Evan stepped out and caught a glimpse of Annelise’s expression. He knew she wasn’t doing any better than the rest of them.
He spoke first. “Ms. Crawford, I’ll go find him. You don’t have to stress.
“And that rabbit only looks soft. He’s got freak strength. He’ll be fine out there.”
Annelise had never seen that side of the bunny before. Her chest tightened from the thought.
Then the High Priest wandered over, completely missing the mood. “Hey, can you teach me that needle thing you just did?”
Annelise turned to him with a raised brow.
“Are you serious right now?
“You don’t see I’ve got enough going on?”
“Come on. I count as family too. Let me tell you something. When you leave a male alone long enough, he cools down and comes back on his own.
“They can only stay balanced because they’re bonded to your spirit energy. It’s not something to panic about.”
Annelise sighed.
“You’re a male too. That really how you see it?”
The lion tail behind him reached around and gave her a soft pat on the head.
“Exactly why I get it better than anyone.
“Anyway, teach me that healing needle thing.
“You show me that, and I’ll train you in something else. Fair trade.”
Annelise rolled her eyes again.
She thought, I didn’t ask you to train me.
She said, “If you’re training me, that makes you my dad.
“If I teach you my needle technique, then what are we? Does that make me your mom? That’s just gross. No.”

The sun hit the High Priest’s blond hair, making it glow like a halo.

He said, “I’ll be your dad if that’s what it takes. Nothing weird about that. It’s normal for younger shifters to show old-timers new stuff. That’s how the tribe evolves.”
Annelise narrowed her eyes at him.
“You are getting way too comfortable.”
The guy was such a wild relic, he didn’t even register her tone.
He rubbed his cheek and asked, “Really? How do you even see that?
“Did your meat bulk me up?”
“I-”
She opened her mouth, but he just kept going. Two hundred years ago, we barely had food. I was skin and bones.
“Lived in a cave. Hunted birds now and then. That was it.
“Now I eat three meals a day at your place. No wonder I gained weight.”
Annelise gave up.
But what really gnawed at her was that Adrian didn’t return that night.
Evan told her he’d gone after him earlier and tried to talk some sense into him.
Adrian hadn’t seemed off. Said he just wanted some space. Promised he’d be back by night.
But he never came back. Even when Evan and Hudson checked the area again, there was nothing.
Annelise offered to go look herself, but her mates shut it down right away.
She had two days left until her cub came out as an egg. She couldn’t risk it, especially at night.
If a predator found her, that’d be it.
The High Priest stepped forward. “You’re not going. I’ll look for him.”
“But-”
He waved her off, like it was obvious.

“I have time anyway.”
He said dads were supposed to step up for their girls.
“See? I’m finally being useful.”
Annelise didn’t have parents. Not here. Not in the last world either.
That hit harder than she expected.
She couldn’t explain the feeling, but it stuck with her.

And she knew they were right. Leaving now would’ve been reckless. She had a cub on the
way.
And just like that, while she was quietly worrying, her little egg made its entrance.
On day ten, her belly had a soft bump. About the size of a chicken egg. No pain, no pressure. Just a firm little bulge.
Hudson told her to lie down. His hands were shaking as he held the knife.
“Evan, I-I-I’ve only seen my dad do this once. Then they kicked me out. What if I screw this up?”
