the human turned to him and raised an eyebrow at him.  Dante sighed and motioned with his hand for him to give him the phone.
    Finally, he handed it to him, and then the human knelt on the floor next to the wolf and petted her soothingly and whispered in her ear.
    “Alpha, we seem to have a problem.  Tell me how to make her shift, we have a plane to catch and don’t really have the time for this , ” Dante said with an exasperated tone. 
    The Alpha chuckled in his ear. “I hate to tell you , if a wolf doesn’t want to shift , she won ' t.  I ' m calling Orfeo and talking to him; I have never heard of another White Wolf anywhere.  Either they were hiding the fact, or they didn’t know she was special.”
    Dante ran a hand through his hair in frustration, great , what the fuck was he going to do ?  The Alpha continued, “We have also heard some chatter about the surviving child of the Alpha trying to make it to Italy.  I don’t know if the Rogues are watching the airports or not.  I think you ' re going to have to find another mode of transportation.”
    “Shit, do you know how far that is from here?   It will take five days or more to make it back to the new compound.  W e have to make it on the ferry to the mainland and then drive all the way to Italy?”  Dante yelled in the phone, and the wolf barked and Brin shook his head again at him.
    “That will give us time to find out what the hell is going on , ” Quin said smoothly.
    “Not a good answer, ” Dante said and hung up the phone only to dial his Sire.
    “Orfeo?” h e said into the phone briskly.  “We have an issue.”
    It took about an hour on the phone with his Sire to make arrangements to drive to the compound.  Dante was pissed; he had a lot of stuff waiting for him back at home for him to do.  His Guards needed his guidance.  By the time he hung up the phone , his irritation w as showing, and he wasn ' t really giving two shits about it.
    “Listen here, you need to shift. We can’t drive all the way to fucking Italy with a wolf in the back of our car; it would be a little conspicuous .  Besides the fact that I would have to pay extra for all the wolf hair that you ' re shedding.”
    Brin stood up with his arms at his sides and his hands fisted and yelled, “Can you cut us some slack here?  She is obviously stressed for some reason, and you are not making this any easier with you r snide ass comments.”
    Dante laughed at the boldness of the human and the n said, “This is no longer your concern.  You can leave; I will take her from here.”
    It would be best to get him the hell out of here so he could have a little one on one time with the wolf.  He was going to lay down the law, and that was the way it was going to be.
    “Sorry, ” Brin grinned at him.  “I ' m going as well . Jax here said I was her mate, so that means I ' m with you until she makes up her mind about what we are going to do.”
    FUCK!   Dante thought and rubbed a hand over his face.  This was totally going to suck.  How the hell had he gotten into this mess ?  The day started out so promising.  Come to England pick up a chick and go back, that was it.  Now it turned into an old-fashioned road trip.

    “Why the hell won't she shift?” Dante yelled and flung an arm at the wolf that was eyeing him like he was a fat , juicy meal. “And why is she looking at me like that? S he is creeping me out!”
    Brin laughed. “Really, you want to know why a w olf is looking at you strangely?   Hmm , let me think, could it possibly be b ecause you are being an asshole and she doesn’t really like you? ”
    Dante snorted. “The feeling is mutual .  S he needs to shift so we can get moving.  We have already been here too long.”
    Jax had remained shifted for the last three hours; Brin was trying to sooth e her, but so far she had not been able to shift.  They were waiting for a call back from Quin.  The Alpha had called several times already and
