Duke’s shoulders tense and his back straight as he raised his head to look at Shane while he answered his question. My belly flipped back and forth as I watched in horror as the scene in front of me play out.

“You teach them a lesson, Alpha.”

Duke didn’t have to go into detail but the meaning was clear. As his words sank beneath my skin, I held my breath as I waited for what would come next. Shane moved so suddenly, had I blinked I would have missed it.

His touch disappeared from my skin and in a blur of speed, he was instantly in front of Shane. Veins popped out from his large hand as it wrapped around Pan’s face. Pan’s one eye was wide with fear as Shane squeezed tight. With a squeak from Pan, he was hoisted into the air and his feet dangled a couple of feet above the ground.

“That I do. I teach them a painful lesson, Duke. One that others should take seriously,” Shane murmured in warning as he shot Duke an icy glare.
