Chapter 86
2. Race Against Time
LEO. 1
I glance at the clock, wondering why I’m sitting in my car on the outskirts of London, in Brent to be precise. I cock my brow as I look out of the window. The rain is pouring down again and it’s only getting heavier.
“You better have a good reason for this.” I remark coldly through my earpiece, listening to the downpour outside.
“I do, but the rest is up to you.” His voice becomes serious, and I frown, glancing at the box that contains my healing serums.
“Dante… I’m assuming you can’t tell me what’s about to go down? You obviously
want me to save someone.” 18
He sighs. “You’re right, I can’t say.” He sounds frustrated. “I hope I’m right…”
“Me too, I had plans.” I reply.

He had randomly contacted me an hour ago, saying to track a certain number and to follow them but stay hidden. I listened like a fucking pawn in this game he’s playing and I didn’t have my shit with me to check who exactly I’m tracking. 2
“I know, but thanks…”
“Alright, you fucking owe me.” I say.
“That makes two debts…” Dante murmurs.
I cock a brow. I’m not planning on calling on
the first favour.
“Stop counting shit.” 4
He chuckles.
“Sure, I’ll leave you to it, Dad’s calling me to his office. He’s so damn pissed off.” He says.
“Isn’t he always?” I ask, lighting a cigarette.
“Very true… Think today took the cake.” He replies before hanging up, and I glance at the time again.
Come on…
I close my eyes for a moment, running my fingers through my hair when the sound of a gunshot reaches my ears and my eyes flash.
That’s got to be it.
Grabbing the box, I jump out of the car, rushing towards the sound. Several more gunshots sound in the air. They’re using a silencer but the shots are still pretty loud, especially for a werewolf.
