between clenched teeth.
    “I’m saving your life!” Flint said with a dark laugh.
    “From what?” Falyn wanted to know.
    “Seems you’re a lot more special than even I first thought!” Flint’s eyes had gone soft as he told her this.
    “Flint please, that’s a dead-end road.”
    “I know, but I still think about you,” he murmured.
    “Well, stop,” she told him.
    “You want to know why I’m here?” Flint asked her.
    “Saving my life apparently,” Falyn barked irritably.
    “Yeah, from a pack of Shadow wolves and a few other lowlifes,” Flint answered as he turned onto his street.
    “How do you even know it’s me they’re after?”
    Falyn herself had barely put it together less than twenty-four hours ago.
    “And since when do Shadow wolves travel in packs? I thought having no pack was part of being a Shadow wolf?” Falyn wondered aloud.
    “It is, which is why it was strange to learn a pack of them was hunting you,” Flint said.
    “How did you find all this out?” Falyn inquired.
    “The pack works with a mystic. She warned us.”
    “Great, now every person in touch with magic is going to be able to seek me out?” Falyn felt sick at the idea.
    “Sadly this is likely true, though I guess a tall tale about your death slowed some of them down,” Flint grinned.
    “Awesome,” she muttered.
    “Hey, at least the Shadow wolves didn’t make it to you first!” Flint had a point.
    “Thanks for your help, but I need to get out of town,” Falyn grumbled.
    “You have the pack watching over you, Falyn. Nothing is going to get to you,” Flint promised.
    “I am not a member of your kind of pack!” Falyn reminded him.
    “I am the Alpha and you mean something to me, no matter your blood ties.”
    “I don’t want to start a war!”
    If all the mystics were picking her up, so would the Lycan court.
    “You can stay till we find out who is after you and why, and then you can chose what is best for you,” Flint said.
    “Fine,” Falyn agreed.
    Falyn felt all kinds of emotions as she made her way up to the house where she’d spent so much time in the past. The pack was all there, and no one seemed shocked to see her. One of the women on the steps looked her over before she walked back inside. Falyn felt her pulse pick up, knowing without anyone telling her the woman was Flint’s mate.
    “Don’t mind Ella, she just has a jealous bone,” Flint joked.
    “Wonderful!” Falyn said.
    Her mind could not help but go over how Ella had stopped Flint from mating with her all those years ago. Seemed the fact of Falyn’s bloodlines was not the only reason.
    The house was now clearly Ella’s and Flint’s, and no longer a group house, not now since the Alpha had a mate.
    “We’re not married,” Flint whispered in her ear as he guided her into the living room.
    Her heartbeat was so fast she could not slow it down. She was now sitting there on the same sofa where she had wanted so much to be Flint’s mate!
    “Falyn.” Flint’s voice was a warning.
    Falyn could feel her teeth growing and see with her wolf sight, which meant her eyes were glowing yellow.
    “This is too much,” Falyn whispered as she got up from the sofa, making a move for the front door.
    “No stop! Please listen!” Flint grabbed her arm.
    Flint turned her toward him. Placing her hands on his chest, Falyn felt the blood leaving her face.
    “I loved you – and I still love you! If Ella had not stopped me all those years ago, I would have chosen you, Falyn, I would have made you mine. Bloodline be damned!”
    He took her mouth in a kiss which any other day would have made her knees weak. Not today… Today it made her angry. She wanted to punch him in the face for bringing her back here and trying to claim her.
    The sound of her hand cracking across his face echoed through the house. Call it ironic or a higher power, but the clap of thunder that broke immediately afterwards, shaking the room, was to Falyn a sign.
    “How dare you even
