CHAPTER SIXTEEN – HUDSON

HUDSON WAS going to kill something. Or someone. When he’d gotten the call Kit was going out, his stomach had dropped, and he’d immediately grabbed Connie so they could get to that damn club. Now that they knew who Kit was to them, of course they’d be there.

They’d arrived and walked into chaos. Gods help him if a fucking hunter crossed his path right then, he’d charbroil them and wouldn’t think twice about it.

Someone had targeted Kit, and indirectly, Leo, since Leo had been basically acting as a bodyguard. Leo had been unable to use his full strength during the fight since he was surrounded by the fucking humans, and things had gone to shit quickly.

Speaking of humans, Hudson hadn’t smelled any hunters at the club, but there had definitely been paranormals there, including felines. Fucking cats seemed to be everywhere lately.

Then there was the question of if the humans who’d attacked Leo had been paid to do so? Or was it nothing more than a coincidence?

And now Kit was standing there telling him that Nox had been in the club? That he’d attacked Kit again? But it couldn’t be. Nox was dead. Axel had killed him. Kage had seen the body. Hell, Kage had Nox cremated and took the ashes to Greece. Nox was fucking dead.

“I hear police sirens, Your Majesty,” Leo said, wiping blood off his face. “We need to get out of here.”

“Kit? I need you to trust me and give your keys to Leo so we can vacate the area,” Hudson said.

“Trust you? I don’t know you.” Kit put his hands on his hips and glared at Hudson. “I don’t know these other two dragons. I don’t know where this compound of yours is located. And I’m just supposed to go with you?”

“Would you rather stay here and possibly run across whoever you saw who you thought looked like Nox?” Leo asked.

“Leo,” Hudson warned.

“I don’t think he looked like Nox. I know for a fact he did. Also? Fuck you.” Kit glared at Leo. “I saw him. You didn’t.”

“I’m just saying that it isn’t possible,” Leo said. “He’s dead.”

“And yet I had a conversation with him,” Kit retorted right back.

“Enough,” Hudson snapped. “Kit?” As much as Hudson wanted to throw Kit over his shoulder and leave with him, that would only exacerbate the situation. “Beckett will be at the compound. I’ll arrange for him to be waiting for you. Would that help?”

“I, ah, okay. Yeah. Yeah, it would. Please understand, I’m not trying to be an ass, but I’m kinda at the end of my rope here.” Kit scrubbed his hands over his face, his shoulders slumping. “My head hurts and—”

“Why does your head hurt?” Connie demanded. “Are you hurt?” Connie reached for Kit, but then dropped his hands. “Maybe we should check you out?”

“Again, we really need to go,” Leo interjected.

“I’m fine. Nox used my braid to drag me off the dance floor. And Leo is right about this, at least. We really do need to leave before the cops get here.
