Story: Jade

“Apparently we don’t care about your past.What you should be worried about is the group of shifters who left about an hour before you arrived.They are going after the white-haired shifter’s mate and their baby.He’s an abomination and must be destroyed.And if you think this is the end, you’re mistaken.We already have our new leader.”

Xander.Go.

Ghost could tell that Xander needed to see if his family was safe.Xander didn’t hesitate.

The man threw his head back and laughed.At that moment, Noah leapt at the man’s throat and ripped it out.As he lay gurgling on the ground, Noah lifted his huge paw and detached his head from his body.And not quite happy, Noah stepped on the detached head, making sure no amount of regeneration could help him.

“Well, I need a shower to wash that filth off.We should have killed him when we spotted him.”Gunnar shivered.

“He was lying.He doesn’t know me at all.He might have found my name somewhere, but he didn’t know me.There was no recognition in his eyes when he saw me.He was ordered to do it.When he told us about a new leader, that was the truth.”Jade sighed.

“Let’s go.And Gunnar…”

“Yeah?”

“Burn this place to the ground.”

Gunnar nodded as they headed back to the SUVs.Noah shifted back and quickly dressed before they piled into the remaining two SUVs and started home.

“Took offense to what he said, huh?”Jade laughed at Noah’s reaction.

“I wish I could have brought him back from the dead and killed him in a more painful way.”

“Well, it looks like there’s more tracking in our future,” Jade said.

Noah nodded.“But first, let’s get married.”

Jade sputtered as she looked at Noah’s growing smile.“It’s a good idea, baby.You know you want to marry me.”

“I do, but can we get married at the courthouse?I don’t want to plan anything or be the center of attention.”

Noah laughed.“Of course.Tomorrow.”

Jade couldn’t help it.She started giggling but nodded her head, agreeing.

“I love you, baby.”

“I’m so glad I met you.I love you, too.”
