Excerpt:
OPENING
OF CHAPTER 4
The phone’s strident ringing woke me up, and I glanced
over at the bedside clock blazing
5:13 A.M. Too damn early for anything.
Tempted to dive back under the covers, I checked the
caller ID: Connell. Crap. The previous night’s events came pouring back: me
turning into a wulfkin outside the full moon, running with the pack all night,
collecting my keys from the woods, and ditching Connell again. On top of that,
I never retrieved the old books for the elixir. Double crap.
I pushed my legs over the edge of the bed, scrunched the
sheet in my fist and answered the call. “Hi.”
“Where are you?” The panic in his voice turned my
stomach.
“At home.”
“What happened to you last night?”
My throat dried up as my mind whirred with excuses. “I
uncovered something in my research and got stuck into it, not realizing it was
past midnight when I checked the clock. I didn’t want to wake you and went
straight home. I’m sorry.”
“I suspected you wouldn’t come. Looks like I was right.”
“Come on, Connell, give me a break. I’m working on
something majorly important. When you’re on a case and spend nights in the office, I
don’t give you shit about it.”
“That’s not what pisses me off. It’s that you never tell
me anything. Send me a message if you’re going to be late or not turn up,
anything to let me know what’s going on. It feels like you’re only staying with
me on until something better comes along.”
“That’s not true. I only want you.”
Silence.
I lowered my head and stared at the dirt beneath my toenails
from the previous night’s run.
“I don’t want to talk about this now,” he said. “We found
two more bodies this morning. The victims were located on the opposite sides of
the city.” He paused. “Why would a wolf bolt across the city after a kill? They
attack in packs, don’t they?”
A shiver rippled down my spine, the possibility of two
more dracwulf kills made me furious. There was no convincing myself the attacks
weren’t related to the others; I felt the truth in my gut. Worse yet, I
wondered whether the dracwulf was simply hungry or territorial, and Sandulf had
to know. I flopped onto the bed and curled into a ball.
When I gave no response, Connell continued. “I need you
to review the reports from the previous attacks today and visit the new scenes
to see if you believe it's the same animal.”
I cringed at the innocent wolves who could lose their
lives over Sandulf’s stupidity.
“Your team can test the evidence and see if it’s the same
predator without me.”
“We have limited testing resources in this country, so we
need your expertise to move things along.”
The way he said “your” sounded full of contempt, and it
pained me to hear him talk like that.
“The chief wants a hunting party issued this weekend,
preferably with Romania’s Animal Research Institute’s approval. He’s already
spoken with your boss, Vasile.”
I climbed up and paced the room, shaking my head. Typical
Vasile to agree to anything the cops asked.
“If I could leave you out of this, I would, but I can’t.
Trust me, I tried.”
“I appreciate that. Where should we meet?”
“Piaţa Square. Half an hour?”
“I can do that.”
He hung up.
A snarl ripped past my throat at the terrible start to
the day. Who could blame Connell for being upset? I’d be livid if he kept
avoiding me.
