The mother den was just as imposing as Luther remembered.

Nestled in the center of a forest that surrounded it on three sides, with the sea at its back, the centuries old estate sprawled over at least 200 acres of land. As far as Luther knew, his people and the Elders owned everything within fifty miles of the den for security reasons; and also because it was some of the most breathtaking land in the country.

They passed through three levels of security: Armed guards at the edge of the property, then an inner ring that fenced perhaps fifty acres, and finally the main gate, manned by no less than ten of their strongest. The largest of them stood a full head above Luther, and as he poked his head into the car to assess them, he growled lowly at Yuna's presence.

“You dare bring a human here?”

When his mate was concerned, Luther didn't bother himself with matters of strength or size. He would rip the insolent male apart. “This human is carrying my progeny. And we're expected by the Elders.”

Though the malicious expression on the male's face faded only slightly, it was obvious that he was taken aback by the claim. After taking in the rest of the car's occupants, he waved them through with a gruff command and Luther relaxed slightly. How long that relaxation would last, however, would depend entirely on the level of occupation in the mother den.

He had no idea how many of their kind would be in residence; though he was sure that the vast majority of them would have no love for Yuna.

He realized, as they bumped over the cobblestone drive, that there were more than a few moonkind loitering about the front entryway. No doubt word had spread that a human carrying wolf offspring was arriving. His first priority would be to get Yuna inside and to a safe place. Then, they could deal with the council.

The car pulled to a halt in front of an ornate brick staircase at least 10 meters wide. Reaching back, Luther found first Yuna's hand, and then turned to meet her apprehensive green stare. “You'll be fine. I'm here with you.”

Nita snorted, drawing his glare, and they opened the doors.

No less than ten of their kind waited on the steps, all looking unabashedly over every member of their number that exited the vehicle. When he finally helped Yuna out, the sight of her and the swell of her pregnant stomach caused several gasps, more than a few growls, and, to his surprise, one or two intrigued murmurs. Before anything adverse could happen, however, a tall, thin male with gray coloring his silver blonde hair parted the crowd and ascended the steps to greet him.

“Welcome back, Magnus. To you and your clan.”

“We thank the Elders for their hospitality.” The Douglas' patriarch returned humbly, taking his wife's arm. “They have always helped us in our time of need.”

“Our doors are always open to our own...” The male's expression twisted into slight distaste as he took in Yuna's travel weary form.
