Chapter Sixteen

Isaac strode up the sidewalk to Dante’s door. His stomach tightened. He knew this couldn’t be good.

He’d looked forward to spending the day with Naomi and Neil. The first full one after they brought her back. Unfortunately, he’d received the call come to Dante’s house alone. The urge to growl at the beta had been strong, but he’d resisted it. He didn’t want to fight with Dante when he might be able to hurry back to Naomi.

He rang the bell and waited. Cael opened the door and stepped back to allow Isaac inside. Isaac nodded and entered the house.

“Go on into the living room. I’ll bring you a beer.” Cael gestured to the door to that room.

Isaac frowned. Cael usually asked if he needed something to drink. He didn’t automatically get it.

Isaac strolled into the living room, thinking about Cael’s behavior, and stopped when he saw Cim Sinclair there. He hadn’t realized the Cim would be here. Now he knew something was wrong.

“Isaac, come sit down. We need to talk.” The Cim gestured to a chair across from him.

Isaac hadn’t done anything wrong. Dread speared through him as his mind whirled with possibilities. His muscles tensed. What the hell was this about?

Isaac sat in the chair and leaned forward. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing’s wrong. We need to talk with you about Naomi.” Cael came back into the room and handed Isaac a beer.

“What about Naomi?” Isaac narrowed his eyes on the other man. Naomi was back with them and no one would take her away.

“More people are encountering Gobel as well as a few Appari. The Gobel we can handle as we have before, but the Appari…they’re a different matter. Someone always gets hurt usually fairly badly when we take them down. Sometimes, they’re drained and the essence taken.” The Cim’s hand clenched.

“No.” Isaac shook his head. “You can’t ask me to risk her.”

“We don’t know who’s behind these attacks. Not the Gobel or the Appari. Someone is sending those Appari to this area, if not after us in general.” Dante narrowed his eyes. “We don’t know what they’re trying to do. And they’ll keep coming until we stop them.”

“Isaac, she can take the Appari down far easier than we can and reclaim the souls. That’s something we can’t do.” Cim Sin leaned forward and clasped his hands together. “Sometime soon, I’ll be in the exact same position as you. Callista is Branal and she’ll be out there like Naomi when there’s danger.”

“Fucking hell, you know she didn’t train like that. You saw what happened when the Appari attacked us.” Isaac shook his head.

“You’ll need to train her Isaac. When she’s battling, she won’t be alone. Our men will have your back.” Dante settled on the couch.

Isaac cursed silently and clenched his fists. They had a point. He knew it. He hated it and the thought of what she’d face.

“Fuck. I don’t know how I’ll stand back and watch as she faces those things.” He wanted to punch something.

“You’ll do it because it’s for the best of the community.
