his voice. “It’s the whole becoming a snake shifter like Finn that has me freaked out.” He felt like he could trust these men, and he really needed to discuss it with other people who had made the choice to become a paranormal being.

“Trevor and I got turned kind of against our will.” Miles explained quickly about how Trevor was bitten by a Dark Warrior when a man named Malcolm kidnapped Miles. And how Miles took his own life to save Ben and his fellow warriors. But Astrid was able to keep Miles alive until Ben could turn him.

“Shit,” Logan said without thinking. It was fucked up what happened to Miles and Trevor, but in their cases it all worked out for the best. Plus, Logan should be grateful that he had the choice to become a shifter or not.

“I know, right?” Miles smiled across the table at him.

“But you don’t have to turn if you don’t want to. The rules don’t apply to witches.” All eyes turned to Astrid. Up until then the witch had sat quietly. “What?”

“What do you mean the rules don’t apply to Logan?” Miles asked.

“He’s only part witch. Doesn’t he need to become something else to make him stronger and harder to kill?”

“No.” Astrid shook his head, causing the white-blond strands to fly around his head. “Klaus was telling me about Logan.” The witch pointed a finger at him. “As long as he has witch’s blood coursing through him, all he has to do is train. His physical attributes will strengthen in time.” Astrid gave them a look like they were all crazy.

“Being a witch trumps everything. We’re like at the top of the food chain.”

The three men before him started a playful banter back and forth.

But Logan couldn’t hear what they were saying. All he could think about was what Astrid just said to him. He didn’t have to become a snake. He was relieved. Not that being a shifter was bad thing, but it was awesome news to know he had a choice. He would have done it for Finn, but as luck turned out he didn’t need to.

“I’m sorry to interrupt,” Logan’s voice rose to be heard over the bickering trio. “But let me get this straight. Even though I’m not a full-fledged witch, I’ll still be as strong? I won’t weaken Finn by not becoming a snake shifter?” He had to make sure he had his facts straight.

“No. When you mated Finn it solidified that connection. So if you train and master your skills, you’ll be fine. Being mated to Finn makes you immortal, but also being part witch did, as well. You probably would have noticed as you got older that you weren’t aging like everyone else. So it’s a good thing Finn found you in the woods that night.” Astrid giggled. “Fate never gets it wrong.”

“Dude, you’ve been hanging around your mate too much.” Trevor blew out an exaggerated breath. “You’re soaking up all his useless knowledge.”

“Hey, it’s not useless.” Astrid pouted. “I just helped out Logan.”

“I know, little man.” Trevor one-arm hugged Astrid. “I’m just teasing you. But for reals, you sound just like Klaus. That guy is a fountain of information.”

“So, Logan, it this good or bad news?” Miles asked him.

“Good. I mean I’d have turned for Finn, but if I don’t have to, I’d rather not. If it doesn’t hurt my mate, then I’m good with staying just like this.” He winked over at Astrid. “And according to my brethren over there. I’m at the top of the food chain.”

Miles and Trevor started to razz him, and Logan loved it. He always wanted a family, and being in this house with all these different men was like having one huge extended family.

The sound of a cell phone buzzing brought him out of his thoughts.

“Oh, sorry, guys, it’s me.” Leo stood up. “I’ll take it out there.”

Logan watched Leo leave the kitchen. He still felt guilty for the changes that would come to his friend’s life. But he was happy Leo hadn’t bailed on him. It would have been so easy for Leo to do, and Logan couldn’t have blamed him if he did. This new life of theirs would take some getting used to.

A few minutes had passed, and Leo still hadn’t come back into the kitchen.
