    “Oh, she and mom worked at the Academy together. Luna Charlotte found her mate at <b>the </b>Academy. He was a student in the year that my mother attended but he failed. When <b>he </b><b>came </b>back, he was eighteen and he realized Charlotte was his mate. It’s crazy how small the <b>world </b>is sometimes, right?”


    “Yeah, crazy,” I say, thinking about the possibility that Christian is my mate.


    If Dorian hadn’t orchestrated the murder of my father, if Christian’s uncle wasn’t an instructor at the Academy, if the council hadn’t sent Christian here to us, I might never have met him.


    But all of those things did happen and now, Christian is here. And no matter what the council thinks or says, I’m not letting them take him away from me.


    Christian


    I cannot believe Enya.


    Well, yes I can. I think what’s more impossible for me to believe is that woman had my body jerking off in an orgasm just because she mentally caressed me. I hadn’t nned to jack off in the shower, but I also hadn’t expected my red–headed ward to barge through my mental blocks while I was in the shower. The first time she brushed against my mind, I’d gone rock hard. The second, I’d exploded against the shower wall.


    I just hope I closed the mind link before she realized what had happened.


    Do minxes have red fur? I’m pretty sure Enya is part minx. Or maybe she’s part witch. I’ve never in my life had so little control over my own body.


    I wash myself off, jerking off a second time because I was still hard after myst orgasm. When I get downstairs, I stop in the kitchen first, making sure that breakfast is sent over to the pack hospital and to Shane’s office. I know Alpha James very well. Even if he’s already eaten, he’ll be happy to eat again. Shane and mom are like the rest of us. They didn’t have a chance to eat.


    ‘Braden,‘ I reach out in the mind link.

    ‘Yes, Alpha?‘


    ‘Where are you?‘


    ‘Checking in with the guards in the cells.‘


    ‘Is Councilman Johnathon interviewing anyone presently?‘


    It takes a moment for him to respond.


    ‘It looks like he’s just finishing up with Violet. Do you need him?‘


    ‘Yes, ask him toe upstairs when he’s done.‘


    I shut that mind link and open the one to Shane.


    ‘Are you busy?‘


    ‘I can step out, what do


    you need?‘

    ‘Nancy was killed with silver. It was injected into her body. Enya wants to search the packhouse. Do you agree?‘


    ‘Hang on, let mee talk to you,’ he says, closing the mind link.


    He arrives just as Councilman Johnathon steps out of the cells.


    “You wanted to see me Alpha?” Councilman Johnathon says.


    “Yes,” I say, looking around. “Let’s go to Braden’s office,” I say, leading him and Shane to the offices.


    When we are all inside, I close the door and tell Councilman Johnathon what I’ve 1 Then, I turn back to Shane.


    “What do you think of searching the rooms?” I ask him again.


    “Can we just focus on the ones we think are involved?” he asks.


    ied.


    “No, for two reasons,” I say immediately. “First, we don’t want them to be able to say we’re targeting them. If we search everyone’s rooms, they can’t say that. Second, we might find someone we didn’t know was involved.”
