Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0377

- Knox~

I can see the influence the Dark Phantom pack has had here, how much of his own pack's policies on security that Hector has brought over.

The borders almost seem impenetrable.

But having experienced a raid from human hunters, you can never take your eye off the ball. In this werewolf world, never say never.

I am up early, Ezra meeting me downstairs as we both walk to the borders in time for the night patrol clocking off. I'd managed a few hours sleep, my curiosity running through me like ten cups of coffee replacing the actual need for caffeine this early in the morning. Tired eyes greet me from everywhere, those that have been watching the borders all night and missed out on the party, and those now arriving that enjoyed the party and haven't slept. They have an entire day's shift ahead of them yet.

After this I planned to watch the morning's training session, I want to see what difference is between the warriors here and the warriors at the Dark Phantom pack in their methods.

"Did you have a good time last night?" Ezra makes small talk as we both gaze out on the vastness of surrounding land.

"A great way to be welcomed to a pack. Everyone seems so nice..." Except for the peacock prick but each pack has a black sheep.

"That's nice to hear." He responds, his eyes remaining locked on the view ahead.

"Almost too nice..." I say with scepticism.

"How can it be too nice?" He chuckles but his body shifts and for me is the telltale sign that there is something deeper to this pack.

Something that doesn't show on surface level, not unless you are willing to dig a little deeper.
