This is crazy. I’m sitting in a hut with three gorgeous men who are telling me they’re werewolves. And that they live in a hidden world deep inside a mountain.

She dropped her hands and swallowed hard. She wasn’t dreaming, not when Walker’s touch was real enough to send shivers through her. Even after all they’d told her, she ached to pull them to her and let them do whatever they wanted to her body.

“Are you okay?”

Renkon, the more easygoing one of the three, stared at her, worry making lines in his forehead where usually there were none. She didn’t want to be the cause of that. “Yeah, I’m okay. I just need a little time. But you have more to tell me, don’t you?”

“You need to know about Burac and The Cursed.” Walker fisted his hands. “After what they almost did to you, I could throttle each and every one of them.”

“It’s one of the few things we agree on.” Rosh shot her a soft look. “Aside from you, of course.”

“What are they? Another kind of supernatural?”

“Yes and no.” Renkon’s tone was mellower and filled with pity. “They’re…different. We don’t know why it happened since they came into being a long time ago, but the tales say that they were born to werewolf parents but they couldn’t change. You see, werewolf babies will transform within a few weeks of being born. It’s only a quick change, and I won’t lie, it’s painful, but it gets their body ready to morph into a full werewolf later on. But the legend says that The Cursed tried to go through the change and made only a partial transformation. They’re stuck between their human and werewolf bodies.”

“So that’s why they look the way they do.” As hard as it was to believe that she could feel anything but revulsion toward Burac and his kind, her heart bled for them. “That’s the thing that I almost hit before I ran off the road. So they’re in the real world, too?”

“Only Burac can leave The Hidden. The others don’t have enough power. But he can’t go far.”

“Thank goodness. I’d hate to think of those things running around the city.”

“If they got out, they’d expose not only themselves but all other supernaturals, too. We’re trying to make sure that Burac can’t leave, but sometimes he manages to get out for a short time.”

“Our ancestors lived in a different era, when only the strong could survive. Nonetheless, they couldn’t bring themselves to kill the poor things so, once the babies had grown into children, they brought them here to live or die on their own.”

“But surely their parents loved them. How could they abandon their children?” She didn’t care what problems a child of hers might have, she could never turn her back on him.

“It was a harder time. Our kind was barely surviving. They did what they thought was best for the pack.”

She understood what Rosh was saying, but it didn’t make her feel any better about it.
