‘That was a Goddess Oath.’ Conric growled. ‘We have an avowed wolf connected to us.’
I closed my eyes and sank into myself to speak with Conric more privately.
[Ford]Madison held onto the man who’d called himself my cousin as everyone walked. I wanted to go pull her away from him. But Bethany told me she probably found comfort in his scent. I understood. Since he was my cousin, he’d smell a bit like me.The tall man who’d been on the bed was being carried on the back my other avowed wolf, Bryant, and Celia was being carried by the man who’d been holding her hand earlier. Th
[Madison]I finally got the fucking incubi to leave us alone. They were smug as hell and said they were there to make sure we understood, we could be found easily if we ran. I was livid.The Vasili ordered them to track down my group and threaten us. I knew I couldn’t rescind the order or he would know I was stronger than he was. So I told them to go suck their own tails. Then threatened to make it an order if they didn’t leave.
[Ford]When I went back to my body, I found that my friends had managed to lay me out on the couch. I appreciated it. Moran was sitting next to me, on the coffee table. Rao and Val were pacing back and forth behind the chairs. I couldn’t see Chris or Tony.“He’s back!” Moran shouted.&nbs

I closed my eyes as I felt a wave of dizziness overcome me. A vision was forcing itse
[Madison]Will patted my shoulder as I sat on the bed. I couldn’t believe I hurt Winston. I should have thought of what it would mean to have him in my wings all night. Bears ran hotter than wolves. I didn’t realize it got worse as they slept. If not for the headache that woke me, I might not have been able to cool him down.I was supposed to be a better option than the camps, and here I was endangering them. Val wo
[Madison]Anders went down the hall after I turned my back on him. That hadn’t gone very smoothly, but I learned Drayce was absolutelynotthe one who ordered the fires. He was too soft to be cool with killing kids.It gave me an opening, too. He’d be more open to what I was saying once he felt like I really saw him and wanted to he
[3rd person]Winston was still processing his vision when Madison came into the room. Annie and Will had gone to the bathroom to shower and Bryant was staring out the window, wishing he was elsewhere. The bathroom was not soundproof and they all could hear Will and Annie going at it in the spray of the water.“Go on out to the kitchen. Breakfast is ready.” She told them.
