Chapter 191

Damien’s POV 1

The SUV rolled through increasingly questionable neighborhoods.

Streetlights flickered. Graffiti covered every available surface. The kind of place where smart people didn’t ask questions and cops didn’t

Perfect setting for an underground fight club.

“You sure about this?” I asked Lucas for the third time.

“Absolutely.” He navigated around a pothole that could swallow a small car. “Trust me. This place is legendary.”

“Legendary for what? Hepatitis?”

“For talent.” He shot me a grin. “The best fighters go here. No rules. No regulations. Just pure skill.”

I stared out the window at a homeless man peeing against a dumpster. “Yeah. Real classy.”

“Since when do you care about classy?”

He had a point. I’d spent the last three years hunting rogues in places that made this look like a country club.

identities.

I raised an eyebrow. “Seriously?”

“It’s common here. Lots of people don’t want to be recognized.” He slipped his on. “Besides, you think showing up as the Alpha is a good

idea? These people operate outside pack law for a reason.”

Fair point.

I put on the mask. It felt ridiculous. Like I was headed to a masquerade ball instead of an illegal fight.

I look?” Lucas
