RICHTER

I hadn’t realized how grating it would be to be away from her for this long. It was all I could do to keep from fidgeting.

“I feel it too.” Core said from beside me. “They say it gets better with time.”

Distracting as it is… I’m not sure I want that.

Core smiles. “She’s singing. I hadn’t realized it would feel different, but it does.”

“Is our meeting boring you, gentlemen?” Drift asked.

Trench chuckled from behind me. “They’re newly-mated, boss. We can’t count on them for anything right now.”

Snickers echoed through the room.

Drift silenced them with a sharp whistle. “We all know that’s no excuse. Now, if it was you, Trench, I’d be worried.”

More snickers.

It was difficult to pay attention. Something was upsetting Laurel. I hoped it was nothing more than another call from her mother.

When it was my turn to give my report, I was as brief as I could be.

Drift wasn’t happy to hear I’d had two incursions in as many days.

“I think we all know it’s because of Laurel.” Clearing my throat, I glanced at the others. “Core and I are the first to take a mate, and he has also had to deal with one.”

No murmurs met that theory. We all knew the monsters hunted women. Drift motioned for me to sit down. I didn’t want to hear what he had to say next. Didn’t want the horrific thought given words. “We all know how dangerous the monsters will become when your mates fall pregnant…” He shot us both hard looks. “If they aren’t already.”

The ugly war of emotions that thought shot through me wasn’t one I wanted to experience. Now. Or ever again.

The reminder had me ready to bolt home.

It brought to the forefront of my mind Laurel’s request.

The idea of her, alone and cold in the wastes of the tundra.

“Stop.” Core knocked my shoulder with his own. “If you dwell on it, all you’re going to do is make her more anxious until you get home.”

He was right and I knew it.

Knew that there was no point in causing her to stress.

I’d feel it if something was wrong. And until then, dwelling wasn’t going to help anyone.
