you,” Cole told him. Not exactly a ringing endorsement, but it was enough. Not surprisingly, Joseph threw his support behind his son.
    “It is done.” Jacque drew out his phone and dialed the number Elias had given him. It was answered on the first ring.
    Jacque didn’t bother with niceties. “We will meet you tomorrow morning. Nine o’clock. Come alone.” He ended the call and tucked his phone away. Gwen was staring at him with her mouth slightly open. “What?” he demanded.
    She shook her head and rose. “We still have to work on your phone etiquette.” She went up on her toes and kissed him.
    “ Chère , we can work on whatever you want,” he murmured before he deepened the kiss.
    Louis laughed and Armand snorted. Behind Gwen’s back, Jacque held up his middle finger. Now several of the women were trying to smother their giggles as well. Jacque ended the kiss and sighed. “There is no privacy in a pack.”
    Gwen rubbed her nose against his. “You wouldn’t have it any other way.”
    His mate knew him well. He slung his arm around her shoulder. “Let’s eat.”

    Elias tucked his phone away. Reece and Sage were both watching him intently. “You heard?” With their enhanced hearing, he knew there was no way they could have missed Jacque LaForge’s invitation.
    “Just you. Tomorrow morning.” Reece pulled his line out of the water and set his pole on the ground at his feet. “I don’t like it.”
    Elias didn’t much like it either, but he wasn’t the one in control. He cast his line again and watched it drift over the running water. “The alpha wants to talk, wants to know more. I’d do the same in his position. He’s probably already done some research with what little I did tell him.”
    “We should leave.” Sage was already breaking down his rod and packing away his gear. “Now. Tonight.” He was close to full-blown panic.
    “Hey, buddy.” Elias dropped his rod at his feet and went to his nephew. “It’s okay.” He kept his voice low and calm. “There’s nothing for you to worry about.”
    “There’s everything to worry about. This could be a trap.”
    There was enough wolf in Sage that Elias could tell the boy was close to running. It was his natural instinct to either fight or run, and no one wanted a fight with the Salvation Pack. “Give the old man some credit,” he teased. “I’ll keep my guard up.”
    He cupped his hand around the back of Sage’s neck and pulled him forward until their foreheads were touching. Tension vibrated in the air, but Elias didn’t move. He knew his nephew needed the contact. It was a part of his werewolf heritage. Wolves were social creatures, and Elias knew both boys were missing the love and support of their parents.
    He was a poor substitute, but he was doing the best he could.
    Finally, Sage relaxed. Reece was standing behind his brother with both hands on Sage’s shoulders, a physical reminder that Reece would always have his back. Pride exploded inside Elias. They might be teenagers, but Sage and Reece would be formidable men someday.
    Elias raised his head and playfully cuffed Sage on the chin. “Worrying won’t change anything. Trust me.”
    Sage nodded and broke away. “Do we have enough fish to share with Sue and Billy?”
    Elias motioned to the cooler and the more than a dozen nice-size trout they’d caught. “What do you think?”
    “I think we’re heading to Sue’s place.” Sage grinned as he finished packing his belongings. “Do you think she’ll have more cookies?” The hopeful plea made Elias smile. If going to Sue’s helped the boy take his mind off things, Elias was all for it.
    Yeah, he was a saint. It didn’t have anything at all to do with the fact he couldn’t stop thinking about the woman. He snorted and his wolf chuffed.
    “Wouldn’t surprise me at all if she had more cookies.” He turned to Reece. “You realize you’re going to have to shift.” No way could he just wander up to Sue’s
