uncomfortable emotions that had been gnawing at him before like fleas.
    Rey heard a branch snap and sighed at how obvious Edon was being. He knew he was making so much noise because he wanted Rey to hear him, to know he wasn’t creeping up on him. Although Edon had never been able to sneak up on Rey. Since they had first met they’d played the stalking game many time but Rey always managed to hear or smell Edon before he got close enough to pounce.
    Edon emerged from the trees and walked up the rocks toward him as Rey regarded him with a cool gaze.
    Human form. Dull teeth, no claws, and fingers and thumbs barely made up for those deficiencies. At least males could be strong and muscular. The female of the species was so ridiculously fragile it was a wonder they survived at all. If werewolf females weren’t infertile, they’d never bother with humans again.
    “I have an idea,” Edon said, finding a rock to sit on .
    Rey detected the scent of the girl on Edon’s shirt. The smell of her tears, of fear and arousal mixed together. It was a heady combination.
    So Edon had an idea, as he always did. But Rey knew better than to dismiss his friend. His ideas had helped grow their small pack of two to a strong pack of forty and had secured them a large and expanding territory.
    “Staying as a wolf for this then?”
    Rey nodded, not bothering to shift to answer. He knew it frustrated Edon to have one-sided conversations but was in no mood to care right now.
    “Very well,” Edon said, picking up a stone and moving it from hand to hand.
    “She is the girl we saved from Carcer. Remember her scent?”
    As soon as Edon spoke, the memory crashed into Rey. They had at other times saved humans from werewolves but there was only one girl they both remembered. After they had left her with her people they had moved away into the forest, both pondering the strange feeling that had possessed them. They had stopped two miles away and shifted to human form to talk. Rey had been the first to say it:
    “I want to go back. I want to… protect her.”
    It wasn’t quite right. There was a strange mix of feelings. Desire. To protect. A type of hunger that couldn’t be satiated with food. A feeling he wanted to fight his friend.
    “I feel the same,” Edon had replied.
    Being from a pack that had barely functioned over the years, Rey had little idea of what had happened. Edon, who had been raised by humans, had no idea as well. They had returned to the campsite but the girl and her family were gone, her scent fading on the breeze, vanishing all too quickly. Despite both of them being injured and needing to rest, they had followed it thirty miles until it had disappeared.
    With the girl gone and no way to find her, Rey had forced her to the deep recesses of his mind. He was an Alpha, in supreme control of himself and he lived in the now, not the past. An Alpha didn’t dwell on what had happened and torment himself with what ifs.
    They only spoke of the girl one more time - a year later when they returned to the campsite. There had been plenty of humans there with their nubile teenage daughters but not the one they were looking for. They had left, never to return.
    It had been Edon who suggested they start a pack and work together as Alphas. Rey had taken some convincing, every instinct he possessed telling him a pack only needed a single strong Alpha. But after years wandering the territories together they had come to rely on one another and although it was unspoken, they were far stronger together than apart. And so Arctos Pack was born.
    Edon had been right and together they had carved out their own territory, taking on larger packs and claiming them. They had gained strength so fast females voluntarily left their packs to join Arctos.
    And so it had gone for years, never speaking of the girl, her scent a distant memory. Working together as Alphas and never discussing what the future might hold. Eventually, one would want to find a mate and
