They had heard my approach.

I got out of the car, as the lieutenant of the Bow Mar’s stepped into the front yard to meet me. I recognized him from the peace talks. He was the top enforcer of the clan leader, and as despicable as his alpha.

“Where is she?” I asked, not bothering to slow down my pace toward the house.

“Fucking wait, Varga. I want to talk to you.”

He held out his arm across my chest, trying to halt me. I grabbed it and twisted it sharply behind his back, hearing the satisfying sound of a bone cracking. He yelped in pain.

“Your brother brought this about! He started shit with the clan. We’re just retaliating!”

I yanked his head toward mine.

“You don’t touch humans. You don’t touch MY woman. And you certainly don’t threaten me,” I hissed at him, “Was it the peace talks? Did you somehow get the idea that I was soft? Did you mistakenly believe that I would go easy on you?”

I tightened my grip on his arm, pushing it further up his back. He whimpered in pain.

“She’s downstairs. We didn’t touch her, I swear it.”

“We’ll see about that.”

I ushered him through the old barn. I could smell Chloe from here. Her scent that was like the sweet aroma of the mountains, and the acrid scent of her fear. It cut my soul. I had done this to her. This was my fault.

I followed her scent in the direction of the basement. We descended the steps, my grip tight on the shifter.

Chloe was in the far corner of the room, cowering behind a bear. I could now smell her blood, fresh and potent. My bear jolted inside me. It wanted out.

Both shifters spun around to face me. I knew who they were. I threw the enforcer to the floor. Both these men were the pride of the Bow Mar pack. They were trained killers, both having served time for human crimes, and both reportedly unmatched in their strength and brutality.

I wanted to take Chloe in my arms. To just run from this place, make sure she was safe before I hunted each one of them down and repaid their torture in kind.

But I couldn’t.

If I went to her now, they would gain the upper hand. We would both be dead.

“Just remember your brother started this Varga,” the enforcer growled from the floor, “You both die for his mistakes today.”

The bear started to gain on me, and the other shifted to join him. I took one look at Chloe’s face, terrified and confused, and I knew what I was about to do would cause me to lose her forever.

The realization added to my fury. I had planned to break it to her gently, in the kindest way I could. Now she was getting a shifter 101 in the most brutal way imaginable.

I felt my bear tugging on me furiously. He wanted out. I didn’t have an alternative option.

I shifted. Chloe’s scream echoed across the room, and I cursed myself along with the rest of the vile creatures for causing her pain.
