Lyla moved ahead of the men, knowing the forest better than they did and could find a safer path through the woods to avoid the patrols her brother sent out to find them. Duncan kept a keen eye on her and the surrounding area as did Ryan, his partner and best friend for most of his years working as a Council Enforcer. As he watched her carefully move through the underbrush, scenting the breeze, listening for any indication of other wolves, he was impressed with her skill and abilities. Most females were protected and kept safe well within den territory, especially pureblood females, since pureblood had become rare. Lyla was a prize in many ways, not just for her blood but for her skills and talents, and he was the lucky bastard to be mated to her.

A fact his partner seemed to also appreciate. “She’s a smart wolf. Knows these woods and appears to have skill with defense. She would have inflicted some damage if we hadn’t gotten there in time.”

Duncan growled low in his throat, causing Lyla to turn and cast him a quizzical look before moving on. “It should have never happened. How did we miss her brother setting this up? I’ve been in his camp for a couple of weeks, moving my way into a position of trust and you were an alpha willing to pay for a mate. What the hell went wrong?”

“He had debts to those alphas, owed them. He couldn’t afford for someone else to win me,” Lyla’s voice carried back to them.

They exchanged glances and moved closer. “Are you saying all of those packs are involved in the trafficking of women too?”

She scowled. “No, maybe only the Blue Ridge Pack. He’s slime. The others lent my brother money so he owes them. I don’t think they’re involved in his business, but who knows. Did you find anything?”

Duncan shook his head. “I wasn’t able to get close enough to find out if anyone else was involved. I only know about your brother and members of your pack, some of whom were willing, others were not.”

Her lips twisted in a grimace. “Yeah, Scott rules by fear and intimidation. There’s no leaving the pack except by death, an option a few members chose. He won’t allow anyone to go Rogue for fear they’ll speak out against him. We’ll have to take the next part quietly. We’re close to patrols.”

They nodded and made their way to a back road where they had stashed a vehicle. Once they were on their way, Ryan driving, Duncan in the passenger seat and Lyla in the back, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

“Let’s get something to eat and regroup. But out of the territory.”

Lyla directed them to a diner an hour south, away from the territory. She headed inside to get a table while Duncan and Ryan made a call to the Council. They followed shortly after, not happy with their orders.

Lyla looked up expectantly. “So, are you going to rescue the girls?”

Duncan exchanged a glance with Ryan.
