-—- 408.
DANGEROUS ALLY BRENDA Crouched in my wolf form and shielded by the darkness, we slipped through a hole in
the rotting wood of the fishing hut, damp with moisture.
Hiding between two boats, we watched from a few meters away as two men conversed.
One was obviously Thesio, while the other was a tall, elegant man with short black hair.
Everything about him was wrapped in an aura of mystery.
My wolf sniffed the air.
Something felt strange, a suspicion tightening in our chest.
We sharpened our hearing to catch their conversation, "Tneed more of your cheap magic to cover my tracks in
the thefts from Elliot Everharts lands." Thespoke with authority, though he sounded a little nervous.
"Those creatures will die within fifteen minutes of opening the storage units, you know that.
As for the other matter, | cant help you that easily," the man replied coldly.

"You only remain hidden on my lands because | turn a blind eye to your occasional murders and blood-drained
cattle in the fields.
You're useful to me.
The day you stop cooperating, Ill hand you ---- over to the Regent myself, you damn bloodsucker." Our eyes
widened in shock.
T suspected it, but now | had proof.

away, pacing like a caged lion.
The man only stared at him coldly, but | could see the malevolence in his gray eyes.
suddenly, he looked in my direction.
My wolf shrank back further into the shadows, heart pounding wildly.
Thoped he hadnt seen us, but if he was a supernatural being, he might have already sensed us.
Damn it, | had to escape.
"By the way, congratulations on your upcoming marriage.
| suppose you finally managed to claim the woman you coveted," he said out of nowhere.
---- He was talking about me.
What does that matter to you? Focus on my orders," Thesnapped, annoyed.
"T just wanted to know if Id have a new benefactor to answer to, or "You idiot! Brenda will never know about your
existence, just like no one else knows and never will.
Your business is only with me, and remember, the day you stop being useful..." "Remember, Duke Thesio..." the

Sharp fangs gleamed in the darkness.
Thebacked away, fear in his eyes.
"N-no, you wouldnt dare.
| know you need something from my lands..." The Duke tried to feign bravery, but it was clear he felt none.
"Dont be so sure about that." With that last threat, their business was done.
