Chapter Eight

Jack stood on the rotting porch of Grace’s cabin. Dr. Bill Jensen was looking over her injuries. Jack had stepped outside to give them some privacy. The front door was open so it was more like to give them the illusion of privacy. By the sigh Dr. Jensen had given him when he’d walked outside Jack knew he wasn’t fooling anyone.

He couldn’t help himself. He was standing less than thirty feet away from Grace. She was in his line of sight, surrounded by five enforcers, and Jack still wanted to snarl and snap at everyone. His wolf was losing its mind. Their mate had nearly died. It had come down to seconds. Too close.

After running into Grace in town Jack had decided to head over to help her paint. He wanted to earn some brownie points and maybe feel out the asshole South Creek wolf sleeping on her lawn.

He’d smelled blood before he got out of his truck. Jack wasn’t sure if his human senses registered whose blood it was. One instant he was human and the next he was a wolf running towards the woods. The race through the forest was so disjointed, so frantic that it wasn’t until he saw the rogues on Grace that Jack realized what was going on.

His wolf overrode Jack’s free will. Their mate was in danger. They defended, fought, and killed for their mate. Seeing a wolf bite down on Grace’s shoulder, Jack wholeheartedly agreed. He wanted to tear those fucking animals limb from limb. He would see the rogues torn limb from limb.

Grace winced as Dr. Jensen pressed his fingers into her ribs. Jack was halfway through the door before he could stop himself. He had to close his eyes and remember that Dr. Jensen was helping, not hurting.

The reality of what almost happened today, losing Grace, changed Jack. Grace was his mate. He understood what his wolf had been trying to tell him for months now. They needed Grace and Jack would be damned if he let anything keep him from claiming her.

Ben gestured Jack over to where he, Paul, and the Tate brothers were on the lawn. Checking on Grace one more time to make sure she didn’t need him, Jack joined them. Ben and Paul looked pissed. Ezra and Ezekiel were stone faced. That wasn’t anything new. Jack had seen them set their own bones and not flinch. The rogues could be bearing down on them that very second and the Tate brothers would still be wearing the same expression.

“What do you have?” Jack asked quietly, hoping Grace wouldn’t hear them. Whatever had put that look on Ben’s face wasn’t something he wanted Grace hearing.

“Shit. We found shit.” Paul bit, teeth flashing.

Jack cursed. He had been hoping that Ezra and Ezekiel would be able to catch up with the bastards. They were the Pack’s best trackers but that meant shit when rogues got a head start. Still, they might be able to scope the area where the brothers lost the trail.
