side, but Logan couldn’t hear a single thought coming from Rhett, so in his book that made him a keeper.
    All that changed though. What was supposed to be a romantic evening spent making love under the stars turned into a nightmare.
    When Rhett’s friends showed up, they started teasing Logan then pawing at him. But that wasn’t the worst part. No, it was the outlandish thoughts racing through their perverted minds. The images coming from them were so graphic and violent it frightened Logan at first, then anger set in.
    He blew up at Rhett for not defending him. Rhett’s response was that what Logan was thinking was all in his head. No shit! But Logan

    couldn’t explain to Rhett that he had actually heard every evil inner desire his friends had toward him. They fought for a few minutes before Logan took off walking into the woods. He proclaimed he could find his own way home. Of course, as best laid plans go, it didn’t go as he expected. He wasn’t complaining though because it led him to Finn.
    Finn, Finn, Finn.
    He couldn’t stop thinking about the guy. It was almost like a piece of the man was within Logan. Like a small part of Finn resided in his soul. It didn’t make sense, but Logan wasn’t going to question it too much. He deserved a little happiness, and if Finn proved to be the standup guy he acted like the other night then Logan would give the man a chance. Hell, a second and third chance at that.
    It was coming on eleven o’clock when a sharp sting of fear punched him in the gut causing him to double over. Chills broke out across his skin, and his heart started to beat faster. It wasn’t fear for himself but for Finn. How odd? How could he possibly know that? It wasn’t like he heard Finn cry out for help but sensed it. Pain, anger, and terror coursed through his body making him dizzy.
    Logan shouted for Leo, but it was too late. The floor raced up to break his fall.

    The loud crash sent Finn racing down the hall behind his fellow warriors. The front of the house had been demolished, and Warriors of the Dark rushed into the home. A fight broke out instantly. Two Dark Warriors started to tag team him. Everyone always assumed because he was short he was an easy target. Their mistake.
    He took his licks but gave as good as he got. The punch to his left kidney dropped him to his knees. He almost sent up a white flag in surrender, almost. Finn fed off his pain and let his teeth elongate, and

    venom dripped from the tips. He struck so fast his two foes didn’t see it coming until it was too late.
    With their last breath, the dying men mumbled, “Fairy.” Fuck it all! Somehow the Dark Warriors found out about Klaus’s mate being part fairy. Finn, like the other warriors, doubled up his efforts, mowing down the enemy.
    No one was taking Astrid from them, no one. They had taken in a battered and bruised Astrid. He had suffered more than most men could have survived. Just thinking about the pain inflicted on Astrid caused Finn to go crazy with rage, lashing out at anyone stupid enough to come near him, and the Warriors of the Dark weren’t known for their intelligence.
    As the Dark Warriors’ numbers started to dwindle, Finn followed Ben, the leader of the Warriors of the Light, toward the kitchen area.
    The sound of fighting met his ears. Ben and Klaus took off down the hallway, pushing through the closed door. Finn and the other warriors skidded to a halt at what they saw. Ben’s mate, Miles, Astrid, and Miles’s cousin, Trevor, stood in an empty room littered with body parts. It would appear the little guys of the house didn’t need big strong protectors to keep them safe.
    After Ben escorted a distraught Miles to his room and Klaus took Astrid upstairs to rest, Finn and the others started doing damage control on the house. They needed to get safeguards in effect immediately before nightfall. As it was now, they were sitting ducks should they get attacked
