The Touch of Her Hands [The Wind River Pack 3] (Siren Publishing Classic) by Missy Martine Page B

turned to glare at him, and Zander stopped laughing. “He witnessed her healing his buddy’s broken leg himself. Said she laid her hands on his leg and a few minutes later the bone had healed. He thinks she might be able to cure this illness the same way.”
    Zander frowned. “What do you think?”
    “I’ve no reason to doubt a member of my pack. If he says he saw her do it, then I believe him. And honestly, right now I’m looking for a miracle. The pups are getting weaker daily.”
    Zander nodded and reached for the phone. “Then let’s get your boy some help.”
    “What can you do?”
    “I have contacts all over the world, Alpha Remus.”
    “Please, call me Remus.”
    “Where’s he heading, Remus?”
    “They’re trying to get to the airport in Cartagena. He says they’re a day’s travel away because of the condition of the roads. From the airport, they have a flight to Miami and then from there, another flight home.”
    “I can contact a pride in Cartagena that could send someone to make sure he makes the plane. He’d just have to stay out of trouble on the flight.”
    “What about after they land in Miami?”
    “The National Council has a couple of planes they use for emergencies. I can have one of them there within six hours and we’ll fly them home privately.”
    “The council will let you use their plane for us?”
    “Absolutely. Especially if she’s the real deal. There are pups in other packs that are suffering. If she can help, she’s a national treasure.”
    Remus growled softly. “Don’t let them get too accustomed to the idea they have a treasure.”
    “Why?”
    “She’s Zack’s mate.”
    “Okay, that shouldn’t be a problem. You know we never interfere in a mating.” He started dialing the phone. “Let’s concentrate on getting her back here, and we’ll iron out the rest later.”

Chapter 6
     
    Zack looked around the Rafael Nunez International Airport and wanted to growl. Hundreds of people paraded up and down the long open area leading to multiple airline check-in sites. The signs above directed passengers to baggage claim, car rentals, and washrooms both in Spanish and English. There was no way to know who might be a problem for them. He glanced down at Aurelia and motioned for her to follow him.
    He shifted his backpack from one shoulder to the other and made his way toward the United Airline counter. He’d only taken two steps when a large man stepped in front of him. He had to be near seven feet tall and weigh close to four hundred pounds. His long dark hair framed a craggy face with startling blue eyes. The glass doors whooshed shut behind them, cutting off the last breath of outside air.
    The large man grinned, his teeth unusually long and sharp. “Easy, puppy. My name is Alejandro, and your alpha Remus sent me to help you.”
    Zack sniffed the air. “What are you?”
    Alejandro’s smile widened. “I’m a jaguar, puppy.” He glanced at Aurelia. “This your lady?”
    Zack growled softly and pulled her to his side.
    “Relax! I’m not a mate poacher. I just wanna make sure I’m watching after the right lady. You get your tickets yet?”
    Zack shook his head. “We just got here. Had a little car trouble.”
    Aurelia pulled on Zack’s arm until he bent down. “Can we trust him?” she whispered.
    “Yeah, love. He’s a shifter. He wouldn’t have my alpha’s name unless it was for real.”
    Alejandro smiled. “Let’s get your tickets so we can get to a less public place.”
    Zack nodded and led the way to the end of the line, grimacing when the woman in front of him turned and stepped away, running over his foot with her luggage wheel. He narrowed his eyes when Alejandro chuckled.
    “What’s your name, pretty lady?” asked Alejandro.
    Aurelia glanced at Zack when he growled again and sighed. “I’m Aur…I mean, Carolyn Williams.”
    “Get your passport out, love.” Zack pulled her closer.
    Alejandro snorted. “Sure it is. Nice to meet you,
