Booki Chapter 42
And before I could ask him what he meant the doors slammed open.
“Quin!” I shouted slamming out of my seat and rushed over to her aide. She had a fading bruise on her cheek and a cut on her collar bone. Her white sundress was littered with sticks, dirt, and dried blood.
“Are you okay? Where’s Marie? Why are you here?” I rushed.
“He found us” she sobbed biting down on her bloody fist.
“Quin who’s blood is that?” My face Paled imagining the worst. Marie.
“Its one of his goons.” She hiccups before glaring right into my eyes.
“He’s here! He attcked this girl who looked like you, and then he saw me and he tried to get me. But I managed to stay hidden. But Ari that girl is still out there!” She cried out crushing my hand in hers.
“Mariana!” I could feel my heart drop as I thought of her wide smile and innocent face. “This is my fault!” I growled pulling my hands out of Quinns and ran out the door.
“Ariana! Wait!” I could hear Quinns bare feet thumping against the floors as she ran to me.
“Maggie!” I shouted as the lady who welcomed me with open arms when I came here.
.“Yes sweetie?” She frowned rubbing my bare arms as she noticed me.
“Please mind link Caleb and tell him to pick up the twins. I’ll meet him here.” As soon as she nodded Quinn and I rushed out of the door, only to collide with Adrian.
“Damn Luna. What’s got you in a mood.” He joked making me let out a warning growl.
My little sister was out, hurt in the woods because of me and he wouldn’t get out of our way.
“Move.” I hissed making him flinch back. I could feel a pinch of guilt looking into his hurt blue eyes.
“I can’t. Alpha orders to go with you.” He shrugged before turning to Quinn. His eyes widened and he immediately took off his leather jacket. “Fuck are you okay?” He questioned a small blush tinting his cheeks.
Frowning I turned to Quinn only to see that her dress had a tear by the breast that revelled some of her porcelain skin.
If it wasn’t for Mariana out there I would have whined about then not being mates. I was really freaking hoping they
were.
“Fine. You could be some help.” I interuppted making Adrian grin at me as we ran through the woods, with Quinn leading.
Throughout the way I kept my eyes peeled for the manic deviously handsome Heath
Even if I despised him for making our lives hell- I had to admit it. He was good looking.
“Ariana you need to go back home. Theirs a wounded werewolf out there and its not safe.” I could tell he went from playful Adrian to Mr. Third in command.
“That’s my sister.” I growled pushing away from his arms. Only to be pulled back.
“That’s not Mariah!” He growled making me growl back.
“I know! Its Mariana!” Throwing my leg back I hit his shin making him loosen his hold. And with that I ran out his arms with a confused Quinn and Adrian running after me.
Once I saw the familiar brown hair sticking out from the meadow I could feel my heart jump into my throat.
“Mariana!” I cried out throwing my body to her side and pulling her head onto my lap.
“Oh baby. Why’d you come by yourself. You stupid stupid girl.” I cried hugging her to my chest.
“You… Suffocating me.” Pushing away from her I zeroed in on her lips that were pulled into a grimace.
“Adrian! Help me get her back to the house!” I ordered.
Nodding he came to our side only to freeze as their eyes connected.
“Mate.” Mariana smiled before her eyes rolled back.

As if someone took over Adrian’s body. He whisked her into his arms before taking off at an unnatural speed back home.
“Fuck, let a girl breathe.” Quinn wheezed as we rushed after him.
“Sorry “I breathed out as we broke through the trees just as the kids ran out of the house and threw their arms around my waist.
“Mommy! We thought that was you!” Joey whimpered his tiny fingers pinching into my skin.
“We were so scared!” Zoey added softly crying into my shirt.
“I’m okay. Hey guys look at me. I’m okay. Everything’s okay.” I smiled kissing their foreheads as we continued into the house.
“Mommy who was that?” Joey asked as I sat them in the couch.
“That was my,” I frowned before shrugging. “My sister. Your other auntie.” I smiled before turning to Quinn.
“I got them. You go.” Nodding I thanked her before kissing the kids and running upstairs.
“I’m not leaving!” Making my feet run faster I threw open the door to see Adrian holding Mariana tightly to his chest as Jackson stood by him with a frantic expression.
“Get away from her and let Jackson help her. Or God help me, I will cut off your jewels.” I growled making Adrian tense.
Slowly his arms unwrapped from her body as he laid her on the bed.
Jackson got to work as soon as her head hit the pillow. Wrapping up her head that had a slit like a wolfs claw.
Snapping her right leg back into place. Next was her left shoulder, then her fingers and her ribs…
“Ariana?” Hearing his voice made my eyes tear. And before he could ask anything I threw myself into his arms and sobbed.
“Caleb this is my fault! She just wanted to help! But he got to her first! This is my fault! He wants me dammit!” I sobbed twisting his shirt in my fists as my anger engulfed my body.
“Who? Ariana who?” Caleb growled making me tense in his arms.
“Ariana.” He warned softly pushing me off his chest.
“Who!” His wolfs voice shouted out making me whimper.
“Heath Embers”
