actual murder are Mebis and Laila. They’re the ones we know the least about.”

“They’re werejackals,” Kess offered. “Bomani told me Sek invited Mebis to Miami for a

business meeting. He didn’t know any more than that. Maybe an alliance or something. I’m not exactly sure where they fit in.”

“Anybody know anything about werejackals?” Cormac asked. When nobody answered, he

said, “Then we need to call the pack. I guarantee my dad and Griff can dig up something on them.”

“Sek’s library. And his office. There may be something in either of those that can tell us what is going on,” Kess added.

“If Bomani hasn’t cleaned them out,” Finn warned.

“I highly doubt Bomani had anything to do with this. Anything that throws the clan into

upheaval is not something he’d want. It makes us too vulnerable. He wanted me to come back and take over from Sek without anybody being killed. Why would he make that offer and then do all of this?” Again doubt crept into her voice.

“Maybe you were taking too long,” Finn speculated.

Mac nodded, backing him up. “Yeah, babe. He could have gotten tired of waiting. Sek’s

death was bound to bring you home. At least for a little while.”

Kess stared at them, chewing on her lower lip. It was clear she didn't want to believe them about Bomani possibly masterminding the whole thing, but at least she wasn't dismissing it. She joined Cormac at the window. "Fine, so we don't rule out Bomani either." She gave each of them a measured look. "I should be the one to look through Sek's office--it will look like I'm planning to take over the clan and maybe relax Bomani if he is the one pulling the strings."

"I’ll call my dad—see what he knows about werejackals. I’ll check Sek’s library too.”

“What about me?” Finn asked. He was glad that Mac had taken the research. He wasn’t

interested or particularly good at things like that. Just ask his father.

“You can shadow Mebis and Laila,” Mac said, a slow grin spreading across his face.

Finn returned it. Trust his cousin to put him someplace where his talent with women would

do the most good.

“Just keep an eye on them,” Kess warned. “You don’t need to get all covert ops about it.”

But the look Cormac gave him said he should do just that if Mebis and Laila got funny.

Chapter Eighteen

Laila crossed the grass, a towel draped over her shoulder. A sliver of the moon hung

overhead, but the heat was still oppressive. This was high summer in the tropics where even darkness brought little relief. Rather than sit inside her cottage and brood, or stare at Mebis in silence, she decided that a swim was in order. Might as well do something to burn off the excess energy that sitting around all day being questioned caused.

And she was a more than a little pissed at her brother. The shade he'd had he dye her hair was the same shade as Kess'. As soon as she saw Kess, Laila knew what Mebis had been going for.
