Chapter 372
Mason
My wolf, Colt, finally had enough of being suppressed.
His growl ripped out of my throat as I felt my canines lengthening. One nipped my bottom lip, and I tasted. blood. I could’ve restrained him, but I let him show himself as much as I could without actually shifting.
“Bro. Impressive as f uck,” Xander thought to me while aloud, his wolf, Hunter, also snarled.
We were both on our feet, fists on the table, leaning toward the ancient vampire. Malachi turned his face. and waved a hand in front of it.
“Boys, settle yourselves. I can smell your wolves all the way down here.”
Xander’s wolf rumbled in his voice when he replied.
“Mock if you want, but you will not dismiss us.”
“Not when it comes to our Luna,” I added with Colt’s growl edging my tone.
Charlotte stood and waved her hands at all of us.
“Let’s have everyone just calm down. Please. Xander and Mason, don’t make me have you removed from the room. We value your contributions to the leadership council, and I understand your concerns about your mate, but this is not the place for antagonism!”

“Tell that to him,” I muttered with a point of my chin at Malachi. The old bas tar d was smiling at us both. I reeled Colt back in by promising to take another long run with him. Outside, if we could manage it. I sat back in my chair.

It could have sounded like she was just sucking up, but the smile on her face looked sincere. It settled me
down a little. Xander, too.
“But you can’t just keep tossing out all of these bombshells and not expect us to get upset.” I finished Xander’s statement for him. “You all aren’t used to wolves like us, but we aren’t used to any of this at all.”
“Fair enough,” Malachi said in a tone that sounded genuinely sorry.
Charlotte shot him a fond look. “Vampires are well known to have a flair for the dramatic.”

for all to get along and appreciate our differences.”
“So how about instead of being all dramatic about it, then, you just tell us what we should be worried
about for Lanie,” I said.
“Yeah. Is she in danger of getting sick? Or ending up in a coma? What?” Xander demanded.
Malachi leaned forward in his chair. “Unfortunately, much as with everything else relating to my granddaughter in particular, we simply cannot be one hundred percent sure. There have been cases of hybrids. who, for some reason or another, have been unable to access their full strengths, even with a lot of training. Some with a lesser m ental capacity, for example.”
“Lanie’s one of the smartest women I’ve ever met.” I defended her boldly.
