Chapter 0271


    Dane


    Damien and I waited at the gates. It was still dark outside though the sun would be rising shortly. I


    was curious and cautious about this Abraxas guy. He had agreed toe here far too easily and


    that wasn’t necessarily a good thing.


    The call with Mallory was even stranger. The guy didn’t speak, yet Mallory told him to ask a


    question, specifically to Neah and I still had no idea why. The line went dead just as quickly and a


    sleepy Neah stared at me as if I had just pranked her.


    The carse to a stop on the other side of the gates. us is the first to exit the car. Shortly


    followed by an angry Eric.


    “I told you to not stick a fucking gun in her face!” Eric yells as he turns towards the vehicle behind


    them.


    “You can never be too careful.” An unfamiliar voice retorts. Though his tone appeared to be


    emotionless. “And I warned all of you, I didn’t want any surprises. You can chill now, she is still


    alive!"


    “It’s okay Eric. It was my fault.” Mallory mutters. “He hates ir so I had to tell him about Neah. I


    didn’t want him to identally shoot her because they look alike.”


    ‘What the hell happened out there?’ Aero asks me


    ‘That’s what I’m trying to find out.’ I mumble back


    The four of them move towards us. Eric and Mallory walk behind Abraxas, while us keeps his


    presence close to him. The guy didn’t seem to care. He strolled forward like he was on an evening


    walk. A bag slung over his shoulder, his hands shoved in his denim pockets.


    Hees to a stop in front of the gates, his hazel eyes locking with mine. “Dane.”


    “People outside my pack refer to me as Alpha.”


    “Yeah, ain’t doing that. Not when you let scum in your pack.” His eyes momentarily move to Damien


    and he spits on the ground. If there hadn’t been gates between us, Damien would be wringing his


    neck.


    “Show some fucking respect.” Damien growls.


    “Respect is earned.” Abraxas snarls back. “And I have no respect for your kind, Rogue.”


    “I’m not a Rogue!” Damien''s nostrils re as he grips the bars of the gate.


    “But you were. And you still feel the pull.” Abraxas grins at him. “How long before you are pushed


    over the edge, Damien? A week? A couple of months. Either way, I’m happy to end your miserable


    life.”


    “You told him?” Damien demands as he res at Mallory.


    “No, I swear.” Mallory mutters. “It’s like I said, he just knows things.”


    ‘A mental case by the sounds of it.’ Aero rumbles


    Abraxas stares at me but points to Eric, “Why don’t you tell him, Blondie!”


    “My name is Eric!” He snaps back. Eric moves forward, frowning, “The guy ims he can tell the


    difference between Lycans and Rogues. Calls himself a Hunter.”

    “It’s not a im, Blondie. It’s a fact. A centuries old fact.”


    “Whatever, just keep away from my mate or I will put a bullet through you.”


    Abraxasughs like it''s a challenge. “Now are you going to let me in? You lot did ask me toe


    here.”


    “Why did you agree so easily?” I press


    “She made me a deal.” He points to Mallory. “And if that deal doesn’t hold, I’m going to go on my


    own little killing spree. Starting with her.”


    Mallory puffs her cheeks out. Whatever she had said, she had done it to protect herself. I don’t


    me her for that. But the decision isn’t up to her.


    “I’m the only one around here who gets to make deals.” I growl


    "Is that right?" He mocks me


    “He can tell the difference.” Mallory blurts. “I said he could kill the bad Lycans. It will be easier than


    growing blood of wolfsbane. Word won’t be able to get out.”


    “Is that true?”


    “It’s what makes me a Hunter.”


    “As long as I get to kill something, I’m happy. So it’s your choice Dane.” Abraxas smirks at me. His


    lips peeling back over his teeth into a grin
