Chapter 10 ∣  Don't Fuck With Me

-Maverick 

"Where do you think you're going?" I watched with amusement as the frightened young woman turned down the wrong alley to get away from me. But I knew better, this wasn't some human that was cowering away in fear. No, this one just wanted to get out of sight and play me, biding her time until her mate showed up.

I had noticed a couple of hunters that had passed through this city recently...and it wasn't an accident. I never left any evidence...I knew exactly who was informing them of my whereabouts. It wasn't my fault that I had unknowingly killed one of his pack members...

This time...he'd pay the ultimate price.

Pity he let his mate wander away from him and into my presence.

The thumping of her heart skipped several beats as she glared with fury towards me, her rage rising as something deep within her wanted to take control of the situation. She pushed her long brown hair out of her face, her faded jeans were torn at her left knee when I had startled her, and she had abruptly fallen to the ground. Her light gray tank top was barely concealed by the black and red hoodie she wore zipped up halfway.

Her bright amber eyes emulated the moonlight, growing to a darker shade as she held my gaze. That's when the wind blew her scent towards me, my eyebrows raising at the sudden status that had been revealed of the prey that I had caught.

I chuckled lowly before asking, "Where is your mate, she-wolf? How did you manage to leave his side?"

"I'm not someone to be controlled!" She growled at me.

"Ha! Don't make me laugh," I shook my head and my next comment just irritated her more, "Your kind are possessive as shit. Always claiming: MINE...please, tell me something I don't know."

I was getting the exact reaction I wanted out of her, making her abandon reason and let the anger take control. If she waited, her mate could possibly save her, but now I was infuriating her, causing her judgment to falter.

"I'm not weak..." she responded.

Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night.

"Sure honey," the word made her flinch, "Tell ya what! I'm feeling generous tonight. I'll allow you to shift, this way, when I kill you...I'll know it wasn't because you were being held back."

That sent her over the edge. She growled at me, not defensively, but because she wanted to rip my throat out.

Good.

I smirked, holding my hands up and turning my back on the she-wolf. It didn't take long before I felt a shift in power coming from her location. Turning around, my eyes fell on the form of a white, tawny, and black coated wolf. She snarled at me, her teeth on full display.

"Such a pretty little bitch you are," I rolled my eyes, the words cutting into her deeply as she pushed back on her haunches, readying to leap towards me.

Anticipating her lunge, she jumped on top of me with such force it knocked the wind out of my lungs as my back hit the ground. As soon as I contacted the cool cement, I brought my legs up and kicked her off me and over my head. She crashed into the brick wall, slumping down as the pain hit her hard.

I rolled backward with my momentum, crouching down as I placed one of my palms on the ground and the other beside of me. She shook her head, and at her slightest movement, I noticed a small limp already forming at her left hind leg.

"I thought you weren't weak?" I taunted her. Her growl filled the alley as she took another leap towards me, pulling back at the last second and swiping her front right paw at me. I shot my left leg out, knocking her off all fours and rising to my full height. "That's the best you can do. Your mate must be devastated to have someone like you belong to them."
