Chapter 0329 Enzo’s POV ~ My hearing was gone; all I could hear was a loud pitched sound and all I could see was smoke. I wasn’t even sure if I was breathing or not. My entire body had gone numb, and I was pretty sure I was pressed against the ground, covered in rubble from the rogue hideout.
I lifted my head only to be met with more smoke; I couldn’t see any of my warriors and I'm not sure who made it out alive.
Soon, I saw the worried eyes of Ethan emerging from the smoke. He was covered in soot, and he was breathing heavily. He covered his mouth to keep from inhaling any more smoke. :
RVI ta ot, = SR He was saying something to me, but I couldn’t hear him.
Jack was next to appear and together they grabbed each side of me, trying to get me to my feet. It wasn’t until moaned that I started to feel the pain my body endured. I growled loudly as I stood to my feet.
Max was working hard at healing me, but I knew he was exhausted.
The rogues threw a grenade into their own hideout in a last attempt to kill us.

“Lila...” I said through gasps of air.
“They were able to move her out of the
way,” Ethan assured me.
“And my mother?” “Already on her way to the pack hospital,” Jack was next to answer.
“She’s sustained a lot of injuries that will need to be cared for right away.” I nodded as we continued to make our way out of the smoke.
Once I was able to see again, I scanned the scene around me. I had warriors sitting on the ground with open wounds from silver weapons. Their wolves weren't healing them which meant some of these weapons must have been laced in wolf’s bane.
I looked down at my arm which hadn’t healed yet either and sighed.
“Everyone needs to get looked at by .
the pack doctors,” I ordered. “Return there now.” “What about Paul?” Jack asked, raising his brows. “He’s still out there. He’s not going to stop until Lila is in his custody.” I stared over in the far distance where I knew Lila was. One of my warriors was holding her unconscious body in his arms. Her head was leaning against his chest, and she looked incredibly cozy, curled up with this warrior.
A low growl escaped my throat as Max grew uneasy. He didn’t like other men touching our mate.
“First thing first is making sure everybody is okay. Then, we will go after Paul,” I said, walking toward Lila.
The warrior holding Lila saw me coming and I could see the color draining from his face. it was probably the way I was glaring at him. However, I said nothing to him.
I wrapped my arms around Lila pulled her out of his arms and cradled her in mine.
I was more than relieved to see that she was breathing and seemingly unharmed. She was just exhausted.
Using that much power took a lot out of her.

Her eyes fluttered open, and I saw the | concern in her gaze as she stared at my face.
“You're okay...” she whispered, tears welling in her eyes. “I thought I lost you...” wi I stared at her for a moment longer, watching as some tears strayed loose from her features and stained her cheeks.
I bent down and kissed her tears away, nuzzling my nose against her hair.
“You'll never lose me,” I whispered in return.
Her lips found mine and my heartbeat wildly in my chest. I felt light sparks tingle around my body. She tasted so good, and I couldn’t get enough of her.
I let my tongue wander into her mouth, tasting everything, she had to offer.
“Alpha, we are heading back,” Ethan
said through a mindlink.
I had almost forgotten we weren’t i alone. I was seconds away from ripping Lila’s clothing off.
