Chapter 639: Get Roman Back

Shifters had an uncanny ability to recognize threats, and right now, they didn’t want this unmated bird anywhere near their mate.

The male had long, dark hair that flowed down his shoulders — an attribute Griffin was exactly jealous of. It framed his sculpted face, his jawline so sharp it could cut.

He was built too, every line defined with predatory grace. The antlers that curled proudly from his head didn’t diminish his looks one bit; if anything, they made him appear even darker, more mysterious, the kind of dangerous that drew your gaze before you could stop yourself.

Then there were the wings. Feathers as dark as midnight stretching wide behind him, layered thick and sharp, like obsidian blades meant to both mesmerize and maim.

They looked impossibly strong, capable of wrapping around someone and shutting out the world entirely. And the way they framed his muscled form made him look less like a creature and more like a fallen god sculpted in the likeness of sin itself.

It was safe to say that, until this moment, the cardinal alphas had never felt lacking.

And it didn’t help that Lucen’s aura reeked of dominance. Power rolled off him in waves, and that could only mean one thing.

He was an Alpha.

It was something primal that every shifter in the room could smell, a quiet challenge that scraped against their instincts and made their wolves stir restlessly beneath their skin.

It didn’t help either that Violet was staring at him with wide fascination, like a child discovering her first shiny toy.

Ugly, wild jealousy rippled through Asher’s chest, dark and consuming. A dangerous growl erupted from his throat, low and primal, before it was echoed by Alaric and Griffin, their voices merging into a collective rumble that made the air itself vibrate.

"Eyes away from my mate," Griffin snarled, his growl the loudest, practically a machine grinding in his chest.
