I quietly ask Raven “That’s what Dane told Eric.”
X “He hasn’t said anything. Not a single word. He would feel it right. He would know that his brother was killed.”
“Possibly. It’s a little different when they are in different packs. There is a good chance he felt something. But there is also just as strong a chance that he felt nothing. Why? “I think it was a setup.”
My eyes flicker around to make sure we are alone. “He hasn’t mentioned his brother once. And the questions. He is desperate to know if the twins are Lycans.”
Ashburn
Neah Raven convincesto stay at the party. She somehow convincesto sit and do nothing. To let Eric and Klaus keep an eye on Roan while I relaxed.
I couldn’t relax. In fact relaxing was the furthest thing from my mind. “I should just kill him!”
I whisper for the hundredth time. “Get it over and done with.”
‘I agree!’ Nyx murmurs “Shifting is not going to help your situation. You said it yourself, you feel pain moments before your shift. And if you were a Wolf, you wouldn’t be able to shift anyway! Think of the pups.”
“Lam thinking of them!”
I grumble back “I know you want him gone. And to be honest, I agree with you, but just do this for me, okay. Let the guys handle it.”
“If something happens “Nothing is going to happen! There are too many people. It would be a death sentence.”
‘I don’t think Roan cares about that.
My gut feeling toldeverything I needed to know, and so did Nyx. She hated sitting here while doing nothing. She hated the waiting when she knew we could kill him in seconds and get it over with.
“Besides, what do you think his pack will do when they find out you killed him?”
Raven whisper shouts at”L…I don’t know.”
“Precisely. We don’t need another war. At least not yet anyway.”
I look over to where they had set up the bar. Roan is sitting at the bar. Klaus and Eric are either side of him as he throws back drink after drink. “The guy is going to be teo drunk to do anything. anyway!”
Raven smiles.
After a few more drinks, Roan leaves his seat. The other two stay at the bar, preventing any suspicion as Roan makes his way onto the dance floor. He stays there for all of three seconds. The moment he see’s me, he makes a very wobbly path in my direction. A huge grin plastered to his face.
“Neah.”
He slurs as he stops in front of me. “Can I have this dance?”
“Resting!”
I mumble back “Ah,”
He smiles and places his hands on my stomach. I wanted to vomit. who thinks its okay to do that? “The pups. I’m sure one whirl won’t hurt them!”
“She is on rest. Doctor’s orders.”
Raven mutters as she stands.
“Pfft!’ He grabsand pullsup in the air, holdingagainst him and just high enough that my feet can’t touch the ground. “Let her go!”
Raven snaps at him He glares at her and spinsaway. “We need to talk.”
With each twirl, I feel sick. Without my feet being planted on the floor, I couldn’t force myself away from his tight grip.
He had my stomach pressed against his. His arms coiled around me. His face dangerously clase to mine.
“I think you are lying toabout your precious-Alpha.”
The previous slurring disappears, it was like I.
Im om hadn’t watched him down drink after drink. He Spins us again, mov ingtowards a darkened corner. I see Klaus and Eric moving in my direction. I If Roan tries anything, they would be too far away to’Save me.
They needed to move faster. “Please putdown.”
I mutter, digging my nails into his arms “Not until you tellwhere your mate is.”
His dark grey eyes narrow as he waits for an answer.
He leans itclose, his horrible breath | fans my face, “You see, I know Neah.
I know fy brother didn makeit hNOV know Jess didn’t make it there So I will ask you one more time, where is your mate?”
‘I have already told you, he’s doing swork in the city.”
I whisper and he spins impossibly faster. Hise hands ‘slide to my lower backand dig into my skin.
“Don’t lie toNeah. I know he killed my brother. I know it’s your birthday, he wouldn’t miss that less there that was something serious happening.”
“I’m not lying.”
“Spoken like a true liar.”
He murmurs and smiles . “It takes one to know one.”
“Let her go, Roan.”
Eric appears to one side of us. stopping Roan from spinningany further.
“Tellwhere he is!”
Roan snapped just as my nose is filled with Danes’ woody scent ‘I’m right here! And I suggest you let go of my mate.”
Danes’ voice echoes through me. The relief I feel hearing that he is his unlike anything I have ever felt.
I’m dropped as Roan turns to face my mate. Jenson stands tall next to Dane along with Jess. And then there was Mallory, the girl who had almost beatento death.
“You killed my brother!”
Roan screeches “No, I didn’t.”
Dane shrugs his shoulders ‘I felt his death. Don’t lie to me”
“And yet it wasn’t me. It was a Lycan.”
Dane speaks calmly, though I feel his annoyance “Don’t bullshit me!”
Roan screeches. grabbingand pullingback against him. His hand coils around my throat and he squeezes as I stare at Dane.
The music stops and I feel all eyes on me. “It wasn’t Dane.”
Mallory mutters as she steps forward with her hands raised. “There are Lycans that have the taste for flesh, it was them.”
“Bullshit!”
Roan yells as he squeezes my throat a little more. “They are all dead.”
“Do you really believe that? I believe that Dark Ridge is your brother’s pack, right? There is a place before Dark Ridge that has been claimed. The town is owned by Rogue Lycans. Your brother passed through with one of our kind as his prisoner.”
she gestures to Jess. “He was never going to make it out of our town alive.”
Her brown eyes find mine as he continues to squeeze my throat. My vision is darkening. Her face was not the last I wanted to see. “So you killed him?” Roan growls.
“No.”
Nyx.’ I whisper as I find it impossible to breathe ‘What about the pups?’ She whispers back.
