitchen, it’s eight o’clock which means that training is in full swing. I accept a cup of coffee from Greta and take the kitchen path up onto the veranda that faces the training area. Kevin, Lucas and Leo is managing the training and from what I can see, they practice quick shifts, which means that there are a lot of naked bodies in the area. But I see it’s only the male warriors which makes me wonder where the female ones are. As if she could read my mind Maya, who followed me out answers my silent question.
“ Olivia took the women for a run.” She speaks without looking at the direction of the training.
“ We have cleared the pack house for the rest of the residents today..only Greta and some of the omegas is here, Zandra will be here to and a few of the high ranked warriors and Joe has clearance..Reece thought it would be better to have a calm surrounding at this point..” I nod as I listen to her. Reece is good at thinking ahead.
“ Callum..can you hear me?..” Hopes voice says in my head.
“Yes, I hear you..baby.. Oh thank you Goddess..we are waiting for two hunters to come here, they are kind of allies..can you give me any clue?” I want to ask her how she is, what they have done to her but at the same time I know that the link can be broken at any moment so I try to keep it matter-of-fact and try to get something that can be helpful.
“ They are moving me between buildings as we speak..I saw a glimpse of the wall on the outside..Its red bricks..and some kind of logo on it..like some kind of crest mark maybe..I didn’t see it very clearly but think it represented two crossed swords in a ring of drops..tears perhaps?..or blood ..of course it’s blood..I smell nature and water..maybe a waterfall..It sounds like they are walking on dirt or gravel so it doesn’t seem to be paved..I’m still locked under metal and can only see straight up, I can’t turn my head.” She understands that I need as much information as possible so she lists everything she can think of.
“I’ll get you out of there..I promise..anything else?”
“ A few more names..all different cars..Mr Landrover seems to be in charge, but he is not the highest in rank. I heard them talking about a Mr Bugatti who will come here with a lot of respect in their voices.. It seems that the price of the car holds the rank.”
“ Good, that’s good baby..are you ok?..How much did they take?”..I asked the question I was so afraid to ask.
“ I’m ok..They haven’t taken anything else since last night. Ok..we’re entering a new room now..I hear machines..what the fuck is this place..Callum..I don’t like the feeling here..I..” The link was abruptly severed.
“Hope?..Baby?..” I didn’t get an answer..she was gone.
“ FUCK!” I scream..making Maya jump.
“ What did she say? It was Hope right?” She probably figured out I was linking with someone.
“ They moved her to another building..she sounded scared before the link broke..” I turn around and walk back into the kitchen. As I poor my self another cup of coffee I look out the window and see two cars driving up in front of the house, I was hoping it would be Reece but no such luck..I go out into the hall to meet my guests when the door is slammed open.
“ Where is she? Where is my daughter?” Tinas mother Samantha..that awful woman is storming in shouting. On her tail is her mate and Alpha David. Beacon surfaced immediately as a response to the intrusion on his territory, not only by this hideous woman but by another alpha as well.
“Quiet woman! Know your place!” He growled, making her stop in her step, the men follow almost bumped in to her.
“ David..what the fuck are you doing here? What is the meaning of this?” I stared at him and I could tell he was a bit nervous.
“ Callum..I’m sorry we’re coming unannounced..we heard there was some kind of misunderstanding and that you had Tina in one of your..cells?” David tries to smooth over Samantha’s rude ways.
“ There is no misunderstanding. Tina is where she is supposed to be, in the cells of our death row prisoners” I look at Samantha with a smug smile on my face..I couldn’t help my self.
“ My daughter in a death row cell? How dare you???” She screamed at me.
“ I suggest you keep your woman on a leash..I have no problem with joining her with her daughter..” I turn to Tínas father, the beta of The Low Falls Pack, and he looked pale. I always wondered why David chose such a weak beta. Was it because he didn’t want his Alpha position threatened? Were they best friends at school? Between him and his mate it was clear who had the balls in the household..Samantha was cocky, fierce and if she wanted something for herself or the once she cared about, she spared no means to obtain it..but not this time..I was immune to her ways.
“ Easy now..everybody just calm down..I’m sure we can come to some kind of understanding” David tried to calm us down with a smile.
“ There is only one understanding.. Tina..your daughter, brought hunters over my borders and led them to my mate, Hope..and to her wolf Luna..Your Luna!!!..She did this in hope to get rid of my mate and become the luna of this pack” I looked them all in the eyes as I spoke.
“ Lies! Samantha squeaked but as David gave her a hard look she went silent.
“ I have it all..beside from Hope I also talked to Rina.” I know they cant argue with Tinas wolf.
“ There must be something we can do?..We have been friends for so long..I’m sure you can look pass this..wrongdoings from Tina..” David really tried.
“ I want you all to listen carefully..I won’t repeat my self once again.. Tina brought the hunters over my boarders. She led them to Hope, My mate, the Luna of my pack, The true Luna..your Luna..she did this knowing they would take her..hoping to take her place in my pack.” I looked them all hard in the eyes, making sure they hear me.
“ This crime is so severe..I will seek the death penalty.” My words hangs heavy in the air. The trio look at each other worriedly, they are probably talking via link..but it doesn’t bother me, there is nothing they can do to make me release Tina at the moment.
“ Callum..Old friend..Let us take her home, she will be punished according to our laws, you have my word.” David tried.
“ It wasn’t your laws she broke..It was mine..She put this pack in danger, she gave up our location to human hunters..No, you will leave here without her. If and when the day comes for her death, you may come back to say your goodbyes. But for now..if you’re not here to help find your Luna..get the fuck out off my pack.” They all looked chocked..they probably didn’t count on this kind of reception. I could see David was fighting with himself..but he knows better then to challenge me. He gives me a silent nod and signs to the other two to leave.
As the door closes behind them I let a breath out..I feel Beacon calm down a bit as well..these fuckers..David had always been an week and arrogant Alpha..but to come here..to me and think I will meet him half way..I almost hope he will try to do something that will end in a conflict between our packs..I shake my head and am about to return to the kitchen when the door opens again. I once again hope it was Reece and once again I was wrong.
“ James?..” I look at the rogue standing in the door with a bag in his hand.
“ Alpha Callum.” He slightly bowed his head.
“ What are you doing here? Dont get me wrong, you are always welcome here.”
“ I come to offer my help..Hope is a good friend..Maya called me last night.”
“ Oh..yeah, right..come in.” We walked in to the dining room and a few seconds later Maya joined us.
“ Jesse! You came!”. She give him a hug and we all sit down around one of the breakfast tables..Cecilia is the next one to join and after her Cathy comes in, stopping abrupt in the doorway. I look at her and then at Jesse..he has his back at her but I can se on his face and his tense body he knew the second she entered the room. Cathy starts moving again and without a word she takes the chair beside me. Before the mood in the room can get too awkward, Kevin comes in, still sweaty from training but at least dressed.
“James! I didn’t know you were coming?” The big smile on his face shows its a welcomed surprise.
“ It was a quick decision, I thought I could surprise you” James stands up and give his little brother a hug.
“ I’m so glad..You have to come and meet Emma..my mate, can you belive it? I found my mate!” I can se James is glad but I also se the pain in his face as the word mate hits him..I really have to help him and Cathy to sort this out.
“ Now this is something I never thought I would se again..” The sound of Joes voice make the brothers turn against the door
