Chapter 31

• Aysel’s POV
• Across the table, a few low-ranked Ironhowl wolves hesitated. Their eyes flicked between Knox Draven and me, weighing danger against greed. One of them finally spoke up, voice cautious, “Knox, you sure you know these two?”
• Knox let out a dark chuckle that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Afraid?” he sneered, his canines glinting under the red lights. “What’s there to be afraid of? One’s a bastard daughter whose father never claimed her, the other’s a stray mutt kicked out of her Pack. You could bed them right here and no one would dare interfere.”
