The Pack: Rule Number 1- No Mates

Chapter Sixty–Four

DRAVEN

Draven, this is Gayle and this is Toedora, Paul says once he and the two females are finally inside.

The five of us are gathered around the living room. Tadora sits upon the ottoman, devilish smirk on her face. She is gorgeous, with skin the color of hot chocolate and long golden braids dressed in an array of different beads that dance down her back. Her hazel eyes study me with fascination and I have to wonder what about me interests her so much. The other shifter, Gayle, appears to be a female version of Ciryffin. Colden skin, golden hair, and the same light amber eyes. I can see the resemblance there and I know right away that she must be his sister. The pair of them seem so hypnotized by me I’m curious as to what Demonic told them to get

them here.

Emily sits at one end of the couch and I sit at the other. I wonder if Paula and the lips know that Emily is still under the impression that the only shifter of the group is Domenic. Although at first, I thought it best to leave it to the wolves to explain things to her, Em beginning to think maybe I should be the one. Partly because I want to be able to ask my questions whole Emily’s in the room and partly because I’m afraid of what they’re discussing right now.

The fall moon.

“M dawn tomorrow, we’ll be back to normal and the four of you should be free to head back to Port Orchard Poul says.

Emily’s mouth falls open and I meet her questioning gaze with a tempered one of my own. Shaking my head no, I plead with her to keep her mouth shut for now. Her jaw snaps closed with a sharp little clack and she nods.

I clear my throat. “I need to speak with Emily alone for a few minutes.”

“Right on.” Taedora says, getting up from her seat. ‘Gayle and I need to do a couple poses of the island. You know, make sure there aren’t any stray animals running -around

“Yup, and I’ll be heading out,” Paul chimes. His eyes meet mine for a brief moment. Nice to see you’re alive and well. I was worried about you. I wanted to call you, but Domanic–he sighs-“well you know how he is.”

“I do,” I say, standing to give Paul a tight hug. “Thanks!“

Paul’s arms linger around me for a whole moment, his lips falling toward my ears. “want you to know, I’m going to do my best tonight to find out who killed Marcus. There’s got to be a trail there somewhere. Our senses will be stronger tonigh hopefully we’ll get a lead.”
