Chapter Seven

Dougal cursed himself the entire journey to the base. His plan had worked and his crew had shown hours after he’d set the fire. Why had it taken them so long to get to them?

One problem at a time.

Gods help him, he’d told her he was going to be a very bad mate and he’d meant it. Why had he let her see him snap the dragon’s neck?

She had to think he was a brute, and she wouldn’t be wrong. He’d honestly wanted to see if he could do it. How easy was it to wring the creature’s neck if it couldn’t move?

This was after he suggested he kill the thing to begin with.

Something had gone terribly wrong. His mind couldn’t stay focused. It had taken the boats six hours to come back for them and no way in hell should it have taken half the time. Why hadn’t the boats come back in the first place? How were the dragons getting the drugs to the general population? Nothing made sense and the only thing he knew was his mate had to be kept safe. If anyone found out what she could do the dragons would come for her, or the Werewolves selling drugs would be after her, or maybe his own Werewolves would want to use her abilities.

Caitlyn had to be kept safe.

He rubbed at his head. Caitlyn stared at her hands. “Are you okay?”

She looked at him. “Are you?”

Not even close. He wasn’t going to discuss things in front of any of the others. Davey, the young soldier who shot her, sat across from them, his mouth in a thin line.

Dougal debated how he wanted to get his information. Davey was probably a good source. He wanted to kill Davey. Regardless, the other man’s guilt for shooting Caitlyn could be useful. Maybe the Werewolf would be chatty.

It was a bad day in the hell which was war when he could no longer trust the motives of his fellow Werewolves.

“Davey.” He caught the man’s attention. “Were you trying to finish the job?”

The young man’s eyebrows raised. “Sir?”

“You shot my mate in the boat. And then left us there on the island with the dragons. Were you hoping they’d finish the job for you?”

He didn’t believe Davey had shot Caitlyn on purpose. Not at all. Davey didn’t have to know Dougal had relieved him of guilt. Caitlyn opened and closed her mouth. Whatever she wanted to add, she’d thought better of it. Good girl.

Intellectually, he knew she could protect herself—had been forced to with the war. She was his to defend, and though he would not be with her always, he needed her to consider every word, every action in her defense.

“No, sir. I’m sorry I shot Miss Caitlyn, I mean, your mate. I didn’t mean to, I swear.” Davey touched his own neck in the same spot where his teeth marks showed on Caitlyn’s. “It was an accident. We didn’t come with the boat because Brett told us it wasn’t okay to.
