“She knows.” Dane growls
“What about the other packs?” Blondie asks. “We know Moonshine had a leader.”
“No packs have a true leader unless they are Wolves. They choose someone, if they don’t like it, they kill them and replace. Isn’t that what Moonshine did to Neah’s parents?”
“It is.”
“Then this will be different.”
“Thought you don’t believe in Alphas?” Blondie tuts
“I don’t, but I believe in power.”
Dane frowns at my words but doesn’t speak and focusses his gaze on the direction of the packs main entrance. They all seemed to be expecting more. Believing that people will jump at the chance to have a leader.
“Incoming.” Dane mutters as Mallory strides up the drive with two new people. A Lycan and a Wolf, hand in hand with one another. The Lycan has a fresh mark on her neck and her hand is gripped a little too tightly around the guys. There is no darkness to her soul, but there is fear.
Mallory stops just in front of us and I watch the girls fingers grow impossibly tighter around the guys hand or so I thought. Looking closer, I see that he is holding on to her. His knuckles are white, and the skin on her hand is sunken from the pressure.
“This is Madison and Enzo.” Mallory smiles. “Madison is a Lycan mated to a Wolf.” I knew she was saying it for my benefit as she smiles smugly at
me.
“Maddie.” The girl whispers her chestnut eyes briefly settle on me and she sort of bows, making her red waves fall over her face..
The movement is subtle, but enough for me to see that Enzo is the one forcing her into a bow. She gulps, but doesn’t make another sound as she slowly straightens. She had probably convinced him to come here because of Neah’s instructions. But really she was using it as a way to ask for help.
“Maddie.” Dane steps forward and I
knew from his tone that he had seen the same things I had. Maybe it reminded him of how he met Neah. “Mallory will take you through to meet Neah. Enzo, you will stay with us.”
“If it’s all the same, Alpha Dane, I would like to meet the Lycan Alpha that dragged me and my mate from our holiday.”
“You will.” Dane steps forward. “Meetings are done individually so everyone can be verified.”
“There are other Lycans here?” His eyes flicker between us.
Damien steps forward and gestures to himself. “Yes.”
“I would still prefer to attend the meeting with Madison. I want to know what this Alpha wants with And she wants me by her side.”

Enzo glares at Maddie until she whispers that she was afraid to be alone with a stranger.
“Nothing will happen to her.” I smile at him though I had ideas for what is about to happen to him.
“Can you guarantee that?” He cocks his head to one side and stares at Dane.
“I can guarantee nothing will happen to her.” Dane practically states the same as me. He knew what was coming.
Enzo frown’s but let’s go of the pretty redhead. Two minutes.” He mutters to Maddie and pulls her in, planting his lips on the corner of hers Her soul pulsates with fear. S
“Mallory.” Dane gives her a nod. Mallory smiles and links arms with Maddie, encouraging her to go into the house.
Enzo’s brain ruptures out the back of his skull just as the door closes behind the women.
