Chapter 40

This rundown apartment building had never crossed my path in all my years of living in this city. After I had pulled up to the front of the apartment building, I double-checked the address. Surely this was not the correct place? It looked as if it was one busted window from being declared condemned.

What Omega would live here? They were territorial creatures and knew the value of their dens, yet when I peered around this place, she seemed to live in a dump and I found it hard to believe she lived here.

Even so, the address was the right one. Climbing out of my car, I locked it before walking over to the door and looking at the different buzzers. I looked for hers when I saw one saying management. When I pressed the buzzer, a woman’s voice screeched back at me before I could react.

“Who is it?” she snapped before coughing.

“I’m looking for the owner or manager,” I answered.

“For fuck’s sake.” She said in a snarling tone before hitting the buzzer to let me inside. As I yanked the door open and stepped inside the room, my nose wrinkled in disgust at the foul stench emanating from the place.

The wallpaper was peeling, and the lights flickered when I heard a door creak. A woman emerged from the shadows with a bat in her hand and a scowl on her face. She walked toward me, not looking impressed about having a late-night visitor.

“And what the fuck are you looking for me for?” she snarled before she stopped. She glanced me over before propping her bat on her shoulder.

“I think you’re on the wrong side of the city, alpha,” she says,

“I am here looking for someone, actually. Her name is Zara. Her address is listed here,” the woman groans.
