“Ready?” Jonas prompted.
“Always,” Kazek replied, several guns strapped to his body. “Who wants to shadow me to shore?”
X-Clan wolves didn’t have teleportation or shadowing abilities, meaning one of us would have to take them to the island from here.
Kieran grabbed Kazek’s wrist, the two of them disappearing in a blink.
Lorcan looked at me and nodded toward Jonas. “I’ll take him. Meet me on the shoreline. Don’t go in alone.”
“Yes,Alpha,” I told him. But inside, butterflies fluttered around in my belly.
We’re doing this. We’re really doing this.
We are,Lorcan agreed, grabbing Jonas.Meet me on the shore. Now.
He disappeared with the words.
Cillian went to the cockpit for Sven. The jet was in a hover status, hidden from view. We’d have to shadow back up to it, but that wouldn’t be hard to do.
I left them to work out the details and shadowed to shore, just like Lorcan had demanded.
My flat boots touched the sand a few feet from where he stood. Jonas, Kazek, and Kieran had already disappeared.
Lorcan and I soon followed, darting into the overgrown greenery lining the beachy shore. I couldn’t remember the original name for this island. It was one of the Caribbean islands, though. White-sand beach. Palm trees. Lush greenery. Humid.Hot.
My nose twitched as I took in the familiar scents.This is definitely where Fare took me.
Do you think your wolf can track him?
I nodded.Yeah.
That was the plan. Because all of us suspected that Fare would sense my arrival as his mate. So the point was for me to go hunting with Lorcan while the others made themselves scarce. They were backup. I was the bait.
It should scare me, but I was too pissed off to feel fear.
My wolf was in charge right now, her furious energy forcing my legs to move as she led me by my nose.
I was still technically in control. However, I gave her free rein, similar to how I typically operated in animal form. It was a different way to exist, one I’d only ever done one other time—when I’d escaped Fare. But it made sense to try it again now.
I trusted her to keep me safe.
To protect my vampire half.
Tofight.
We moved deeper into the underbrush, the green leaves kissing my painted skin and marking me as one with the island. It would do very little to disguise my scent, something Lorcan worried would give me away before Fare could make his move.
We were on an island full of savage Alphas. One whiff of my Omega perfume would send them all running.
They wouldn’t care that I was mated.Twice. They’d want a piece of my flesh, their animalistic needs overriding basic human thought.
That was why they lived here.
They were too feral for their home sectors.
If they surrounded me, I’d have to shadow. Assuming I could.
Kyra.Lorcan paused, his nostrils flaring as he looked slowly to the left. I froze beside him, waiting to pick up on whatever he’d just scented.
