followed. Jonah took a few steps forward crossing the room. He knelt, inhaling the scent of the blood. Then turned to face the others, his face didn’t reveal his thoughts. He stared at Ryken and Luken for a solid moment before returning his gaze to Brie.
    “Don’t do that,” she snapped. “Don’t talk to each other as if I’m not here. I can fucking feel when you talk to each other with that damn wolf telepathy.” Her hands sprung to her hips. “I’m starting to get a little pissed off about it, too. Now tell me what you just told those two.” She flipped her hand in the direction of both Ryken and Luken.
    Jonah’s chest enlarged as he took in a big gulp of air.
    “It’s not Sebastian’s.”
    She arched a brow. “Then whose is it?”
    Jonah hiked his shoulders. Glaring at her, he said, “I’m not a bloodhound, Brie.”
    “No,” her voice raised an octave as she agreed with him, “You’re not a bloodhound. You’re a werewolf, Jonah, a werewolf with an amazing sense of smell. So stop treating me like I’m an idiot and tell me what the hell you’re thinking and what everyone else in this room apparently knows but me.”
    He sighed. “Smells like animal blood, but I don’t know for sure.”
    “Animal blood?” she questioned. “Like a rabbit?”
    He nodded.
    “Why would Sebastian hunt, Jonah?” Her gaze was tight as she asked, “Why would he want to kill?”
    He shook his head. “I don’t know, Brie.”
    She pressed her lips together and felt her heart retreat a little in her chest. She didn’t like that Sebastian was hurting, physically or emotionally. He was a good man, and knowing that he was in a dark place tore at her heart. Wanting to do something, anything for Sebastian, she turned away from Jonah, nibbling her bottom lip with worry, her shoulders slouched forward.
    Exhaling hard, she turned to face Ryken and Luken, wolf brothers she had come to like spending time with. They were now an extension of her family, and she hated what Sebastian had just done to them. She might not be able to ease Sebastian’s pain or discover what was going on with him, but she could certainly make peace again with his family.
    “I’m sorry, guys. I can’t even imagine how hard things are for Sebastian right now, but I know he didn’t mean to lash out at you.”
    Ryken and Luken smiled warmly at her. Ryken explained, “You’ve got nothing to apologize for, Brie. We know Sebastian went through hell without you. I was hoping that joking around with him would be easier than coming in here, guns blazing with bad news. I should have expected what happened.”
    Jonah stepped forward. “What bad news?”
    Luken glanced over at Ryken. “We did as Sebastian asked. We started tracking down what pack Mason Levi belonged to, and we found them.”
    Ryken took over. “They were not pleased to see us, but once we explained Mason’s condition, their attitudes changed. Strangely, they already knew he was infected.”
    Brie spoke up. “But they did nothing about it?”
    “They said they couldn’t track him down to subdue him, sent their best trackers after him,” Luken said.
    Ryken added, “They lost his scent and don’t know where he is.”
    “What is he?” Jonah questioned.
    Ryken and Luken exchanged a curious glance, both saying, “He’s an anomaly.”
    “What does that mean?” Brie asked wearily.
    “He’s part panther and wolf.”
    “Excuse me?” Jonah questioned, his brows raised. “That’s not possible. The two different DNA strands wouldn’t mix. It would be like a dog trying to mate with a cat. It doesn’t work.”
    “But it did this time,” Luken stated matter-of-factly.
    “He was already an outcast to his people. They didn’t want him to begin with. When he showed up as an infected were-whatever, they wanted him gone for good,” Ryken added, glancing over at his brother.
    “The alpha of his pack said they planned to put Mason down. Had wanted to since his birth, but his parents
