"I am no longer alpha of the city, Perry. You know that," he huffs. I love the way he said my name like it's a really bad slur.

"Right, but she's your daughter and I'm not there to see her. I need to speak with you. Directly,"

"When?"

"Can we do it tomorrow at noon? You pick the place. Somewhere not too public. I'm supposed to be dead,"
