Chapter 10 DANE My wolf snarled .

I wanted to rip off Holden Coleridges smug face .

But pack gatherings like this were sacred .

Times when we made alliances , business deals .

Times when pack members could meet each other , and mating bonds could form .

Ripping off the faces of other Alphas was discouraged .

Besides , he couldnt be telling the truth .

If my mate ex ex mate was engaged to the Alpha of Fall Line , I would know .

Ann Reed had come into my life and destroyed my family .

Id broken hers in return , but at least they were alive .

If she was engaged to someone else , why should I care ? The thought made my wolf snarl again .

She had escaped from me .

I wasnt done with her yet .

As I stared her down , noticed the way the years had only made her more beautiful , I told myself thats what it was .

Chapter 10 2/6 Not the strange dreams I still had about the girl Id saved eight years ago .

Dreams where I saved her , protected her , and it felt so damn right .

I hated those dreams .

I had to believe I hated them .

Because that was the only way it was normal to feel about the woman who had destroyed my life .

I couldnt let her go .

I leaned in toward her and growled , I need to talk to you .

She stepped back .

Toward Holden .

My wolf went feral .
