Justin nced at Bailey with a look that screamed she was an idiot. Then he lifted a hand and pointed to the right. “She went that way.”
Before his words had fully faded, Bailey shifted into her wolf form and charged in the direction he’d indicated.
Justin shook his head, calling to the others to get up. He intended to leave this ce behind.
But suddenly, the house rm red to life. It was a level–one warning, the shrill siren echoing so loudly it even shook the hidden chamber.
“What’s going on?” Justin froze.
“It must be the rm system–fires that severe are the only thing that set it off…” someone exined.
Before he could finish, water sprayed down from the ceiling. The sprinkler system had been triggered.
Bailey heard the rm too, and panic gripped her. Her perfect n had beenpletely disrupted by this sudden ze!
And why had Aubrey been able to escape from the beta werewolves? Could she really have awakened a powerful wolf, one even Justin’s group couldn’t defeat?
The thought made Bailey’s stomach sink. If that were true, killing Aubrey in the future would be nearly impossible.
Suddenly, with a loud crash, a nearby wine rack toppled over. Bailey snapped her head in that direction and immediately spotted Aubrey.
Her face was pale, her body swaying as though she might copse at any moment. She looked terribly weak.
Bailey growled low in satisfaction. Yes, this was what a fragile, helpless omega should look like. She knew it–after so many suppressants, Aubrey could never awaken a powerful wolf!
Her escape earlier must have been due to poison or some other cheap trick.
With that thought, Bailey released her beta aura and lunged viciously toward Aubrey.
At thest critical second, Aubrey’s muscles tensed. She summoned every ounce of strength she

The charred boards cracked apart with a loud snap. Shielding her head with her arms, Aubrey leapt down to the second floor.
The mes rushed toward her, scaring hot. Aubrey realized the inferno was far worse than she had expected. Tonight, she might not leave unscathed.
But the very next moment, she fell straight into a pair of strong, steady arms.
“Got you!”
The voice was full of relief, threaded with lingering fear.
Aubrey blinked, dazed. “Alpha Henry?”
She hadn’t expected anyone to catch her in such a moment.
Never in her life had she thought someone woulde to save her. She had fled for her life too many times, always relying only on herself. But this time was different…
“We’re going home.”
Alpha Henry’s voice was low as he held her tightly and carried her away.
In the night, his back was straight, his stride firm.
Nestled against him, Aubrey’s body slowly rxed. After half an hour of fighting at her limits, exhaustion swept over her. Safe in Alpha Henry’s arms, all she wanted was to sleep.
“Mm.” Aubrey murmured, then drifted into slumber.
Behind them, the five–story vi was being swallowed whole by fire. Before it copsed, Cam led men to capture every werewolf who escaped the ze–including Bailey–and threw them into the dungeon under guard.
After Alpha Henry brought Aubrey home, he immediately called Xavier. Only when Xavier assured him she was unharmed did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
It was then he remembered Callen. Ever since the new suppressant had been developed, Callen’s condition had improved. Back at the vi, Callen had told him it had sensed their mate’s aura.
It was that guiding presence that had allowed him to catch Aubrey at the veryst moment.
Now, Henry intended to go to the dungeon. He needed to find out if among the werewolves who had tormented Aubrey there might also be his mate…
