Chapter 18

Silas’ eyes flew open. His heartbeat pounded. Taking a huge gulp of air, he lay still and filtered scents and sounds. Exhaling, he rolled over from the sweat-dampened sheets and stared at the ceiling. Had he been dreaming? Or did he and Jasmine actually stand in front of the Goddess discussing Wolf politics? Jasmine accused her former government of deliberate sabotage of the pack. She claimed they were secretly funding weapons that would harm or destroy both full-bloods and half-breeds. He shook his head. Standing before the Goddess in a long white Grecian-style dress, with gold braids framing her waist, she stated her position without fear and a level of confidence that still surprised him.

How had she figured out what he and Jacques suspected for decades? Not that he blamed them. If he were president of the United States and had been informed there were dual-natured individuals living in the country, he would have done exactly what Lincoln had done decades ago. Search for ways to survive against an enemy attack. With the addition of millions of half-breeds, the human government had been thrown a curve ball of gigantic proportions. Half-breeds were more human than wolf and not the animals Silas suspected the government had been comfortably calling his pack.

“Jasmine?”

“Yes?”

He scooted to the edge of the bed and stood. Rested, he followed the scent of food. His mate had the strangest habits. But if cooking a few meals eased her, he had no complaints. Entering the kitchen, he froze as a greeting died in his throat.

Jasmine stood in the middle of the kitchen, stirring something in a large, yellow ceramic bowl. Cakes, pies, cookies and assorted other foods covered the countertops. A few platters of delicacies lay atop the table.

“How long did I sleep?” He asked running his hand through his hair while staring at the overflowing counters.

“Hmm?” She looked up at him.

Silas waved at all the food. “How long was I out?”

“A few hours.” She said, pouring batter into a pan.

He nodded and picked up a glazed pastry. “I had a strange… dream?” After swallowing the sweet, he told her about the visit with the Goddess and the conversation.

Jasmine’s mouth dropped open and then she frowned. “Could that have happened without me being aware of it?”

“Not that I know of but you don’t seem that surprised about the conversation.” He leaned against the counter, watching her.

She waved her hand. “If you mean about the government, no, that doesn’t surprise me. When all the layers are peeled, you’ll find some super-secret government group underwriting the chemicals, bombs and all kinds of things against us.”

Pleased she firmly identified with his pack, he popped another pastry into his mouth. “I agree with you. Not sure about the flesh bombs, though.” Their most recent request to meet with him and Hawke came right after Froggy died. His spirits lagged, thinking of his old friend who had supported him 100 percent from day one.

She grabbed a bottle of water from the refrigerator. “One
