The Guardian Wolf And Her Alpha Mate
The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate Chapter 140

Nova POV

Perched up a tree opposite two buildings where the archers and gun men are stationed, Flo and I stay frozen in our spots waiting for the rogues to appear. As soon as we hear from the scout we see distant movement in the trees as leaves begin to rustle and the sound of many paws hits our ears. "What use are the archers if they can't kill them?!" Flo links me sounding panicked after Jax tells us his new information.

"They can aim for their hearts, many at the white mountain pack are skilled enough to do so, I trained them myself on moving targets" I tell her. "But we still would have to get the hearts out of them" I admit as my brows furrow in concentration. "Why don't I go down and rid them of their hearts?" She suggests as I look at her slowly.

"You could" I agree, "but not until the rogues have passed, if there are any left lying then you can go in. I'm not putting you in more danger than it's worth."

"I'm the Gamma, I'm meant to do that" she retorts defensively.

"And I'm the Luna and your sister, your safely is my concern. Please Flo" I say quietly. "You won't be any use to us if you sacrifice yourself in the process."

Huffing a breath she rolls her eyes before turning to watch the rogues gaining momentum as they speed towards us,

"ever the logical one" she links me making my lips curl up in amusement despite the setting.

"Ever the reactive one" I link her back as she smirks.

"Damn right" she laughs down the link before lifting her hand and pointing silently.

"What's that?" She whispers through the link as we begin to notice a fog spreading from the forest wrapping itself around the rogues.

"My guess is another elemental witch" I groan. Seeing the arrows raining down on the rogue wolves as they pierce their hearts over and over again I smile proudly at the fact they responded to my training so well they didn't even need me to instruct them to aim there after what Jax said.

"Luna we can go down and get their hearts out once the rogues have moved past us" a warrior links me as I watch the fallen stay down for now.

"That was our idea also, Gamma Florence will join you" I inform him as I fill her in. Watching the rogues continue on their path as they're forced between the buildings on the outskirts of our land near the pack house they slow their pace as a result. Suddenly I see fire stream from a building down the road and know Michaela has commenced her part of the plan

Seeing the trails begin to blaze the rogues halt as a few fall in the flames and begin to writhe around as their fur immediately catches fire. Hearing the pained howls of the ones caught by fames a cold smile spreads across my face as I try to control Kia's sudden bloodlust.

"Not yet Ki" I murmur to her as she backs down slightly in my mind.

Suddenly the sky begins to darken and heavy rain clouds begin to gather directly above us as I see a young girl with blazing purple eyes step out of the trees 500m away. "The elemental" I murmur to Flo as I point to where I'm looking.

As the clouds burst above us and torrential rain pours down the flames Michaela had started begin to flicker and die down.

"YOU b***h" I hear someone scream before a massive stream of fire burns down on the ground once again, made more ferocious by Michaela's anger as she refuses to let the rain take the flames from us. Seeing the rogues falter and look for ways around I feel Ki itching to get involved.

"Wait" I warn her again as I watch the other elemental witch step forward with anger making her face flush red.

"I need to get to her" I tell Flo as she quickly nods without taking her eyes off of the last of the rogues running past.

"Why didn't they attempt to get to the archers?" She mutters with a frown

"I don't know, maybe they have specific instructions to attack Jax and I, they think I'm there with him" I say quietly.

"That would make sense, they look almost feral don't they" she says as we watch from a distance, our warriors launch themselves at the incoming rogues.

"But they're not" I add as the final rogues disappear ahead of us. For more free novels, visit FindNovel.net Pulling myself up from where I was crouched I gesture to Flo to do the same, "let's go" I instruct. "Meet me back here asap."

"Got it" she replies with determination before jumping down landing quietly. Grasping the tree branch above my head I swing my body across and land in the shadows of the building opposite us. Staying low to avoid detection I move silently round to where I can see the witch stood concentrating on her powers. Thankful that daylight is beginning to fade meaning I can stay relatively hidden.

Feeling the rain stop as my wet hair sticks to my face, the fog grows in size as Jax links me.

"Have you got fog? It's getting too dense for us to see clearly, others who don't have as heightened senses as I are going to start struggling" he tells me as I can hear the exertion from fighting in his voice.

"I'm sorting that problem now" I reply before closing the link and prowling forward. Seeing her eyes focused on the grounds ahead of her I creep around until I'm behind her. Leaning forward I breath in her ear making her stiffen then shriek as she leaps forward and spins around defensively.

"Boo" I whisper as her eyes meet mine, launching myself towards her and swinging a powerful right hook I make contact with her jaw. Hearing a satisfying crack I smirk as I then duck and punch her low in the abdomen causing her to stumble back. Grasping her by the waist I spin and push her back towards a tree stalking forward as trap her. Seeing her eyes flash purple and roots sprout up from the earth I watch to see what her plan is. They quickly wrap themselves around my leg in what I assume is meant to be a restrictive bound but as they travel further up and around my body, moving my arms to my sides, I end up chuckling from the ticklish sensation.

As she tightens her fist nothing happens and she scowls before stepping forward and trying again, her eyes blazing purple as she does so. "Nice try" I smirk before I pull my arms and legs free easily.

"You're her." she brokenly whispers through her broken jaw in horror.

Not giving her a chance to react further I launch forward once again as I extend my claws and slice down her chest making her scream in pain and bend over as her hands grasp at the deep gashes. Hearing Kia growling loudly I step in and grasp her arm, twisting it painfully making her gasp before spinning her then pulling her back against me by the neck.

*Time to say goodbye I whisper menacingly in her ear, sensing the fear inside her peak as she struggles in my vice like grip. Then, I quickly slice a claw across her neck before grasping her by the hair, using my strength I twist her head until I hear her neck snap and I drop her to the floor by my feet.

"One down." I mutter as Ki howls in my head

"Fogs gone" I hear Jax grunt through the link.

"You can thank me later" I reply cheekily before crouching low and moving quickly back towards the buildings.

Sneaking up the stairs towards where the archers are waiting for more attacks I slip through the door startling them as they spin getting into attacking positions.

"Just me boys" I say as I walk up and pat their shoulders.

"Keep up the accuracy, it's nice to see you've not forgotten what I taught you."

"Never" one of them smiles before their attention lands on the forest again.

"How many rogues did you estimate that was?" I ask them quietly.

"400-450" one of them replies as I nod that I'm in agreement.

"So we have more in coming if what we were told was right" I say.

"How many more?" A guy called Peter asks.

"Another 500 or so we think. My guess is either one more big wave or multiple smaller ones" I answer.

Hearing the sound of paws thundering the ground once again I move back giving the archers space as the gun men move to the windows of the building near us.

"Well whatever they have planned, we are about to find out" I say as their attention never wavers.

"More incoming" I link Jax as I hear him snarl in annoyance down the link.

"We are going to be overrun" he tells me. "We are getting the hearts out but it's taking time. I also don't know how many the witches can slow down without their control or effect lessening."

Seeing Flo's head pop up in the window to my right she puts her thumbs up to tell me mission accomplished.

"Flo and warriors got the hearts of the ones felled by the archers and gun men" I tell him. "See how you hold up, keep in contact and if needed I'll come with the warriors here."

Seeing the rogues break through I link him, "they've just broken the tree-line, be ready."

"Got it" he grunts as I hear his loud howl in the distance.
