Chapter 333

AXEL

I drive one of the Rathborn SUVs out to the territory line where

vampires were reportedly spotted lurking around. This particular

territory line happens to run along the edge of the road.

It’s one of the few boundaries that gives way to human territory not claimed by another pack and acts as a kind of human buffer

between wolf territory and vampire territory on the other side of

the county.

Of course, humans have no idea they’re basically a living barrier between two warring supernatural factions, and occasionally they do get caught in the crossfire.

It’s one of the rare times wolves and vampires will work together -cleaning up messes made by rogue wolves or vampires, and covering up our existence from humans who would likely either hunt us or try to use us should our presence ever become public

knowledge.

I find a contingent of Aaron’s guards gathered and pull the SUV over to the side of the road to join them..

As soon as I get out, one of the senior pack members, William,

comes to give me a report.

“Okay, let’s go see what they’re up to. Grab a few guys, but not all of them. We need a show of force, but not a big one that will goad them into acting.”

William nods and then goes off to grab a couple of guys, while I climb back into the SUV.

A few minutes later, we’re rolling down the road, and the group of vampires soon comes into view.

Like William said, they’re camped out–literally.

They’ve got a couple of RVs and they’re parked in one of those
