Karl

I was sitting in my apartment one night after work, flipping through N*****x with a

glass of whiskey in my hand, when my phone buzzed on the coffee table.

Picking it up, I let out a soft sigh. It was Marcus, and it was late. It wasn’t like

wasn’t about to give up so easily.

“Is that it?” I asked, maybe a little more bitter than I intended.

He sighed. “Listen, the pack is restless, Karl. Your absence is making people

question your leadership. And your brother waking up? They’re saying maybe

it’s time for the ‘true Alpha’ to come back and lead.”

Anger shot through my veins. “The true Alpha? Are you kidding me? I’ve been
