Chapter 6
Brandon had just rolled away from his mate, shifting into human form to go take a leak, when the phone rang.
In the three days since he'd beaten the alpha named Greg Sanders, and claimed the alpha's apartment, the phone had not rung once, now its insistent ringing filled the apartment.
Answer the damned thing! he growled, continuing towards the bathroom.
The same night he'd claimed the pack, he'd forcefully taken the girl as his mate.
Her name was Lily, and she was twenty-five years old. She was petite, like Brandon liked, and easily dominated. She hadn't put up any resistance when he used his new found authority to force her to submit to him.
The ring cut off midway through and Brandon heard a tentative, "Hello?" from Lily as he moved the rest of the way to the bathroom.
He heard Lily suck in a breath and reveled in the fear in her voice when she called out, "Brandon, Greg demands to speak to you."
Snarling, Brandon took his time to finish up when he was doing, knowing he would make the other alpha mad, but that was the whole point.
Greg immediately recognized Lily's voice when she answered the phone. She was the youngest shape shifter in the pack, as well as the youngest taken by Dr. Barstow. The fear in her voice now made him even more determined to rip out the other alpha's throat.
"Lily, it's Greg. I want to talk to him!"
"Brandon, Greg demands to speak to you," Lily called out, her voice wavering in fear.
"He won't live to see another sunrise," Greg vowed to her.
Several minutes later, Brandon snarled into the phone, "You must have a death wish, Sanders!"
"For your death! Black Mountains. Midnight tonight. I'm sure you already know the place." A low threatening growl issued from his throat, sealing the challenge.
"I'll enjoy watching you die, as I shred your belly with my teeth!" Brandon smirked before hanging up.
Neck watched Greg anxiously from where he was perched on the edge of the bed. "He going to be there?"
Greg nodded, then added, "Call Grissom, give him the details."
A/N: Sorry for the short chapter. Only one more to go after this, though.
