“MOM, EMBER,” DEREK greeted us, dropping onto a stool in front of the counter as easily as if he came by every morning to shoot the breeze with his closest living relatives.

For my part, I was completely incapable of being so blasé...or even of remembering my less savory reasons for wanting to track my brother down. “Derek!” I shrieked, my voice rising to the register of an air-raid siren. “You’re safe!”

I pounced on him the way my wolf had once pounced upon a small pup about to tumble off a high porch railing. Pushing Derek back to his feet with the force of my arrival, arms clenched shut around his waist so tightly I might have cracked one of his ribs. Then I simply stood there and took in the younger male’s existence, unable to speak another word.

My brother smelled like moss and saw-mill lumber. Like sun crossing the forest floor after a brief spring rain. Within my chest, my wolf growled and hummed a confused cacophony of welcome, and I completely forgot that I was currently hunting Derek for the nefarious purpose of trading him for a teenager caught in a sadistic enforcer’s none-too-gentle grip. Instead, all I could think was: Sibling, brother, safe, home. Finally.

“Hey,” Derek answered, his breath ruffling the hair along the top of my head. He was taller than I’d expected, I now realized, my little brother in name alone. Somehow, I’d assumed Derek’s less advanced age would make him shorter than I was. But if anything he gave my mate a run for his money in the height department. And Sebastien was no pipsqueak.

Height, of course, was irrelevant. It was only one of dozens of revelations that flowed through me like water as we stood there for an endless moment, wolves communing silently beneath our skins.

And it was in that moment of siblinghood that the bond between us formed. It clicked into place instantly, as if we’d only needed to touch to create a tether that in other wolves might take months or years to grow strand by minuscule strand. One moment we were two beings standing side by side in the same circle of sunlight. The next moment we were inseparable members of the exact same pack.

“You okay?” Derek asked eventually, pressing me away from his lanky body in order to gaze upon me with creased brow. A sunbeam struck directly between us in the process, illuminating his nose and shoulder and my left hand. The
