his throat and glanced in the rearview mirror. Killian wasn’t stupid. He knew David had developed a fascination with the DJ, Justine. He also knew that David slipped out from time to time for trysts with the vampire, and out of respect for his friend’s privacy, Killian opted never to bring it up unless David did. “That Sadie broad is gorgeous, but she’s also a vampire.”
    â€œI get it,” Ivan interjected. “The attraction to someone different and forbidden is hot, and I know lots of wolves that have dallied with a vamp or two. Let’s be honest, hookups like that happen. People just don’t talk about it. You, however, aren’t just anyone.”
    â€œIt’s true,” David replied without looking back. “Your Highness, I—”
    â€œCut that shit out.” Killian gave him a bored look. “I told you not to call me that.”
    â€œRight.” David held up one hand in surrender and shifted his hulking frame in the seat. “Sorry.”
    â€œI’ve heard stories from my grandfather,” Ivan said firmly. “Shit that went down before the treaty was signed. I have to be honest. I’m hoping you’re about done there. It makes me highly uncomfortable to be around them.”
    â€œAh, they’re not so bad.” David turned the wheel and pulled the car into the garage of their building. “Even that Damien guy, the bouncer, is cool. In fact, he cut me in to the pool for the big game next week. I’ve got fifty riding on it. Vamp knows his sports; I’ll give him that. Justine and the girls are cool too, although that Maya chick gives me the creeps more than the others.”
    Killian stilled. He knew exactly why Maya made them uncomfortable, even if they didn’t.
    â€œMaya or that mate of hers, Shane?” Ivan scoffed as the car came to a halt in their parking spot. “Shane is one dangerous sentry. I wouldn’t want to have to fight him, and I get the feeling that if we even look at his woman sideways, he’ll kill someone. Dude knows this city too. I’m sure he could hide a body with no problems.”
    â€œWhat’s the matter?” David teased, shutting off the ignition. “Afraid of a couple vampires? I thought you were a tough guy.”
    â€œI am.” Ivan punched David on the arm in a not-so-playful manner. “Fuck you.”
    â€œI dunno, you kind of sound like a pussy,” David said through a gritty laugh.
    â€œShane isn’t a problem.” Killian got out of the car and slammed the door. He took off his jacket and breathed in the scent of the garage, instinctively searching for anyone or anything that might be lurking. Finding nothing other than the distinct scent of wet cement, he headed for the elevator, Ivan and David right behind him. “Neither is Maya.”
    Ivan and David didn’t respond and their silence spoke volumes. They weren’t convinced that Maya was harmless, and he couldn’t really blame them. Killian knew exactly why Maya made them uncomfortable, but as promised, he’d kept her deadly secret.
    Killian swiped his key card and pushed the button for the penthouse before they rode in the elevator in silence. He sensed his friends’ uneasiness, and even though he wanted to tell them more to put their worries to rest, he knew he couldn’t. He’d promised Olivia and her coven that he would keep Maya’s secret, and Killian always kept his word.
    No matter what.
    If a man didn’t have his honor, he had nothing. His late brother, Horace, had failed to grasp that particular concept and it cost him his life. Killian’s mouth set in a tight line as a cavalcade of unpleasant memories roared to the surface. Horace had been a traitor, and when his plans to overthrow their father were revealed, he’d challenged Killian—and lost.
    When an alpha is challenged, it’s a fight to the death.
    The soft ding of the
