 was not required to speak to Blasius.
    “There are five people buried here, including your…partner,”  Tristan said.
    “Five,” Rhyan said, frowning at nothing in particular. “So only
    four of those other men, those hunters, were killed?”
    “Yes,” Tristan nodded.
    “I counted at least five of them. One of them got away before you  could finish him off,” Rhyan said, jumping to his feet and walking  away from the graves.
    Blasius quickly followed him. “Where are you going?”

    “To tell your leader or alpha or whatever that someone else might  be coming back here with backup,” Rhyan said, not looking back at  them as he hurried back down the hill.

    Chapter Seven
    Now that Ryan knew there might be one of those motherfuckers alive who was responsible for Decker’s death, he found himself a little less torn between staying and attempting another escape.
    His connection to Blasius was one thing, but now that there was a killer out there, who very well might’ve been the one to pull the trigger that blew off the back of Decker’s head,  he was a lot more interested in what being a werewolf could do for him in terms of hunting the man down and killing him.
    James, the alpha with the scarred face, had rubbed his hand over his forehead, most notably over the eyebrow that was half missing. He didn’t look tired by any stretch of the imagination, but he did look like the constant news of hunters coming to kill him and his pack was really starting to annoy him.
    Ryan could hardly blame him. As much as he loved the cat-and-mouse chase involved in a  crime spree, there were those times when he had to stop and wonder when it would all stop.
    “Everything was pretty chaotic that day,” James had said when they had their meeting. “It was nearly impossible for us to know just how many other hunters their leader called in for backup. You sure about this?”
    “I can’t be sure about exactly how many there were,” Ryan was  forced to admit. “But Tristan said you only buried four hunters and  Decker. I counted at least five men shooting at your pack that day.”
    Based only on what Ryan had been able to count, the fact that  there could be more of them out there than what he’d seen was left
    unsaid.

    James was the kind of guy who didn’t need Ryan to spell things
    out for him. He liked that about the other man.
    “Mick?” James had  asked, and another large male stepped closer
    to their group.
    “Yes?”
    “How many men do we have on sentry?”
    Mick told him, and James cursed.
    “Almost all our alphas,” he said.
    Mick nodded. “Including Isaac. Even the vampires have started  helping out by doing night rounds.”
    That made Ryan sit a little straighter in his chair. Vampires? Did  he just say frickin’ vampires?
    James drummed his fingers on the table. “I don’t want a repeat of  what happened the last time. It’s not in their nature, but the omegas  are going to have to learn to defend themselves so that the alphas  won’t have as much to worry about.”
    “But they’re already learning how to use firearms with Isaac and  Jason,” Mick said.
    “That’s not exactly good enough when there aren’t enough guns  for even half the omegas here to use. I don’t want that many firearms  on my land anyway,” James said. “The last thing I want is for one of  the pups to get their hands on them and hurt someone, or themselves.”
    Mick nodded. “I can gather a few omegas up who will be willing to learn. Tristan will probably be the most interested, and with Isaac  to help him, the both of them can better convince the omegas that this  is the way to go.”
    “They don’t need convincing,” James said, lacing his fingers  together. “They’re going to
