She’d gone into the cabin while Jericho and Duke dragged the body around the corner of the building. There was a blanket on the top bunk, and she pulled it down. By the time she got back outside, the shifter had changed back into human form, like she’d anticipated. She did everything possible to avoid looking at him. Despite knowing that they had no other choice but to kill him, it still filled her soul with incredible sadness, her eyes threatening to spill oceans of tears, if she didn’t block it out. At least for now. There would be enough time for mourning the loss of everything later.

Jericho and Duke stood for a moment, neither of them looking at her, heads down, breathing hard. There was always that slightly awkward moment after shifters went back into human form, before they got dressed. Being a leader of a motorcycle club, that had many shifter members, she was used to catching glimpses of naked bodies, as the guys shifted back, before they pulled on jeans, and shirts. It seemed like a natural part of the process, and she’d never really thought about it.

But with Duke, she could tell he had been embarrassed, and so was she. She looked down as Duke moved away, disappearing into the cabin to get dressed.

She thought about everything that had gone on between them, and how distant things had been over the years. They’d grown up together, and she’d thought they were close, as close as two kids could be who had different last names, and only had a mother to share, but not a father. For the first time, it hit her that Duke grew up with her father, not his own, and she thought how that might have made him feel apart, separate from the rest. He’d always been a loner, got to be more that way the older he got, and she wondered if that was the reason why, if he’d felt alone in his own family, forever feeling like the black sheep, the outsider. It made her sad in a way she couldn’t quite understand, like she’d forgotten to do something really important, or that something she was supposed to care for had died because of neglect. She loved her brother more than life itself, and the sorrow in her heart, mixed with relief, nearly toppled her over, and she struggled for a moment to find her footing, trying her best to keep focused, and not let the darkness shut down her mind for a much needed break from reality.

Then she looked at Jericho, and found herself wanting to laugh. With Jericho, well, she didn’t think he really noticed he was still buck naked, torn clothes in a pile at his feet. He radiated a confidence that she felt moving through the air, touching her like sunlight on her skin. Even covered with dust, and dirt, and leaves—and with horror, she saw blood flecked here, and there—the sheer presence of him calmed her down a little.
