about his precious pack. Well what about me? I’m his mate. Shouldn’t I come first?

Logan tensed as Lachlan’s words screamed in his ears. The man was in such great pain that Logan felt like someone was ripping out his heart.

“You okay?” Finn asked as he rubbed Logan’s back in such a loving manner.

The gesture was so small but warmed him from the inside out, and it gave him the strength to quiet the voices to a dull echo. Logan smiled. “I’m better now. Thanks.” He leaned forward and pecked Finn on the cheek.

They followed Garrett down a long hallway that opened up into a large seating area. An enormous fireplace sat positioned between the floor-to-ceiling glass walls. The view was amazing. It was as if the front room was a part of the backyard. There were glass windows everywhere, and Logan sort of felt like he was outside even though he was sitting on a plush leather couch.

The only thing he found disturbing was all the animal heads hanging on the walls. This Garrett man must love to hunt.

“It’s a wolf thing,” Carter said as he sat next to Logan. “They like to kill things and keep trophies of it. Gross if you ask me.”

“So what’s this you said about a wolf causing your friend here problems?” Garrett gestured to Logan as he sat on the couch sitting opposite him.

“To make a long story short,” Finn began, “I just met my mate four days ago. Before we got together he was dating a man by the name of Rhett.”

Logan watched as Garrett’s facial features hardened. His jaw clenched as Finn talked.

“And it would seem this Rhett isn’t taking our mating too well. I had words with him outside Logan’s coffee shop the other day, and just this morning someone ransacked the place. At first we thought it was a robbery, but nothing was taken. The person just destroyed everything inside the building.” Finn’s voice began to rise. “He ruined everything my mate and his best friend had worked hard for.”

Garrett cleared his throat. He then sat forward on the couch. “I can understand your hostility, but how can you be certain it was Rhett? It could have been anyone.”

“Of course you would defend him,” Lachlan accused.

“I’m not defending him, love—” Garrett started to speak.

“Don’t call me that.” Lachlan stood from his chair. “You have no idea what love is.”

“Lachlan, come on bro.” Lawson stood by his brother and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. “I hate to admit it, but Garrett’s right. We have to have definitive proof. You know how pack law goes.”

Lachlan turned his beet-red face toward his brother, and the hard lines marring his face softened. He gave a quick nod of his head and sat back down. Lawson stood behind his brother’s chair, and Logan envied Lachlan that. He never had a brother and always wished he had someone there for him like Lawson was for Lachlan. Granted he had Leo and Finn now, but when he was a small child, he’d have given anything to have a sibling by his side.

“Your brother’s right. We need actual visual proof before I can accuse the man.” Logan could see the glistening in Garrett’s eyes as if the man was on the verge of tears.

“So he’s one of your wolves then?” Finn asked.

“I hate to admit it, but yes. Rhett is a bit of a loner. Keeps to himself and never has much to say.” Garrett shifted his eyes to Logan.

“I wasn’t aware he was dating someone. How long have you been together?”

Logan shrugged. “A little less than a month or so. We didn’t have any problems until the night he took me to the woods. Him and his friends wanted me to do things.” Logan dropped his eyes too ashamed to look at the man.

“Things?” Garrett asked as he waved his hand in front of him gesturing Logan to continue.

“Garrett, my mate is descended from witches. We just found this out.” Finn grabbed his hand and held tight. “He has the gift of empathy, and he can hear other people’s thoughts if the emotions they are feeling are
