Chapter Seven

He should get out to the caves where Vape and his minions were likely making preparations to attack the Dark Moon pack, before he was missed, but Ben’s priorities would always be with his own pack. Even if he was putting his own life in danger. Hell, he did that every day. Had for the past five years.

Sure, this was a tad different; he was disobeying a direct order from Vape. If he died as a result, hopefully, the rest of the pack would survive.

Ben waited until he was right next to Elias’s garage to shift into human form, and then he picked the lock and slid inside.

He wove his way through tool boxes and truck parts and garbage cans and Rubbermaid bins with “Christmas” scrawled across the top in black Sharpie, and then he beat on the door leading into the house until the alpha himself flung it open.

The furious look on the man’s face morphed into surprise. “Ben. What are you doing here?”

“Ben?” he heard a high-pitched voice say. And then Hannah’s face popped into view next to Elias’s shoulder.

Why couldn’t the damn woman follow a simple freaking direction?

“What are you doing here?” she asked, repeating Elias’s question.

“What the hell are you doing here?” he demanded.

Elias pulled the door open wider. “Come on in, Ben.”

He stepped into the kitchen, glaring at Hannah as he brushed past her.

“What happened to leaving town?” he practically snarled at her.

“You’re lucky I can tell that your snippiness is a result of fear for my safety,” she replied.

“Snippiness?”

“Stop it, both of you,” Elias cut in. “Now, Ben, I take it you have something to report?”

Ben glanced at Hannah. “She needs to leave first.”

Elias sighed. “Ben, I think you’re underestimating Hannah. I know I certainly have been these past two years. She can be an asset in this—”

“No. Absolutely not. I’m not putting her into danger.”

“That’s not your decision to make,” Hannah annoyingly pointed out.

It should be, though. If she were his mate, he’d have every right to ensure she was safe.

Wait. Whoa. He didn’t want a mate. His lifestyle was far too dangerous to even consider—

“She’s right,” Elias said.

“Huh?”

Elias waved at Hannah. “You don’t get to make decisions for her. Let her make her own choices.”

“Son of a—” Ben flung his hands into the air. “Fine. You want to know what’s going on? We’re dealing with a pack of rogue shifters, Hannah. A very dangerous pack. They’re the largest one on the freaking continent right now, and their leader has been traveling around the country, recruiting shifters to strengthen his numbers—”

“Vape,” she whispered, her face going so pale she could pass for a ghost.

Ben grabbed onto her arm, in case she needed help staying upright. And then he snatched his hand away. “Wait. How do you know Vape?”

She shook her head. “I don’t know him. I know of him.”

“What?” How the fuck was she connected to Vape and his crew?

Elias shoved a glass full of clear liquid into her hand. She lifted it to her lips and chugged.
