them, sweetheart. Give me
    twenty minutes. I'll drive over and get ready quickly."
    "Hmmm. Must've been a good night." Ellen purred
    into the phone. "Still aren't dressed and I know you're not in your room. Congratulations on getting laid. You could just
    teleport over, you know."
    He could feel the heat in his cheeks, but he kept his
    tone level. "I don't think they're ready for that. I'll see you in a little bit. Stall for me." He hung up trusting she would take care of everything until he showed.

    The fact that his father was half god, half fae was
    not something you dumped on a new love interest.
    Anthony's magical heritage had been the one point of
    contention between him and Drew. His parents popping in
    and out of his life was another. And 'popping in' was not
    used figuratively.
    A large hand reached out and gripped him firmly at
    the back the neck. "Is there anything you want to tell me,
    mate ?" Silver's low growl raised the fine hairs across Anthony's body.
    He stroked the werewolf's arm, taking away his
    aggression with one gentle touch. "I have to get to work. I
    forgot about a meeting." It was best to avoid any further
    discussions when he had to race to the office. He knew any
    discussion about his heritage would be long, involved, and
    frustrating.
    Still gripping his nape, the large man devoured his
    lips in a powerful kiss. "I'll see you tonight," the alpha said.
    It wasn't a question.
    Silver released him, allowing Anthony the freedom
    to nod in agreement.
    "What is it you do?" Parker asked.
    He was about to answer when one of the other
    wolves piped up. "You're Anthony Carrow," Shara said, her voice rising with excitement. "I saw your picture in one of

    those glossy architectural magazines, I forget which one.
    You designed that new hotel downtown didn't you?"
    Anthony nodded. "I was the chief architect. It was
    one of my favorite projects." He didn't mention he was also
    the owner of the architectural firm. He had amassed a large
    fortune and now spent the time indulging in pet projects.
    Mostly he used his time mentoring younger architects but
    occasionally he got to design a building on his own. The
    hotel was his latest work.
    Silver flashed him a brilliant smile. "Smart and
    beautiful."
    "I've gotta go. I'm already late for a meeting. I'm
    hoping to buy some land for a boutique hotel I've been
    planning."
    Silver gave his cheek a kiss. "Bye, mate ."
    Anthony wasn't sure if the emphasis was for him, or
    the other wolves in the room, so he just smiled and left as if
    the hounds of hell were on his heels. For all he knew they
    were.

    Silver watched his lover walk out the door, satisfied
    he would see the man later.
    "I thought you didn't like pretty boys," Thomas said,

    raising an eyebrow.
    "My boy isn't pretty," Silver smiled smugly, "He's
    beautiful." He stopped smiling as he remembered the
    panicked look in Anthony's eyes. If he saw the other man
    that evening he would be surprised. His gorgeous mate
    looked ready to run.
    That was all right. Silver liked hunting things down.

Chapter Four
    Anthony rushed to the back entrance of the
    building, taking the private elevator to his penthouse suite.
    The building was a mixed use of offices and apartments.
    He had a place on the top floor with the architectural
    offices several floors below. It wouldn't do for his
    employees to see him in his party clothes. They talked
    about him enough without seeing him coming into the
    building wearing leather pants instead of his usual designer
    suit.
    In just a few minutes he was dressed and taking
    another elevator down to the meeting room. As soon as he
    stepped through the doorway he sensed something was
    wrong. The men who stood when he entered put off an
    uneven vibe; a vibe that told him they weren't human.
    There were three of them; all wearing sunglasses,
