Derek's POV

I ran as fast as my legs would carry me towards home.

When I got home I found a set of clothes waiting for me on the porch.

I quickly phased back and got dressed then stormed into the house and slammed the door behind me.

I walked into the living room, my feet echoing throughout the entire house.

I looked around the room to see every single Supernatural that has joined us so far, their faces filled with pity.

"What are you all looking at?" I snapped.

Everybody except Dad, Simon, Tori, and Gabriel cast their eyes toward the floor.

My eyes darted to Tori's.

I walked up to Tori, but stopped when Gabriel walked into my path.

What's his problem?, I thought.

He thinks you're gonna hurt her.

Pssh! As if he could stand a chance against me.

Somehow I found this amusing. Kid has guts, I admit that.

Focus, kid! We have to find the dumbass that took our mate.

I immediately got back on track and said to Gabriel, "I'm not gonna hurt her, I just want to ask her what happened."

It took Gabriel a couple of minutes to trust me before he slowly stepped away but still stayed close to Tori.

I turned to Tori, she looks like she's been crying.

"What happened?" I asked gently.

She pulled in a shaky breath before answering, "We just finished eating pizza at Genoa's when Chloe excused herself to go to the bathroom. She was in there for ten minutes so I went to ask her if she was alright. When I got there she was no where in sight and there was blood on the floor."

I growled. How dare they hit my Chloe?

"I'm going to Genoa's," I said. "to try to pick up Chloe and her kidnappers' scent."

"I'm coming with you." Simon and Tori said at the same time.

I shook my head. "No."

They glared at me.

"Bro," Simon said. "You're not the only one that cares for Chloe. Let us help."

I looked at their faces, they showed determination.

"You really wanna help me?"

"Yes!" They cried.

"You can help me by staying here where it's safe." I said, turning towards the door.

I felt a hand on my shoulder.

I turned and looked into the eyes of Dad, his eyes showed pity and anger.

"What do you want, Dad?" I sighed. "The longer I'm here, the farther away Chloe gets."

"I'm aware of that, son." Dad sighed. "But I think you should take Simon and Tori with you."

"Why? They're just gonna slow me down."

Simon rolled his eyes and Tori huffed.

Dad glared at me. "That's enough, Derek! I realize that you're upset, but that's no reason for you to go through this alone. You're taking Simon and Tori, and that final."

I stared him down, and Dad stood his ground. Even though I was way taller than him, I still felt as if he were the one towering over me.

"Fine." I scowled.

Tori clapped in approval and Simon fist-pumped the air.

I glared at them. "But I'm not slowing down if you guys lag behind."

"None of this would have happened if you hadn't gotten involved with Chloe." Came a new voice.

I turned again towards the door to see Chloe's Aunt Lauren.

"Lauren." Dad said surprised.

I turned my glare on her, I saw her flinch slightly. "I don't have the time for you right now. I have to find Chloe. Simon, Tori, if you're coming then we're leaving now."

They tailed behind me. When I reached the door, Lauren wouldn't move.

I growled and grabbed her wrist hard enough to bruise. "Move!"

She hissed. "Get your filthy hands off of me, mutt!"

I narrowed my eyes at her.

Dad stepped in. "Lauren?"

She turned her glare towards Dad. "What, Kit?"

"First of all, don't call my son a mutt. Second of all, don't start acting like a bitch. And lastly, let them through. He's the only hope in finding Chloe."

She glared at Dad, but still didn't budge. What the hell? Did she not want her niece found?

I moved her myself, a little more forcibly than I would a normal person.

Tori, Simon, and I headed out the door.

Simon and Tori climbed into Dad's all terrain Jeep while I phased behind the bushes, not caring about my clothes ripping apart.

I started running towards Genoa's with my siblings trailing behind me.

When I reached Genoa's I went around the back to try and find Chloe's scent.

Simon and Tori pulled in just as I picked up Chloe's scent, mixed with another werewolves scent.

Tyler.

