“We can’t mate and reproduce like your kind can,” he said. “Rebuilding our population will take centuries as it is. If the wars. had continued, we would’ve been eradicated.”
According to legend, vampires couldn’t have children in the traditional sense. Vampires had to be created. They were humans reborn after death.
I wondered vaguely how Braden’s people had come to exist in the first place.
Did they kill humans for fun? Did they save them from dying?
The answer felt important, but it was a conversation for another day.
“I don’t understand,” I said, “If shifters were really that powerful, so powerful they could destroy entire populations of supernatural beings, then why isn’t that part of our history?”
It seemed like the type of story the Council would revel in.
The story of the fierce shifter wolves who defeated the evil vampires and witches and came out on top as the strongest supernatural beings in our region.
They told us so many other lies…why not that one, too?
“Remember when I said both sides had to make concessions? Braden asked. “Even though our numbers were dwindling, we were still killing shifters. And when things went from bad to worse the witches threatened to curse them with infertility.”
I gasped, and he nodded.
“We were at a stalemate. No side could win. And that’s when we came to the agreement.”
His gaze drifted to the sky “In order to end the war, the wolves had to erase all evidence of their power so younger generations wouldn’t get any about uprisings again. The wolf shifters agreed to sequester their people, never to insert themselves in the businesses of vampires, witches, or humans again.”
So that’s why we had no idea vampires or witches actually existed.
Braden turned back to me, a sad look in his eyes.
“Unfortunately, that meant that the wolves” mating practices could resume as they wanted them to, unchecked.”
ideas For years now, she-wolves were mated to two wolves and encouraged to produce pups, but the Elders had always made it sound like a privilege, they’d made it sound like they honored the women who helped grow the population of our pack.
But now they were pushing the boundaries again, slowly, starting with Xander and Zane. They were bringing back the traditions that started the Great Wars in the first place. But with no outside help from witches and vampires this time, they might actually get away with it Or so they thought I looked up at Braden, so se xy and sure, and wondered again if I could really trust him.
If I could, then he their might just be my secret weapon, my key to stopping the Council from making all of us she-w s ex sl aves again..
But if I got closer to Brad to Braden, if I put even more trust in him…
Could I keep myself from falling for him?
Xander “That’s easier said than done, Xander, Zane warned.
I growled.
Getting rid of Alice wasn’t going to be easy, I didn’t need to be reminded of that.
Her reputation was already scarred from being mated so late and from worming her way out of the Council’s intended. match. If we rejected her, too, I didn’t know what would happen.
At best she’d be banished, forced to live as a rogue, but at worst, she’d be killed.
Before I could consider any other terrible possibilities, the breeze shifted, and an overwhelming scent filled my nose.
Zane stopped, too, and turned his head in the direction of the smell.
Lanie.
It felt briefly like my brain was short-circuiting. With Hunter at the helm, my senses were heightened, and her scent was even more overwhelming.
Find her. Take her. We need her. Hunter urged me to follow the trail that would lead me to Lanie.
“What is she doing out here?” Zane asked.
“I don’t know, but we’re about to find out.” And then Hunter was off, chasing the sweet smell carried on the wind while Zane’s wolf padded close behind.
Soon, we’d reached the edge of a lake, and it took a moment to register the sight in front of me.
Lanie was there, but she wasn’t alone.
Alow growl ripped from my chest.
She was with another man…
Xander
Who the hell was this guy, and what was he doing with Lanie?
Jealously bubbled up inside me like a volcano ready to erupt.
Hunter pawed at the ground, his teeth bared, ready to pounce, but I held him back, Not right now.
I was about to shift back, clothes be da mned, and give him a piece of my mind, when another scent hit me.
It wasn’t the warm, animalistic scent I was used to with other wolves. It was something colder, more ancient-seeming He wasn’ta shifter.
But he wasn’t human, either…..
Zane’s muzzle was raised to the sky also trying to decipher the strange scent.
“What are we dealing with here?” he asked me.
I hated to admit my ignorance, especially since he was with Lanie. “I don’t know, but I’m sure we can take him, whoever he Suddenly Lanie stood up and turned around to face us.
“Don’t attack, Xander!” she called.
S$ hit. She could hear us.
The man stood up, too, and turned around to face us.
He wore an amused expression on his face, and another hot wave of jealousy surged through me..
He was handsome, even I could see that, and I was sure Lanie felt the same.
So what the f uck were they doing here alone together?
“He knows who you are,” Lanie gestured toward the man. “I’m in good hands.”
Good hands?
And what exactly was he doing with those “good hands?”
Zane snarled. He was thinking the same thing.
“Fine.” Lanie planted her hands on her hips. “If you’re afraid of the competition, and don’t feel your equipment is up to snuff.” she raised an eyebrow, “then by all means, stand over there and continue barking at us.”
Astrained sound ripped from my chest, something between a howl and a snarl And then I was shifting and marching straight over to Lanie, Zane not far behind me.
Our equipment was very much up to snuff.
Zane and I were about to remind her of that.
“Who. The f uck. Are you?” I demanded, locking eyes with the mo therfu cker who was still just standing there smirking.
I was about to wipe that s hit straight off his face.
Zane stepped up, foxing the guy with an ice-cold glare. “And what the f u ck are you doing with our mate?”
Lanie
Nope.
No way was I gonna play this “who’s got the biggest di ck” game.
Even if Xander’s and Zane’s di cks were very big..
Go ds, and the way Xander’s had felt when he pushed himself inside me. It was a kind of pleasure I’d never felt before, and if I was honest, I was dying to feel it again.
And Zane’s..it was so huge I couldn’t even take the whole thing into my mouth. Maybe if I tried again, I could…
Nope, nope, nope. Not going there again.
