go.” He strode down the hall and opened a wall panel, similar to the one at the hospital. They filed into a different room; Tyrese could tell this was where private meetings were held. He waited until all five men had filed in, plus Boggs and the woman, before he took up his post against the wall.
    “Now tell them,” the female snarled near Boggs face. That was not a good sign.
    Boggs swallowed hard. “I said all I know is they are coming, but they didn’t tell me when or where. They said I would know when they arrived and I should be ready for the attack.”
    “So they plan to come here and attack the Patron? Is that it?” Leon asked with a thread of disbelief. “Obviously, they haven’t heard about the last group who tried that. I wasn’t there, but I heard wolves were exploding all over the place from his anger.”
    “Exploding? Like an explosion?” Boggs asked, looking horrified.
    “Dude, this is the Patron we’re talking about, the head Alpha. How do you think he got to be top dog? He’s the baddest fucker out there. Has complete control over his energy and channels it like...let’s just say you don’t want him directing it at you. I wanted no part of a direct attack before, and I don’t want one now,” Leon said, shaking his head and leaning back in his chair.
    “And kill the idea I threw out earlier about messing with his pups,” the female said, staring at Boggs. “That was a test to see how ruthless you were.” She glanced at Tyrese. “We want no part of messing with his litter. Make sure your people understand that.”
    Tyrese met her stare and then nodded.
    Boggs looked at the faces of the people in the room, frowning. “So what do you plan to do?”
    Leon leaned back in his chair, looked at Boggs and then looked at Tyrese. “We’ve done all we’re going to do. We want a full-blood Alpha. As far as the rest, your people coming into West Virginia…” he snorted. “You’re on your own.”
     

     

Chapter 3
     
    The next morning Rose walked into the main nursery and stared at Adam and Jackie. The two babies were fast asleep. “They look like little angels,” she said to Jasmine, who stood near the cribs with David in her arms.
    “Yeah,” Jasmine scoffed. “Asleep, even demons look like angels.”
    Rose laughed and walked to Renee’s crib. “When’s Aunt Renee and Mandy coming?”
    Jasmine thought of her last conversation with her sister while she changed David’s diaper and dressed him in a green and white short set. “In a month I think, during one of her school breaks. I can’t remember which one.” She laid David in his crib while watching Rose from the corner of her eye. The petite female had pulled her jet black hair back into a bun and wore a cute short-sleeved cinnamon color dress that made her already large eyes appear larger. Jasmine had fallen in love with the feisty Latina when her son Tyrese introduced her to the young girl months ago. He’d rescued Rose and her younger brother Thorne from some rogues who had killed their mom. Things were a little crazy for a while, both twins thought she was their mate, and Rose wasn’t sure either. They finally got things settled, with Tyrone being mated to his Rose. Jasmine was ecstatic her son had found such a sweet, loving girl and thought of Rose as her daughter. Right now, something was on her daughter-in-law’s mind. Jasmine waited, she knew it wouldn’t take long.
    A few minutes later, Rose released a long sigh. Jasmine looked up at her. “What’s the matter?”
    Rose turned away, blinking fast as her shoulders slumped forward. Her demeanor concerned Jasmine. She rushed to Rose and held her face between her palms. “Rose, what’s wrong? Is it Rone?”
    Rose shook her head and looked off.
    Jasmine relaxed a bit since it wasn’t her son. “Is it Thorne? Your sister?”
    “No.” Rose inhaled and looked at Jasmine. “I’m being silly. I know it, but I can’t get my stomach to settle down. I’m so
