* * *

Kendrick found Tiger a little way down the drive. He’d turned human—a giant of a man with orange and black hair—and was rummaging in a duffel bag he’d pulled from his motorcycle. Shifters liked duffels—easy to throw all kinds of clothes into them in case they had to shift away from home.

Tiger had already put on jeans and now eased on a blue T-shirt with “SoCo Novelties” on the front, silently unfolding it down his torso. He gave Kendrick a critical once-over, turned back to the duffel, then pulled out and tossed him a T-shirt and sweatpants.

Kendrick got into the clothes, more to keep the sun off his skin than any worry about modesty. He and Tiger were nearly the same size, Tiger a little larger, Tiger’s eyes a golden version of Kendrick’s green ones.

“What does Dylan want?” Kendrick asked him.

Tiger gave him a slow blink, looking slightly puzzled. “Dylan didn’t send me.”

Kendrick beckoned him under the shadows of a mesquite. Shade could take ten degrees off the three-digit temps that happened even in May. “Then why are you here, and how did you find me. Seamus told you where I was?”

“I haven’t talked to Seamus,” Tiger said. “I saw your mate in San Antonio. Knew she was yours. I looked for her to make sure she was all right. And your cubs.”

Kendrick followed the disjointed speech with growing uneasiness. “How did you find us? How many others know? I can’t have the entire Shiftertown coming out here.” Not to mention the Shifters who wanted to kill him. If too many knew about this place, his plans would have to change again.

Tiger waited until he finished. “I can find people. It’s what I do. She broadcast scent—yours—in a big way. It took me two days to track her down. I told no one, and they did not notice what I did.” He huffed in some irritation. “Now you tell me I could have hitched a ride with Seamus.”

Kendrick folded his arms. “Now that you know where we are, what are you going to do? Report to Dylan? To Liam?”

Tiger shook his head. “I report to no one. Except to my mate.” His hard face softened in a hurry. “Carly worries about me.”

Kendrick couldn’t blame her. Tiger had been created in a human laboratory, how, Kendrick didn’t really want to know, and maybe even Tiger didn’t know fully. Tiger had abilities that other Shifters did not—every sense heightened plus an uncanny way of knowing when things were going to happen. Kendrick had only met him once before but he’d been struck with how the quiet Tiger knew more about the world around him than any Shifter he’d ever met. He also didn’t quite fit into that world, only looking comfortable when he talked about his mate, a human woman called Carly.

“Again, I ask—what are you going to do?” Kendrick said. “I don’t want my Shifters, my cubs, my mate to be compromised. I have things to do, actions to plan.
