Midnight Moon: A Paranormal Werewolf Romance (Roadside Angels Motorcycle Club Book 2) Read Online Free PDF

well, he supposed more than one might have been -- but this one had an accident when the packaging around the drugs she was carrying in her intestine broke and she got violently ill.  Between them, they managed to get her off the truck before the cops arrived, but in the ensuing mayhem, one of his own men was severely wounded.  He would have to word it so that the wounds were received after the cops came and shots were fired.   At least he wouldn't have to fudge the ambulance stories. 
     
    After he was done, and the report sent securely, he pulled out the file he had been working on when Tamara first showed up in Rojo Arroyo.  He and the guys in the club had been following Lancaster’s trail for a while, losing it and finding it again, which probably explained the recent increase in the rival gang’s activities against the people in town.  The latest trail led to a sanctuary for wildlife that was not sanctioned by any local or federal authority, and that had only one form of wildlife...wolves.  Lex feared that some of the wolves were shifters, and that the only reason Lancaster had even bothered to make any attempt to “register” the venue was to ward off any questions, should any humans happen upon it and find wolves where they were not expected to be.  He also knew, though, that the information Lancaster gave regarding where they were being housed was incomplete and most likely inaccurate.  By the time anyone bothered to look, he would be long gone.  It was the nature of these things -- no one paid attention as long as nothing happened. 
     
    What Lex couldn’t figure out was why Lancaster was endangering his own species.  Could this be a bid for Primacy?  He must know the other leaders of the Wolf Shifters Prime Council would never allow him to rule as Prime.  Aside from the issue of his bloodline, he had gone rogue, which meant he was now an enemy of the state.  Lex knew that most rogues became that way upon reaching puberty, when the defective gene with which they were born could no longer be contained.  Their nature underwent rapid and debilitating changes, and they were unable to remain as part of the community, because their personalities took a downward spiral and they became a danger not only to themselves but to other members of society.  No one knew why some -- thankfully very few -- wolves were born with what had come to be known as the “rabid gene”, but everyone gave them a wide berth.
     
    Lancaster was a genetic rogue.  If he lived past his hundredth birthday, he would be the first genetic rogue to do so.  And though he was younger than Lex by more than a hundred years, he more than made up for his inexperience with complete and utter ruthlessness.  He didn’t care what he had to do to achieve his goal, whatever it happened to be.  And it seemed to Lex that Lancaster had decided he wanted to be Alpha Prime, which meant Lex had to go.  And if a few humans had to be sacrificed for the rogue’s greater good, he was willing to pay the price.
     
    Lex pulled out the notes he had made on the wolf sanctuaries, the latest of which opened two years after he moved to Rojo Arroyo.  The most worrying part of it was that Lancaster had begun his forays into the local community with his out-of-town wolves when Lex first began receiving word from home that he needed to return.  Which made him wonder if Lancaster had someone on the inside who knew where Lex was.  He had been very careful all his life to keep his location on a need-to-know basis, and only one person on the Prime Council knew where he was at any given moment.  That person would not, could not betray him.  Their blood ties made it impossible, which meant there was something else at work here that Lex couldn’t work out.  Something he needed to figure out soon, before more people were killed.
     
    He reviewed the names on the list in front of him, and decided to call the only other person who might have anything to say
