someone who was giving another Alpha information.  Who did Benny narrow it down to?” Marcus asked as he leaned back in his chair.
    “ Well Flynn Mitchell and…”
    “ Flynn? Come on, he is my Beta and best friend.  We grew up together,” Marcus growled.
    “ Look, Marcus, they are trying to help you out.  So listen to Jewel,” Ret expressed his opinion.  He didn’t care if Marcus was an Alpha and a friend. If he ever spoke to his mate like that again, he would come across the table.
    Jewel placed her hand on Ret ’s lap, calming him, as she waited for the testosterone to calm down before she gave the rest of the names.  She knew it had to be hard to hear that you had a traitor in your pack and one of your most trusted people.  “Janet Milligan, Orion Holder, and Jon Michaels are the four that Benny has narrowed it down to.”  Jewel leaned back in her chair as she watched Marcus process that information.

    Flynn and Lex stood outside the door as the two Alphas spoke to each other.  “ What is this meeting about?” Flynn asked Lex.
    “ I don’t know.  Ret said he wanted to have dinner with the Alpha before he left town again.”  Lex checked his watch as he lied to the Beta.  He hated lying to him too.  He knew Flynn wasn't the traitor.  Flynn was old school.
    “ Dinner?  Yeah right.”  Flynn shook his head at the wolf.  He knew Marcus would tell him once they left the hotel. 

Chapter Nine
     
     
    Vander had to hold himself up by leaning against the wall as the water pounded onto his body.  It felt good but he was exhausted and didn’t know if he would be able to walk to the couch.  His belly was full and being sleep deprived had caught up with him.  He knew he was about to fall down when he heard the shower door open.  Kane caught him before he could fall to the ground.  Vander’s eyes were closing quickly.  The sleep that he tried to drive past all week had finally showed up and taken possession of his body.  Kane turned the shower off, grabbed a towel off the rack, and wrapped it around Vander, his breathing had become shallow, and his body became limp as Kane carried him to his bed.  He dried him off the rest of way with the towel then covered him up.  Vander tried to say something as his eyelids flipped up and down but sleep claimed him.
    Kane sat beside the bed watching Vander as he slept.  He was beautiful even in his sleep , Kane thought.  He pushed the hair away from his forehead as his mate slept in his bed.  He could smell his scent and it was wonderful to him.  Vander’s scent was a musky smell.  Kane could smell the shampoo he used as he leaned over and inhaled.  Kane knew he should leave, but he wanted to watch his mate as long as he could.  He didn’t know if he would ever get this opportunity again.

    “ Do you have any ideas on who it is?” Ret asked Marcus.
    “ Well, I don’t think it is Flynn or Janet.  I just know it isn’t Flynn and Janet, they weren’t told about the last two pieces of property that I was going to purchase.  I only told Jon and Orion.  I just don’t know.  I can’t believe it would be them.  I mean, we grew up together, all of us.  Orion and Jon have been with me for a long time.  I trusted them.  How…”
    Jewel hated watching Marcus decide on who the traitor is in his pack .  “Marcus, you have narrowed it down to two people now.  We will do some checking and we will find out who it is.”
    “ I will do some checking myself.”  Marcus looked like he was going to rip someone apart.  Jewel knew her mate wasn’t going to like this, but she needed Marcus calm.  Jewel placed her hand over Marcus's hand.  “Your pack needs you calm now, Marcus.  I will find out who did this to you.  Trust me,” she whispered.
    Marcus felt Jewel ’s warmth as her hand caressed his.  He heard the growl and knew Jewel was in trouble. 
    “ Get your hand off him, mate,” Ret growled loudly. 
    Marcus looked up
