Kass leaned over the bar and placed a whiskey on the napkin, winking at the customer before pulling away. Her movements confident and her smile never wavering; she felt at peace in her own bar tonight. After making the deal with Lucius her panther remained calm as Kass served the customers around her. A woman walked in and made her way to the bar. The black hair and yellow flashing eyes caused Kass to freeze. “Sarah.”

“Hey baby girl.” She smiled, her canines just a little more pointed.

So many questions flooded through Kass’ mind, but only one came out. “How’d you find me?”

“A little birdie told me that you’ve been working here under a vampire.” She leaned forward. “Cosmo please.”

Kass turned to make the drink and delivered it to her sister. “Great, didn’t know there were such little nosy birdies that knew I worked here. When did you shift? Seems you’ve spent a lot of time in your new form.”

“Just after you left us.” Her eyes flickered down and then back to Kass. “Dad’s doing, you know, control training.”

Kass knew all too well. She took a deep breath. “So you’re still living with them.”

“He wishes you’d come home, Kass, he’s changed. He understands that he was wrong.” Sarah folded her hands and put her chin on them. “He understands that you’re the most powerful female the clan has ever had.”

Shaking her head, she tried to calm the fear crawling through her. Her beast paced below the surface and the familiar pain started in her chest. She closed her eyes and focused on Jax. How she felt when he calmed her beast helped the panther retreat. With a deep breath she opened her eyes. “No. I work under Lucius now and I’m protected by him.”

“Heard you kill for him.” Sarah narrowed her eyes. “That you’ve lost all your control.”

“Not true.” She looked up as she heard the door, but didn’t see anyone. “Are the others with you?”

Sarah shook her head and slid into a seat. “They don’t know that I came. I wanted to talk to you alone.”

Kass saw the subtle hitch in Sarah’s breathing and the small dilation in her eyes that betrayed her lie. “But they know where I am.” Kass made it a statement.

Sarah met Kass’ eyes. “Of course. We’ve known for a few years.”

“Impossible.”

“You think so little sister?” She sipped her drink and leaned back on her stool. “Why don’t you come home Kass, I’ve told you that things have changed.”

Kass snorted. “You think I would believe that, after years of being force taught control. Just so they could try to kill me by starvation, fights, and whatever the hell else they threw at me?”

“I thought you had been lying about all that, now I know, now I can protect you.” Sarah begged. “Don’t leave me there alone.”

Kass searched Sarah’s yellow eyes for something, anything that would tell Kass she spoke the truth. Tears at the corner of her eyes made Kass sigh. “I’m bound here. I can’t.”

“So much for family, dad always said you cared more for yourself.