I tore out of the parking lot and pushed my legs even faster and I heard Simon rev the engine to keep up with me.

I sniffed the air as I ran, and took a sharp left as Chloe's scent shifted.

Tires screeched as Simon nearly missed hitting a telephone pole.

Chloe's scent was still fifteen miles away, so it gave me time to think.

Lauren's words drifted through my mind over and over again.

None of this would have happened if you hadn't gotten involved with Chloe.

Was she right? I asked myself. Would none of this have happened if I just locked up my feelings and let Simon have her?

Kid! Rafe snapped. Quit thinking like that. You know damn well that Chloe wouldn't be happy.

I know that! But I promised her that I would always protect her!

You are protecting her. What do you think you're doing right now? You're on your way to protect her right now.

It doesn't matter. I still let her down. None of this would happen, if I hadn't left her alone.

Don't beat yourself up over this, kid. You know Chloe won't blame you for this.

Yeah I know.

I took in my surroundings. I was now running across a field and Simon was driving on a dirt road, leaving dust and rocks in his wake.

I sniffed the air again. Chloe was less than a half a mile away. I still smelt Tyler on the premises, but then my nose was assaulted with five new scents.

All werewolves.

Two of them I recognized as Brandon and Dalton. The other three were complete strangers to me.

Hang in there, Chloe. I thought.

Chloe's POV

I woke up to muffled voices and a horrible headache.

I sat up, trying to grasp my surroundings.

I looked around, the room I was in looked like something out of a magazine.

I spotted a window on the back wall over looking the backyard.

I hopped off the bed, walked up to the window and looked out.

I had no idea where I was because the house was surrounded by trees.

Someone barged in through the door without knocking.

I squeaked and grabbed the closest thing to me as a weapon.

Which happened to be a lamp.

The person that walked up to me was Dalton, the one I hated the most.

Dalton chuckled and pointed to the lamp. "You really think you can hurt me with that?'

"Come any closer and you'll find out." I said trying to sound brave.

Dalton wasn't falling for it. "Ooh feisty. I like it.'

"Where's Derek?" I questioned him.

He scowled when I mentioned Derek's name. He looked so much like Derek when he scowled. "Let's not talk about him. Let's have some fun."

I shook my head.

He laughed and shoved me against the wall and put his arms on either side of my head. "That's so cute. You act like you have a choice."

I gulped and gripped the lamp tighter.

Dalton cocked his head to the side. "Did you hear that? Your heartbeat sped up." He looked me in the eye. "Can't say that I blame you, I tend to have that effect on women."

My breath quickened and my hands started sweating.

Dalton's eyes flashed down to watch the rise and fall of my chest.

Pervert.

His eyes looked at me for a second before closing and he leaned forward. When his face was mere inches from my face, I brought the lamp up and smashed it into his face.

He cried out in pain and I made a break for it.

I barely managed to get five feet before I felt an arm snake around my waist and slammed against the wall.

He pinned my arms above my head. "Now why did you do that? All I wanted was a little kiss. Now I have to force myself on you."

I stuggled to get away from him.

When I struggled it just caused him to put immense pressure on my wrists and I whimpered out in pain.

His eyes locked on my wrists and he brushed his fingers over my wrists.

I whimpered in pain again.

"See what happens when you don't play nice?" he asked. "You get hurt."

I looked up at my wrists, shards of glass were imbedded into my skin from the lamp.

I looked back to Dalton's face, and he ws smirking.

"What's so funny?" I growled.

He chuckled. "I'm just imagining the look on your boy toys face when he sees what I've done."

"Was this the face you were imagining?" Came a new voice.

"Derek!" I gasped.

Derek's POV

That son of a bitch was going to pay.

"Was this the face you were imagining?" I asked.

"Derek!" I heard Chloe gasp.

Dalton turned and smiled cruely. "Yeah, something like that."

I heard Simon and Tori run up behind me.

"Let her go." I said in a deadly quiet voice.

