Kelley’s emotions flipped between curiosity and fury. His mind had been racing since Alastair had called and ordered them to the security office to deal with the situation. His alpha wasn’t angry, but Kelley could hear the worry in his voice. Although they were supposed to be living in secret, some asshole had shown up asking for Rhapsody, which begged the question – how the hell had he found her?
His first thought had been to blame the wolves. They already knew that the alpha’s mate had blabbed about the zoo to Rhapsody’s aunt. Kelley wasn’t upset about that. In fact, the lack of secrecy from the wolves had brought his soulmate right into his arms, so he’d be forever grateful for that. But had whoever come for Rhapsody talked to the wolves? Had the wolves just told any shifter who asked where she was? He didn’t think the alpha was that big of an asshole, because who else but a jackass would tell a stranger where a mated female lived?
As they drew close to the security office, he saw Alastair standing at the door, his lips a tight line and his eyes dark with anger. Kelley could relate. Although he was trying to keep a calm demeanor, so he didn’t upset Rhapsody anymore than she already was, he was feeling positively murderous.
Alastair opened the door and let them in. One of the office doors was closed, and a discreet scent of the air told him that there was indeed a panther in the room. Caesar, the alpha lion, grimaced and joined Alastair.
“He won’t tell us anything except that he’s here to see you,” Caesar said with a low voice. “We would normally send someone like this on his way, but we need to know how he found out you’re here.”
Joss, the wolf alpha, snarled. “If that damn wolf pack where you used to live is telling everyone about us, then we need to silence them.”
Rhapsody shuddered next to Kelley, and he knew she was reacting to the menace in Joss’s tone. The male was all alpha, all the time.
Alastair said, “We’re right there with you, Rhapsody. Don’t be afraid.”
She swallowed audibly and her eyes shimmered with unshed tears. “I’m not afraid for myself, I’m afraid for everyone here. This is all my fault.”
Kelley pulled her closer, wanting to lend her his strength. “It’s not, I promise.”
“He’s right,” Joss said. “You’re not the one with a big mouth.”
Caesar cleared his throat. “You find out who he is, how he found you, and then tell him to hit the bricks. If he comes back, the alphas will deal with him.”
Kelley knew what that meant. It was a deadly sort of deal with him that they were talking about. When it came to the safety of their people, there wasn’t anything that they wouldn’t do to ensure that all remained protected within the walls of the zoo.
She nodded and inhaled deeply, her shoulders moving with the motion. “I’m ready,” she said.
Joss opened the door to the office.
