Chapter Five

‡

After the council and their entourages departed, the rest gathered in the dining room with Navarro remaining silent.

Again, Calum felt Ginnie’s hand on his arm. A calming influence inside a room charged with anger and fear. His mind still reeled over the fact that a creature such as Darcy Albermarle existed. An abomination, the old master had labeled her. According to his own clan’s lore, this claim was true. If she’d been human then turned into a wolf, already she bore a strike, because rogue wolves were dangerous, rarely containing their inner beasts. But turned again, by a vampire? That predicament was unheard of.

Navarro cleared his throat. “You all have questions. I’ll address them. But please—sit.” He indicated the empty chairs around the table.

Ginnie pulled on his sleeve and led him to a spot opposite Quentin and Darcy, with the width of the table separating them.

Navarro drew a deep breath. “This situation is all very complicated. It is true, I ordered Darcy’s death.” His gaze went to the pale woman who sat forward on her seat, her tense body ready to pounce from her seat.

Quentin reached out and covered her hand with his. Darcy tightened her fingers into a fist, but Quentin simply smoothed his hand over the top of hers until she relaxed her fingers, and then he weaved his between hers. He turned to the group. “I know the rules. The risks. Darcy was human and pregnant with a human child. Our compound in Florida was overrun by wolves. Rogues. They attacked her and took her baby…”

Calum’s stomach dropped. The thought of wolves savaging a pregnant human woman… As abhorrent as that thought was, he knew his pack would be a problem.
