and Kellan and Owen came into the living room.
    “Looks like we’re going to have to take a rain check on those drinks,” Kellan told Molly. “Erin, would you mind keeping Molly company a little longer?”
    “Sure. What’s the problem?” Erin asked.
    “We need to go looking for these animals,” Owen told her. “The tracks are funny.”
    “Funny how?” Molly asked.
    “We aren’t sure yet,” Kellan said. “They don’t look like regular animal tracks. Could be nothing or it could be an issue.”
    “Are we safe out here?” Molly had only taken one self-defense class and that had been three years ago. “I don’t know how to use a gun or anything.”
    “The coyotes haven’t come up to the house yet,” Owen assured her. “If they do, we have a shotgun and Erin knows how to use it.”
    “You’re going to need range time when this is all over,” Kellan told Molly. “Living out here, you really need to know how to shoot.”
    “I guess.” Molly didn’t know if she’d ever be able to shoot anything, but it was better to know how than to be helpless. “When are you guys going?”
    “Right now,” Kellan said. “We want to get the jump on them before they go out for the night.”
    “Be careful.” Erin got up and kissed Owen goodbye.
    Molly just nodded at Kellan. She didn’t want to kiss him for the first time in front of his friends. She’d wait until he got back. “Be safe.”
    “We will.” He nodded at her before leaving with Owen.

    “You’re taking it slow?” Owen asked, incredulous. “How the hell are you managing that? I jumped Erin as soon as I saw her.”
    “I wanted to,” Kellan admitted. “I had to fight all my instincts not to. She’s a human, and a young one. I don’t want to be wrong and get her hopes up.”
    “You can’t be wrong. If your wolf says she’s your mate, she’s your mate. Your animal knows.”
    “I knew before, and see where that got me.”
    “You didn’t know,” Owen corrected him. “You wanted her to be your mate. That didn’t make it happen. You see the difference?”
    “I don’t know.” Kellan crouched down and looked at the tracks. “These aren’t regular animals.”
    “Way to change the subject.” Owen followed the tracks to the small stream. “It looks like we’re going in the right direction still.”
    “These can’t be our coyotes,” Kellan pointed out. “We only have three in town and two of them are way too old to do this kind of thing. This is a whole pack.”
    “I know. We have to find them to be sure. We haven’t had a problem with out of town shifters in a decade.”
    Kellan thought back. “We did have those flamingos who wouldn’t leave the ice cream shop.”
    Owen laughed. “Those don’t count. They were confused. That was funny as hell to watch, though.”
    “Let’s hope these coyotes are just as funny.”
    The pair shifted down and followed the tracks. The lion and the wolf crossed the stream and had to walk for two more miles before coming to a hill and rocks. Kellan shifted back to human. “They’re just over this ridge.”
    “I know.” Owen looked conflicted. “You think we should go in now? Maybe we should go back and get reinforcements.”
    “We should get eyes on these guys first.” Kellan sniffed. “There has to be at least seven of them. I want to know if we should bring back ten guys or if only two more would do it.”
    “Okay.” They shifted back and got closer. There was music playing softly and the air smelled more and more of drugs the closer they got. Kellan didn’t think these guys were serious at all. When he got to the top of the hill, he could see dirt bikes lined up next to a fire. There were figures around the fire. He counted at least nine. Since they were on bikes instead of motorcycles, he suspected they were all teenagers.
    They got even closer so they could hear what the group was saying. Kellan realized he was wrong. Most of the group were teens, but there was one who
