Free Greyson - Part 2: An Alpha Billionaire Shifter Romance (The Silver Moon Pack) by Cali MacKay

like Greyson, I’m happy to have him join our pack as well, if that’ll help set your mind at ease. If not, we can go back to fighting for you.”
    Greyson got to his feet, the energy of his shift coursing through him as he held it back, no doubt fueled by his anger, though Thayer stood right there with them. “I came here to keep the peace between our packs, but if you don’t back the fuck off, blood will be spilt.”
    Juno stepped between them, and he swore he’d never seen her more angry. “No. It won’t be spilt . Because if the two of you don’t stop this fucking nonsense, I’m going to hand myself over to Sawyer and the bears, and let them put me out of my damn misery. Am I making myself clear? Now both of you, sit your furry asses down, and do whatever it is we were supposed to be doing here in the first place. Now .”
    Thayer was the first to sit down, clearly trying to stay on Juno’s good side. And yet trying to discuss pack politics now felt absurd.
    Juno linked her hand with his and nestled against his side, sending Thayer a clear message that they were together and had every intention of staying that way, even if she took over the conversation. “I want to know more about what you think I am—since I’ve never heard of it before, and I’m tired of being clueless.”
    Greyson couldn’t blame her for wanting more information—and if Thayer could tell her what she needed to know, then he’d deal with it. She needed to know what she was capable of and how to control it, and though he was happy to help her any way he could, he was taking stabs in the dark, whereas Thayer might actually know how to help her. And if it meant getting Juno the help she needed, then he’d rein in his jealousy, since she was all that mattered.
    Thayer shifted in his seat, his gaze once more fully focused on Juno. “What do you know so far, darling?” When Greyson growled at him, Thayer looked at him in apology. “Juno.”
    “You said they were healers, but…my experiences have been quite different.” When Greyson tensed at her side, Juno must have sensed it, because she didn’t elaborate any further. The last thing they needed was for Thayer to know she was responsible for the deaths of three men.
    And yet, Thayer wasn’t stupid.
    “Atticus, right?” When Juno blanched and Greyson glared at him, Thayer waved away their concerns. “No worries. Your secret’s safe with me.”
    “There is no secret to keep safe, Thayer. Atticus attacked her, and while she was defending herself, he dropped dead. Nothing more.” Even if it was a lie, he wouldn’t give Thayer any ammunition. “Just tell her what you know about the Laighir .”
    Thayer sat back and casually took a long swig of his beer, before propping it on his knee, his focus still entirely too much on Juno. “I don’t know a ton—just the stories we grew up with as kids. But what I do know is that their magic was powerful. They could gather the energy from the air around them into their own body and redirect it with purpose. They could heal the injured or take a life.”
    Juno shook her head, as if trying to comprehend it all. “So how does that tie into your pack? I don’t get it.”
    “The Laighir were somehow tied to the land and needed it to keep them grounded. Honestly, I’m not sure of the details, but it’s my understanding that it was only certain locations. My pack’s territory was one of those locations, which is why the Laighir were linked to our pack. Not really sure why it’s this area and not another. Maybe the ley lines?” Thayer shrugged and took another sip. “Didn’t you know what you are?”
    She looked over at Greyson with worry darkening her eyes as she linked her hand with his. All he wanted was to keep her safe, to give her a life where she didn’t have to constantly stress and worry about things—and he’d been doing a miserable job of it.
    With a shake of her head, she answered Thayer. “No. I didn’t. Or rather,
