him cry out in triumph, spurting jets of cum into her welcoming body. With a loud keen, she came too, her pussy clamped so hard around him he didn’t dare move.
     

Chapter Seven
     
     
    Sunny was lost in sensation, only vaguely aware of them drying her off and tucking her into bed. She drifted for a while, the low rumble of voices carrying to her through the house. Gradually, she woke up and became aware of the enormity of what had happened.
    Claimed. Twice over. Once by a lion, once by a wolf. Her soul shrank a bit at the knowledge, cringed in fear. She’d never keep her independence, her freedom, now. She was all too aware of what the bond meant. She would never be able to leave them. Never be able to free herself if they discovered her secret and hoped to exploit it. She hoped to God she never had daughters. The best she could hope for was to find her sister and get her to safety.
    She stood slowly. Testing used and sore muscles. Her cat stretched in languid satisfaction. What the hell did it know? She dressed with precise movements, strapping on weapons, pulling on boots. The sense of being on borrowed time rode her hard. Her sister was in danger. The feeling was so strong, it was easy to ignore the blinking lights on the Christmas tree as she passed by the living room. She hovered outside the kitchen door a moment, eavesdropping, before entering.
    “I say she goes. Never seen a better tracker,” Asa said.
    “No way,” Carlos and Declan said in unison.
    She moved enough to get a glimpse inside, saw Asa roll his eyes. “You’re only protesting ’cause you claimed her. Neither one of you is thinking straight. She’s a tactical advantage.”
    Even though they didn’t know what she was, didn’t know she was a shifter, the comment made her blood run cold. She stepped inside.
    “What’s going on?”
    Carlos and Declan gave her the reserved look she’d come to know meant they were holding back information. Thankfully, Asa didn’t feel the same reticence about sharing.
    “Carlos has someone inside. We’re going in tonight.”
    Finally. It was difficult to hide her excitement. “I’m going too.” Her voice shook a bit, but if anyone noticed, they didn’t say anything.
    Carlos opened his mouth, and she knew it was to protest. She held her hand up, glared at both males. “Forget it. My sister is in there. I’m going.”
    Declan and Asa weren’t surprised by her declaration, so she knew Carlos had filled them in. She wasn’t happy about that, but at least it saved time explaining.
    “You don’t know that for sure,” Declan said.
    He had to be as eager to go inside and look for his brother as she was her sister. Was he trying to spare them both the disappointment if they didn’t find their siblings? Spare her the pain if Jaz wasn’t there?
    But she was. Sunny couldn’t explain it, but she knew, and she knew time was running out. “She’s there. And I’m going to get her out,” she said stubbornly.
    Carlos cursed under his breath and paced. “You stay right with us. No going off on your own. And you follow orders. If we say get out, you do it.”
    She nodded her acquiescence, but she had no intention of complying.
    Hours later, she was anxious to get moving. It was almost three a.m., and she was cramped from hours of waiting to move inside the fence. They’d found the least patrolled area and cut away a portion of chain-link big enough to squeeze through in human form.
    She exhaled a sigh of relief when Carlos gave the signal to move. She was operating purely on instinct now. They entered a back door, and she ignored a hiss when she broke away from them. Minutes later she found a door down a short hallway and rested her palm on it a moment before twisting the knob.
    It was locked, but easy to pick. It opened to reveal deep stairs going down. This was where the Society kept its prisoners. She couldn’t explain the leap in logic other than her reaction to the scents wafting up at her. Terror and
