Elijah paused and turned, facing the brawny lowed in the shadows of the cave The lycan was bristling and half shifted, his arrayish pelt
The beast in Elijah growled a warning, but he held it in check, a control thaterous softness He’d been waiting for this, had known it was coes until he established his doh physical prowess in addition to a lycan’s instinctive need to fol ow a leader
The lycan’s nostrils flared, his chest heaving as he fought against his beast Lacking Elijah’s control, Nic would lose

Nic had asked hi for cohesion, trust, loyalty--the ceether Greater nuhtly commanded elite ether
A fe froreeted hi herself as Sarah
"You have a visitor A vampire"
His brows rose "A vampire? As in one?"
"Yes She asked for the Alpha"

Nic skidded sideways on his paws, then found traction and attacked again Elijah rushed forward to intercept hi for purchase Nic caught hi and bit hard Elijah went for the flank, his teeth digging in deep, his beast growling at the heady taste of hot, rich blood

He was abruptly sick of playing with Nicodedown on the lycan’s back Catching him by the throat, Elijah pinned hih to wound and warn but not enough to kilYet
Just the slightest increase in pressure would cut off Nic’s air
Nic writhed for a fewin an effort to shake off his opponent Then blood loss and exhaustion stole his strength He whirowl ru those of every lycan in the cave They stood around the peri quickly as he dared al comers
Satisfied that he’d made his point for the reat room, his attention riveted to that ripe, sweet scent that was e of clothes," he said to the cave at large, not caring who did it, just that it got done "And a da when she appeared, looking just as he reh-heeled boots, black Lycra bodysuit that clung to every curve, scarlet red hair that fel to her waist, and pearly white fangs She looked like so out of a BDSM-laced wet dream and he wanted to fuck her nearly as badly as he wanted to kil her The lust was instinctual and unwelcorief and pain She’d kil ed his best friend in a slow, agonizing death while trying to get to hi he’d murdered her friend Nikki, a vahter-in-law

He’d kil ed her friend, and he was going to pay
She stalked closer, her booted heels clicking across the uneven stone floor They lived in a goddas She’d tried for days to talk Syre out of this fool’s errand, but the vampire leader would not be swayed He believed the old "the enereed with that if they were talking about anyone but lycans
