Chapter Twelve

“Well, that didn’t go to plan,” Shadow said disgustedly as he brushed ash and soot off his new and ridiculously expensive suit. He looked around, surveying the huge clumps of metal and concrete strewn across the block. He tapped his ears, first one side and then the other, trying to alleviate the ringing he had in them. “Report,” he ordered. “Is anyone hurt?”

“A few scrapes and bruises. Nothing that won’t heal with a shift,” Marco came over, combing what looked like splinters out of his bushy beard and hair. “Craven’s in among the wreckage now in his wolf form, trying to sniff out why we missed the stink of gunpowder. We should have smelled that well before the door was even opened.”

“Yeah, well these shits clearly know about us and what we are, which is all the more reason they need eliminating.” Shadow quickly checked the rest of his team. Craven’s dark shape was picking through the wreckage and Dominic was helping Harry to his feet. The man appeared shaken, and he was going to have a wicked bruise on his head. “Harry, I thought you said this informant didn’t know about us being shifters, or who we were.”

“I also told you, I got the information about the asshole we were supposed to meet, secondhand from one of the younger guys in the pack. It was him that set up the appointment, not me. Damn fool idea, if you ask me.” Harry scowled as he brushed concrete dust off his clothing. “If I hadn’t have heard that click the moment dickhead Dominic here opened the door without so much as a sniff of what might be behind it…”

“I know, I know. Thank you for saving our lives.” Shadow rubbed his hand across his face, his fingers coming away covered in dust. “The fact someone was trying to kill us is obvious. This was supposed to be a meet and greet, and then we were going to a ‘buy’ not a fucking execution. But who’s behind this? A human or someone in the pack?”

“You’ve got something else you need to worry about,” Dominic said grimly. “In case you’ve forgotten, you’ve got an alpha mate who’s been grumbling to Talon that his newly claimed mate doesn’t talk to him or let him know what’s going on.”

“He can’t know about this,” Shadow said quickly. He didn’t want to think what Rowan would say if he knew Shadow and his friends had set up a meeting with drug dealers. It was why he’d purposefully blocked their bond and suppressed his wolf before the meeting was even scheduled to start. He needed to come across to the scumbag drug dealer as human as possible.

“And you don’t think he’ll find out?” Marco shook his head. “For fuck’s sake, Shadow, there’s a big assed hole where the road outside Rowan’s gran’s house used to be. He’s not blind.”

“Gas leak?” Shadow shrugged. “It was just fortunate the squatters are gone, and Rowan’s grandmother is providing food for the builders over at the community hall today.
