It’s only a five-minute ride across town in Gray’s Jeep, two of which are spent reading him the summary of the complaint and the other three spent in silence. Gray isn’t much of a talker, which is fine by me because if he forced me to talk, he’d probably pick up on how apprehensive I am about this whole thing. It seems ridiculous for Gray and me to be making a house call like this, as if we’re fucking sheriff’s deputies or something, but there’s no going back now. If this is how Gray wants me to pay penance for my freakout yesterday, I guess I’ll grin and fucking bear it.

We roll into the driveway of a little blue house and climb out of the Jeep, starting up the front walk. Snow crunches under my boots as I glance toward the house, the door swinging open before we’re even halfway up the walk. A big, surly looking fucker appears in the doorway- the one and only Daryl Miller. He doesn’t exactly have a reputation for being warm and fuzzy, so I’m not surprised when we’re greeted with a scowl.

“Alpha Gray, Alpha Chase,” he barks, his eyes shifting between us as we approach. “To what do I owe the pleasure?”

I side-eye Gray, expecting him to take the lead here, but he just gives me a subtle nod, hanging back a step.

Great.

“Uh, we received a report that there was some kind of disturbance here last night,” I say, standing taller and folding my arms over my chest in an attempt to appear authoritative.

“And that deserves the Alpha’s attention?” Daryl chuckles snidely. “Didn’t realize we were so important.”

My wolf instinctively pushes forward in response to his condescending tone, spoiling for a fight, but I shove him back quickly, the effort making the muscle in my jaw tick. “It was escalated because it was the third time this week,” I say flatly, leveling him with a glare to let him know I mean business.

“Nah, that can’t be right,” Daryl grumbles, reaching up to rub the back of his neck. His eyes lift over my shoulder, scanning the surrounding houses. “Who called it in, anyways? People need to mind their own fucking business.”

“Not much privacy in pack life,” Gray shrugs, not at all ruffled by Daryl’s clipped tone. I try to take a page out of his book, drawing a slow breath as I recall the details of the summary from the file.

“Is your son around?” I ask, peering over his shoulder into the house. I don’t know a lot about the Millers, but I do know that Daryl’s son Jase was in a few of my classes at school. He’s a nerd, so we didn’t run in the same circles, but he always seemed like a decent enough guy. His mom was a casualty of the war with the shadow pack, so it’s just the two of them living here now.

“Jase!” Daryl barks, not even sparing a glance over his shoulder as I hear the scuffle of approaching footsteps from inside.
