Chapter 72: I Can Help!
Lottie POV
“Charlotte.. please.” I heard Kane whine, feeling his hand graze over my shoulder as I faced therather beautiful face of HAvoc; he reminded me of a magnificent creature I had seen in a dreamonce. Lifting my hand to touch his black fur, I jumped when Havoc’s snarling teeth snapped at theside of me Kane was trying to grab. Anger exploded within me, and in a moment of insanity, I raisedmy hand and smashed it down on Havoc’s snout with strength I did not know I had.
“I got ya girl!” Sage barked, letting me know she had also had enough of Knox and Havoc’s tempertantrum.
“What the hell is wrong with you!” I barked. Havoc’s head spun to glare at me, those eyes shiningwith bloodlust.
“Charlotte! What are you doing?!” Kane gasped, more of a statement than a question, I noted asfear radiated from him and those behind me.
“Teaching this little shit a lesson!” I growled, turning to face Havoc, whose eyes. had tightened onme. Those around us who hadn’t had a chance to get from the hall watched as they backed upagainst the walls, pulling loved ones against them instinctively. Their movement making Havocantsy.
“Yes, I am talking about you!“I hissed at Havoc to keep his attention on me.
“THAT“, I snarled, pointing back at Kane, who had closed the gap between us and was running hishand up my arms protectively. “Is your brother! My mate! HE can touch me if he wants! We don’tneed your permission!” I snarled, stepping closer to Havoc’s muzzle and away from Kane.
“Kitty!” Havoc purred into my head, his tone beyond needy.
“KITTY isn’t coming to play with you till you learn some manners!” I explained firmly, tryingdesperately to sound as authoritative as Kane did with me- but aloud,

wanting everyone to know I was ok because Havoc’s replies were coming directly into my head.Except for the enraged growl that ripped from his throat, given the screams, I knew everyoneheard.
“You will not scare me, Havoc! I am your mate!” I screamed over his roar. Seeing his eyes movebehind me, I turned and saw our Alpha and Alpha Sebastian approach. Luna’s face washed withpanic for her son as she followed behind them, clearly at her mate’s reluctance. But I knew Laurawouldn’t leave; despite the fear they undoubtedly felt for the beast of a wolf beside me, they hadbraved it to try and save their children. Looking around for my father, I knew before I finishedscanning that he would be gone without a care for me.
“It’s ok!” I soothed, but sensing their approach, Havoc lowered, ready to attack those he felt were athreat.
“HAVOC! NO!” I screamed something he scarcely heard in time, given the way he slid along thefloor. I tried to chase him, seeing him lunge into the lineup of loved. ones coming to help him, butKane’s strong arms wrapped around me, pulling me to the side.
“You can’t reason with Havoc!” He bellowed over the chaos that exploded behind me.
“Bullshit! You just need to try!” I raged, shoving him to no avail. “Kane… I need you to let me go!”
“You promised to obey!” He pleaded with me, his eyes frantically watching whatever was going onbehind me.
“NOT at the extent of losing a mate!” I shook my head, trying to turn, but Kane’s hands grippedeither side of my shoulders, keeping me focused on him as he tried to drag me from the hall. Sageand I both knew if it wasn’t for the adrenaline coursing through my body, he would have been ableto throw me over his shoulder without breaking a sweat, but I would be damned if I would lose thisfight.
“Charlotte! Have you seen him? He isn’t going anywhere! HE is three times the size of my fatherand will destroy everyone! Especially now he has tasted blood!” Closing my eyes, I shook my head;he was wrong! I knew I could get through to him.

“Then we need to stop him! Listen to me, Kane! If you love me, you will let go of me! I can do this; Iknow I can.” I begged, hearing hysterical screams followed by the tell–tale sound of bonesbreaking.
“How?” Kane asked, ignoring the sounds, his eyes searching mine for an
answer.
“I don’t know, I just know!” With a nervous nod, he let me go, his eyes filled with sadness. “I loveyou, Charlotte!” His face softened as he cupped my cheek tenderly, the embrace feeling more like a
goodbye than an ‘I trust you‘. Spinning to see Luna behind me, her eyes filled with tears, bloodcoating her once stunning gown.
“Mom, Take her! Keep her safe!” He whispered, and to my utter devastation, I watched him shiftbefore my eyes, limbs elongating, furr sprouting from the skin as he transformed into a beautifulwhite and gold wolf, half the size of his brother, nuzzling my face as Luna held me before rushinginto the oncoming storm that was Havoc.
“I have to do Something, Princess, Mike gave everyone that shit! They are useless!” Kaneconveyed through the link we shared, and suddenly, I realised what he meant by Havoc woulddestroy everyone.
“Sage!” I begged my wolf just as hands gripped my wrists tightly, pulling me towards where a groupof people were huddled together, scared by what they were seeing.
“Lottie, help me get these people out!”
“I need to stop Knox!” I moaned, shaking my head.
“Something is wrong with us; we can’t shift; it must be..” She prattled on, tears streaming from hereyes.
“Mike!” I whispered, shaking my head and wondering how on earth he did it, how he poisoned thewhole damn pack and those visiting.
“No, Havoc… It must be him!” She blurted out, “We should have done more to understand him as apup! Taught him how to control it.” My eyes widened, but I

dismissed her rambling. Now wasn’t the time for this conversation.
“Luna, I can help!” I started to say, and she nodded, motioning to the people beside her.
“Yes, you can help me get these people to safety! They are under our protection. There is more tobeing a luna than baring pups, and you are about to learn on the job! Come on!” She sighed, pullingme to my feet while holding her hand out to those around us, trying to instruct them to follow me.
“NOW!” She snapped with the same authoritative tone she had used on the boys to get them out ofmy room earlier today. Like the boys, they obliged and stood rushing to me as I tried to guide themto the door, my eyes falling on the heartbreaking scene of my mates fighting in the centre of thehall. Sebastian lay on the floor, bleeding his beta at his side, applying pressure as…my alpha laystill, not ten feet from where we stood, his body covered in blood and those once proud eyes lookedat me, empty and lifeless.
