Chapter 47: The Rogue Moves Closer

“THEY DID WHAT?!” the rogue Alpha screamed to his Beta. He slammed his fist onto the table, sending several members of his pack scrambling for the shadows in fear, like roaches caught in the light. Anger emanated from him, and he let out a snarl at this news. That hostage situation would have given his pack the leverage they needed to earn respect and possibly rip out chunks of the halfling’s territory. Everything was crumbling around him.

There was disrest through the link, too. No one could challenge him - he could override his voice with the Alpha commands if he wished. That didn’t stop the dissatisfaction from coming through, however, and he felt a coil of anger in his stomach at being challenged. Was this what his father had dealt with before that damn half-vampire took that pack? The strong were meant to rule. If they couldn’t handle that, they weren’t meant to be in any pack.
