“Jesska.” He smiled. “A beautiful name.”
“Thank you, I think.” She bit her lip. “But I’m going to leave now, because you’re frightening me.”
He noticed she clasped something attached to a chain around her neck. “I apologize. I don’t mean to frighten you.”
He stepped forward and she didn’t retreat, so he reached out and touched the hand that was at her throat. He felt her sadness, and when she dropped her hand, he saw a ring around a chain.
“What the hell are you doing here?” a voice bellowed.
Jesska turned toward the angry voice with a gasp. Dalton Moore rushed toward them, and Kaspar scowled as the man stepped between him and his mate, facing her. “Jesska, are you all right? Did he hurt you?”
Jesska shook her head. “How do you know my name?” she whispered.
“I’m Dalton Moore. I’m a friend of Cameron’s.”
“Oh,” she squeaked. “I have to go.”
“Yes. Go,” Moore said.
Before she could move, rage filled Kaspar and he slammed Moore against the brick wall. Jesska screamed in fright.
“I have Red Fang on my hands, dumbass,” Moore said. “Let me go or your ass will be on the floor.”
Kaspar didn’t have a chance to respond as a security guard ran toward them. “Hey. What’s going on?”
Kaspar stepped back, noticing Jesska tugging on her necklace again. Moore diffused the situation quickly, using his FBI credentials to appease the security guard. Kaspar could see Jesska wanted to run, but for some reason, she didn’t. He stepped closer to her. She stepped aside and then turned on her heel and bolted out of the school so fast, Kaspar wondered if he’d have been able to stop her.
“Come on,” Moore demanded. “You need to leave.”
“What are you doing here?”
“Making sure you don’t do something stupid. Apparently, I’m too late.” Moore studied him and then scowled. “Damn it. Is she...?”
“Is she what?” Kaspar asked.
“Is she your mate?” he whispered.
Kaspar was blindsided.
Moore chuckled without humor. “You didn’t see that coming, huh?”
“How do you know?”
“You have a file an inch thick on me,” Moore pointed out. “You tell me.”
“I know you were FBI before working for Gunnach Pharmaceuticals.”
“And Kade’s mated to my sister.”
This time Kaspar swore.
“You cannot interfere,” Moore said. “You do this my way, or they will disappear again, including Jesska, and you will never be able to find them.”
Kaspar moved toward him again, angry that Moore didn’t appear concerned at all.
“Red Fang, buddy,” he said, and held up his hands. “Please, give me a reason.”
“Einn daginn mun ég drepa þig í svefni,” Kaspar said, seething. (One day I will kill you in your sleep.)
