A leaf crunching draws my attention behind me, and I jerk my head up, my hands fisted, ready to lunge, Lucien doing the same.

Bardhyl bursts out of the shadows, and I stand to meet him as he speaks. “Seven males. Two are Alphas, others are Betas. And they’re coming this way.”

“Good. We spread out and wait, then we jump. Go for the Alphas first.” I flick my hands at my men to show them the best spots to wait before we attack.

The wind direction is in our favor, and I want this over with fast.

I crouch back down next to Meira. “Stay here. I’ll be close. Anyone comes near you, you scream.”

She nods quickly and her cheeks pale. I don’t blame her for being afraid. I’m so damn tired of these complications preventing us from getting home.

I kiss her on the brow and jolt to my feet, ready, leaving her kneeled down.

It’s barely a split second that passes when a guttural growl erupts from behind me.

Blood drains from my face, and I whip around to find a huge timber wolf shifter standing over my startled Meira, his teeth bare as a growl rolls through his chest, ears pressed flat to his head. Sonofabitch… He has every intention of taking Meira.
