Chapter Fifteen

Aubrey had a secret. She’d been out hunting wolves with her sister while Jay had been entertaining himself with her family.

She’d left him twice, claiming that she needed some sister time, which wasn’t a total lie. She and Corra had bonded over blood. They’d slayed seven in total. She ran her fingers over the new additions to her fang collection and smiled. They’d been feral for sure, oozing a nastiness that made her heart ramp up even now.

She wanted to hunt again. Soon. It pulsed through her with a steady beat.

Her sister had been fully supportive. “You’re a wolf slayer, Bree, that’s what you were meant to be.”

“But I’m mated to a wolf.” And she felt guilty at the idea of wanting to kill the very thing that Jay was.

“From what I’ve seen, your mate isn’t anything like these beasts. He isn’t feral, he isn’t evil. You can feel it, right? You know what I’m talking about.”

And yes, Aubrey had known exactly what she meant. She didn’t want to harm her mate. She wanted him at her side fighting with her to take down the beasts. Corra had explained that a Huntress’s instinct was to protect the human race and would only feel that motivation to kill if there was a threat. Jay was no threat—not to her or to anyone else. Well, except maybe a bunny or two. He might have been a little tough on the outside, personality wise, but he was no murderer. And he wasn’t evil.

But Mayhem’s idea to ignite the beasts by speaking with their wolves had Aubrey nervous as all hell. She gulped back that fear, doing what she always did—push it down, lock it up, focus on the reality. Whatever happened, she would take care of it. She closed the lid on her secret stash of trophies, pushed it into her drawer under a messy pile of socks.

“You ready for this?” Jay was at the door of the bedroom, looking a little green. “Mayhem wants us downstairs for instructions now.”

Aubrey nodded as she glanced out the window. The sun was due to rise in thirty minutes. She wondered how wise it was to attempt this plan during wolf time. From her experience, the animal wasn’t too interested in civilized or rational discussion.

“Are we doing this in a big group?” Another prospect that wasn’t appealing. It seemed like this would be better in a private setting.

“I think so.” Jay shrugged. “He said that the spell is more powerful if we’re all together.”

“Wait a minute…like this is a group discussion, the other Huntresses included?” Aubrey winced. “It’s a security risk, don’t you think?”

“Let’s go talk to Mayhem. Find out what’s what.” Jay motioned for her hand, something he rarely did.

She smiled, realizing just how freaked out he was about the brain invasion. She walked over and wrapped her arms around him, giving him a hug, not knowing how he’d take it. Sometimes he froze up, but this time he embraced her back, kissing the top of her head as a bonus.
