Chapter Ten

Celeste felt ice-cold terror running through her veins. How did these people even know that Jeffrey existed? And why did they want him?

“There is no boy,” Reynaldo growled.

Jeffrey was lying on the floor at Grant’s feet, covered with Grant’s jacket.

The man kicked the car door. “Don’t lie to me again or I’ll fill you full of silver, you sack of shit. We saw him get in the car. Just hand him over, and your secret stays secret. If you even make a move on us, we’ll give everyone proof that werewolves exist. And everyone will know it’s your pack’s fault. They’ll turn against you. Your company will go bankrupt.”

This man knew way too much about werewolves and about the Bronsons.

A horrifying thought occurred to Celeste. Was this Mandy’s doing? Had she betrayed them all? Who else could have done it?

“We’re burning daylight here. Hand him over or we start shooting,” the man barked at them.

The back door was flung open, and Jeffrey scrambled out. Celeste tried to hold on to him, but he was much too strong for her, wriggling out of her arms. “Don’t shoot them,” he said. “I’ll go with you.”

Celeste stifled a scream.

No, no, no…This could not be happening…

The man scooped him up as Grant snarled a curse and leaped out of the car. There were dozens of men surrounding them now, their guns pointed directly at Grant’s head.

“Smart kid,” the man sneered.

“Jeffrey, no!” Celeste cried. She leaped out of the car after him, tears running down her face. Suddenly half a dozen guns were pointed at her. She felt sick with rage and terror. These monsters. What were they going to do to Jeffrey?

“If you kill her, I won’t let you take me. I’ll make you kill me. I can do that,” Jeffrey said, and suddenly he was a wolf cub. He’d shifted so fast that Celeste hadn’t even seen it happen.

He sank his teeth into the arm of the man who was holding him, and shook his head viciously, ripping flesh. The man screamed in pain and shook his arm wildly, trying to dislodge him.

“Get him off me! Shoot him, shoot him!” the man screamed.

“He’ll kill us if we shoot him! He needs him alive!” one of the other men yelled.

He who? Who needed Jeffrey? And why?

“Take care of him for me,” Grant growled to Celeste, and the bones in his face shifted as his ears turned pointy.

Horror washed over Celeste. He was going to shift and attack these men and get himself killed, to give her and Jeffrey a chance to escape. She was overcome by mindless fear that fused her spine and turned her limbs to water. The shouts of the men echoed in her ears, jumbled and meaningless noise. She couldn’t watch Grant die. She couldn’t.

A shot cracked through the air, and the man holding Jeffrey collapsed in a heap. Jeffrey leaped through the air, landing in Celeste’s arms, and she ducked her head and scrambled back into the car. She could hear more gunshots, and screaming, and the snarl of wolves as she curled up on top of Jeffrey.
