because Phoenix reached over and touched
her hand.
    “No
one has tried yet because of this whole investigation, maybe he’ll get lucky. Out
of all the Omegas out there I’d put money on Gray having the most chance at
survival. I think that the right term is street smart which Gray has in droves.”
    “Still,”
she looked away, her mind in turmoil. Gray was a sitting duck. No wonder he’d
asked Phoenix to take care of her no matter what . She’d wrongly thought
he was referring to her attitude meanwhile…
    The
moment Gray walked in a hush fell over the crowd. It was soon followed by an elevated
noise as the pack whispered behind their hands. Ash noticed a large rugged
looking man step forward, another wolf put out a hand to stop him. The two
exchanged words, the big wolf finally nodded, relaxing back against the wall, his
face still stern . A possible challenger? Again, the crowd fell silent as
Alisha swept in. She might be a wolf but her oval green eyes were all cat. As
beautiful as what they were cold. A shiver crawled up Ash’s spine.
    The
female wolf was wearing an elegant wrap around dress. The fiery red garment
worked well with her olive skin and the neckline dipped low barely containing
lush breasts. Every male eye in the room followed her as she walked.
    “I
don’t know what it is they all see,” Phoenix chuckled, “besides the obvious of
course and if you ask me big boobs are overrated.”
    She
could have kissed him right there and then, but he continued.
    “I
feel sorry for Gray. He should be more afraid of her than of any challenge that
comes his way. I swear she’ll kill him in his sleep.”
    “Do
you think it might be her responsible for these murders?” A lady could hope.
    “What
and break a claw?” Phoenix laughed.
    Although
she found him funny, she could barely muster a smile, which very nearly turned
into a sob when she saw Gray walking over to Alisha’s table. Lordie ,
he’d dished a plate of food for the female wolf. So sweet. No man had ever done
anything so romantic for her. There was something about the gesture she found
touching more so than flowers or chocolates. This was him publically…
    Alisha
knocked the food from his hand. With lightning quick reflexes, Cole caught the plate
before it could crash to the ground but the damage was already done.
    Alisha
stood, eyes blazing. “If you knew anything about me, you’d know I don’t eat
carbs and I don’t care for mongrels. Even if they do imagine themselves to be
the Alpha,” she spoke loud enough for everyone to hear. There were a few
snickers but mostly just silence.
    Gray
pulled back his broad shoulders, narrowed his eyes and took in a deep breath.
“Alisha, I’m warning you. We can do this the easy way or the hard way.”
    “You’re
warning me?” She poked him in the chest with one of her talons.
    Gray
looked down at her finger and growled. Shivers rushed up Ash’s spine at the menacing
sound.
    Alisha
took a small step back. “Why is no one doing anything about this?”
    Was
it Ash’s imagination or had the female wolf glanced over at the big man that
had attempted to walk towards Gray minutes earlier?
    “This”−
she snorted−“joke of a wolf doesn’t deserve to be Alpha.”
    “Three
days Alisha it’s happening so deal with it,” Gray retorted on a snarl.
    “I
would expect no less from a mangy dog.”
    She
turned and walked away, hips swaying, all her composure had returned. It wasn’t
Ash’s imagination when the big man followed her seconds later.
    It
took guts for Gray to square his big shoulders and walk back and dish a plate
of his own. The Alpha’s eyes darted around the clearing, lingering on many of
the males in their prime. He was standing his ground, almost welcoming a
challenge he could sorely afford. Awesome, now she could add guilt to the top
of her list of emotions. Gray would have had to endure ridicule and derogatory
name calling his whole life. For no other reason than his father was a
