CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Lucian watched as Maeve threw her head back and her whole figure trembled. She wasn’t cold; even from where he was standing Lucian could feel the heat pumping off her body and see the rosy flush of her skin. She was going to shift, he realised. Without any knowledge of how and without any thought for herself, Maeve was going to shift into her wolf. He knew she was doing it to save Bishop’s life, and he was grateful, but he was also fucking worried. One glance at Bishop and he knew his friend was beyond worried and breaking ground on furious. Eyeing Gabe to gauge his reaction, he saw that the younger man was transfixed – Lucian couldn’t blame him. When Maeve exposed her neck like that, he just about wanted to jump her bones, but seeing the power swell in her as she embraced her nature, well that was enough to leave him standing stock-still and a little dumbstruck. She was the most wondrous creature he’d ever seen and he was about to say so, when Bishop, despite his pain, surged to his feet.

“Maeve. Enough,” Bishop snapped. He advanced a step before he was hit by a surge of power.

Lucian too was hit by a concussive blast that had him wavering on his feet and left a ringing in his ears. “What the –”

“Maeve?”

Luci heard another voice but it sounded far away. In fact, everything sounded as though he were underwater. It took a moment for him to understand that the voice belonged to Gabe. He blinked and saw that his human friend was likewise rubbing his temple as though it ached and he was staring at the centre of the living room with a wondrous look on his face. Finding his equilibrium, Lucian contemplated the space where Maeve and Bishop had been standing just moments ago … and almost fell over. Right before him was Bishop in wolf form, his bronze coat gleaming, his powerful shoulders bunching as he paced in a circle. Even in wolf-form, Lucian could see the annoyance – and surprise – in Bishop’s eyes as he surveyed Maeve. Holy shit.

“Holy shit.” Unknowing, Gabe echoed Lucian’s own, not so eloquent thoughts, and looked to the vampire for some kind of confirmation that what he was seeing was real. “Is this what a hybrid is supposed to look like when they shift?” he asked, sluggishly.

Lucian opened his mouth. Closed it. Tried to formulate an answer. “Up until now, I guess no-one knew what they would look like.” And that much was true. As far as he knew, no hybrid experiment had ever survived long enough to transform. “I bet those scientists weren’t expecting this …” Lucian absorbed the sight in front of him, comparing Maeve’s wolf to Bishop’s; whereas Bishop’s wolf was large – the size of a bear and strongly muscled – Maeve was leaner. Both had powerful jaws, and canine’s, which when bared, were as sharp as any blade. What surprised him, and obviously Gabe too, were the differences in their colouring.
