Restlessness moved through him, and his heart pounded hard while his wolf stirred in his sleep before he woke and paced."Our mate," his wolf said. "Something is happening to her."Vargr stood up quickly. "Keep enjoying yourselves," he said to Jaime. "I need to find the Luna."Then a child came toward the gathering, and her dress was stained with blood."Some wolves," she said as she sobbed, and her voice trembled.The crowd went quiet and gathered around her."Whose blood is that," someone said."Are you hurt," another voice said.Questions came from the villagers."Do not frighten the child with your noise," the old storyteller said. "Let her speak."Silence fell over them.Vargr knelt beside the girl, and his voice was calm but firm. "What happened.""Three men came to the gate," she said. "They asked for Lena, and they wanted to know which of us was her. None of us knew what to say, so they grabbed us, and they—" Her breath stopped."And," Vargr said."They killed one of us," she

"Beloved."The voice was gentle but firm, and it came through the haze of pain and fear. Her eyes opened, and her vision was blurred, but she saw the familiar mask and the eyes that were in her dreams. This time, the eyes were gold instead of mismatched."Are you hurt," he said, and his voice was calm and steady.A sob came from her throat, and she could not speak.His expression became dark. "Did they touch you."She trembled, and her breath was shallow while the weight of what had happened pressed against her chest.He exhaled sharply, and then his voice was quieter and softer but more deadly. "Close your eyes, and do not open them until I am done."She closed her eyes and waited.Then a voice spoke. "Who dares to stand in our way," one of the men said.He did not answer, and the air trembled with a force that was monstrous. His body shifted, and his bones broke while his muscles changed. A beast came out before them, and it was large and black.The men stepped back."A Lycan," one

The battle went on in Darius's mind, and two dark beasts stood against each other while their growls went through his consciousness.A large black wolf came forward, and it was sleek and controlled. It stood between the Lycan beast and the other wolf. Draven was the form of Darius's wolf, and he was steady while his gaze was calm. He was the side of Darius that kept the chaos away.Before him, Craven was the large black Lycan beast, and he snarled while his anger was in the air like fire. His large body shook with frustration, and his eyes were wild with rage while his teeth were bared."As I thought, you all acted like fools," Craven said, and his voice went deep into Darius's mind. "If I had not been held back, my mate would not have been hurt and beaten and almost violated. But you two planned this and kept me away for fifty years."The air became thick with Craven's anger, and his muscles were tight as he was ready to tear through anything. The violence in him was clear, but Drave

Nightfall in Lena's ChambersA soft voice woke her from her sleep, and her eyes opened. It was strong and it was pulling her.She was in a simple nightdress, and she rose while she was drawn to the voice that called to her soul.It led her past the paths of the pack and deeper into the territory than she had ever gone.Then she came to an old house with walls that were worn by time, and she stepped inside."Lena."The voice came again, and it led her down a narrow passage and deeper until the air became thick with a smell that she did not know.The smell was faint but strong, and it was like cedar and wildflowers.She went forward and down into a dungeon.There, in the dim light, a figure stood. A gold mask covered half of his face, but his eyes were gold and they looked at her."Beloved," he said, and his voice broke as he breathed in. "You smell of jasmine and myrrh." He breathed in again. "Such a fine smell."Lena stopped. This was not Darius speaking, and whatever was inside him h

Maybe it was not with the speed of a wolf-man, but it was still beyond what a human could do.Jade and his mother lunged at Cedric and pulled him away with force. He hit the cell gate with a heavy sound before he fell to the floor.Cedric groaned and pushed himself up, and his instincts came out as he shifted into his wolf to fight."Stop."Craven's voice went through the tension.Everything went still."Sit."The wolf obeyed without question and fell to the ground.Craven sighed. "I do not want you to kill these two. Vargr would never forgive me. Go and hunt. Run until your anger is gone."The wolf whined but obeyed, and it left the cell without looking back.Miriam and Jade stood still with disbelief on their faces.Jade spoke first. "That is new. He stopped a wolf with only words."His mother exhaled. "No wonder wolves feel weak around them. I am leaving, and I will not be long. There is something that Kara and I must talk about."Jade went still at the name of Kara, and he watched
