Chapter 43
Tobias’ POV
I really didn’t do much when I was here. My room was quite bare and I kept to myself; you would have called me a loner. **“We were too busy making sure Olivia and Jessica were safe”** Tyler assures me. **“I know, I have too much time here to think.”**
Thinking is all I have been doing; like the first time I was hit by Sebastian and Aubrey. I knew about Tim. I must have; because I was four and I asked my parents where my brother was. They insisted I never had a brother and I should not ask them again. I was persistent and demanded to know where he was.
I got the first taste of their abuse; mum slapped me across the face; that was her forte. And Dad, he loved to hit the back of my head. I never did ask about my brother again; it didn’t stop though. I would say or do something they didn’t like and I would cop it. It went from a slap across the back of my head to a punch in the stomach. A punch in the stomach to one in the stomach and one in the face. No remorse and would always use the excuse of discipline or teaching me to be stronger.
And all the times; I stood in between Olivia, Jessica and them. They would go to hit either of them and I would walk in front of them and they would hit me instead. Then; they would hit me again for getting in the way.
My abusers are going to pay; pay with their lives. Timothy made a promise to Benji and I am going to keep that promise. Their actions not only affected me, it affected his wolf, my mother, my brother and three of the closet friends I have; Alex, Jessica and Olivia.
Olivia, my rock; my life and the other half of my soul. **“You need to get a grip”** Tyler scolded. **“I know; Shaun will be coming for me soon.”**
I lie down on my bed and wait for Shaun to come and get me. **“It shouldn’t be too much longer, surely”** I tell Tyler; hearing the door being unlocked.
“Ready?” Shaun asks; I get off the bed and go to the door “Ready”
Shaun grabs my arm and pins it as gently as he can behind my back. We head down the stairs and out the front of the pack house; making our way to the edge of the western border towards the old Desert Moon territory. “They won’t know what hit them” Sebastian chuckles **“You won’t know what hit you”** I say to Tyler.
We move closer; we can see guards patrolling the borders. I look closer, **“Shit that’s Dad”** I tell Tyler, **“You need to warn him?”** *“Dad, we are heading up to the border now; you need to fetch the others.”* I mind link *“Toby; Stay strong, my son.”* He runs toward the pack house with the other guards.
Alex POV
*“There at the border”* Joseph booms through the mind link; here we go. Everyone races out of the pack house; Joseph and the five other Master trainers head into the trees from the border.
We head towards the border; Nathanial on my right and Adrian to my left. Jessica and Olivia behind me flanked by Alister, Glenn, Jeremy, Christian, Rebecca and Kimberly. Timothy remains behind our enforcers with David and Elijah dragging Mark.
Gerard is standing to our left with his second on his right and third to his left; to his left is Samantha with her mate Raoul; her second and third. On my right; Seth, with his Second and Third and Brian with his Second and Third.
The Master Trainers have our warriors and the other enforcers hiding in the nearby trees and around the pack house.
Sebastian comes closer with Shaun by he’s side dragging Tobias and Aubrey following three paces behind *“How’s it going?”* I ask Tobias; *“peachy; are you all ready?”* *“Can't wait.”*
“I’ve come to do an exchange” Sebastian calls out; “your prisoner, for ours.” “You call your son a prisoner” I spit; “My son wouldn’t betray me like he has, I should kill him here; for treason.” “What makes you think you have Jonathon?” Olivia yells, moving forward; Glenn and Alister move with her. “Your delusional half breed, I know my own son” spits Aubrey.
“Oh, Jonathon” I call and Timothy moves his way forward from behind the enforcers; “Yes Alpha” he chimes. “What the Fuck” Sebastian screams and Aubrey gasps looking from Timothy to Tobias then back a Timothy again.
“Haven’t I told you before; assuming makes an ass out of u and me. More of an ass out of you but; hey! Beggars can’t be choosers.”
Sebastian looks at Shaun; who smirks and let’s go of Toby, both shift to Tyler and Oscar and starts snapping at Sebastian. Three warriors shift and get in front of Aubrey and Sebastian; they fall back yelling “ATTACK.”
Tyler bites one of the warriors around the neck, throwing him in the air. Oscar claws another pushing him to the ground and ripping his throat; they both pounce on the third warrior, Tyler pulling his neck and Oliver pulling his hind legs ripping him into two.
*“Glenn, Alister get Olivia and Jessica up to the pack house. I don’t care if you have to carry them kicking and screaming”* Toby screams.
More warriors shifted and head toward us; we all shift and get ready for an onslaught.
“We’ve got this;” Gerry yells, linking hands with his second and third. The earth starts to shake in front of us; “send them north” he yells. The rest of Emerald Moon warrior’s shift and try to run east and west, the white coven’s second and third, lifted their free hand and the ground shook harder pushing them back to centre.
*“Sebastian and Aubrey are heading towards the Ruby Pack; right where we want him”* I link everyone *“Sebastian is mine, I want to Lycan his ass. I promised Aubrey to Remi; the rest is yours for the taking”* Toby insists.
A brown wolf runs toward Gerard, Samantha pounces on his back; locking her jaw around his airpipe. Another heads towards Seth; his second snaps his jaw on the warriors back, ripping his stomach with his claws.
*“We’re right behind you”* Joe says slowly moving north towards the Forrest Clan borders. *“Are the ladies in the pack house?”* I ask *“Yes, Olivia tried to electrocute me again; she taught me well. I wrapped her arms in a bear hug and took her there myself”* Alister chuckled. *“Eden and Yvette convinced them to stay put”* Glenn added.
Timothy grabs a wolf running towards Toby and flings him into a tree; I grab another by the tail and throw him into the ground, Rebecca pounces on him, biting the back of his neck.
We get them to the border *“Move in, Block their escape.”* I yell. I hear Master Joe boom “Now” and our warriors, enforcers and fighters come running out and around the group. From the Forrest Clan, more warriors, enforcers and fighters come running around the three packs in front of us.
They are blocked. All the leaders shift back standing at points as if we were standing on a clock; on the ground. Tobias and myself stand together in the number 12 position; top and centre.
