“It’s okay.” Seung lifted her chin. “Mr. Kelli and I are just establishing our boundaries.”

“Yeah, and Luca is a line you don’t cross.”

“Then I guess you better tell him, or I will.”

The growl that boiled from Nox’s chest shook the air.

Seung held her ground. “Quit fighting it.”

“And what? Just let it…” Nox snapped his mouth shut.

“Just let it what?” Luca tossed a look back and forth between them. “What? Tell me.”

Seung raised an eyebrow.

“Don’t,” Nox said.

Seung regarded Nox with a bored expression. “It wants to hunt you, Luca.”

Nox shook his head.

“It wants to hunt you, catch you—”

“Shut up.” Nox stepped back.

“Hold you down, bite, tear your flesh—”

“I said shut the fuck up.” Nox’s command echoed across the open space.

Luca’s heart stuttered, but it wasn’t in fear.

To be chased. To be caught.

Nox looked at him like he’d spoken aloud. “No.”

“I dream of you chasing me.”

Nox recoiled. “No… never. I’d die before I let it….”

“You promised me you’d at least try before giving up.”

“I can’t… not that… not…” Nox fled in the direction of the woods.

Luca dropped his shoulders.

Seung’s wolf emerged from her shadow. The creature made a circle around Luca then sat.

“He needs to hunt you, Luca.”

“He obviously disagrees.”

“You’re the Alpha.”

“I thought I was a Cana?”

“The Cana is the Alpha of Alphas.” She smirked. “And being an Alpha means you’re responsible for the people who belong to you.” She nodded in the direction Nox ran. “And whether Nash wants to admit it or not, that Anubis belongs to you. Itchoseto belong to you.”

The stretch of green field rippled with the wind.
