A groan from the farthest cell makes all girls snap their heads over. Tara begins to whimper as she tosses and turns as she comes to. Kacia slowly crawling over without touching the cell. Tara finally blinks open before trying to gain her own vision. 

"Angel?" She turns her head at the familiar voice and finally realizes where they are. Her eyes going wide as her head frantically looks around. "Tara princess, focus on me."

Her head jerks to her sister. Kacia sitting their with sluggish eyes. She attempts to move but feels her body mostly paralyzed. Her heart beginning to accelerate at an alarming rate before she opens her mouth to scream. Kacia's hand snaps through bar landing on her sister's mouth. The cell bars burning her arm. She grits her teeth but continues holding Tara's mouth close. The large brown eyes looking to her wide eyed with tears glistening. Tara's eyes turn to where she can see smoke rising from her sister's arm. She jerks her eyes back to Kacia who is looking at her intently. She nods her head in understanding and Kacia retracts her arm. The pain searing through her arm pulsating in her veins. 

Kacia holds her injured arm while turning back to her other two sisters. The effects of the cell doing very little to Belle now however effecting Nessa tremendously. The raven beauty collapsed again the dirt floor. A whimper makes her turn her gaze back to her baby sister. She continues wiggling her fingers trying to get feeling in her arms and legs. 

The click of a lock makes Belle and Kacia look to the door. A young man walks in and his eyes automatically lock to Kacia who inhales deeply. Her whole body going stiff as stone. He has dark hair that is slightly below his ear. It's his blue eyes that are flickering yellow that keeps Kacia stuck in her place. Their eyes remain locked and Belle just looks on. 

"Name"

His voice. The voice make Kacia shiver involuntarily before hissing as her arm burns yet again. She brings it closer to her chest. The unknown man is quick to unlock the cell. Belle doesn't say anything as he comes in kneeling down in front of Kacia. Her eyes watching him intently. He gently takes her hand pulling her arm so he may inspect it. Kacia inhales the scent lingering off of him and his eyes snap to her. Their faces only mere centimeters apart. 

"Help them"

Kacia's words halting the man. He shakes his head stepping back before standing up. He looks to the cells to his right and left. He sees the blonde next door watching him carefully with narrowed eyes. He sniffs noticing her scent. He continues remaining next to the she-wolf he was drawn to but takes a deep inhale again. His eyes snapping realizing what it is. 

"You're the mate of Alpha Colton Tate"

Belle slowly nods moving her hair to show her claim. The man snarls before turning back to Kacia. His chest heaving up and down heavily. Both Belle and Kacia don't know what is going on. They are not sure if he is upset with the her connection or not. Tara groans as she finally begins to move her arms. Belle makes eye contact with her before looking back to the man. His eyes still searching Kacia's. Her eyes equally intrigued by him. 

He goes to open his eyes when the sound of a door opening snaps his attention back. He quickly gets up standing in front of Kacia. Alpha Talson makes his way into the room. A sneer covering his lips as his eyes flicker yellow looking at the man. 

"What the hell are you doing in here bastard?!"

Kacia growls unintentionally. Alpha catches it before a smirk appears before he begins chuckling. He holds his stomach as his eyes flicker between the pair. The man still standing strong in front of the brown haired beauty. After a moment, the Alpha stops with a loud sigh. 

"Oh that is rich... you are mated to a rogue?! I knew you would never be good for ANYTHING!" 

His voice quickly rising in volume. Once again the dark haired young man doesn't comment. Kacia doesn't move but can feel her wolf urging her to stand up for her mate. Belle slowly stands up making the Alpha turn to her. 

"You're wrong." 

The Alpha grins as he walks to her cell. His eyes momentarily flickering to the vampire that seems to be passed out on the floor. The clicking of heals making all turn to see the red hair of a familiar she wolf make her way down. Her eyes going to the young man. 

"Leo, what are you-"

"DO NOT SPEAK TO THAT BASTARD!"

Raven whimpers bowing her head and showing her neck in submission to her father. She walks over to stand beside him as he looks into the cell holding the witch that stole her mate. She grins sinisterly seeing her locked up. 

"Ah poor thing!" She says with a pout. Belle can feel her anger rising rapidly. "Don't worry, I will take good care of Colton."

Belle doesn't move but can feel her inner powers growing in strength even with the charm barrier. This bitch was trying to claim what is hers. She slowly reached up moving her hair to the side. Her claim showing proudly. The red hair quickly flying as she lunges forward growling seeing that Colton had claimed her. He wanted that filthy witch over her?! 

"You will not lay a finger on my mate"

Raven just smiled sweetly leaning towards the cell door. "Who's going to stop me?"

"ALPHA!" 

A warrior comes running to the bottom of the stairs. He gives a bow in acknowledgement before continuing. "Sir, we have a problem."

"What is it?" Alpha says getting impatient. The young man gulps audibly as a vicious roar rains through the air. The severity of the sound shakes the walls of the room and trembles the ground beneath their feet. The young man runs back upstairs quickly followed by the Alpha. His eyes snapping to the young man who is still in front of Kacia. Pointing a finger at him, "Don't forget who you belong to bastard." 

The young man raises his chin while Kacia growls yet again. The lack of respect for her mate making her want to slit his throat. The Alpha pays no mind to it as he makes his way out. The red hair beauty unlocking the cage stepping into Belle. Her eyes holding a dark expression. 

