I woke up startled and Alice jumped on the opposite side of me. There was awful pounding on metal and it was so loud that it rang all around us.
I stood and swayed on my legs. I was sore and cranky; I didn’t get enough sleep and because of yesterday's activity and that incident I wanted to spend one day in peace, but I guess it’s too much to ask.
And yeah, I was in a bad mood, so whoever the hell was pounding out there was going to die.
I signed to Alice to stay put and stood with my knife in my hand, then headed to the small hatch.
I inhaled and then groaned, annoyed when I smelled Benjamin.
How the fuck did he know about this place? I made sure that he didn’t follow us yesterday.
Yeah, I’m going to kill him this time. I bitched and cursed all the way climbing up, but my mind blanked when I saw him standing next to some tiny teenager.
“Alpha.” He greeted me and averted his eyes down. I don’t know out of respect or embarrassment.
