The car pulls up at the back entrance of Cascade and I get down, grabbing my jacket from the car seat.

My brows are furrowed in displeasure. Whatever the reason I was called over so urgently, I’d cancelled the rest of my schedule for it…and so it had better be worth it.

I won’t be a happy man, if it isn’t. And when I’m not happy, bad things happen.

The nightclub is teeming with life at this hour. It’s always the same. A long line of patrons at the front entrance waiting with hopes of getting into the invite–only club.

But Cascade is not a place for just anyone. It caters only to the one percent.

Caleb is waiting outside. He jogs over to meet Blake and 1.

His expression is unpleasant, and while Caleb isn’t the most easy going guy, it still takes quite a lot to get on his nerves this much.

“What happened?” Blake asks.

“Alpha Scott, Marcus’s father attempted a break in with some fighters” Caleb reports, his tone tight with barely withheld fury.

I can already tell it’s taken everything in him not to act on his anger as usual and handle the situation. independently before I arrive, like Caleb is used to, being a rogue for more than half his life.

“They’re demanding to see you.” He adds, “Rudely.”

My brow quirks, my lips pulled into an almost grin, somewhere between sinister and menacing.

Demand…it isn’t a word that is used in the same sentence as my name, not by the living at least.

But it seems the Blue Howl Pack is too hard–headed to catch the hint. People tend to understand better when they are left with no other choice but to do just that

I’m not surprised by the news. Alpha Scott has always been overly protective of his only son. Even now that he was a full grown man and an Alpha in his own right, the old Alpha still coddles him.

It’s no surprise Marcus is still so cowardly.

“They’re armed Blake surmises, glancing over at me. “He must be fuming mad over you shooting Marcus.”

A smirk stretches my lips. “He should be grateful I didn’t aim for his son’s heart.”

Armed? But of course. Not even Blue Howl is stupid enough to come at me unarmed.

I’m the worst kind of enemy. Possessing the strength and skill of a pack wolf, but without the restraints.

If Alpha Scott thinks he can intimidate me, he’s in for a surprise. I’m not the man. Not then… not now.

“Where is he?” I ask,

“The fight den.” Caleb reports.

“Let them in. And lock it down.” I order as I walk past Caleb, heading into the club.

Since Alpha Scott is daring enough to break into my fight den, he’ll find it won’t be that easy to leave.

I didn’t return expecting quiet days in Thorneville. Quite the contrary.

I make my way down to the fight den. The elevator dings as it arrives at the lowest descent, and the doors slide open, revealing the tense atmosphere within the exclusive area.

Alpha Scott’s appearance is the obvious cause. No one expects to see the old fashioned Alpha in a fight den. Unlike his son, Alpha Scott is not a regular.

He is the kind of Alpha who still believes in executing rogues for trespassing. He certainly is not a man to sit through a fighting match between rogue champions and bet money on who wins or loses.

He’s probably still irked by how renowned the rogue underground fighting sport had become amongst our species, providing rogues a chance to integrate into society as respected fight champions, while utilising their primal urges in a controlled environment.

No one would have believed the rogue fight sport would quickly rise to such prominence and become such a thriving business.

A decade ago, I might have frowned on it myself. Now, I’m one of the only two fight den Alphas on the

continent.

Laila had said it right when she said, illegal involvement or not, Blackwood Co needs Mystic Inc more than we will ever need them.

The fight den is already fully booked for the night. There are at least a few dozen Alphas and ranked shifters seated in the audience.

A fight is already underway in the ring, but all eyes move to me as I arrive. The fight doesn’t stop, but it’s no longer the center of attention.

My eyes scan the elaborate seating arrangements in disinterest, and then they finally settle on him. Alpha Scott is sitting at a table on the other end of the room, his gaze already fixed on me.

I’d felt his gaze the very moment the elevator slid open, but I made a point to show he’s not worth my immediate, or full attention.

“It might not be a good idea to antagonize him further,” Blake whispers from behind me.

Alpha Scott’s eyes remain trained on me as I walk over to his table. My strides are relaxed and confident, like I’m not headed to meet the vengeful father of the Alpha I’d put a bullet in only last night.

I’m only a few steps away when Alpha Scott’s hand moves from the table to his jacket.

:

In one swift move, he pulls out his gun and fires a shot in the air.

The loud bang echoes across the den. If we were the center of attention before, now the fight itself has also

come to a stop.

Because Alpha Scott’s lowered the gun and now its aimed straight at me, finger inching closer to the trigger.

He expects me to stop walking. I don’t.

I keep walking till I’m by his table and the gun is just a few inches away from me.

At this proximity, any shots fired would be lethal to me.

“Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t put a hole through your heart right now.” Alpha Scott breaks the silence with a snarl.

“An eye for an eye?” My brow raises. “Can the Blue Howl Pack afford this exchange?”
