"Donnie!” I snap at him as instinct takes over.

The need to mate makes him feral as he locks onto her scent. My chest rattles a s I try to suppress the savage noises leaving me. Jonah, clearly petrified, reaches for Sage when I feel my canines slip out and I turn away from him, fighting Donnie for control, primal instincts kicking in as he sees our son as a threat. 

“Jonah, get in the car,” I grit out as fur spills out up my arms. Jonah looks at me horrified, but I didn’t know how to explain without scaring him more, Donnie wildly trying to take control when I didn’t mate her instantly. 

“Dad?” Jonah cries, grabbing my arm and making my head snap in his direction. He pulls his hand away. “Dad, you’re scaring me,” Jonah sobs and I shake my head or Donnie does at his words. 

“Our Son,” I spit at Donnie, needing him t o see Jonah, not an enemy. He seems to calm slightly, letting me have control back, and Jonah swallows and I feel my canines and claws retract before I let out a breath.

“Come here buddy, I didn’t mean to scare you,” I tell him, reaching for him. Sage groans before turning quickly and throwing up again, barely missing my feet. 

“What’s wrong with her?” Jonah asks as I brush her hair back that was sticking to her face from perspiration. 

“Andrei?” Sage mumbles and I set Jonah o n his feet at my side.

“I feel funny” 

“I know. Let’s get you home,” I tell her, scooping her up. Her skin was clammy despite it being rather chilly today. The wind had a harsh bite and Jonah’s teeth chatter as the sun slipped behind the mountains. 

Donnie was pressing beneath my skin, wanting control as I walk toward the car, 

“Get the door Jonah,” I tell him and he opens the back door, and I lay Sage down o n the backseatJonah climbs in beside her and my hands grip the door frame as I struggled against my wolf.

“It’s Jonah, you fucking hurt him Donnie I will drink wolfsbane, now settle down,” I tell him, as I fight him to shut the door and not rip our son from the car. 

“Jonah, Jonah our son,” he chants in my head and I finally shut the door before climbing in the driver’s side. Mind linking Zane, I continued driving for a few minutes before pulling up out the front. Zane is waiting out the front of the pack house, glancing around nervously. 

“Jonah, go with Uncle Zane, please. You need to stay with him tonight,” I tell Jonah. 

“What, why?” Jonah asks just as Zane opens the backdoor with his hands up in a surrendering gesture, knowing Donnie would be on edgeMy hands white knuckle the steering wheel.
