Chapter Sixteen

Zane strode down the hallway of Gabby’s apartment building and quickly made his way down the steps. He knew that Sam and Tommy were watching him from the surrounding woods, and possibly Quentin too.

Fuck them.

His bear was fighting at the surface; he had wanted a piece of Gabby too, but now that Zane had left the apartment, his bear was angry over a number of things.

He was glad that he had driven his car over to Gabby’s instead of shifting, and he hopped into his Hummer hoping that the bears protecting Gabby were watching him.

Why had he even gone over there?

Frustrated, he slammed his fists down on the steering wheel.

He knew why.

There had been so much information from Jeffries, and now Zane knew the terrible, terrible truth.

He had killed Gabby’s father.

He had slain the last bear king.

He remembered Michael’s dad telling him that the bear had been some kind of a king, but it had meant nothing to Zane at the time. Those words had been simply words, and he wasn’t sure if had quite believed it, or even understood what it meant.

But hearing the way that Jeffries had described it…. Well, it made Zane seem more like a monster than the frightened kid he had been.

And not only that, but Michael knew the terrible truth, too.

The only saving grace was that as close as he and Alicia had been, he had never confided in her about that part of his past. He shuddered to think of what could have happened if he had told Alicia about that bizarre incident nearly twenty years ago.

She would have known. And therefore, Grayson would have known.

And every member of the clan would have known if Grayson was aware of that information.

And aside from the fucking nightmare of the fact that he killed a bear, which happened to be the last of a line of bear kings, the icing on the cake was that it was Gabby’s father.

Her father.

In what sick and twisted world could that be true?

Zane was avoiding Michael because he didn’t want to know what Michael had to say. He knew that Michael would be rational and practical about the matter, and something that Jeffries said kept playing over and over again in his mind.

Bring her into the tribe, protect her and give her no choice but to mate. She will strengthen the gene pool.

If Michael chose to do that, then she would have to leave the life she knew and she would despise Zane once she knew the truth.

Gabby hadn’t told Zane how her father had died, or else Zane might have been able to place the puzzle pieces together. Instead, she had only alluded to a fear of bears.

FUCK.

Zane wanted to keep driving, to forget about Michael and Gabby and bear kings and protecting the damn clan from blood dilution.

But he knew he couldn’t.

He was second in command, and it was his duty to go back to Michael.

In fact, Michael had been more than generous in allowing Zane to run off.
