Chapter Six

Luna stumbled into the kitchen in Rafe’s T-shirt that fell to her knees. The scent of coffee and the sound of voices had lured her from the bed. She walked past Elise to the coffee maker. A smirk formed on her face as she caught Elise’s open mouth stare.

After pouring a cup of coffee, Luna leaned her back against the counter and cradled the cup. A moment later, Kasen walked in. He raked his gaze over her and chuckled as he got his own coffee. “He wanted to get his point across, didn’t he?”

“You should see Rafe,” Luna said, meeting Elise’s gaze.

Rafe appeared from the hallway without a shirt. He had bite marks on his neck, shoulders, and chest. His back was littered with claw marks.

Luna had her fair share of bites but nothing like what she left on Rafe.

Elise turned toward Rafe and froze. Kasen leaned against the counter about a foot from Luna. He was close enough to show he was still her friend but not close enough to infringe on the mating dance.

Walking past Elise, Rafe wedged himself between Luna and Kasen, making the Wilde wolf Alpha scoot over.

One by one, the rest of the group filed out of the rooms. Colt looked concerned when he saw Luna, but Kirk pulled him aside and explained the mating dance to him.

After breakfast, they formed their groups and headed out. Rafe, Luna, Tate, and Elise were the group that went to the mine. Kasen had suggested Tate be in her group, saying the Enforcer was good at hiding bodies if she needed that service. She wasn’t even going to ask if he was joking.

Rafe said there would be no use for hiding bodies but agreed Tate was the right choice for their group. Luna defaulted to Rafe’s direction on the mission because he was familiar with the area and had worked with the Wilde wolves before.

Standing at the entrance of the mine, Luna studied it, wondering just how safe the old abandoned place was. “We have to be careful not to create a cave-in.”

Rafe nodded and pulled out a flashlight from his backpack. “I agree. Watch your step.”

Luna, Tate, and Elise nodded and followed Rafe inside. They reached the center of the mine and start poking around at the rock, looking for signs of Moonstone.

Setting her backpack on the ground beside the back wall, Luna scanned the small open space. “The files Easton sent never said what the stone looked like.”

“It could be anything from the raw form of moonstone to polished. But it will have a low hum or vibration of power.” Rafe walked along the wall with his hand skimming the surface. “Also, look for a manmade hole or other disturbance in the rock.”

They paired off to search around. Luna and Rafe went down a path that led a little farther into the mine while Elise and Tate searched the small room-like space they were in.

After moving through the narrow tunnels that seemed to take about an hour—maybe it was only minutes—they came to another open space.
