“Remind me how we let Chase talk us into this?” Miles grumbles as we slide boxes full of Vienna’s belongings into the bed of Chase’s truck.
“Because he’s our alpha,” I say, turning around and leaning back against the tailgate. I retrieve a joint and lighter out of my hoodie pocket, sparking it up.
Miles heaves a sigh and hops up to sit on the tailgate. “Technically, he’s not yet.”
I blow out a plume of smoke, rolling my eyes and passing him the joint. “Okay, because he’s our friend, then.” I side-eye Miles as he takes a puff. “Honestly, I’m more pissed that we’re stuck on moving duty while Chase gets to have all the fun beating the fuck out of that dude.”
Miles coughs out the smoke, chuckling as he hands the J back to me. “You’re sick, you know that?”
I smirk, shrugging, and raise the joint to my lips again.
Chase called us all together this morning to help him out with an issue concerning his girl. He just found out that she’s been avoiding her house because her mom’s loser boyfriend has tried to put his hands on her, so he’s taking it upon himself to dole out a little justice. While the rest of us pack up and load Vienna’s shit, he’s teaching the dickhead a lesson for what he’s done.
“Hey, save some of that for us!” Dare calls as he approaches with a large box clutched in his hands, Alec right on his heels with another. They slide their boxes into the bed of the truck, and I take one last drag of the joint before passing it off to Dare.
“Chase must be getting really serious about this girl, huh?” Alec comments, snatching the joint from his brother’s fingers, mid-inhale.
“Seems that way,” I murmur. “Though either way, someone had to get involved.”
“Could’ve left it for Alpha Brock to handle, though, since this is his territory,” Dare shrugs. “The fact that he’s doing all this himself must mean he’s got it bad.”
Alec passes the joint back to his brother.”
At least he went to Alpha Brock first and looped him in. Can you imagine the mess this would’ve turned into if Chase just charged in there half cocked?”
“Why would it matter if it was the same result?” Miles groans, leaning back on his elbows.
Dare finishes the joint, tossing it onto the ground and stubbing it out with the sole of his shoe. “Politics, man. The alphas don’t step on each other’s toes, that’s why the alliance works so well.”
“Shows that Chase is finally thinking like an alpha,” I muse. “That’s at least a step in the right direction.”
A silver sedan speeds up to the curb, tires squealing, diverting all of our attention. I immediately recognize the car, a chuckle rumbling in my chest when Vienna leaps out of the passenger side and starts charging for the house, a panic-stricken look on her face.
“Oh shit,” I mutter.
“What are the chances that Chase told Vienna that he was doing this today?” Dare asks tentatively.
I scrub a hand over my face. “Judging by her reaction I’d say he forgot to mention it.”

Chase and Vienna emerge from the house looking like Bonnie and Clyde, crimson blood spattering their faces and clothes. Looks like Vienna got her pound of flesh from the man who wronged her,
to admit, Vienna’s growing on me- even more in this moment, as she’s stained in blood yet eerily calm. I recognize that look all too well. There’s nothing quite as satisfying as punishing the deserving with violence.1
