Page 103 of Family: Posy 4

"Maple's on a rampage. It's been two hours now and Ethan hasn't been able to regain control. I'm afraid the king will put him down this time. I know I have no right to ask this of you, but we all saw you tame him yesterday. Will you help him again?" Lincoln dropped to his knees. "Please save my son's wolf! I'm begging you! Please, Posy!"

Oh, my heart! Poor Maple! Poor Ethan and his family!

Raising my chin and ignoring my mates' frantic calls to wait for them, I helped Uncle Lincoln to his feet and propped him against the door, then hustled over to the hall closet and grabbed my flip flops.

By then, my mates had clamored down the stairs in various stages of undress and made a beeline for me.

"Posy? What are you thinking?" Jayden asked calmly.

"I'm thinking I'm going to go save my cousin's wolf," I answered just as calmly.

Slipping into my shoes, I rushed back to my uncle, grabbed his elbow, and tugged him outside.

"Take me to him," I said.

"No, takeallof us to him," Mason commanded, reverting to what I called his 'business' voice and face: blank, emotionless, and intimidating as all get-out.

Next thing I knew, I was in Ash's SUV and Cole was buckling my seat belt. The boys were muttering and cursing under their breaths as we took off after Lincoln's car, but I tuned them out to hear what my wolf was saying.

Quartz going to be a problem, Lark cautioned me.We both know it. We need a plan or going to be a tragedy.

Do you have an idea? Because I'm fresh out,I admitted.

Maybe. How sure you can calm Maple?

Pretty darn, especially if I draw on the power of all six packs.I tilted my head as I tried to guess where she was going with this.Why?

Then I have idea.

I'm listening,I told her.

Quartz

No way in hell was I going to let my mate face down an out-of-control gamma wolf!

As we followed Lincoln Everleigh's car, I fought a losing battle against the ball of rage in my gut.

No, that wasn't true. I wasn't even fighting. I was fine with letting it consume me.

Calm down, Jayden advised me.Control your temper; don't let your temper control you.

I growled at him.

Quartz, Lark linked me.You let us do this.

No, I won't!

Yes, you will. I am luna of six packs. If anyone can help Maple, it me.

You are an amazing she-wolf,I said slowly,and I will support you in everything you do, little mate.

Thank y—

So long as you're safe,I continued.And a runt going up against a gamma wolf ain't anything close to safe.

I agree, but he not going to attack us. That not rage; that pain. Posy can calm him down just like yesterday.
