Despite holding his mate in his arms and using some of Gus’ energy for the trip, after all that, Maddox was exhausted by the time he finally smelled unfamiliar territory.

He smelled other wolves here. They'd marked the place and everything. This place was theirs, and if Gus was wrong about this, Maddox would be in major shit.

Packs tended to not appreciate it when a wolf who did not belong to their group just waltzed into their territory.

Especially a packless wolf who had little to no control of his wilder side, even with a wolf soul in his arms.

“This is the place. We made it,” Gus said, smiling even as he sounded utterly exhausted.

Maddox couldn't blame him. The energy he'd tapped from his mate would, of course, take its toll after all they'd been through.

“You're sure you will be safe here? These people won't try to take you, will they?”

He didn't like these smells. These were new people he didn't trust, and knowing so many unamused males would be around his mate made the wolf inside his head nervous.

Gus’ attempt at reassuring him didn't go off as planned either.

“They're good. Pretty sure they're fine. I don't know the people who live here that well, if I'm honest.”

Maddox felt the tiny muscle beneath his eye twitch. “You don't even know them?”

Gus smiled. It appeared to be a nervous smile. “Well, they did save me when the hunters took me. They let me stay with them rent-free for a while. These guys are all right.”

He spoke with more confidence this time, but it was too late. The wolf inside Maxwell’s head was still growling at him, and he struggled to keep it back.

“Are you all right?”

Maddox clenched his jaw. “I thought holding you in my arms would make it easier for me to hold back the anger of my wolf. But knowing you don't know these people that well makes it worse. I don't want to leave you alone with these people if there is risk, and the smell of you, touching you, makes this feeling worse.”

“Oh, well, that's fine because I won't be alone. You're going to be there anyway, so it'll be fine so long as you can see no one is hurting me, right?”

“Right.”

Maybe he said it in a strange way because Gus was suddenly looking at him with suspicion in his eyes.

“You are going to stick around, right?”

If Maddox looked his mate in the eye, it would be obvious he was lying.

So he didn't look Gus in the eye.

“Of course. I am your mate and protector, after all.”

“Uh-huh.”

At least Gus dropped it. That was the most important part as far as Maddox was concerned because then the smells of other males were getting closer, and a voice called out to them.

“You're on the wrong land, pal.”

Maddox tensed.

Gus looked relieved.

“Hey, Collin!”

Two males appeared from behind the trees and shrubs.

Maddox didn't like that. They had come closer than he would have thought anyone would be able to get to him without his notice.
