Nicolas answered his cell phone."I've missed you, brother.""Thank you, Brandt. I'm sorry for your losses at the hands of the cats.""No one has suffered more than your clan. Franklin will be forever in my memories.""Franklin would like that." Nicolas smiled softly. Few knew of the vampire's sexual preference, but Brandt took it in stride years ago when he found out.There wasn't time for long condolences, so Brandt changed the subject. "My wolves followed them on foot, but lost them when they reached their vehicles. Several more of my pack picked them up again when they entered Arizona. They traveled across I-40 and are heading into New Mexico. I believe they've decided to avoid the Southwest Clan.""There will be no avoiding us.""I hoped you would say that.""Keep us informed and we'll try to head them off when they turn south.""Will do."Asia, Columbus's younger brother, rode in the vehicle with Nicolas and Esta. A wolf on loan from Columbus's pack joined them. By loan

Nicolas opened the bedroom door and held Zenya's hand, leading her down the stairs. The house held more than fifty wolves and all the she-cats from his pack. He grinned and looked at the hopeful eyes, all looking at his mate."How could we not know this?" Amy spoke into the hushed room.Vorlyk answered, "The South American cats may know."All eyes turned to Esta when she spoke, "They hate wolves more than humans. If they think we know, every she-cat life they control is in danger."Madayah agreed, "She's right."Zenya looked to Nicolas. "Our child will also be in danger."Nicolas squeezed her hand. "This just gives us more to fight for."Loud voices shouted in agreement. The wolves in the room would fight to their death to protect a child."We double the guards and continue preparing for war. If possible, we will rescue every female they hold," Marcus spoke out over the raised voices."We need to discuss this tomorrow. Zenya is ready to fall where she stands," Amy said.The r

A week later, they all sat at the dinner table finishing off their meal."I'm learning to throw a knife," Talya told Nicolas."Are you any good?""I will be.""How are you coming along, Sheeba?""We're using telepathy to zero in my aim. Vorlyk's helped healing a few times when I've been off."Vorlyk spoke, "Padding keeps it minimal.""I'm getting better. Talya and I make a good team." There was pride in her voice."I've been working with Amy and Marcus at night," Vorlyk surprised them all by saying.Everyone went quiet. Vampires did not do well together.He went on, "We know the cats outnumber us in vamps. We also know to some extent they manage to be in the company of other vampires. This leaves us at a disadvantage. Bottom line, if they can do it, so can we."His eyebrows arched. "Is it working?"Vorlyk gave a slight grin. "The first few days were rough, but we're adjusting. We don't plan on moving in together, but Marcus has hundreds of years of killing experience that I

Nicolas awoke with a start. Zenya's heart beat against his own. He rolled and disengaged from their sweaty, stuck-together bodies. It made him smile. Obviously exhausted, she didn't stir. Pulling on black sweats, he walked from the room, leaving the door slightly ajar. Passing the other rooms, he saw no one in them. He also heard no talking or sounds from the front rooms.Turning the corner of the hallway, he stopped. Cats and wolves lay on the floor in a pile. Each of them touched at least one other pack mate. He walked across the room and picked up his cell phone, located the camera function, and snapped a photo. He would never forget their first combined puppy and kitten pile. When his old pack hunted, they often stayed outdoors overnight and slept like this. These women completed his wolves and they were a vicious enemy. He gladly accepted them as his.A noise made him turn. Zenya peered over his shoulder. "Would you like to help me make pancakes? Madayah's not up yet." Her stoma

After dinner, Nicolas laid out his plan to search for she-cats.Zenya remained frozen in silence.Esta spoke first, "My job is to protect your mate. Nikka will go in my stead.""I won't make you go, but I believe my mate can protect herself with Nikka and McDonald by her side. I need you to talk to the women if we find any alive and convince them to come with us."Esta looked at Zenya, "I promised to keep you safe.""The women need you. I'm safe here." Annoyance at her mate clouded her words. Esta looked at Aster, "Are you going, wolf?""I plan to kill more cats than you."Esta accepted the challenge. "I'll go."For a wolf, not thought to be the brightest, Aster easily handled the difficult she-cat.Nicolas looked around the room, stopping to meet the eyes of each of his fighters. "We're going in fast. Getting out will be harder, but even then we'll have Samson waiting on day five. If we don't show, he leaves without us."Madayah spoke up, "You have a traitor. What if they
