Chapter 0091

Dane

The bastard had killed eight men. They all had families. Some were older with children of their own, some were younger, freshly graduated and wanting to prove themselves as warriors. It should have been a simple task, protecting my mate.

None of us knew. It was the down side of shifting under a full moon. We were at our strongest, yet we got caught up in the haze of hunting. Drowning out everything that isn’t related to what we are tracking.

She sighs as she drops the brush on to the bed next to her, rejigging the blanket to cover herself properly.
