The infernal howling interrupted Sasha's conversation with his liquor supplier. His first instinct was to tell Dustin to shut the hell up until he was off the phone, but then it struck him. Dustin was howling.

"I've got to go." Sasha slammed down the phone and ran. Dustin was a shifter, not a dog. If he howled, there was a damned good reason, and he'd left the other man in charge of Randy.

The crowd in the hall brought him to a stop.

"Clear the way, what happened?"

Tian and Lewis kneeled beside Dustin, hovering over the wolf.

"I sent for the doctor, but we're afraid to move him," Tian said, watching the shifter.

Sasha glared at the people blocking the hall. "Everyone go back to what you were doing. We'll find out what's going on."

He recognized the knife. "Why would Rael stab Dustin?"

"I don't know, but I'm going to rip out his throat," Lewis growled. His eyes glowed with a feral light that didn't bode well for the fae's future health.

"Not Rael. Randy."

At Dustin's voice in his head, Sasha looked around. "Where is Randy?"

"Randy stabbed you?" Tian blurted out.

"Don't be an idiot." Sasha glared at his friend. "Randy wouldn't hurt a fly."

His sunshine had a gentle spirit, a bit too gentle for a vampire mate, but Sasha would cut his own throat before he admitted it to his lover.

Dr. Chance arrived, breaking into his musing.

"Hey now, what happened here?"

"Obviously he was stabbed!" Lewis's voice bordered on hysterical. Sasha had never seen the man this out of control.

"Settle down, shifter. I'll take care of your mate. The key is to pull out the blade before he starts healing around it." He examined the wound. "On the plus side, it doesn't look like anything major was punctured. Hold him still."

Tian and Lewis grabbed onto Dustin as the doctor yanked out the blade.

A deafening howl echoed down the hall.

"It's all right, babe; I've got you," Lewis crooned to the whimpering wolf.

"I could bandage this better if he shifted. I don't want to tape anything over his fur."

Lewis slid Dustin's head onto his thigh. "It's hard to have control when we're injured. Focus, mate. Look at me."

The wolf's head turned towards the larger man.

"Shift!"

Sasha heard the note of command in Lewis's voice and wondered why the man remained a beta when he had such strong alpha qualities.

Fur vanished into flesh, and a naked man lay in the hall with a jagged wound in his chest. Dustin panted from the exertion of the change and the extreme pain he had to be in.

"Can I lift him?" Lewis asked the doctor. To Sasha's surprise, tears filled the stern man's eyes. Apparently, Dustin's injury had hit him hard.

Dustin grabbed Lewis's shirt. "Save Randy. He's been taken by the fae."

"What?" Fear shot through Sasha. "Why would they take him?"

"He's possessed," Dustin whispered.

"Oh shit!" Tian turned to Sasha. "That spirit king. He kept watching Randy."

"What king?" Sasha asked.

"He looked a bit like your mate. He wandered off whenever you were around."

"Why didn't you say anything?"

"He's a ghost.
