Katlyn!I growled, slashing my way through her mind.

This was the way of wolves.

Pain didn’t matter.

Suffering didn’t matter.

All that mattered was the chase.

The present.

The goal of the here and now—and the instincts that guided us.

Instincts from the Goddess. That invisible spirit never faltered. Never failed.

We had the Goddess’s heart. There was no doubting ourselves now.

That instinct rang clear in the dark.

Bite.

Mate.

Claim.

Those sentiments were reserved for the Moon Alpha, Kane.

He wasn’t an Outcast to me.

He was the only one who properly worshipped me.

My body still hummed from his tongue.

My heart still pounded from his vow.

My soul howled in approval from the way he offered his life to me so freely.

Mmm, yes. He’s worthy.

I wanted him to come back and finish what he’d begun, but there was only one other thing I would permit my alpha to do when I was going into heat.

And that was to fight for my honor.

We felt him fighting the others.

Violence made my tongue tingle and my breath come in short pants.

Perhaps he would kill them just to keep me all to himself.

I would be disappointed if that happened.

My instinct told me that this was right.

I wanted to claim them all.

I didn’t have to mate them.

I would control them.
