I sat still. I knew I couldn’t run away without being caught, so I would sit, watch, and wait. I was going to hold back on any magic

use until I was somewhere else. Since Rick said the forest was covered in magical traps, this was once I was out I would be safe.

I just needed to get out first.

Rick narrowed his eyes. “You aren’t going to come quietly, are you?” I just settled on the ground. I wasn’t stupid, but I wasn’t going to just fall in line, either. He chuckled and turned to Morgan. “Watch my son. Don’t let him get close to the wolf.” Morgan nodded, but Vince was already turning away. “Rick, come with me. You can carry me back here with our shit and the pup.” Rick’s eyes tightened again and then he nodded.

He smiled. “Yeah. Poor thing has to survive another week.”

He shifted and left the clearing while Morgan and Brandon glared at me. “Are you seriously still going after Amy’s mom?” Brandon sagged against a tree. “I mean, I get it. She’s hot. And the power of the women in that family is especially potent. But she

will kill you if she figures it out first.”

Morgan nodded. “Hell yeah she will, but that is a part of it. Plus, we really need their money.”

“Why?” Brandon pushed off the tree. “Who cares if some lycans survived?” What the fuck did he just say? Some of the Lycans survived… “Who gives a fuck about the first family? Why is he so obsessed with either of them?” Morgan sighed as he looked at me, but Brandon just laughed. “Who the hell is she going to tell…she’s going to be dead soon enough.” I laid down, unimpressed or worried about his words. None of them actually scared me. “So tell me, you said once I was out of college, you would tell me.

It’s been months and I’m still in the dark.”

Morgan watched me for a moment and I have never wanted someone to become a typical human bad guy in my entire life. Please

monologue. Please.

Do you really think they are that stupid? Nix huffed out a tired laugh.

I can fucking hope. I turned my back on them, hoping that if I ignore them, they might talk.

“Look, your dad has his own plans. But the lycans and the first family are a focal point for a reason.”

I tucked my head on my back so I kept one eye on them. I watched as Brandon threw up his hands. “He keeps saying that, but

why?”

Morgan huffed out a sigh. “The lycans are simple. They are stronger, faster, and fully support the king. You dad spent decades

wiping them out.”

Holy fucking goddess. Nix growled.

“Well, Vince and the brotherhood.” Morgan paced away.

What the fuck is the brotherhood? Megan finally caught her breath and made her way back to the barrier.

Brandon groaned. “The brotherhood of bloodshed. Always the fucking brotherhood. Who the fuck are they? Why do they

matter?” He turned and hit his head against the tree. Seriously? “Morgan, just talk to me like a man. Please.”

Morgan sighed again, as if this was a huge inconvenience. “Why don’t you pay attention? The brotherhood was formed by Garith.

He formed it back when the king pushed out the older alphas in lieu of their sons.”

“I know all this, but who are they? Who the hell is Garith?” The name was wiggling around in my brain. I knew the name, but I

couldn’t place it.

“It doesn’t matter. You will get to meet him soon.” Morgan looked back at me but my eyes were closed over, so it looked liked I

was sleeping, unbothered or concerned with their conversation, but I was watching them through the slit in my lids. “Anyway,

when the old king pushed the alphas put, they banded together. But it was Garith that started meeting with the others.”

Brandon furrowed his brows. “Isn’t Garith the alpha…” He trailed off, trying to think.
