Once indoors, we head downstairs and quickly reach the communal bathroom. Inside are two female Betas in the steaming water. They bow their heads at my arrival and continue chatting. I guide Meira to the showers at the back of the room and ensure that the room is empty first.
“I’ll stay guard out here. There are fresh towels in there. I’ll get someone to bring you some clothes too.”
She steps toward me and has a look on her face like she’s about to ask me something. I might be misreading the signals, but the words spill from my lips. “You want me to join you?”
A half-chuckle is her response as she strolls inside and vanishes into a shower cubicle.
I glance her way and scratch my head. Is that a yes?

“Ander,” I answer the call as I sit in my leather chair at my desk.
The X-Clan Alpha doesn’t greet me but is walking around as he talks on the video comm. Something’s wrong, and the tension in my stomach hardens.
“It’s been brought to my attention that your Second and Caspian have taken twelve vials of my serum to create X-Clan Wolves,” Ander finally says, surprisingly calm.
A chill shudders through me. “I’m going to fucking kill them!” I blurt out, regretting losing control so easily. I rein myself in and brace myself. Their actions punch me in my gut. I am going to murder Mad. I never should have trusted him but demanded he return home the moment they made the delivery.
Thoughts rip over my mind about what Mad wants with the serum. Ander’s team uses the serum to create female X-Clan Wolves out of the Ash females I send them. This allows them to mate with their Omegas.
Shifting in my seat uncomfortably, I answer, “Ander, I know nothing about this, I swear on my life this was not coordinated under my leadership.” A growl rumbles in my chest, my hands fisting at my side. “What Mad and Caspian have done has been of their own volition. I would never jeopardize our relationship this way.”
His golden eyes pierce into me, and I square my shoulders.
“What benefit do I gain from stealing from you?” I point out, but I know the answer to why Mad stole the technology as soon as the question leaves my lips. Once Ash Wolf Omegas are given the X-Clan serum, they also become immune to the infected.
Sonofabitch!Mad took the serum to find an antidote against the undead. Why the fuck didn’t he tell me first before pulling this stunt?
“I don’t want to put a strain on our trading,” Ander states. “And I do believe you weren’t aware of their actions.”
“I will personally deal with this issue quickly and return the serum to you. You have my word. I’m guessing the pair have already left your compound?”
My skin burns with fury.
He nods, and we continue talking about the severity of this situation and how to better secure our trading in the future. On the inside, I’m seething and ready to explode. Once I get a hold of those two, they will be lucky to breathe another day.
