She’s gone to Greece. I’m not welcome there.”
    Lucas winced, “Well your tension is all the better to kill a wolfman with.”
    “I would probably rip him to pieces from fifty yards right now. Who all is coming?”
    Lucas pointed to the two men and Janine, “The elders. Two trips for the other three?”
    He nodded and clenched his jaw at the thought of Janine constantly around him. He would need a picture of Hanna in his mind constantly.
    “Stupid Siren sex vibes. Stupid full moon.” He muttered. His half angel half Siren situation was brutal, unless he kept it under control. He remembered the feeling of Hanna in his arms. The delicious feeling of her lips brushing against his. The soft noises she made.
    “Dude, Jesus.”
    He looked at the faces of the shifters and smiled. They were loosening their collars and trying not to pant.
    “Sorry. Anyway, shall we?” He put a hand out. Everyone touched him. One of the taller men held the picture of a small town. Sam nodded and flashed them their instantly.
    He was back at the lodge and flashing the other members instantly.
    The small town was silent. The great hall with the voices and people surrounding them and the smell of campfire was suddenly gone. Replacing it was silence. His senses became heightened. He looked around watching the shifters turn their noses up to the wind.
    He could smell something but he wasn’t entirely sure it was what they smelled. He could smell Annabelle almost but different.
    He frowned seeing Lorri walking toward them. Her fiery red hair was spiked more than normal giving her a feisty look.
    “What the hell are you two doing here?”
    Sam smiled, trying to ignore the bodies surrounding him tensing.
    Lorri nodded to the elder in front of Sam, “I am sorry for your loss. Ben was like a son to me. We have shared a loss.” Her eyes glowed with an inner fire, “Want to share revenge?” Her plump lip turned up slightly.
    He nodded, “Yes. We want our kill.”
    Lorri nodded, “I will allow you to kill the man responsible. His name is Daniel.” Her eyes lit up even more, glowing with evil, “He’s a vampire.”
    The elder grinned, “Whatever you need that we may offer is at your disposal until such time as we may kill him.”
    She turned to Lucas, “Why are you here?”
    Lucas’s face flushed, “Aleks’s dad.”
    She raised an eyebrow, “What the fuck?”
    He shrugged, “Look you wouldn’t let us come to Alaska so we decided to find our own entertainment. We’ve tracked him.”
    She shook her head, “Dorian gets this one.”
    Sam laughed, “We can catch him and hold him until Dorian gets here.”
    Lorri laughed, “If he was so easily caught do you not think he would have been already.”
    Sam sniffed the air, “I can smell him.”
    Lorri nodded, “I don’t give two shits Sam. Lydia said there is someone here we need. A girl. She’s been missing for eighteen years, human years. Her father is Jonathan.” Her tone dropped on the name.
    Lucas looked sickened, “Jonathan?”
    Lorri nodded.
    Lucas shook his head, “He had all his daughters murdered.”
    Lorri shrugged, “Lydia says she is the girl. She sensed her about forty-eight hours ago. It was like a switch turned on. I have no clue but Lydia wants her now. We don’t have a minute to spare.” She leaned over to Sam and smirked, “You smell nice Sam. Maybe you can convince her to come with us.”
    Sam rolled his eyes, “Whatever.”
    Lorri grinned and pointed across the small downtown square, “It’s this way.”
    The shifters phased instantly and spread out. Any normal human would have lost them in the dark night, but Sam’s exceptional vision made it easy.
    He walked along behind Lorri, the only two still walking on two feet.
    She looked back, “You pissed at me?”
    “Yup.”
    “You know she needs to meet them. She’s alone in the world. They can teach her to tame it down.”
    He felt his rage building, “She isn’t alone. She has me and Roland and the
