Chapter 7: James

I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling as the human woman, Carrie, made cute little snoring sounds beside me.

For the first time in as long as I could remember I felt some approximation of peace. Who was she? And why did we seem to drive each other crazy with desire? No one had ever made me feel like that before. Not even Charlotte. This was how I imagined finding your true mate must feel, but that couldn’t be it. She wasn’t a shifter. She was something else entirely.

Not that I was complaining. She was… incredible. Her body was… incredible. Some wolves prefer a lean, athletic mate, a partner to hunt with. Not me. Call me old fashioned, but I liked my bitches with enough meat on their bones to survive the winter. Wait. I made a mental note never to use the “b” word in front of her. She wasn’t a wolf and as I’d discovered the hard way regular women weren’t too fond of it.

But yeah, I guess I was an old fashioned kind of guy, most alphas are. I was made to hunt, to provide for my mate, my pups, my pack. It was what I was born to do and I had no interest in a hunting partner. When I returned, I wanted to return to something a little more luxurious and womanly.

Since the fire I’d kind of shut down that side of my brain. I needed release now and then and I’d never had any trouble picking up willing partners for some mutually beneficial relief. But it was never like this. In the shower with her… and my… that had been something new.

“Jimmy?”

Joseph? I must have fallen asleep. I could hear the old packmaster’s voice in my head as clear as he was standing right next to me.

“Jimmy you don’t have much time. I had to do it this way. Do you understand?”

I understood. Joseph couldn’t let me kill Travis while he led the pack. It would shame him to let a traitor like me do his dirty work for him. He had to make an example of me, which is why I didn’t fight back. Travis on the other hand…

“He’ll kill you Joseph. He’ll kill you and then they’ll kill him and your pack.”

The old wolf nodded. He looked tired. As if all the hate had drained him, “I know Jimmy, but it’s my time. I’m ready to die. I’ll try and buy you some time, but you need to hurry.”

“I’m sorry Joseph. I’m sorry about Charlotte. If I could have…”

“I know Jimmy. I know you two weren’t fated, but you still loved her. It was just easier for me to blame you, to hate you.”

“I’ll find the people who did it. I’ll make them pay.”

“You know who did it Jimmy.”

The Daughters of Diana. A myth. Shifter folklore. A story that Joseph used to tell me and the other pups around the campfire.

“But why? And why now?”

“Your new bitch is the key.
