compound with the same agenda. We have to be united and agree on how to handle things.
What s to iron out? Zach stopped moving, glaring at the Omega. I say we go in and kill them
all. Remove the problem and forget it ever existed. We don t have to live in fear anymore. We don t
have to lose the people we love.
There are women and children to consider.
You heard Mary. Zach looked ready to throw down. The women will back their men and they
teach their children to do the same. They ll try to kill us if we let them.
Not all of them. Consider the source of our information, Diskant snapped and reminded him,
Mary isnothing like her relatives. Likely some of the women stay in the compounds because they re
afraid they ll be hunted down and killed. As for the children& Diskant frowned, troubled at the
thought. The innocent deserve a chance.
And what if you have to separate a noncomplying mother from her child? Zach asked. Ever
think of that? It s kinder to kill them quickly with those they know than to let them suffer alone as
orphans.
Ava sat up, visibly infuriated at Zach. Diskant spoke before she could, a hard edge to his voice.
There are couples in several packs who d happily take them. Not everyone is fortunate enough to
have children. Trey didn t take it personally when Diskant glanced at him and Sadie. As a vampire
and werewolf, there was a chance they d never have a child. Maybe we can turn this situation
around, make it into something good. We can t condemn children for their name or for what their
families have done to us.
Why should we be so merciful? They didn t give Katie that courtesy.
Trey narrowed his eyes at the Beta. He had a right to be angry but he was crossing the line. If we
act as they did we ll be nothing more than hypocrites, Trey snarled. We don t kill innocent people,
Zach.
I know you re upset, Ava added, softening toward Zach, offering an olive branch, but this is
something the Alphas will have to consider. With everything I ve seen, I know we have time. There s
no need to rush. We re not Shepherds. We ll never be. Ending a life especially a woman s or
child s isn t something to be done lightly.
I know you want your due, Diskant growled, eyeing the Beta. You ll get it during the hunt.
Everyone will get the blood they ve waited so long for.
Zach bowed his head, eyes downcast. Where will we be housing our guest?
Anthony Shepherd has already taken been taken care of, Diskant said. He s no longer your
concern.
Trey waited for Zach to explode. Emory must ve felt the same way. He quietly moved away from
Mary, inching closer to Zach. Trey agreed with Diskant s decision. There was no guarantee Zach
wouldn t kill Anthony. One night, if his fury got the best of him, the Beta might slip away, find
Anthony and tear the man apart.
You moved him. Zach growled. You re keeping him from me.
It s for the best, Diskant replied, voice deep and menacing. You don t need to know where
he s being kept. Not right now. If the situation changes I ll tell you.
Trey felt Zach s wolf rise, the crazed beast ready to tear apart the room. Sadie stiffened, her entire
body drawn tight. Trey sensed her apprehension, knowing she d bolt from his lap to put Zach down if
she had to. Emory took another step closer to the Beta, ready to take the male down. Sometimes the
animal when pushed too far took over, even if a shifter didn t want it to.
Another surge of energy carried through the room.
Diskant.
He d used his ability as an Omega, calling on his wolf. As Trey expected, Ava merged her ability
with Diskant s. The tiny woman closed her eyes, using her mental power to subdue Zach s rage.
Sadie shivered as their united energy seared over everyone near the couple. Trey held her closer,
forcing his wolf to settle down when it felt the Omega s call. There was nothing quite like the feel of
the couple when they came together. He knew it all too well since they d used their connection to
calm his temper in the past.
Back off, Diskant ordered.
The wolves warred Beta versus Omega but it was a losing battle.
Zach fought, trying to maintain his connection with his wolf. For several seconds he growled,
hands in tight fists, his lips pulled back to reveal his elongated canines. Within seconds, however, the
man slumped and his shoulders sagged.
Trey almost felt sorry for the male.
He brought it on himself, Sadie told him, using their connection. He has to let go of his
anger. It s going to corrode him from the inside out if he doesn t.
Could you control yours? Trey queried, stroking her arm. If I died and you had one of the
people responsible in your grasp, could you let him go?
After a moment, she thought back, No way in hell.
Emory. Diskant s voice lost the authoritative edge, dropping an octave, becoming soft. Take
Zach outside. He needs some fresh air.
Emory looked at Mary, his golden eyes loving as he gazed at her.
She gave him a small smile and whispered, I ll wait for you in our room.
Emory grasped Zach arm s and led him from the room.
Mary studied Ava for a moment. You look exhausted. Why don t I tuck you in so you can rest for
a while?
I m okay, Ava replied but despite the reassurance, she sounded tired.
Go rest, Ava Mine. Diskant got off the couch and lifted her from the seat. Her feet hit the ground
and she started to argue. He placed a finger on her lips. It s time to relax and take care of our little
girl. He splayed his fingers over Ava s stomach and a wide grin spread across his face. Her kicks
are stronger every day. Let s keep it that way.
I think all our mates should rest, Trey said and repeated what Diskant had done. He rose from
the recliner, keeping Sadie in his arms. Then he carefully eased her down so she could put her feet on
the floor. Her eyes met his, her irises so blue they appeared almost black. Why don t you take a nice
hot bath? We only have a few things to talk about. I ll be right behind you.
His female usually feisty didn t argue. A bath sounds like heaven, actually.
Then hop to it. He spun her around to face the other women and gave her a soft swat on the ass.
I ll see you soon.
His eyes remained on her until she vanished with the other women around the corner. Knowing
she needed the break, he waited until he could no longer hear footsteps and looked at Diskant.
Where did you decide to send the Shepherd?