"He may have marked you... but he will be mine."

Raven lunges at the blonde who is quick to deflect the attack before putting the red haired she wolf in a head lock. Raven thrashes trying to get her to release. Once she realizes she can't she begins trying to claw at Belle's arm. 

Jezabelle grits her teeth feeling the talons digging in her skin. She brings her face close to the red hair bitch's ear. "You will never have him."

With a final snap, Belle jerks her head to the left instantly cracking her second vertebrae. Her body going limp as Belle releases the trash to the floor. She hisses as the pain from the claw marks scorns her arm. She stands back up turning to see the young man look to the body. 

"I do not know how you are correlated to the people." His eyes snap up to meet hers. "Are you here to help or not?"

Belle was through trying to figure out what he thought. She wanted a straight answer. Time was running out. She knew what that sound was. She hadn't heard it since she was a young child but in minutes, this place will be scorched. 

The man, Leo, glances down at his mate before giving a single head nod back to the blonde witch. He turns kneeling down again before scooping up Kacia within his arms. A low growl emitting from his throat while Kacia nuzzles her nose to his neck. His grip tightening instinctively around her. She hums in reply before turning to Tara's cell. The man takes her to it as she uses the key to open it. Tara slowly stands but on shaky legs. Kacia slowly pulls out of her mate's grasp making him growl for a different reason. She doesn't bother and walks over slinging an arm over her shoulder to help sturdy her before looking back at Leo. He goes to the small girl's other side helping her up. 

Belle steps out of the open cell before grabbing the keys and opening Nessa's cell. She goes in to gather her tapping her cheek to wake her up. Her blood red eyes snapping open looking directly at Belle. Belle holds out her hand for her sister. The red eyes flickering to it before looking back to her. Her hand coming out to clasp it before Belle yanks her up. 

"We need to go now." Belle says loudly.

"Was that-" Tara asks groggily. 

"Yes" 

With her confirmation, Kacia curses before moving faster with Tara. Nessa leaves the cell and instantly begins to feel better. She goes over to her little angel. She quickly picks her up before dashing up the stairs. Kacia looks to her mate who looks to her with dark eyes. She turns to Belle. Her sister smirking slightly. 

RRROOOAAAAAARRRRR

All thoughts vanish as they once again here the vicious sound however much closer. Belle races forward while Leo goes to try lifting Kacia again however she shakes her head negatively. Holding her arm to her chest, she follows her sister up the stairs. Leo growls irritably but follows none the less. 

They make it to the first level of the pack house. The place completely deserted. Without a word, Leo gathers Kacia in his arms and begins jogging towards the exit. Belle, Nessa and Tara following close behind. Leo throws the doors open and instantly the sounds of screams are heard. People are running everywhere. None of which seem to notice the group. A loud growl captures their attention making them snap their heads to the right. Charging towards them is two wolves. Belle smiles in relief as she runs off the steps to meet the wolf. 

Leo watches with his mate still securely in his arms as the large wolf stops abruptly in front of the blonde witch. His head laying on her back as she hugged him. He understands this must be the Alpha. 

"Jake!"

The other wolf comes forward quickly to the steps. Nessa slowly steps down as the large wolf licks at the doe eyed beauty in the vampire's arm. The young woman giggling gently. He even licks the vampiress however she narrows her eyes at him. 

"Kacia"

Leo looks down to the beauty in his arms. She is already looking into his blue eyes. He replays her name in his mind before repeating it. It suited her, he thought. 

"Leo"

She lays her head on his shoulder but the moment is interrupted as a dart flies out hitting his neck. Kacia quickly goes wide eyed before he tries to contain conscious. He slowly puts her down while her eyes search the area for the shooter. He collapses on the ground. She kneels protectively in front of him. A group of men step out of the tree line with a line of these guns. She is quick to turn. Her sisters still with the wolves. 

"TARA NOW!"

All heads turn to her voice and find what she is talking about. Tara closes her eyes and in an instance, her and Nessa have disappeared. Jake frantically looking around. His paws digging into the soil as he searches for her. A white light appears beside Kacia. Kacia reaches her hand out while the other holds Leo securely. Once again the white light disappears. This time leaving only Jezabelle, Colton, and Jake. 

The group of men focusing on them. Jake stands in front of his Alpha as they shoot. His side taking three darts. A whimper leaving his lips as his large form collapses. The white light appears again but this time to get Jake. He disappears and Belle feels her body humming with energy. 

Raising her palm she focuses on her anger as a ball of flames dance in her palm. The group of men backing up slightly with now looks of terror. Belle doesn't hesitate to throw her arm back before charging it forward. The ball making direct contact with one of the men. His body going up in flames as he screams in agony. 

The other men are quick to bring their guns up focusing on the witch. She raises her arms quickly making the earth rise to protect her from any hits. The light once again appearing beside her. She grabs Colton's fur while taking the hand. Her body quickly reappearing somewhere else. 

Colton lands hard. His body being thrown to the ground as he lands from whatever the hell just happened. He stands up on paws shaking his fur out. Glancing around, he finds his Beta still collapsed on the ground. His eyes looking all around. His wolf staying against Belle's back. His protective instinct in high gear. 

A slow yet loud clap making them all turn to the sound. Slowly walking into the clearing is the bastard that caused all of this. His sinister smile and jagged movements making all go on high alert. 

"Let's have some fun shall we?"
