Chapter Eighteen

“You were saying?” Cole said smugly when his kin had us surrounded. Most were unarmed, but some were pointing pistols and rifles at us.

“You heard me.” My anger was growing by the second and his arrogance wasn’t helping. “Kala is part of our pack. You have no claim to her.”

He drew himself up to his full height. “Your pack? I see a human, two wolves and whatever the hell he is.” He pointed at Flynn. “It is my right as a pure blood Rex to claim any female feline that I wish.”

“Even if the female already belongs to another pride?” Mark asked.

That threw Cole for a moment before he regained his poise. “I wouldn’t have been able to claim Kala if she already belonged to another Rex. The fact that I could call her to me proves that she wasn’t already bound by anyone.”

“Wolves don’t control their females like lions do,” our boss explained. “Let Lexi prove that she is Kala’s alpha. You’ll see that she has a prior claim on her.”

“No.” Cole shot that suggestion down immediately. “She is mine.”

My anger increased to a rage so intense that it made my hands shake. “Bring her to me. Now.” My voice had deepened to a commanding growl. The bouncer’s eyes glazed over and he obediently turned and trotted towards the stairs.

“Mason! Get back here!” Mason ignored his rex’s command and disappeared up the stairs. “You cannot do this!” Cole snarled at me. “The cougar is mine! I have claimed her and bedded her. She is my creature to do with as I will.”

My rage turned white hot and pain flared inside me. “If you say one more word I’ll end you right now,” I grated. Worried whispers came from the crowd.

“What’s happening to her?” one lion asked.

“She’s changing,” another replied in fright.

“That isn’t possible! The full moon is still three weeks away!”

Mark and Reece rushed over to me as my fingers lengthened into claws. Flynn stepped up and put his arms around me from behind, steadying me both physically and emotionally.

“Calm down,” Reece said in a soothing, yet commanding voice. He’d proven before that he could control me and he exerted his will over me now. “Control your anger.”

I tried, but when Kala walked down the stairs, naked and covered in still healing scratches and bite marks, my rage boiled over. I shrugged Reece and Flynn off and leaped at Cole. I punched him in the face and he went down like a sack of potatoes. His kin leaped to defend him and I tossed them away as easily as if they were children.

Agony coursed through me when my spine popped and my jaw lengthened. My howl echoed around the club and the lions fled, leaving their rex dazed on the ground before me. Dropping my gun, I fell to my hands and knees and waited for the rest of my body to transform. When it did, I was going to kill every last lion that I saw.

A shot rang out and a different kind of pain tore through my left thigh.
