Broken Alpha, Paulina Vasquez [online e reader TXT] 📗

and I turned around to see Alec, walking with his arm around a beautiful curvy woman.

“Alpha. Luna.” He greeted us. “This is Helena. Her father is the Delta of this pack and was thrown in the cells a few days ago by the new Alpha.” He informed us with an emphasis on new Alpha.

“New Alpha?” I asked.

“Stefanos.” Alec responded.

“What happened to Hades?” Dimitri asked.

“No one has seen him since Alpha Eros died. We believe that Stefanos killed Hades because he's claimed our pack. Our Beta challenged Stefanos for the pack and was also killed. My father tried to step down from his position and Stefanos threw him in the prison.” Helena said.

“Is Stefanos planning to attack Olympus Blood Moon tonight?” Dimitri asked.

“Yes. Our pack has been overrun with rogues who are very loyal to him. They're planning on attacking and forcing three hundred of our fighters to join the rogues.” She said.

“How many rogues would you guess there are?” I asked.

“Maybe four hundred.” She said.

That would make about seven hundred fighters combined for Stefanos. Olympus Blood moon has about seventeen hundred pack members total, but only twelve hundred live in the main pack territory, the rest lived on the three islands that belonged to us. We have about eight hundred fighters, which would make the numbers almost even. Stefanos was the previous Alpha of Olympus Blood Moon, he would know just how many fighters he would need.

“Do you know if a young she wolf, Odessa Theodorus, is being held here.” I asked.

“There was a female they brought in recently. One of the guards is a friend, he's been helping me sneak into the cells to check on my father. I scented a female who's not from our pack down there.” She told us.

“What did she smell like?” Dimitri asked.

“Strawberry sorbet.” She said.

“That's her!” Dimitri's fists clenched.

“Is there any way we could sneak in? Is the prison heavily guarded?” Alec asked

“There's normally two guards on duty, the bars are made of silver, so it makes escaping difficult. Everyone is busy preparing for the attack, with so many unfamiliar scents around, you should be able to get around unnoticed.” She said. “Well, except maybe you Alpha. Your aura is very strong.” She added and bowed her head.

“We need a plan.” I said.

“The cells are in their own building, near the forest tree line.” She told us.

“Maybe we can create a diversion.” Alec suggested.

We crept down low behind trees and boulders near the tree line. The building that contained the prison cells was just ahead and Dimitri moved a little closer to scout the area out. Alec had linked the three scouts we had sent earlier to our location to help keep a look out. A few moments later, Dimitri returned.

“Do you have your lighter with you?” He asked me.

“Yes!”

“There's a building near the training field on the other side. Do you think your flames could reach it?” He asked.

I wasn't sure about the distance from this far, but I would certainly try. “I think so.”

I pulled out the lighter from my pocket and flicked it on. The flame seemed to send energy pulsing through me. I willed a ball of fire into my hand and it did as I wanted. I focused on the target building and took a few nervous deep breaths.

“Remember, your emotions control the level of energy. Focus your emotions into the energy.” Dimitri mind linked me.

“We can do this!” Rae assured me.

I closed my eyes. I thought about Odessa and the pain she must have been suffering because of her worthless mate. I thought about what happened to Kosta and about Leo’s death. I thought about Stefanos beating a young Dimitri. The ball of fire was practically glowing blue, it was so strong and hot.

I opened my eyes, walked closer to the edge of the tree line and took aim at the building. The fire landed on the roof and I willed it to spread across the entire rooftop. Total chaos broke loose and everyone seemed to be running in the direction of the fire.

“Bullseye!” Rae yipped.

“Quickly now!” Dimitri said and we ran towards the back of the prison cells. Alec, Helena, Dimitri and I, stood with our backs pressed up against the building listening for footsteps. Helena looked around the corner and told us the prison guard at the front door ran in the direction of the fire. We made a move to the front door; Alec pulled the door open and we stepped inside. A set of stone steps led down to an iron door. Judging by the foul smell coming from below, the cells were definitely down there.

Helena opened the iron door at the bottom first, we heard a low voice growl, “I told you, if you want to see your father, you'll have to suck me off first!”

“Actually, someone else wants to speak with you David.” Helena said and swung the door wide open to reveal Dimitri and Alec.

“What the fuck!” He managed to say before Dimitri shoved his elbow into David's nose. The guard fell back with blood sputtering out of his nose and mouth.

“If you try and mind link anyone, I'll rip your throat out!” Dimitri growled at him and he nodded his head.

“Where the fuck is Odessa?”

David's eyes moved down the hall and Dimitri grabbed the back of his neck, leading him in that direction. We looked into the cell all the way at the end and found Odessa. She was chained with a silver collar around her neck to keep her from shifting. Her
