Man to Man [Wolf Creek Pack 3] (Siren Publishing Classic ManLove) by Stormy Glenn Page B

Donovan said. “You know that.”
    “I do. That’s why I called you.” Reece turned for a moment and glanced up the stairs. “But first I have someone I want you to meet.” Reece turned and motioned for the man at the top of the stairs to come down, holding his finger to his lips, indicating for the man to be quiet.
    As the little man tore down the stairs, Donovan had just a moment to catch a glimpse of curly honey-blond hair and wide green eyes before the man threw himself into Reece’s arms. The look on Reece’s face was priceless. He seemed a little stunned.
    Then little man whispered something in Reece’s ear that made him laugh. It was a good look on the large alpha.
    “Sorry, baby,” Reece said to the man in his arms. “But you know how it is—you find a traitor in your pack, you question the traitor, you knock the traitor around a little,” Reece replied as he wrapped his arms around the man. “This isn’t something that happens on a quick time schedule. Interrogation takes time.”
    The small man whispered something to Reece again then turned to face them all with a welcoming smile on his face. “Nate,” he said, nodding at him.
    “Keeley,” Nate said, nodding at him. Nate reached out his hand, grabbing the one that Keeley held out to him. A smile broke out over his face. “Ooh, nice.”
    Donovan’s head ping-ponged back and forth between the two men. It was obvious from the look that passed between them that two men knew each other pretty damn well. Donovan vaguely remembered Keeley from when they had rescued everyone from the Teacher, but he had never gotten to know the man well.
    And until now, he had no idea that Keeley had made his way to the Shasta Pack. From the way Reece was staring down at the little man, Donovan knew he had missed a lot. It was obvious that Reece adored the man.
    Keeley grinned. “I know.”
    “Details?” Nate asked, grinning back at him.
    Keeley tilted his head back to look up at Reece. “Do you need me right now?”
    “No, why?” Reece asked in obvious confusion.
    “Nate and I need to talk.”
    “About what?”
    Keeley and Nate both giggled. “You.”
    Donovan blinked in confusion as he watched Keeley and Nate go up the stairs and race down the walkway to the bedroom, shutting the door quietly behind them. What just happened here?
    He realized that Reece was feeling the same way when the alpha turned back to look at Joe in bewilderment. “What just happened here?”
    Joe chuckled. “Nate happened.”
    Donovan nodded rapidly. That pretty much explained it all right there. Nate might be only five foot seven, but he was a force to be reckoned with. As big as Donovan was, even he knew not to cross Nate. He liked his balls right where they were.
    Reece raised an eyebrow at him in query. “And that means what exactly?”
    “Nate is a sempath. A sensitive emotion empath,” Joe replied. “He can feel other people’s emotions by touching them.” He looked up to the second-floor bedroom door, smiling. “Apparently, he feels the need to talk to Keeley about what he felt when he touched him.”
    “That’s why he was so insistent that Nate be here? Because he’s an emotion empath?”
    “Maybe, but I think it’s more because Nate is also a human lie detector. He can tell if someone is lying or not,” Joe said. “A slight side effect of being an emotion empath.”
    “Slight side effect?” Reece choked out.
    Donovan couldn’t help grin at the astonishment that crossed Reece’s face. The man had no idea what he had just walked into.
    “I’d say being a human lie detector is more than slight.”
    Joe burst out laughing. “You should try being mated to him. I can’t get anything past the little bugger.”
    “Dude,” Devlin exclaimed. “You are so totally screwed.”
    Joe just shrugged his shoulders. “Not really. Knowing I can’t lie to Nate, I don’t even try. If I have something I can’t tell him, I just tell him I can’t share, and he leaves it
