.Plenty of liquids, guys, and blueberries and blackberries are great for this, if the alpha has any,”Morgan said offhandedly.“Help yourself.I have a freezer full of blackberry pies.”102Lacey Denair“Yum!” Everyone yelled and took off for the kitchen.“Do I want to know what they’re talking about?” Mason asked his love as he nuzzled the silky black hairs and breathed in his mate.“Not now.Just trust us, we know what we’re doing, love.”“Uh huh, that’s what worries me.”* * * *Mason and his wolves, along with the Vargas brothers, moved silently as a team until they got to the mansion.It was a huge, two-story place with a large wraparound porch and columns that stood as sentries on either side of an impressive front door.It was going to be a problem if they needed to get in and out quickly, not knowing where Scooter was in the building.Everyone had their orders, so they all moved off as planned.Mason knew the reputation the Russians had, so he prepared for the worst.He sent twenty wolves around behind the building, while thirty-two spread out in front with nine on each side.A soft bark let everyone know they were ready.Behind them waddled in seven skunks who appeared to wander up to the building, taking their time as they nosed around.Some burrowed into the snow as they picked up grass and morsels here and there.One of the mansion’s guards looked at the small creatures, spoke into a mouthpiece, and then walked back inside.Once close to the foundation, they split up and worked their way to the ventilation systems located on either side of the home.Grates were removed for them after Liam chewed the proper alarm wires in half and they entered the building.It didn’t take long for chaos to ensue when the yelling started and a familiar smell began to emanate from the house.Men came pouring out of the house rubbing at their eyes running as fast as humanly possible, trying to get away from the smell.With the slightly acidic oil from the skunks blinding them, the very human members of theStanley’s Scent103mob made for easy pickings.They were taken down with minimal force and those that did put up a fight soon met their worst nightmares in the form of Dayton and Mason.Dayton, as it turned out, was no slouch when it came to taking care of business.He tore through the men as they exited the back of the large structure, leaving bodies in his wake.When men came through the front door with guns in hand, Mason made short work of them.His claws swiped at arms and hands, causing screaming that would have made the dead shiver.Men who considered themselves dangerous proved no match for the alpha as he took down man after man, grabbing and tearing throats, cutting through sinew and bone alike with claws meant for a prehistoric time and prey.His men simply stayed out of his way and let the alpha’s rage have its sway.When Scooter was located in the basement, the door was ripped off the hinges by an irate mate who couldn’t stand being separated from his other half one more minute.Dayton carried his love out the front door and a noise of joy filled the air.Howls were heard for miles as the victorious wolves and their companions finally had in their possession what they came for.When everyone calmed down, the job of cleanup commenced.The bodies were hauled into the house, and then hoses that had been brought for the purpose were put to work with everything hosed down and cleaned up outside.With as much blood as Mason and Dayton had relieved their targets of, it took a while.Several hours later, Mason had worked through the rage of the dire wolf enough to take control but as it was winter and very cold he didn’t shift.He walked back to his people, looking around at the carnage he himself was responsible for.It wasn’t a pretty sight.After his men had cleaned up and razed the building, leaving no evidence, they had confirmed he had singlehandedly killed twenty-three men when104Lacey Denairdefending what his wolf considered his own.Dayton proved almost as lethal as his alpha.Stanley sat in a truck with his legs hanging out the side, resting.Someone had given the brothers sweats to put on and placed a blanket around him for which he was grateful, but all he kept seeing was the death and destruction his mate had visited upon the men who had taken his best friend and brother.When at last Mason walked hesitantly over to the small man, Stanley opened his arms to show his acceptance for his mate, even though Mason was still in wolf form.What Mason saw was Stanley’s eyes.They were filled with fear even though he tried his best to hide it.Mason stopped short and watched his love, opening his mouth to scent him.The closer he got to Stanley, the stronger the scent became, overriding fear.Stanley couldn’t hide his scent from his mate.Mason turned and walked away, and then he started to run.He moved away from his people with a burst of speed he knew none of them could follow.He heard the voices calling for him to come back, all but the one voice that would have stopped his flight