Dalton blocked Chloe's view of me and chuckled. "As if I would let that happen?"

I growled and Dalton laughed.

My voice grew soft. "Chloe? Are you okay?

Dalton slapped her across the face before she could get a word in.

All I saw was red. I no longer controlled my body, and I didn't care. I let Rafe take over willingly.

I'm gonna rip his throat out!

I don't disagree with you there.

I growled and the bastard actually stepped back.

I smiled inwardly.

Dalton let go of Chloe and phased himself.

Okay so maybe it wasn't a very good idea to have two werewolves change in such close proximity.

I turned and ran, hoping he would follow me outside so I would have more room to kill him.

Hopefully Simon and Tori would be smart enough to grab Chloe and get the hell out of here.

I busted through the screen door to find Brandon and Tyler waiting for me in wolf form.

I stopped ten feet away from them and looked at Tyler.

I still can't believe he betrayed me, that I was stupid enough to even trust the asshole.

By now Dalton had joined us and they formed a triangle around me so I couldn't escape.

Brandon and Dalton started circling me, while Tyler just stood there staring at me.

I stared back at Tyler while still keeping an eye on Brandon and Dalton.

Dalton made the first move, making a grab for my hind leg.

I kicked him in the chest, sending him flying backwords.

Brandon came at me from my blind side and wrapped his mouth around my neck and yanked.

Blood spurted out and I howled in pain.

Jackie's POV

I heard his howl of pain and I cringed.

Derek, my long lost son, is here and is in pain.

Gage stomped on the brakes and we stopped to listen.

We heard him howl again and I turned to Gage and said, "Forget the car, let's go."

He nodded.

We got out of the car, phased, and tore out in a full sprint.

"What are we going to do?" Gage asked me inside my head.

When two mates finally become official, they get this kind of telepathy connection that allows them to talk to each other in their minds.

"I don't know"

"What do you think caused them to fight?"

"My guess? Either Brandon and Dalton tried to steal Chloe from Derek and they got caught by Derek, and Derek couldn't control his emotions."

"Can you blame him? I would do the same thing if someone tried to steal you away from me."

I smiled inwardly. "Like father, like son."

Gage gave me a wolfy grin.

We heard snarls and growls up ahead.

I sobered up and pushed my legs forward.

Derek's POV

I was barely able to hold my own against two of them.

Dalton barked at Tyler.

I could tell Tyler didn't want to fight me just like I didn't want to fight him, but he had to help his pack.

Tyler came at me from from the front, Brandon from the back, and Dalton from the side.

I barely got out of the way on time just as they collided into each other.

I had to admit, Brandon and Dalton knew how to fight. Now I had to deal with Brandon, Dalton, and Tyler.

I took a moment to glance at my injuries. I was pretty sure my ankle was shattered on my right leg, cuts and bite marks all over my body. All of these wounds were non-threatening.

The one I was worried about was my neck wound.

I was slowly losing consciousness from the blood loss.

I couldn't stand any longer, so I slowly sunk to the ground.

Dalton walked up to me with a evil look in his eye.

I laid my head down on the ground, the fight slowly leaving me.

Just as Dalton is about to deliver the final blow, a large male werewolf came charging out of the woods and body slammed him twenty feet back.

The female that was with him came up to me and nudged my shoulder.

I lifted my head to look at her, then laid my head back down and whimpered.

I didn't have the strength nor the will to fight anymore.

But she was persistent, she pulled on the scruff of my neck until I stood upright.

She nudged me again, in the opposite direction of the fight.

I walked a couple of feet and stopped and stared at her.

What is she doing?

She's trying to help you, idiot!

But why?

Ask questions later. Run!

I did as he said, my legs running as fast as I could with a broken ankle.

I didn't get very far, probably about 200 yards away.

My last thought before my vision faded was:

I love you, Chloe.

Once again I am sooooooo sorry for the late delay. What do you think will happen to Derek?

Leave your opinion in a review.
