Thirty-Three

“I have never been disloyal to my clan!”

Rachel ducked back into the hall at the sound of Magda’s voice. Magda was the last person she wanted to run into—especially smelling of William and wearing his clothes. Rachel had left the game room to steal one of William’s shirts from his bedroom. By a turn of bad luck, or at least an amusing consequence, her shirt had found its way into William’s brandy snifter while they had sex.

“The Duncanis chief has his reasons to be suspicious of you. You must admit your behavior regarding Rachel has been suspect.” William’s voice was calm compared to Magda’s.

“Of course I think it would be better with the American out of the way!” Magda returned. “She shows no respect. She’s wild. She is a Duncanis.”

“But to order her death?” William asked.

Rachel edged closer to the door and leaned in, though really with her hearing she didn’t need the advantage.

“You think I am a traitor?” Magda asked, her tone somewhere between outrage and hurt. “You think as the Duncanis chief does?”

“I don’t know what to think.”

“You know me.”

“Yes,” William agreed in irritation, “I do know you, Magda. That is part of the problem. I know you would do anything you thought was right for our clan. I know you hate anyone who isn’t Cononious, and secondarily anyone who is not English. I know you have been shoving English Cononious females in my face since the second of my accession to chief. You knew we were in America. You knew where in America. We told no one else about it. You saw the picture Douglas sent me of Rachel before I left. You knew we were interested in finding out if she was a suitable bridal candidate before I even went there. Who else had that information?”

Rachel stiffened. They tracked her down? Their meeting was on purpose? Planned? Douglas had already told her about the picture he’d sent, but somehow when William talked about it to Magda, it seemed so much colder and more deliberate.

William continued, “I didn’t want to believe it, but then after our return from the forest you came to my room acting not like yourself. There was something strange in your tone, Magda, just as there is something strange in your expression now.”

“You take the word of the Duncanis over your own?” Magda’s voice dropped.

“I take my own logic. Like it or not, Magda, I choose Rachel. Douglas chooses Rachel. There is nothing you can do to stop our upcoming wedding. She will be chieftess and if anything happens to her, I will make sure my next bride is a Duncanis from Australia with a well documented history from the prison colonies. I am sure the notorious mass-murdering shifter, Darius Drake, had children while banished there.”

Magda gasped in horror. “You wouldn’t! That wolf ran rampant over the civilized world. His children are outcasts! You would dare taint the royal bloodline?”

“I most definitely would. So decide, Magda, Rachel or a Drake?”

Rachel had heard stories of Darius Drake when she was little.
