"I'm a psycho at the bottom of the pack, and you're a warrior built to kill. Isn't it a weird mix?"
He shrugs, a wicked grin plastered to his face.
"I think it's the perfect mix."

Klepto is a werewolf, an...
Quick healing is one of the many benefits of being a lycan.
"Come on." Hyrum demands in my ear, releasing me, then grabbing me by the arm and practically dragging me along behind him.
I don't even try to get him to let go as I stare back at the group of werewolves who look on in frozen horror. My eyes follow the trail of their gazes right to my hands.
My hands are back to their human form, but they are still a gruesome sight.
The knuckles are drenched in bright red blood.
"Where are you taking me?" I ask numbly, still trying to come back to reality. Hyrum shakes his head, his jaw set firmly in a scowl.
"We're going to find your mate."

"Where. Is. She?" I rumble out, holding tight to my sanity like a life preserver.
Hyrum stands on the sidelines as my chaperone of sorts, making sure I don't cross the line again.
The spineless Alpha of the Green Pack stands rigid by the fireplace, another cigar dangling between his fingertips. His Beta, Terrance Thorn, sits in an armchair a few feet away looking a bit nervous.
"I fail to see how it is any of your business how we discipline our own, Mr.Blackmore." Says the Beta, and I'm not surprised.
Alpha Green has yet to acknowledge our presence, he hasn't uttered a single word. His Beta does all the talking.
I clench my jaw and narrow my eyes at the weaklings that are in charge here.
"We have been sent by the Guard to oversee your pack. As far as the Council is concerned, I am in charge of every little minute thing that goes on here in regards to safety." I cock my head to the side and regard them with a dismissive look, "That includes any treatment to pack members that I deem cruel or harmful."
My gaze is drawn to Alpha Green as his expression reveals his sheer fury. His face scrunches up, and his fingers curl tightly on his cigar. There's also a lot of terror behind his eyes. He can't do anything and he knows it.
Though he still refuses to speak at all, his face reveals every thought crossing his hollow mind.
Beta Thorn clears his throat, and once I glance at him I can see his anger waging war his self preservation. Everything in him begs to submit to the higher power threatening him. He fights it hopelessly.
"We aren't treating her unjustly. She stole something from her Alpha and it must be dealt with." He pushes, determination coloring every syllable.
I growl at him, feeling satisfied by his reaction of trying to shrink in on himself, make his figure smaller and less threatening without even realizing he's doing it.
"What did she steal?"
"A pen." Answers the the Beta. I raise my eyebrows as my nostrils flare.
"A pen?"
"A very expensive pen!" He insists, eyes flickering between Hyrum and I. How ridiculous. Imprisoned for taking a pen of all things. I sigh before moving on.
"How long, pray tell, do you plan on keeping her imprisoned?" I question, stepping closer to the now cowering Beta.
There is a long, pregnant silence that seeps into the warm air. I don't once break eye contact with Thorn. I let my intimidation work for me.
"Your silence is an answer enough, Alpha." I spit his title at him, not even bothering to even glance at him. I knew he's still glaring at me.
The wolf may be scared of me and my kind, but he isn't afraid to show how much he despises me.
"Who knows, she could die down there for all I care." Alpha Green sneers, and I watch him take a long draw from his cigar, a white cloud of smoke floating in the air.
Heat floods my limbs again, I swallow the lump in my throat and fist both of my hands at my sides. No, not again. I'm losing my control for another second.
My mate is counting on me.
"There are other ways to correct bad behavior, Alpha Green." I say slowly, drawing out each word with venom. Fear flickers in his eyes as more smoke floods from his nostrils. The heady smell of cigar lingers on every surface in the room.
"Oh really? Do share your ideas."
"Gladly."
