I AWOKE IN the bed of my unicorn room and heard muffled voices just outside of my door. I rolled over and could see that it was popped open a few inches.

“No, no, human DNA is too weak to carry a dragon child. They always miscarry,” Logan whispered.

“Well, then, what is she? Hybrids are rare, right?” Keegan whispered back.

“Very,” Logan spoke. “So much so that I’ve only ever heard of a handful. I know that shifters and skyborn species cannot bear young, so she can’t be part shifter. She might be part sorcerer though.”

Keegan gave a low whistle. “This is crazy. Girl lives her whole life spelled to think she’s human, and now this. If people found out there was another dragon. A hybrid dragon at that…”

Logan’s voice turned sharp, deadly. “No one will find her.”

Keegan suddenly moved in front of the doorway. I could see his back through the crack. “Her heart rate has elevated. She’s awake.”

Logan sighed. “Alright. I’ll go talk to her. You need to hire two new shifters. You’re right, six isn’t enough.”

Keegan must have been grinning; I could hear it in his voice. “You don’t tell me I’m right often enough, my friend. I like the sound of it. I’ll get right on it. Not sure there are two more shifters in the world I trust, but I know a friend who has a pack of old-school shifters that were raised to protect like Sophie and I were. I trust him, and they will take the oath of protection same as I did.”

It sounded like this oath of protection was something you couldn’t go back on without serious consequences.

“Thank you,” Logan told him, and Keegan moved to leave. “One more thing … I think we need a pack sorcerer, and Danny is powerful and I trust him … Eva’s too busy with the bar.” I could feel the tension in the air from my place on the bed ten feet away.

“You want me to hire my ex-boyfriend? The one I broke up with to keep your secret?” Keegan’s voice could cut glass and it gave me chills. There was so much hurt there.

Logan’s voice was soft but laced with anger. “I told you to tell him who I was. I never wanted you guys to break up.”

Keegan growled but it wasn’t threatening, more just to blow off steam. “We have rules. No one outside of this pack can know who you are.”

“Unless it’s your mate or someone who takes the oath,” Logan added.

“Danny is neither. I’ll see you later,” Keegan said, and stalked off down the hall, his feet stomping out the anger I knew he was feeling.

For such a hardass and closed-off guy, I was surprised by how much emotion he showed over his ex. He must have really loved him, and still did by the sound of it, but took his own rules too seriously to hang on to the guy. I was so caught up in the Keegan and Danny soap opera that I almost didn’t notice Logan enter the room.
