Chapter 18

Jordan, Zackary and Levi and sat in a room away from everyone with their newest pack member and lycan Scott Toussaint.

"We know our command won't work on you, so please sit down? We aren't angry at you!" Jordan told him in a gentle tone. He was actually glad somebody beat the crap out of Ryan, as 1/3 of the Alpha's in his pack he couldn't go around beating up pack members.

"But if you ask my dad," Jordan said then pointed at his brothers "and our dad" Levi and Zackary said. "Or our mother..." They all said together. "We gave you training duty for 3 weeks." Zackary said with a smug grin on his face.

Scott plopped down in a chair once they were done. "I just...I hate him so much!" He gritted with his fists balled up on his lap.

"We get it, trust me. If Caleb or any of us had the chance we would have already beat the shit out of him." Levi said as he thought back on the day he found out his sister's mate was causing her harm.

That was a few months before he got the video, he was the one who went to her home to check on her because nobody had seen her in a week.

He had to break the door down to get in, the state he found her in when he got the basement door open was enough to drive a priest to kill somebody, and the bruises she had on her wrists and neck were uncalled for.

When he got her to Bailey's she had passed out from hunger because he wasn't feeding her while she was down there.

He called ALL his cousins and his brothers to the house as Bailey cleaned her up. Caleb and Jon wanted to go and set him straight but as a future Alpha Caleb couldn't and Jon being the packs Gamma he couldn't do anything either.

"You know I can't hear her thoughts!" Levi ,zoned back in to his surroundings when Scott spoke. "At first when I met her, and started guarding her I could. Now, I can't."

"Why do think that is?" Jordan was the one to ask what we were all thinking.

He shrugged his shoulders. "I have a power that brings out powers in people if they were meant to have them. Perhaps your sister has an immunity to magic, that is just now surfacing."

The brothers all looked at each other with shocked expressions. "Mom always said she was a witch." Zackary whispered in a hushed tone like nobody in the room didn't have enhanced hearing and couldn't hear him.

A knock was heard on the door before Bailey popped her head in then stepped in completely. She had tears in her eyes and she knew she had to tell her brothers before they heard it from somebody else.

"What happened?" Scott asked, she was keeping her thoughts blank again and he couldn't hear them to get the answers before she spoke.

She took a deep breath and looked at the 4 of them. "Brooke lost too much blood...she lost the baby." She let a sob leave her when she finished.

Scott got up from his seat a growl leaving him. "I'm going to kill him." The boys all got up and stood in front of him blocking his path. "As your Alpha, we can't let you do that, Scott." Levi said.

"Let him go!" Bailey said waving her hand pushing her brothers out of his way. "You guys haven't seen how bad it has been for her. This right here will be the icing on the cake."

The tears in her eyes had begun to fall. "So let him, kill him." Bailey had so much venom in her voice with those last 2 words it made her brothers shiver and move away from her.

Scott walked out of the room with one thought in his mind. To kill Ryan Dale. He knew Bailey, Jordan, Zackary and Levi were behind him. He got the link from Bailey on what floor Ryan was in so that was all he needed to know.

He took the stairs instead of the elevator to the 3rd floor. He took them 2 at a time and with ease. Ezekiel was right below the surface, Scott knew if he seen Ryan he would take over again and not give him control back until he was dead at his feet with his heart in his hand.

When he got to the floor he swung the door open and Bailey linked him again telling him what room. He made a right and made quick srides to the appropriate room, as he approached it he heard the voice of Clara, Brooklyn's mother.

"Have you signed the divorce papers?" She asked him. "No ma'am, I told Brooke I did but I lied to her about it." I knew I smelled a liar when he came to the house that morning.

"I want them signed, and I want you to leave my daughter alone. You have no ties to her. Not anymore." She growled at him, I heard her heels clicking against the floor.

I didn't dare move as the door opened, and she wasn't shocked to see me, but was shocked to see her children behind me.

"We need to talk, all of us." She motioned us to the room across the hall.

"I came to show Ryan my utmost apologies for what I did." I told her with a sly smirk on my face. She laughed quietly and walked over to the door. "I know why you all are here, now in the room please! I won't ask again!"

I groaned, I really wanted to beat the shit out of Ryan again. I went into the room after the triplets and Bailey and sat down in a chair.

"Alright mom, what is it?" Bailey asked her, just as frustrated as I was by me not getting to beat up Ryan.

Clara sighed deeply. "Unfortunately, Brooklyn did loose the baby. But perhaps that's a good thing-"

"Mom how could you say that?" Bailey yelled as she got up from the bed. I had to agree with her, what kind of parent would think that their child loosing their baby was a good thing.

"I didn't mean it in a bad way, Bailey. I meant it as she could finally get Ryan out of her life for good." Her mother clarified.

I cleared my throat. "That's not so easy ma'am. I know for a fact that Brooke still loves him....even after everything he has put her through." I looked down at the floor. "That kind of love isn't so easy to get over."

The room was quiet, the only thing that could be heard was the sounds of our breathing and our hearts beating.

"He's right. Brooke has told me on several occasions that she didn't want to reject him because she was hoping he still loved her like she did him." I watched Bailey close her eyes and shake her head.

"What happens now?" Zackary asked quietly, I could hear the sadness in his voice.

"Just... I don't know. Just be there for her. Make sure she don't do anything rash. Me and your fathers will do the same." She then turned to me. "Was she able to get her money?"

I shook my head with a sigh. "We were on our way to do it yesterday when Felicity saw us, then the cramping started and you know the rest."

She pinched the bridge of her nose. "I am a co-owner with the bank she is transfering to I'll see what I can do." And then she walked out.

I looked back at other 4. "What room is she in?"

Bailey gave me a smile but I could tell she forced it. "Right down the hall, 322 I believe."

I got up and left the room, I had to force myself to walk away from the room Ryan was in or I would have finished what I started before the Alpha's showed up.

When I reached her room, the door was slightly ajar. I could hear somebody talking.

My brows furrowed he wasn't supposed to around her, I burst into the room my lycan taking full control over me the second we seen him standing over her.

No he wasn't standing over her, he was smothering her with the pillow she was supposed to laying on. "Get away from her, Ryan!"
