Their presences were all concealed. Because of the spell that was always on them, people couldn't sense them easily, not even if they were werewolves…
Felix had been sensed because of the fated mate bond.
Remi had been noticed because he attacked Jared.
But Vivi? Vivi had been sleeping peacefully in her crib. Jared couldn't sense or smell any other presence in the room. And because his attention had been all on Felix and the fox biting him, he had failed to notice this odd piece of furniture.
Until Vivi started crying, that is.
"Waah! Waaah! Waah!"
Startled wails filled the room, as the little pup was suddenly woken up from her sleep. She was too little, naturally she had no idea what was going on, but she instinctively felt that something was wrong. She smelled the blood, and the fear and anxiety in Felix's scent…
As well as the scent of the intruder.
Jared might have been Vivi's biological father, but he was still a stranger to her.
