Alpha and Beta? Claire frowned. Alpha Donovan was standing off to one side, twice his usual size, which meant one of the wolves had to be Hendricks Did
that mean the other was his own Beta?
The two brawling beasts separated themselves and began to circle. The russet wolf was limping, unable to put any weight on his front left leg, while the
dark one had a slash across his face and muzzle, left eye a complete mess. Both were covered in wounds, brood matting their fur.
Honestly, why were they even fighting one another? Weren’t they suppose to be on the same side?
Bahiti’s ears perked up as he turned to face the way they’d come.
“Company’s coming,” Lan’gny called out, sounding far too excited.
“More guests to entertain,” his sister exclaimed with glee.
Guests? That had to mean more wolves. “Hey, guys, where’s the other one? The one you were helping – Gamma Porter?,” Claire asked, suddenly realizing he hadn’t returned with them.
“Oh, he’s fine,” the brother giggled.
“He was having lots of fun with us but then the others ganged up on him.”
“Once he couldn’t fight anymore we put him in a tree for safe keeping.”
They put him… in a tree. For safe keeping. Claire closed her eyes and forced herself to take a slow breath. Those two had the most outrageous ideas.
“So he’s good?”
Bahiti let out a chuffing noise, as if to assure her the twins spoke the truth not that they could lie, being fae. The Alpha would also be able to tell of his

“They’re here!,” Ptyrese called out in a sing song voice.
Lan’gny cheered. “Let’s party!”
