“You’re not worried,” David says.

“No,” I say, shaking my head. “But it’s a good thing they are. The fox has come to make his displeasure known.”

He’s someone I would never have matched with Nora, if it were up to me. Before seeing them together, I could never have imagined them working. Nora’s sweet and vulnerable, and he’s just purely psychotic.

But over the last month, I’ve seen a different side to him when he’s around Nora. He’s so used to the dark side of life that Nora’s struggles barely seem to faze him. Instead, he provides her with a calm and steady presence, not flinching at the horrors of her mind.

It’s something I’m a little envious of.

But it’s cemented the fact that he’s perfect for her.

And I’m glad to have him on my side.

Especially now, when we’ve got to track down Nora and kill whoever dared to take her.

CEVON

Three days earlier…

I have no choice. I have to take her.

When I get to the scene, when I see the gorgeous woman standing behind my brother, not cowering away but also not fighting… I know.

I take chase, fucking up with my masking, and the moment she scents me, I know it’s over.

With a sigh, I shift into my human form and grab the small dart I brought with me.

I only did it on the tiny off chance I’d need it. And, somehow, my lion was right.

I can’t let this beauty die.

It’s stupid. I pull back my arm and launch the dart, hitting the midnight blue wolf that’s charging away from me at full speed.

It only takes a second, the strength of the concoction working extremely fast, and the wolf collapses. A moment later, the wolf turns into her human form, and I can walk forward at a leisurely pace.

She’s going nowhere.

She’s completely at my mercy.

She’s naked, showing she didn’t focus when shifting, too busy running for her life. At least I get to reap the benefits.

She means nothing to me. Her name is not even memorable enough to recall.

But her body is sort of attractive, I suppose. My dick twitches, but I’ve long lost the ability to get an erection. Hell, I can’t even get a fucking semi at this point.

The girl is lying there, squinting and panting, and I can only imagine how much pain she’s in. I wish I brought the chloroform, but, instead, I wanted a painful way to subdue Atticus. You know, if I decided he deserved to be saved.

It’s a shame I’m using it on his lovely mate instead.

Her long, dark brown hair has bits of mud splattered in it, twigs clinging to it, which will be a bitch to get out. Sucks for her, I suppose.

She’s thin, very little meat on her bones, her tits are not even a handful.

Why the fuck aren’t her mates feeding her? They’re worth fucking billions, and they can’t spare a fucking steak for their mate?

They don’t deserve her. They’re lucky I took her. I’ll look after her. I’ll feed her.
