Something more befitting? That sounded so strange to Darius's ears, but he couldn't trust the smile on Nicholai's face to be kind. In fact, it even looked like he was hoping to put an end to that spider queen. It's just that… it wouldn't make sense if that spider queen was such a good ally—or what Nicholai used to say, service provider.
At this look, Darius only licked at the mate's mouth and squirmed on where he lay. As if creating a place for him to lay down, Darius used his big werewolf body to flatten the grass underneath him. Then, he turned into his human form.
The cold night quickly kissed his skin, but he enjoyed feeling his human form and human size again. Even if he was a bit disappointed at what happened with Roddy and his mother, he could only look away and think that they were those that had chosen the other side. Since Ansel was onto them, that might even mean that the shore wolves had subdued the others—if not killed all of them just the same.
