***Amber's POV***

I felt something wet touching my inner thighs. Slowly, the inability to move was subsiding. Deep down, I knew what was happening, but I refused to believe it. Knowing that I would regret it, I opened my eyes, and the urge to throw up was back. I saw the man that had similar features as Alpha Blake. I tried to squirm away from his touch, but his grip only got tighter. I felt his tongue slide from my outer thigh to my inner thigh. He slowly traces around my c**t. His touch made shivers go down my spine, and it wasn't the pleasurable type."It looks like someone is finally awake. I would hate to have to make love to you while you were sleeping. It's better when they can fight back. You don't understand how amazing it feels to feel someone fight under you until they finally submit." His breath smelt like rotting flesh, his hands were dry and rough, and his eyes were full of lust. I tried to fight, but I couldn't stop the tears from falling from my eyes. "No, my sweet, don't cry. I will not touch you.....yet. I want Ryder to watch me take you and mark you as mine. I can't wait to see him in pain when he sees and feels you mating with another wolf and the pain of a mate bond breaking." If I had anything left in my stomach, I would've thrown up by now.

"Who are you, and why are you doing this?!" It happened again. My voice had that sense of authority and rage.

"Oh, someone is feisty; keep that for when I take you later." His voice was full of lust and desire. I was hearing him say that pissed off my wolf and me.

"TELL ME! TELL ME WHY YOU ARE DOING THIS TO ME!" I refuse to be a damsel in distress. The amount of rage and dominance in my voice shocked me.

His eye grew as wide as saucers as his lip started trembling. "Because I want the power that they took from me. I was supposed to be alpha, not my brother! It was supposed to be mine! I'm the rightful alpha of the Silver Moon Pack! But it was given to the father's favorite son. Now he will give it to his son, but I refuse to allow that to happen. I don't care who I have to kill! As long as I regain what was supposed to be mine." He had a wide grin across his face and a crazed look in his eyes while saying all of this.

Something wasn't right if his father gave the alpha title to his other son. He had to have done something worthy of losing the title, and if that's the case, is that why he's a rogue? I was debating if I should ask him when the sound of the door closing signaled to me, he left. "Amber, I have a plan on how to get us out of her. Although you may not like it." Relief washed over me when my wolf started talking to me. "Why wouldn't I like it? What are you thinking?" Something told me that this would not end well.

***Ryder's POV***

It has been days since Amber was kidnapped, and we had no leads. My wolf is going insane, constantly walking back and forth in my head. "We wouldn't be having this problem if you would've mated her." I swear I have to have the most annoying wolf sometimes. "Asshole, you know we share thoughts, right? You're just mad because you know I'm right."

"Ok fine, yes, you're right, but we need to focus on finding Amber."

"Well, did you tell your dad the information that rogue gave us?" f**k, how could I have forgotten? I quickly mind linked my dad and our betas. Soon I sat in front of a pissed-off alpha. I'm not sure if the information I told him pissed him off or the fact that I forgot to say to him.

"If what that rogue told you is true, then we have a bigger problem on our hands. I have an older brother named Charles, and he was supposed to be alpha, but he was exiled from the pack before claiming the title. I found my mate before him, and he had an unhealthy obsession with your mother. He had convinced himself that she was supposed to be his mate. But when he found his actual mate, he refused to accept it, so he ended up rejecting her."

"Wait, he lost his position to be alpha because he rejected his mate?" The story he was telling me made little sense.

"No, Ryder, he lost his position because he kidnapped and raped your mother. He knew that if he marks her, it will sever the mate bond." My face paled upon hearing this. Was this his plan? To steal my mate from me? I must've looked like I had seen a ghost because I felt him handing me a small glass with some brown liquid, which I assume was whisky. "He believed he was successful, but what he didn't know was that I had already marked and mated your mom. The consequences of his actions were death, but I showed mercy to him and exiled him. Now it looks like I shouldn't have been as nice. But since we know what he wants, let's use it to our advantage. Although, I don't know how has being a rogue affected him and his wolf. But from what we know now, he has a decent amount of rogues in his control, so he is using his alpha aura on them." I listened to everything he was saying, but Jake kept whimpering and whining. Suddenly, I felt like I was kicked in the gut.

"Something is wrong with our mate! I can feel it." Is this what it feels like when the mate bond is broken? I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Stand up, Ryder. She's fine. I'm going to contact some of our neighboring packs because something tells me we might end up going to war against my rogue brother."

***Amber's POV***

The sounds of people talking wake me up. "Charles is so power-hungry that he doesn't realize if he claims her now, it'll weaken her mate, so we'll be able to attack." As much as I want to argue, she's right. When will it be the right time?

"Paul, I think it's best that we don't question, boss. He seems to be unhinged, but maybe we'll be able to over through him." The room became silent. "Jade, let's attack now; they think we're still sleeping, so we'll catch them off guard."

"No, we must stick to the original plan. As long as we can keep him from marking us, we should be good. Remember, it's all about timing, and right now isn't the right time."

"Well, if that's the case, maybe he wouldn't mind if we had a little fun with her." I could hear a zipper being unzipped and someone undoing their buckle. The bed dipped down as I felt someone hovering over me, their hot moist breath filling my nostrils. I felt one finger enter me, and it slowly pumped in and out. "On my signal, Amber, shift, and attack." The sound of someone breaking the door down stopped me.

"Is this how you treat your future alpha? I see now why you're rogues." I heard someone's neck being snapped, followed by another neck being snapped.

"I'm sorry, Marie. I'll let no one hurt you." He placed a wet, sloppy kiss on my cheek, and his kisses traveled down towards my marking spot. I felt all the color leave my face, and my blood ran cold.

"Amber, NOW! ATTACK!" Jade didn't have to tell me twice. In an instant, I shifted into my large white wolf and bit down on his arm until I heard the bone crack. Without waiting for a second, I took off in the window's direction and jumped out. As soon as I landed, I took off in a sprint towards the woods. This was the second time in my life that I ran into the woods without knowing where I was going. I knew one thing for sure. I was going to get the f*ck away from there.

I'm not sure how long I've been running, but I didn't want to stop. My entire body ached all over, but I kept pushing myself. "Jade, I promise we'll stop once we get somewhere that is familiar." Halting to a stop, I started sniffing the air. "I know this smell!" I was so excited, but I knew I couldn't continue and risk exhausting Jade. "I'm sorry, Jade. I know I pushed you beyond our limits. But I'm also sorry that I have to do this."With the small amount of energy I had left, raising my head towards the sky and let out the loudest howl I could make. Dropping to the ground, I felt Jade give me control again, and all I could do was hope that I didn't alert my kidnappers of where I was.

***Charles's POV***

That little b***h broke my f*cking arm! I guess now I have to change my plans. Instead of marking her and claiming her as mine, I'll rip her throat out in front of her mate. Oh, she's so naïve. Does she not know that she lead me directly to her pack? Thanks to her, she made my job so much easier. Father always told me to keep my friends close and my enemies closer. I assume father told him the same since he has allied with the Red Smoke pack. If only he knew that the alpha of that pack has ties with rogues and the black market. My brother has always been too merciful, and I knew that would eventually be his downfall.
