I felt Lily tense in my arms. I immediately come awake, listening to the sounds coming from the baby
monitor. As Lily moves to get out of bed, I’m right behind her. Someone is in the nursery that shouldn’t
be.
I toss her a shirt as I put on a pair of shorts, and we quietly make our way to the door to our room. I
mind link Anders but he’s asleep. I shout in the mind link, trying to wake him up before we sneak out of
our room, quietly moving to Liam’s room.
“You grab the baby. I’ll get the person that is trying to take him.” I say to Lily in the mind link.
She nods and we burst into the room. There is a figure in dark clothing, reaching into the crib. He
snatches Liam up into his arms turning to face us.
“Stand down, Guardians, or I kill the Alpha heir. This isn’t your fight.”
“On the contrary, any fight against Shadow Falls is our fight. You’ve just waged war with not one, but
two packs.” I say.
He chuckles and as my eyes adjust to the nightlight in the room, I can see that this is Alpha Benjamin’s
Beta.
“Does your Alpha know what you are doing?”
“Wow, you really are stupid. All brawn and no brain. Who do you think set this up?” He looks between
me and Lily again. “What I want to know is how you are still standing. We knew she would be.” He nods
at Lily. “But how are you?”
“What are your talking about?” Lily asks him.
“We poisoned everyone with wolfsbane. It was in the food. The entire pack is incapacitated and now
Alpha Benjamin will make his move. We will take over this pack and since we’ve already weakened
your Alpha and Luna as well all we need to do is eliminate the two of you and he’ll take over your pack
too.”
“You’ll find we’re not so easy to kill.” I say to him.
I see the flash of a knife in his hand and Lily is moving. I’m a half second behind her. She grabs his
arm, pulling it away from Liam. I take his arm from her as he throws the baby. Lily catches Liam mid–air
as he
begins to scream.
The Beta’s arm comes up to hit me, but Donovan’s claws have already come out and I slice them
through his throat, holding his arm as he drops to the floor, drowning in his own blood.
I turn to Lily. “You need to quiet him down. If the others know he’s awake, they’ll come looking for him.
If we’re all this pack has standing between them and death, we need to be stealthy.” I tell her. She
looks around, grabbing a bottle from the mini fridge in the room. She pops it in a microwave, heating it
quickly. She checks the temperature and pops it into Liam’s mouth, effectively quieting his cries.

“You stay here. I’m going to check on Anders and Calista.” She nods, walking and gently bouncing
Liam as she feeds him.
I move quickly to their rooms, hearing the sounds of movement on the floors below us in the
packhouse. Once I check to make sure they are alive, I pick them up and carry them to our room.
As I pass the nursery, I poke my head in and see Lily changing Liam. “They’re alive, I’m going to check
Leander and Estella now.”
I find Liam’s parents unconscious, but both are still alive. I quickly pick them up and move them to our
room with Anders and Calista. I put them on the bed and go to get Lily. She follows me into our room
and puts a now sleeping Liam in between his parents on the bed.
