I glared at Bruce, at the way his bald head glistened with sweat under the harsh sun.

And he wasn’t alone.

He had three other guys with him, carrying assorted ropes and harnesses. Were they coming to get Tyler? I doubt it was a rescue mission.

“What do you want with Tyler?” I spat as I planted my feet.

Bruce looked a little pissed off at finding all of us here, with an ugly scowl on his equally ugly mug.

God, those beady eyes were off-putting, reminding of his shark side a little too much.

I just had to remind myself that technically, he was a giant fish. And I was a giant cat.

Come here, tuna fish.

“Well, considering he’s got Rick with him, I think it was some black market shit,” Kev spoke up from behind me.

One of the men with Bruce growled, and I drew in his scent. Some kind of canine, not one I was familiar with.

“They smell like cats too,” the man said, whom I assumed was Rick.

“Two more tigers, one panther,” Bruce growled as his beady eyes flicked around our little group.

Four against six. Surely we had this. Then again, Tyler was not really with it, and I wasn’t sure how the two kangaroo guys were in a fight.

“They’ll fetch a nice figure for the shifter ring,” Rick mused. “We’ll take all of them.”

“Like fuck you will,” I spat. So they were going to sell Tyler off? Seriously? So much for a vacation.

Bruce and the guys dropped all their gear, and I took up a stance as they shot towards us.

I heard Tyler grumble behind me.

“Ah, fuck me,” Lachy groaned.

I dodged the punch from Rick, hating how Bruce barreled past me with the other two.

“C’mon pussy cat, show me what you got,” Rick laughed, and the stench of cigarette smoke hit me as I swept my leg to knock him off balance.

He jumped over my leg, and I had to quickly pull back as he went to punch me once more.

Damn, he knew how to fight.

Shit.

Rick’s dull brown eyes flickered golden, and his teeth elongated as claws protruded from his fingers.

So this little mutt wanted to play this game, huh?

I grinned wickedly as I dodged another punch, and I felt all my senses heighten as I let my tiger out to play.

Time for some fun.

Rick clawed at me, and I grabbed his wrist, yanking him forward and slashing across his face with my own deadly claws.

He cried out as he stumbled back, holding his bloody cheek.

“You bitch!” he snarled.

“Thought I was a pussy cat,” I smirked.

Fuck, it was blazing hot out here.

Rick snarled as he came for me again, but I easily side-stepped him and clawed his back while shoving him to the ground.

I took the chance to check on the others, finding Darcy and Jackson were handling one of the other guys, and Kev was easily knocking some sense into the other canine shifter.

Bruce, on the other hand, was putting up a good fight as he went for Tyler, and Lachy had leaped onto his back and was punching his head.
