Just in case there’s any confusion as to how I feel about that, I bare my teeth and growl low in my throat.

I see my blood-soaked muzzle reflected in Kelley’s shocked eyes and think, Good, now we’re both shocked and appalled.

“Yang, get these three to the medical team,” a deep voice rumbles from the other side of the limo. “We’ll take it from here.”

I glance over to see the man from the video, Bane—Maxim and Diana’s brother—and instantly know we’ve made a terrible mistake.

In the videos Bane came off as earnest, intense, and dangerously charismatic. In person, his energy is oily and cold and the look in his eyes as his attention shifts my way so calculated that it makes me feel like a hunk of meat he’s just chosen at a butcher’s shop.

Like he’s mulling over the best way to cook me and already anticipating a satisfying meal.

“Oh, fuck,” Diana mutters as she begins to shiver in her seat, leaving no doubt my aura-seeing friend is also realizing what deep shit we’re in.

Oh fuck, indeed.

It’s my last thought before a giant hand grabs me from behind, snatching me up my scruff and locking thick fingers over my muzzle to keep my teeth in check.

I’m carried away from the limo as easily as a puppy in a sack, bound for a quick toss off the nearest bridge, while hundreds of Kelley and Bane’s supporters wander away from their camp duties to watch.

But these people aren’t going to kill me.

Whatever they have planned is going to be worse than that.

Much, much worse.
