“What the fuck do you have a witch in your clubhouse for?” Cyrus snarls.
“Quiet,” I command without looking at my brother.
“Daddy,” Sage whimpers, balling her hands into fists and gripping my shirt.
“Why would they take my niece?” I demand, holding Karsyn’s gaze.
“Because they’re pure. Rare. Innocent. They want their blood,” Karsyn says, swallows, and takes a deep breath. As she steps forward and whispers with tears in her eyes, “Death is coming, and with him, blood will spill. Blood will bring wrath. He intends to wage a war. Control those who he can.”
“The hell is this shit? Who is Death?” My brother growls. “Who the fuck is this witch?”
“She’s my mate,” I snarl, not looking away from Karsyn. “Why would he take my niece? There’re other pure-blooded wolves out there.”
“Maybe so, but Redwich means something to Death. He wants from this county. This town. He’s coming for you all. For all of us. But I know his secret. I know how to beat him.”
“And how’s that?” Big Daddy’s deep voice booms.
“By using me. I’m the key to destroying him,” Karsyn says, shocking us all. Holding her hand out in front of me, she silently asks me to take it. I do and go still as she shows me something I never expected. Visions of the past and present. It’s like looking through her eyes.
This woman, she’s not just an earth witch. She’s much more than that. She’s also my mate, and I’m going to keep her.
She’s the key to the answers we need.
“How are you the key?” Cyrus demands harshly.
“I’m more like half the key. The other half of the key is your mate, Harmony,” she utters before her knees give out under her, and she collapses.
I catch her in my arms. Her words fill my head. There’s more to this than what she said. I feel it. I saw what she showed me. I know without a doubt it wasn’t a lie. Karsyn isn’t one to deceive. I don’t think she’d know how. The woman is pure. Innocence. A complete conflict with all those around her. It’s why I’ll keep her. Make her mine. Mate with her and not let her go.
With her help, we’ll also find my niece and then go from there to see if my brother and I go back to being rivals or not.
Chapter Seven
Corbin
Holding Karsyn’s delicate body in my arms, I adjust her there as Dane steps forward.
“Here, give her to me. I’ll put?—”
“No,” I snarl, stopping him before he can say another word, “I’ve got her.”
“She’s my sister.” Dane cocks a brow.
“And she’s my fuckin’ mate, I’ve got her,” I growl, the words more animalistic than I expect them to be.
“How about I take her,” Daniel states, his eyes on his daughter. “I’ll take her and put her back in your room while you take care of this.”
“I said I’ve got her.” My wolf is more than ready to come out if anyone tries to take her from me.
“I’m not trying to take her from you, Corbin.” Daniel keeps his voice calm and lifts his gaze from Karsyn’s slight form. “But right now, there’s more to deal with than just my daughter.”
He’s right and I know it, but this is my mate. My responsibility.
“Your daughter?” Big Daddy speaks up. That booming voice of his, for once, sounds surprised. “Since when the fuck do you have a daughter?”
“Just found her,” Daniel answers, not looking away. “You know you can trust me with her. I’m not going to let anything happen to her.”
I believe him. I know I can, but after what she showed me, I don’t want to risk her being away from me. Hell, I’m still reeling from what she showed me.
